Lactone Synthesis Based on Atom Transfer Carbonylation

Five- to seven-membered lactones were prepared from ω-hydroxyalkyl iodides and CO by atom transfer carbonylation without the need for transition metal catalysts. The reaction proceeds via a hybrid radical/ionic mechanism in which the intramolecular alcoholysis of an ω-hydroxyacyl iodide, arising fro...

Zusammenfassung:Five- to seven-membered lactones were prepared from ω-hydroxyalkyl iodides and CO by atom transfer carbonylation without the need for transition metal catalysts. The reaction proceeds via a hybrid radical/ionic mechanism in which the intramolecular alcoholysis of an ω-hydroxyacyl iodide, arising from atom transfer carbonylation, leads to the lactone.
