Abstract Electrolysis of active methylene compounds at a Pt cathode in MeCN in the presence of vicinal dihaloalkanes leads to cyclopropane derivatives in yields up to 90%. In the cases of CH-acids with lowp K a it is expedient to apply more active dihaloalkanes, while for CH-acids with higherp K a the desired product yields may be raised using electrogenerated bases.
