A convenient synthetic approach to α,β-unsaturated γ-butyrolactones and α,β-unsaturated γ-butyrolactams is developed. The reaction proceeds via decarboxylative iodination of paraconic acids and β-carboxyl-γ-butyrolactams, employing 1,3-diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DIH) under irradiation, followed by dehydroiodination of β-iodo-γ-butyrolactones and γ-butyrolactams providing good yields of α,β-unsaturated γ-butyrolactones and γ-butyrolactams, which are synthetically useful building blocks in organic synthesis.

The dilithiation of β-tosylated propanoic, 2-methylpropanoic, and butanoic acid 10 with n-butyllithium at -78 deg C leads to the corresponding lithium 3-lithio-3-tosylalkanoates 11.They react with different electrophilic reagents (deuterium oxide, iodine, trimethylchlorosilane, alkyl halides, and acyl chlorides) to give the corresponding 3-substituted tosylated alkanoic acids 12.When carbonyl compounds are allowed to react with intermediates 11 followed by in situ lactonization with trifluoroacetic anhydride and base-promoted elimination α,β-butenolides are obtained.This methodology is applied to the direct synthesis of the rosefuran lactone precursor 14cg, the O-benzyl derivative of (+/-)-umbelactone (14ch), and (+/-)-andirolactone (14ci).The alkylation and acylation reactions of organolithium compounds 11 followed by esterification with hydrogen chloride in methanol and treatment with 1,8-diazabicycloundec-7-ene (DBU) afford α,β- and/or β,γ-unsaturated esters 17 and/or 18 and unsaturated 4-keto esters 19, respectively.The last methodology has been applied to the synthesis of the unsaturated 4-keto ester 19ae precursor of the seco acid of (+/-)-pyrenophorin (22).

Lithium 3-lithio-3-tosylpropanoate prepared by dilithiation of 3-tosylpropanoic acid with n-butyllithium at -78°C, reacts with different electrophiles yielding the expected 3-functionalized tosylated propanoic acids. When carbonyl compounds are used as electrophiles the corresponding α,β-butenolides are prepared directly.
