Enantioselective Lactonization of 3,3,6-Trimethyl-4(E)-heptenoic Acid Esters
Studies on the use of lactonization in the asymmetric synthesis of 6,6-dimethyl-4-isopropyl-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one were described. An asymmetrically induced lactonization reaction was performed on 3,3,6-trimethyl-4(E)-heptenoic acid esters (1) and enantiomerically pure alcohols such as (−)-m...
