The results of the reaction between ethyl diazoacetate and carbonyl compounds catalysed by lanthanide triflates are described. Aldehydes, and α-unsubstituted and α-monosubstituted cyclohexanones react to give the selective formation of α,β-epoxy esters (glycidic esters), whereas other ketones are unreactive.
