Abstract
Iodolactonization of 4,5-disubstituted 2-(trimethylsilylmethyl)- and 2-meth yl-penta-2,4-dienoic acids was studied. The latter afforded the correspondi ng iodolactone in good yield by treatment with I-2 in MeCN. Iodolactone was also obtained by treatment with I-2/NaHCO3/CHCl3/H2O in the presence of ce rium(IV) salt as an additive. It was found that protolactonization proceeds by the aid of the trimethylsilyl group, while it prevents iodolactonizatio n.
