Abstract
Reactions of alk-1-en-4-ynes with an excess of the system CH2I2-Et3Al give 1-cyclopropylmethyl-1,2-diethylcyclopropanes. A decrease in the amount of either component of the system to two equivalents results in cyclopropanation of the double bond only. Under such conditions, conjugated enynes yield a complex mixture of products, while conjugated diynes are inert to the system CH2I2-Et3Al.
