Abstract
A method for synthesizing optically active trans, trans-configurated α, β, γ-substituted γ- lactones is presented. Asymmetric hydroxylation of ester 8 with AD mix α (AD mix β) and subsequent dehydration provided butenolide S-6 (R-6). Conjugate addition of Li2 (Me2PhSi) 2Cu (CN) to S-6 followed by alkylation of the resulting enolate led to the stereopure silyllactones 9–11. They furnished the title compounds after oxidative removal ...
