FACILE SYNTHESIS OF 3,4-DIHYDRO-4,4-DIMETHYL-2H-PYRAN-2-ONE VIA PALLADIUM CATALYZED TERMINAL OXIDATION OF 3,3-DIMETHYL-4-PENTENOATES

Selective terminal oxidation of 3,3-dimethyl-4-pentenoates does occur under chloride-free Wacker conditions in AcOH to give 5-acetoxy-3,3-dimethyl-4-pentenoates (7) and their analogues (2,8) in good yields.Successive cyclization of 7 and 8 at vapor phase pyrolysis on SiO2 affords 3,4-dihydro-4,4-dimethyl-2H-pyran-2-one (1).
