The cyclopropanation of unsaturated ketones in 'super-basic' media
Shostakovsky,Carlson

A modified cyclopropanation of unsaturated ketones using dimethyloxosulfonium methide in 'super basic' media generates exclusively the trans products in high yields (86-95%).
A novel route to cyclopropyl ketones, aldehydes, and carboxylic acids
Rodriques, Karen E.
, p. 1275 - 1278 (2007/10/02)
Cyclopropanation of α,β-unsaturated N-methoxy-N-methyl amides provided the cyclopropyl amides in far superior yields to those obtained with the corresponding ketones. The desired ketones are then readily accessible by the addition of organometallic reagents. Access to a variety functional groups, including aldehydes and carboxylic acids, is also described.
