Abstract

Dibromocarbene generated by the cathodic reduction of CBr4 reacts with cyclohexene or trimethylethylene with the formation of dibromocyclopropane derivatives; it can also enter into exchange processes with the chloride ion, which is present in solution, leading to bromochloro- and dichlorocarbenes. The reaction of these with olefins leads to the formation of the corresponding bromochloro- and dichlorocyclopropanes.
