Abstract

Radical cyclisation of the vinyl ether bromides (2) and (7) in the presence of tri-n-butylstannane produces precursors [ (3) and (8)] to the β-oxy-γ-butyrolactones (6) and (9) in high yields (80°). By contrast, treatment of (2) and (7) with -(dimethylglyoximato)(pyridine)cobalt(I) chloride followed by oxidation of the intermediates (5) and (11) led to the corresponding β-oxy-γ-butyrolactones (4) and (12) respectively. ... All new compounds showed satisfactory spectral data and ...
