The generation of phenylhalocarbenes in the presence of varying quantities of halide ions and electron-poor alkenes affords concurrent cyclopropanation of the alkenes by an equilibrating mixture of phenylhalocarbenes and phenylhalomethide carbanions, which permits the smooth modulation of selectivity between electron-poor alkenes and electron-richalkenes, a feature of potential synthetic utility.
