A variety of dimethyl 2-(3-oxo-3-arylpropyl)malonates were electrooxidized in methanol, in the presence of potassium iodide and a base or a neutral salt, to give the corresponding cyclized dimethyl 2-aroylcyclopropane-1,1- dicarboxylates in moderate to good yields. The reactions were carried out under extremely mild reaction conditions, in which the optimal amount of electrolytic current varied from 2.12-2.41 F·mol-1 depending on the substrates. The reaction presumably proceeds via a two-electron oxidation process, in which iodide ions play an important role as the electron carrier between the anode and the substrate.

The trimethylsilylated primary Michael adduct of tricarbomethoxymethane and 2-bromo-3-oxo-3-phenylpropene-1 is shown by 1H NMR experiments and X-ray diffraction studies to possess the structure Z-2.Attempts to prepare the E isomer via the hydrolysis product of Z-2 resulted in, inter alia, an intramolecular alkylation under decarbomethoxylation to give the cyclopropane ester 4.
