A general synthesis of 2- or 3-alkyl substituted 5-hydroxymethyl-δ-valerolactones, precursors of 5-formyl-δ-valerolactones, via lithiated N-allyl(bisdimethylamino)-N-methylphosphoramide carbanions

A convenient strategy is reported for the synthesis of 2- or 3-alkylsubstituted 5-hydroxymethyl and 5-formyl-δ-valerolactones, which are very useful starting blocks for the total synthesis of leukotrienes and lactonic pheromones. It has been found that li
