Treatment of 2-halodecanal and potassium ethyl malonate under phase-transfer catalysis condition gave ethyl tetrahydro-4-(ethoxycarbonyl)-2-octyl-5-oxo-3-furanacetate in one step.This compound was successfully converted into dihydro-4-octylfurofuran-2,6(3H,4H)-dione, which is an important key intermediate for the synthesis of dl-avenaciolide.

A synthetic method using tungsten-π-allyl compounds is developed for total syntheses of natural bislactones including (+)-dihydrocanadensaolide (2), (±)-avenociolide (3), and (±)-isoavenociolide (4). Syntheses of these natural compounds are based on a com

Reduction of 3-chloro-4-oxoalkanoates 5 with bakers' yeast gave (4S)-3-chloro-4-hydroxyalkanoates, which were hydrolyzed and dehydrochlorinated to give (γS)-alkylbutenolides with >96% ee. Reduction of 5 with NaBH4 gave syn-3-chloro-4-hydroxyalkanoate 6. Asymmetric hydrolysis of syn-4-chloro-3-hydroxyalkanoate (±)-10 with lipase afforded (3R,4R)-6 and (3S,4S)-10 with high optical purities. Hydrolysis and dehydrochlorination of (3R,4R)-6 gave (γA)-alkylbutenolides with >85% ee. Total syntheses of (3aS,6aS)-ethisolide, whisky lactone, and (-)-avenaciolide from these butenolides are described.
