Summary

  1. 1.

    The reactivity of trialkylsilylcyclopropanes when reacted with mercuric acetate obeys the same rules as apply to the reactivity of trialkylalkenylsilanes in ionic addition reactions, i.e., the trialkylsilylcyclopropanes, containing a silicon atom in the β-position to the cyclopropane ring, are much more reactive than are the trialkylsilylcyclopropanes that have the silicon atom in the α-position to the ring.

     
  2. 2.

    The stability of the three-membered ring is increased substantially by introducing a carbethoxy group into the molecule of the cyclopropane compound.

     
  3. 3.

    The length of heating has little effect on the activity of the cyclopropane compound when reacted with mercuric acetate.
