Asymmetric cyclopropane synthesis currently requires bespoke strategies, methods, substrates and reagents, even when targeting similar compounds. This limits the speed and chemical space available for discovery campaigns. Here we introduce a practical and versatile diazocompound, and we demonstrate its performance in the first unified asymmetric synthesis of functionalized cyclopropanes. We found that the redox-active leaving group in this reagent enhances the reactivity and selectivity of geminal carbene transfer. This effect enabled the asymmetric cyclopropanation of a wide range of olefins including unactivated aliphatic alkenes, enabling the 3-step total synthesis of (–)-dictyopterene A. This unified synthetic approach delivers high enantioselectivities that are independent of the stereoelectronic properties of the functional groups transferred. Our results demonstrate that orthogonally-differentiated diazocompounds are viable and advantageous equivalents of single-carbon chirons<i>.</i>

Approximate rates of the competing syn- and anti-pathways have been determined in t-C4H9OK-t-C4H9OH promoted elimination from two homologous series of tosylates: I-OTs trans-III (R = H, CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, i-C3H7, t-C4H9) and II-OTs trans-IV (R = CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, i-C3H7, t-C4H9). A comparison has been made with rates of the same processes in the (+) elimination of the corresponding trimethylammonium salts I-N(CH3)3 trans-III and (+) II-N(CH3)3 trans-IV. The title effect is demonstrated by a comparative analysis of the rate patterns obtained for the two leaving groups.
