Cycloaddition of diazomethane to enantiomerically pure 5-alkylidene-1,3-dioxane-4-ones 1 affords spiropyrazolines 2. Upon irradiation these products loose N-2 giving cyclopropanes 3 that are spiro annellated to the 5-position of the 1,3-dioxane-4-one ring. Both transformations are highly stereoselective giving rise to essentially pure enantiomers in quantitative yields.
