Abstract

Samarium metal and samarium diiodide have become important tools as selective cyclopropanating agents in organic synthesis due to their high chemo- and stereoselectivity. Therefore, Sm and SmI2are the ideal reagents to prepare cyclopropane derivatives. This tutorial reviewhighlights C–C multiple bond cyclopropanation processes promoted by samarium or samarium diiodide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
