Abstract
Diazoacetates derived from alpha- or beta- allenic alcohols, prepared using the glyoxylic acid chloride p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone method, u ndergo regioselective intramolecular cyclopropanation in the presence of a copper (II) catalyst in refluxing toluene, leading to synthetical ly useful di- or trisubstituted methylenecyclopropyl lactones. The dia stereoselectivity of the process has been studied. (C) 1997 Elsevier S cience Ltd.
