Abstract

A series of enantiomerically pure (Z)-(−)-4-(1′-alkyloxy-1′-alkyloxycarbonyl-methylidene)-5(R)-[(1R)-menthyloxy]-γ-butyrolactones were synthesized and characterized in good to excellent yields via O-alkylation of (4R,5R)-(−)-4-ethoxyoxalyl-5-[(1R)-menthyloxy]-γ-butyrolactone with alkyl halides in the presence of K2CO3 in acetone at room temperature.
