Process for the manufacture of γ-pyrones

A process for the manufacture of 3-hydroxy-2-alkyl-4-pyrones of formula I is provided. STR1 The process comprises cyclizing a compound of formula II, STR2 in acidic medium and hydrolyzing the ester formed thereby to produce compound I. R1 represents methyl or ethyl; R2 represents lower alkanoyl or optionally substituted benzoyl; R3 represents --OH or --NR4 R5 ; and, R4 and R5 may be alike or different and represent lower alkyl. The pyrones of formula I wherein R1 represents methyl or ethyl are known flavorants and odorants.
