TTN = total turnover number. Major products:

*

cis = (1R,2S);

trans = (1S,2S)

Neat reagents were used without addition of MeOH; reactions were left for 24 h.

§

Isolated yield (1.63 g cyclopropanes). The data represent the averages of triplicate experiments. Standard errors are within 20% of the reported average.
