Carboalkoxycarbenes, generated photochemically from dimethyl diazomalonate or ethyl diazoacetate, react with allylic alcohols to formbicy clo [3.1. 0] lactones and the insertion products of the carbene into the OH bonds of allylic alcohols. Bicy clo [3.1. 0] lactone is formed by the addition of the carbene to C= C double bond, followed by lactonization with elimination of methanol. Similar addition to the C= C bond and insertion into C—0 bond by carboalkoxycarbenes were also observed in the reaction with allylic ethers. Theproduct of insertion into C—O bond or 0·—H bond was not observed in the photosensitized reaction which is presumed to produce the triplet carbene. It is concluded that the singletstate of carboalkoxycarbene attacks the oxygen atom of the allylic alcohol or ether to give an intermediate oxygen ylide which rearranges to insertion product by 2, 3-sigma-tropic process or to OH insertion product by hydrogen migration.We recently reported a study of the reaction of carbo-alkoxycarbene with aliphatic sulfides1-3 and allylic compounds containing sulfur, oxygen, and halides. 4-7 With an allylic compound such as allyl n-butyl sulfide the major processes were the insertion of the carbo-alkoxycarbene into the C—S bond, and addition of the carbene to the C= C bond. It was proposed that most of these reactions proceed through ylide formation by reaction of the singlet carbenes formed by the direct photolysis of diazocarbonyl compounds, and the inser-tion products were obtained via 2, 3-sigmatropic allylic
