Abstract
The copper(I) complex (FcNN)Cu(OTf) (1; FcNN = N,N'-ethylenebis[(ferro cenylmethylene)amine] catalyzes reactions of ethyl diazoacetate with a lkenes to form cyclopropanes in high yield. The same complex also cata lyzes nitrene transfer from PhI=NTs to alkenes to produce aziridines i n high yield.
