45. Such a 1,2-hydride shift has been shown to be a significant side-reaction for other α-alkyl azavinyl-substituted rhodium carbenoids. For example, see Refs. [8c and 8e].
46. II and the metal carbenoid substituents have been hypothesized to favor cyclopropanation over 1,2-hydride migration for intermolecular reactions

Similar substitution effects have recently been demonstrated to significantly slow down the divinylcyclopropane rearrangement with various derivatives, by impeding the adoption of the requisite boat conformation needed for the [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement to take place., J.
