Abstract
Isopropylidenetriphenylphosphorane allows the cyclopropanation of alph a,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds including alpha,beta-unsaturated esters, -ketones, -amides and -acid chlorides. Concomitant reaction o n the carbonyl group of methyl cinnamates and cinnamoyl chlorides lead ing to cyclopropyl ketones has been observed.
