Gallium-catalyzed reductive lactonization of γ-keto acids with a hydrosilane

Abstract

Described herein is the GaCl3-catalyzed lactonization of γ-keto carboxylic acids in the presence of PhSiH3 leading to the direct preparation of γ-lactone derivatives. This reducing system showed a relatively wide functional group tolerance.
