A method to inhibit the ethylene response in plants with cyclopropene compounds by first generating stable cyclopropane precursor compounds and then converting these compounds to the gaseous cyclopropene antagonist compound by use of a reducing or nucleophilic agent.
Neighbouring-group influence on the ring opening of 2-aryloxymethyl-1,1,2-tribromocyclopropanes under phase-transfer conditions

When a number of 2-aryloxymethyl-1,1,2-tribromocyclopropanes were treated with sodium hydroxide and ethanol under phase-transfer conditions, ring opening occurred to give mixtures of acetylenic diethyl acetals and ketals in better than 80% total isolated yield. The acetylenic diethyl ketals predominated significantly and were, in some cases, almost the exclusive product. It is argued that this ketal selectivity is in part caused by hydrogen bonding between ethanol and the aryloxy group.
