Samarium-Promoted Cyclopropanation of Allylic Alcohols

The use of samarium/mercury amalgam in conjunction with diiodomethane or chloroiodomethane to generate samarium carbenoids for the efficient cyclopropanation of allylic alcohols is discussed.These hydroxyl-directed cyclopropanations occur under mild conditions and allow a wide range of substitution about both the olefin and the carbinol carbon in allylic alcohol substrates.High yields and high diastereoselectivities are observed for many substrates.
Samarium-Promoted, Stereocontrolled Cyclopropanation Reactions

Samarium-based carbenoids have been found to be highly efficient cyclopropanation reagents for allylic alcohol substrates.Hydroxyl-directed cyclopropanations occur under very mild conditions with a high degree of selectivity.
