Process for epimerization at C6 of 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one

An external bond at the 6-position of a 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one, as found in the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors, is readily epimerized by treating an amide of the corresponding hydroxy acid with a sulfonyl chloride reagent.
