[reaction: see text] The rhodium(I)-catalyzed methylenation of ketones using trimethylsilyldiazomethane proceeds to give the corresponding alkenes in good yields (60-97%). The use of an excess of 2-propanol and 1,4-dioxane as a solvent were instrumental to obtain the desired alkenes in high yields. Superior results were achieved with the rhodium(I)-catalyzed methylenation in comparison with the standard
Terminal alkenes have been efficiently prepared via a rhodium-catalyzed olefination procedure using Wilkinson’s catalyst in the presence of triphenylphosphine, 2-propanol and trimethylsilyldiazomethane. Optimized reaction conditions are described for aldehydes and ketones, as well as alternative work up procedures.

hydroformylation syn to the functional group, which would suggest a directing effect. However, hydroformylation of 3-methylene-1-cyclohexanol derivatives occurs on the face opposite to the directing group in the major isomer. These data, in addition to the results of hydroformylation of 1-methyl-2-methylenecyclohexane, suggest that inherent conformational preferences are of significant importance in determining
