Abstract
This report presents a method for the synthesis of 2-aroyl cyclobutanones via the reaction of in situ-generated cyclopropanones with acyl sulfonium ylides representing a formal carbene insertion into cyclopropanones. The reaction is highly stereoselective in the case of 2-substituted cyclopropanones, and the cyclobutanones thus obtained are well suited to α-alkylation, offering versatile synthetic applications.
