[reaction: see text] An efficient oxidative lactonization of 1,4-diols in acetone is accomplished by the well-defined ruthenium catalyst, whose bifunctional nature underlies the high efficiency as well as unique chemo- and regioselectivity of the reaction which provides a rapid access to gamma-butyrolactones including flavor lactones hinokinin, and muricatacin.
The first manganese‐catalyzedhydrogenation of esters to alcohols has been developed. The combination of Mn(CO)5Br with [HN(CH2CH2P(Et)2)2] leads to a mixture of cationic and neutral Mn PNP pincer complexes, which enable the reduction of various ester substrates, including aromatic and aliphatic esters as well as diesters and lactones. Notably, related pincer complexes with isopropyl or cyclohexyl

sphonate [DPPOx] has been newly introduced as a carboxyl-activating reagent which permits a facile direct preparation of 3-acyl-2-oxazolones and amides including peptides from a wide variety of carboxylicacids The 3-acyl-2-oxazolides also serve as versatile reactive agents for highlychemoselective acyl-transfer to the nucleophilic species such as amines, alcohols and thiols, providing convenient
4-butanediols with Acetobacter aceti MIM 2000/28 gave the corresponding γ-lactones in good yields. The biotransformation occurred with intermediate formation of γ-lactols, which are also substrates for oxidation with Acetobacter aceti MIM 2000/28, as validated by selective biotransformation of 6β,7β;15β,16β-dimethylene-3-oxo-17α-pregn-4-en-21,17-carbolactol to drospirenone.
