A new esterification reaction has been developed utilizing a (methylthio)methyl (MTM) group as an activable protecting group of carbocyclic acid.A total synthesis of a 12-membered pyrrolizidine alkaloid, (+/-)-integerrimine (1), has been achieved by applying the above method to formation of the macrocyclic bislactone skeleton.The acid anhydride (16b) of the integerrinecic acid derivative was coupled with lithium alkoxide of retronecine silyl ether (5b) in the presence of DMAP to afford the α,β-unsaturated ester.Oxidation of the MTM group afforded an active (methylsulfonyl)methyl ester (28b), which cyclized to give the macrocyclic bislactone 29.

Various carboxylic esters or carboxamides are prepared in good yields under nearly neutral conditions from equimolar amounts of free carboxylic acids and alcohols or amines, respectively, by the use of 1,1'-dimethylstannocene as a condensing reagent.
