Catalytic asymmetric cyclopropanation of electron deficient alkenes mediated by chiral sulfides

Abstract

Catalytic asymmetric cylopropanation of enones has been achieved using diazo compounds, catalytic quantities of a metal catalyst and a camphor-derived thioacetal; this sulfide shows exceptionally high levels of enantioselectivity.
