Abstract: | A novel C 3-symmetric arsine was employed in the one-pot cyclopropanation of olefins with carbonyl-stabilized arsonium ylides formed in situ from phenacyl bromide in the presence of NaHCO3. This new arsine demonstrates good stereoselectivity and activity in the one-pot cyclopropanation of arylidenemalononitrile. Supplementary materials are available for this article.
