摘要

The a-methylene-y-butyrolactone structural unit is a struc- tural feature common to a large number of biologically important sesquiterpenes and the development of synthetic routes to this entity has commanded considerable attention. However, many of the methods used have the disadvantage of either low yields or being multi-step, and often a further drawback has been their inapplicability to 6-lactones.2 Herein we report a novel two-step reaction sequence for the insertion of ...
