Abstract
Acetylmethyltriphenylarsonium bromide 6 in the presence of potassium carbon ate and trace water reacted with 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxa-5-substituted-benzy lidene-4,6-dione 2 at room temperature to give cyclopropane derivatives cis -1-acetyl-2-aryl-6,6-dimethyl-5,7-dioxo-spiro-[2,5]-4,8-octadiones 7 (X=p-C H3, p-Cl, H, p-NO2) or beta,gamma -trans-beta -acetyl-gamma -aryl-gamma -bu tyrolactones 8 (X=p-CH3O, p-N(CH3)(2), 3',4'-OCH2O-) with good yield and hi gh stereoselectivity.
