Nucleo-Palladation-Triggering Alkene Functionalization: A Route to γ-Lactones

An unprecedented strategy for the highly effective synthesis of γ-lactones from homoallylic alcohols was achieved by palladium catalysis in one step. The protocol affords aryl, alkyl, and spiro γ-lactones directly from readily available homoallylic alcohols in good yields with excellent functional group tolerance and high chemoselectivity under mild conditions.

MnO2-promoted carboesterification of alkenes with anhydrides: A facile approach to γ-lactones

An efficient carboesterification of alkenes with anhydrides promoted by MnO2 has been developed to afford functionalized γ-lactones in good to excellent yields. This method shows a broad substrate scope and provides a valuable and convenient synthetic tool for constructing γ-lactones.
