Abstract

The intramolecular cyclopropanation of various trans-allylic diazoacetates and alkenyl diazoketones has been achieved with excellent enantioselectivities of up to 98% ee and in quantitative yields by using a water-soluble ruthenium(II)/hydroxymethyl(phenyl)oxazoline catalyst in a water/ether biphasic medium. The catalyst could be reused at least five times. © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
