A New Method for the Lactonization of [omega]-Hydroxy Carboxylic Acids with Di-2-thienyl Carbonate by the Promotion of DMAP and Iodine

Successive reactions of ω-hydroxycarboxylic acids with an equimolar amount of di-2-thienyl carbonate (2-DTC) in the presence of a catalytic amount of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) followed by an addition of 2-4 equimolar amounts of iodine afforded the corresponding lactones in good to high yields...
