Abstract

A general method for the synthesis of y-and &lactones through the intramolecular addition of alkoxycarbonyl radicals, formed by reaction of Se-phenylselenocarbonates with n-Bu, SnH, onto carbon-carbon multiple bonds is described. This free-radical cyclization is characterized by high regioselectivity favoring exo addition and by a high ratio of cyclization to reduction. Monocyclic, fused bicyclic, and spirocyclic lactones are formed in good to ...
