The application of a zinc carbenoid-mediated chain-extension reaction to a functionalized peptide isostere is reported. The cleavage site of human CVM protease was utilized as a target for testing the synthetic methodology. The utility of this chain-exten

(Chemical Equation Presented) The generation of substituted γ-lactones can be accomplished through application of a tandem chain extension-aldol reaction, followed by CAN-mediated oxidative cleavage of the aldol product. The oxidative cleavage requires the intermediacy of a hemiketal and the presence of an α-heteroatom. Formation of the γ-lactone through the oxidative cleavage is used to assign stereochemistry of the aldol reaction and as the final step in a short synthesis of members of the phaseolinic acid family of natural products.
