The dichlorocarbene generation reaction from CHCl3 and solid KOH in CH2Cl2 was catalyzed by the p-t-butylcalix[6]arene derivative 1 which bears six 3,6,9-trioxadecyl substituents on the phenolic oxygens. Dichlorocarbene generated by this method reacted efficiently with alkenes and amides to give dichlorocyclopropane derivatives and nitriles, respectively, in high yields. The reaction with alkadiene having isolated double bonds gave mixtures of the mono- and bis-dichlorocarbene adducts, but the monoadduct formation always predominated. The catalytic action of the calixarene and the reactivity features of dichlorocarbene generated by the above procedure are discussed on the basis of kinetic measurements. They are also compared with those of the 18-crown-6-catalyzed reactions.
Reflux of trimethylsilyl trichloroacetate and an alkene with the addition of a phase transfer catalyst (4 mol.%) and solid, dry potassium fluoride in an inert nonpolar solvent (toluene, chloroform, or dichloromethane) leads to dichloro- carbene adducts. This is a non-basic mild method, which can easily be carried out.

The dichlorocarbene species generated from chloroform and aqueous sodium hydroxide in the presence of tertiary amines exhibits a high selectivity in the product-distribution upon its addition to olefins containing multiple double bonds; the monoadducts was produced in preference to the bisadducts. The selectivity increases with decrease in the reactivity of the dichlorocarbene species.
