The first examples of metal phosphonates based on 2-phenyl-2-(phosphonomethylamino)acetic acid (ppaH3) are reported, namely, Co3(ppa)2(4,4’-bpy)2(H2O)4•2H2O (1) and Ni4(ppaH)4(4,4’-bpy)2(H2O)2 (2)....
View ArticleSynergistic effect of additives on cyclopropanation of olefins
An efficient cyclopropanation of olefins with Zn(CH2I)2, a catalytic amount of CCl3CO2H, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane at room temperature is discribed. A wide variety of olefins, including acid-sensitive...
