The treatment of various 1,3-dihalides including the ones bearing an ester group with the titanocene(II) species produced cyclopropanes in good yields. The reaction of dihalides possessing two secondary halogens proceeded stereoselectively to afford trans
Selective formation of alkenes from trimethylsilylmethyl ketones and from acylsilanes

Trimethylsilylmethyl ketones, readily available from acyl chlorides, undergo a Reformatsky-Peterson reaction sequence to give 3-alkenoates regioselectively.Acylsilanes, however, react with either zinc ester enolates or trimethylsilylmethylmagnesium chloride to give the corresponding tertiary alcohols which, depending on their structure, spontaneously undergo either elimination or a Brook rearrangement-Peterson olefination sequence.These reactions allow the selective formation of vinylsilanes.
