Abstract: | Some reactions of phthalimide-containing keto-stabilized sulfur ylides have been investigated. It was established that in addition to the formation of the usual products for keto-stabilized sulfur ylides, the reaction with acrylonitrile is accompanied by a rearrangement and leads to 1,1-disubstituted cyclopropanes.Institute of Chemistry, Bashkir Science Center, Urals Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, 450054 Ufa.
