Title: A new stereospecific route to α-alkylidene γ-lactones
Abstract: Hydrocyanation of a range of protected β-hydroxyalkynes give unsaturated nitriles which can be cyclised to α-alkylidene γ-lactones and in most cases the regioselectivity of hydrocyanation can be controlled giving the desired cyanoalkenes with stereospecific formation of the E-isomer.
