Concise Two-Step Synthesis of γ-Pyrone from Acetone

Abstract: g-Pyrone (1) is readily accessible in 59% overall yield via 1,1,5,5-tetraethoxy-3-pentanone (10b) and subsequent acidic hydrolysis. The synthesis enables an easy scale up, as demonstrated for intermediate 10b.

“…The two-step sequence was described in the literature on a gram scale. 7 However, the first step suffered from several drawbacks such as the use of a large excess of BF 3 • OEt 2 and the need for cryogenic conditions. We successfully reproduced the procedures, but all our efforts to reduce the amount of Lewis acid and to perform the reaction under noncryogenic conditions failed (see Figure S1 in the Supporting Information).…”

“…Our initial strategy hinged upon the construction of γ-pyrone 9 starting from diacetal 10 made from acetone and triethyl orthoformate. The two-step sequence was described in the literature on a gram scale . However, the first step suffered from several drawbacks such as the use of a large excess of BF 3 ·OEt 2 and the need for cryogenic conditions.…”
