An enantioselectiveketone hydroacylation enables the direct preparation of lactones from keto alcohols. The alcohol is oxidized in situ to an aldehyde, obviating the need to prepare sensitive keto aldehyde substrates. Noyori's asymmetric transferhydrogenationcatalyst was applied to address challenges of reactivity, chemoselectivity, and enantioselectivity.
