[reactions: see text] Intramolecular additions of hydroxyl or carboxyl groups to inert olefins catalyzed by simple silver(I) triflate are described. Good to excellent yields can be obtained for a range of substrates under relatively mild conditions. This reaction represents one of the simplest methods to construct cyclic ethers or lactones.
Cationic iron salts were found to be good catalysts for intra- and intermolecular addition of carboxylicacids to olefins, which afforded the corresponding esters in good yields.
