Abstract

Abstract An efficient and general synthetic method for various 2-mono-and 2, 6-disubstituted γ-pyrones has been developed. This utilizes the C-acylation (70–85%) of β-methoxy-α, β- enone lithium enolates 4 by acid chlorides 3 followed by the acid-catalyzed cyclization (> 80%) of the resulting enols 5 to γ-pyrones 6.
