Popis: | Formal carbene dimerization is a convergent method for the synthesis of alkenes. Herein, we report a Ru(II)-catalyzed carbene dimerization of cyclopropenes and diazo compounds. The yields are up to 97% and the stereoselectivity are up to >20:1. Mechanistically, it has been experimentally demonstrated that the catalyst reacts with cyclopropene first to generate a Ru(II)–carbene species, which is attacked by nucleophilic diazo substrate, followed by dinitrogen extrusion to form the double bond. |
