Abstract
An efficient oxidative lactonization of 1, 4-diols in acetone is accomplished by the well- defined ruthenium catalyst, whose bifunctional nature underlies the high efficiency as well as unique chemo-and regioselectivity of the reaction which provides a rapid access to γ- butyrolactones including flavor lactones hinokinin, and muricatacin.
