Treatment of 2-propenyl chloroacetate with catalytic amount of RhCl(PPh3)3 in boiling tetrahydrofuran gave 2-methylene-4-pentenyl chloroacetate, a product which is derived via a formal insertion of allene unit into the C-O bond of the starting chloroacetate, with concomitant formation of chloroacetic acid.
