Abstract

We have developed a convenient protocol for functionalization of β-pyranones. Conjugate radical addition and tandem addition-trapping protocols allow for accessing highly substituted pyrones in a single operation with high selectivity.

Key words

radical reaction - β-pyranones - diastereoselectivity - conjugate addition - tandem reactions
