In this paper, it is reported that the efficient iodolactonization of 4,5-allenoic acid with I2 in cyclohexane in the presence or absence of K2CO3 afforded 5-(1′-iodo-1′(Z)-alkenyl)-4, 5-dihydro-2(3H)-furanones highly stereo-selectively. However, the reaction of axially optically active 4,5-allenoic acids (R)-(-)-5a and (R)-(-)-5b with I2 afforded the corresponding products with a serious loss of chirality. This problem was solved by conducting the iodolactonization with N-iodosuccinimide in CH2Cl2 in the presence of Cs 2CO3; however, the Z/E selectivity is somewhat lower. The pure optically active Z products were prepared by subsequent kinetic resolution with Sonogashira coupling. The reaction of thesubstrates with a substituent at the 3-position of the starting 4,5-allenoic acids afforded the trans-4,5-disubstituted γ-butyrolactones as the only products. The reaction of the 4,5-allenoic acids (S)-(+)-11, (R)-(-)-11, and (S)-(+)-lm with a center chirality at the 3-position afforded the trans products with very high enantiopurity and up to 98:2 Z/E selectivity regardless of the axial chirality of the allene moiety.

Two pathways have been evaluated to account for the I2-mediated cyclisation of the allenic sulfonamides 1a-e based on (i) the steric demands of the allenic unit, and (ii) the ambident reactivity of the sulfonamide anion.The 1,3-disubstituted allenic sulfo
