A systematic study has been conducted of the catalytic reaction of diazomethane with cyclic and polycyclic unsaturated hydrocarbons, conjugated dienes, as well as with a series of functionalized unsaturated conpounds.The feasibility of using transition metal, nontransition metal, and rare earth metal compounds of, for example, Co, Ni, Zr, Rh, and Dy, has been demonstrated for the first time.It has also been established that Pd(acac)2 has very high activity as a catalyst for the cyclopropanation of terminal and endocyclic double bonds by diazomethane, and that its activity is reduced upon the introduction of n-donor ligands or in the presence of strong polar solvents.

In the presence of molybdenum hexacarbonyl or molybdenum(II) acetate, ethyl diazoacetate and α-diazoacetophenone react with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and nitriles to form derivative cyclopropane and vinyl CH insertion products.In the absence of these promoters or in the presence of catalytic amounts of pyridine, 2-pyrazolines are the major or sole reaction products.Kinetic investigations for reactions between ethyl diazoacetate and α,β-unsaturated esters and nitriles in the presence of Mo(CO)6, Mo2(OAc)4, or pyridine demonstrate the absence of any significant influence by these molybdenum promoters or pyridine on the rates and activation parameters for ethyl diazoacetate decomposition.Representative 1-pyrazolines have been synthesized and observed to undergo dinitrogen extrusion without apparent influence by molybdenum promoters.The composite results suggest that these molybdenum promoted reactions occur by dipolar cycloaddition of diazocarbonyl compounds to α,β-unsaturated systems and that the derivative 1-pyrazoline intermediates undergo dinitrogen extrusion to form the observed cyclopropane and vinyl CH insertion products.Molybdenum promoters function to inhibit competitive tautomerization of the initially formed cycloaddition products.The relative effectiveness of a broad selection of transition-metal compounds in directing reactions between ethyl diazoacetate and α,β-unsaturated esters and nitriles to cyclopropane products is described.The cycloaddition / dinitrogen extrusion pathway is presented as a viable mechanism for cyclopropanation of α,β-unsaturated systems by diazo compounds, even for reactions performed in the presence of traditional cyclopropanation catalysts.
