Abstract
Abstract The mechanism of copper (I)-catalyzed olefin cyclopropanation with diazomethanes has been studied at the BP86/AE1 level of density-functional theory. For the model system Cu (diazabutadiene)++ ethene+ diazomethane, copper carbene complexes are confirmed as viable intermediates, with rate-determining barriers of the order of 25 kcal/mol (energies including zero-point corrections) or 14 kcal/mol (when entropic contributions are included) ...
