Abstract: The reaction of dichlorocarbene with tetraphenylcyclone (1) resulted in carbon monoxide and gem-dichloro compound (3) together with dichlorooxirane (4) and adduct (5).The aromatic structure of carbonyl Ylide and its twist geometry led to deoxygenation to be the main reaction pathway.

Key words: Halocarbene, Carbonyl Ylide, Deoxygenation
