Experimental analysis reveals key transition states in cyclopropanation of enals, suggesting pathways for stereoselection.
Here is the concluding part of my exploration of a recently published laboratory experiment for undergraduate students. I had previously outlined a possible mechanistic route, identifying TS3 (below) as the first transition state in which C-C bond formation creates two chiral centres.
