Abstract

1,3‐Dipolar cycloadditions of exocyclic α,β‐unsaturated ketones 1‐22 with diazomethane afforded spiro‐1‐pyrazolines 23‐44 in a diastereospecific reaction. The structure and stereochemistry of each compound synthesised has been elucidated by nmr spectroscopic measurements and other analytical techniques. It has been proven that the stereochemistry of the starting α,β‐enones was retained in the course of these cycloadditions.
