Highly efficient formation of halodiazoacetates and their use in stereoselective synthesis of halocyclopropanes.
Halogenated analogues of ethyl diazoacetate are synthesised by a novel and highly efficient procedure and give halocyclopropanes in good to excellent yields when exposed to a Rh(ii) catalyst in the presence of alkenes.
