Abstract: | The Mitsunobu reaction occurs typically with inversion of configuration in secondary alcohol derivatives. In this paper, a mechanistic explanation for lactonizations of hindered alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions with retention is proposed. This involves the intermediacy of an acyloxyphosphonium salt followed by acyl transfer to the alcohol. |
