Photochemically induced free-radical cyclisation of iodo acetylenic esters provides low yields of mixtures from which both (E)- and (Z)-iodoalkylidene lactones may be isolated.However, photoisomerisation of (E)-iodoalkylidene lactones, which have previously been obtained in good yields by dibenzoyl peroxide induced cyclisation of iodo acetylenic esters, provides (E)/(Z)-mixtures from which the previously inaccessible (Z)-isomers may be isolated by chromatography.Also reported is a collection of IR, UV and NMR spectral data, all of which provide useful information relating to the stereochemistry of the iodoalkylidene lactones.A comparison of the cryctal structures of the (E)- and (Z)-isomers of a trimehylsilyl iodomethylene lactone is also included.
INTRAMOLECULAR CYCLIZATION OF ALLYLIC PROPIOLATES MEDIATED BY THE ADDITION OF STANNYL RADICALS: A NEW SYNTHETIC ROUTE TO α-METHYLENE-γ-BUTYROLACTONES

Allylic propiolates react with tributyl- or triphenylstannane to yield α-(stannyl)methylene-γ-butyrolactones. α-Methylene-γ-butyrolactones are easily prepared by destannylation.
