Allylation of methylenecyclopropanes with allylindium reagents

Methylenecyclopropanes carrying a hydroxymethyl group at the ring underwent stereoselective allylindation with allylindium sesquiiodide to afford the allylated products, in which the allyl group was delivered at the external sp 2 carbon via cyclopropylindium intermediates. The reaction of ethyl 2-cy...

Summary:Methylenecyclopropanes carrying a hydroxymethyl group at the ring underwent stereoselective allylindation with allylindium sesquiiodide to afford the allylated products, in which the allyl group was delivered at the external sp 2 carbon via cyclopropylindium intermediates. The reaction of ethyl 2-cyclopropylideneacetate and triallylindium afforded the 1,4-adduct along with dimeric products.
