Too stable to react...? Cyclopropenation is favored over benzylic C- insertion. Cyclopropenation precede cyclopropanation. This substrate reacts with styrene and gives 90% ee. Then the failure may be due to the instability of the product. Table Electron rich alkynes react faster than normal alkyne.
