Organocatalytic cyclopropanation of an enal: (computational) product stereochemical assignments.

Sunday, August 26th, 2018

In the previous post, I investigated the mechanism of cyclopropanation of an enal using a benzylic chloride using a quantum chemistry based procedure. Here I take a look at the NMR spectra of the resulting cyclopropane products, with an evaluation of the original stereochemical assignments.[cite]10.1021/acs.jchemed.7b00566[/cite]
