Pyrolysis of bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)bromonium ylides in various olefins results in highly stereospecific formation of cyclopropanes via unimolecular decomposition. Product analysis, kinetic study, substituent effects, and theoretical study revealed the generation of singlet bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)carbenes stabilized by intramolecular coordination of sulfonyl oxygen.
