Abstract
A one-pot γ-lactonization of homopropargyl alcohols via an alkyne deprotonation/boronation/oxidation sequence has been developed. Oxidation of the generated alkynyl boronate affords the corresponding ketene intermediate, which is trapped by the adjacent hydroxy group to furnish the γ-lactone. We have optimized the conditions as well as examined the substrate scope and synthetic applications of this efficient one-pot lactonization.
