Vitamin B(12) derivatives were found for the first time to be general and efficient catalysts for asymmetric cyclopropanation of alkenes with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA). Among several common derivatives, aquocobalamin (B(12a)) was shown to be the most effective catalyst for a

The performance of recently reported highly cis-diastereoselective Rh(I) cyclopropanation catalysts has been significantly improved by a systematic study of different reaction parameters (catalyst activation, solvent, temperature, stoichiometry). The catalyst efficiency and diastereoselectivity were enhanced by changing the activating agent from

Copper-catalyzed [4 + 1] cycloaddition reaction of alpha,beta-acetylenic ketones with alpha-diazo esters offers an efficient, direct route to highly substituted furans. The reaction conditions and the scope of the process are examined, and a possible mechanism is proposed.

Magnesium-catalyzed enantioselective aldol between ethyl diazoacetate and aromatic, aliphatic, and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes affords alpha-diazo-beta-hydroxy-esters in high enantioselectivities. Aldol adducts resulting from this asymmetric transformation are versatile intermediates toward the synthesis of several ester containing chiral building blocks.

Polymers, especially copolymers, are highly complex samples and, therefore, require various setups for their thorough characterization. In this work, one- and two-dimensional chromatographic approaches were applied to characterize two homopolymers and two dissimilar copolymers prepared by rhodium-mediated carbene polymerization using
