Abstract
Ethylidine iodide has recently become of considerable importance for use as a synthetic reagent. This is due to the discovery by Furukawa and coworkers1 that ethylidine iodide can be used, via reaction with diethylzinc, for addition of ethylidine groups onto the double bonds of olefins to yield the corresponding methyl substituted cyclopropanes.2Keywords
