It was confirmed that lanthanum metal was an efficient reagent for the reductive dehalogenation of gem-dihaloalkanes. When gem-dihaloalkanes were allowed to react with lanthanum metal in the presence of alkenes, cyclopropanation of the alkenes occurred under mild conditions giving the corresponding cyclopropanes in moderate to good yields.
