Abstract

The oxidation of non-phenolic alkanoic acid derivatives to oxygen heterocycles was investigated; a new oxidative route to dienone lactones has been developed using a combination of hypervalent iodine (III) reagent, phenyliodine (III) bis (trifluoroacetate)(PIFA), and heteropoly acid (HPA).
