Reaktionsschritte

A solution of CH2Cl2 (12.5 mL), styrene (12 5 mL) and ethyl diazoacetate (0.25 g, 2.19 mmol) was added slowly dropwise at ambient temperature to a stirred slurry of Rh-PFIEP[SO3H] (1.0 g, 0.387 mmol, prepared as described above), styrene (2.5 mL) and CH2Cl2 (2.5 mL). Gas evolution ceased about 1 hour after the addition of the ethyl diazoacetate solution was complete. The resulting slurry was stirred for 24 hours and then allowed to settle. The solution was removed, the resulting resin was washed with 3.0 mL of CH2Cl2. The solution and the wash were combined and analyzed for cyclopropane products. Yield (based on ethyl diazoacetate): 73.9%.
