Abstract

A one-pot triphenylarsine-catalyzed synthesis of trans-cyclopropane derivatives is achieved by means of the reaction between acetylenic esters and C–H acids in the presence of triphenylarsine. This procedure is simple and proceeds under mild reaction conditions. Its success depends on the choice of solvent, temperature and C–H acid used.
