Abstract
-(Z)-Halomethylene-beta-vinyl-gamma-butyrolactones and methylene-beta- (2'-alkanonyl)-gamma-butyrolactones were obtained highly stereoselecti vely from Pd(II)-catalyzed cyclization of 4'-hydroxy-2-alkenyl 2-alkyn oates. A mechanism involving halopalladation, intramolecular insertion , beta-OH elimination or beta-H elimination is discussed.
