Abstract/OtherAbstract:
[reaction; see text] A general and practical procedure for the highly diastereoselective preparation of either the cis- or trans-beta,gamma-disubstituted-gamma-butyrolactones by appropriate choice of Lewis or Bronsted acid catalysts during crotylboration or lactonization is reported. The cis-stereochemistry of the Z-crotylboration product can be inverted with strong acids during lactonization. A carbocation mechanism and catalytic cycle has been proposed.
