Abstract

A practical protecting group free synthesis of Hagen's gland lactones 1 and 2 is accomplished in four steps and 25.6 and 37.4% overall yields, respectively. The strategy relies on a one-pot conversion of D-glucono-δ-lactone to β-hydroxy-γ-vinyl-γ-lactone, cross-metathesis, and iodocyclization-deiodinization as key steps.
