Asymmetric iodolactonization of gamma- and delta-unsaturated carboxylic acids has been explored in the presence of six different chiral organocatalysts 5-8. The catalyst 6b was found to facilitate the cyclization of 5-arylhex-5-enoic acids 1 to the corresponding iodolactones 2 with up to 96% ee. By this protocol, unsaturated carboxylic acids are converted enantioselectively to synthetically useful delta-lactones in high yields using commercially available NIS. Apparently, both hydrogen bonding and aryl/aryl interactions are important for efficient stereodifferentiation.
An asymmetric iodolactonization reaction catalyzed by a zinc bis-proline–phenol complex
The intramolecular zinc bis-proline-phenol complex 2a was found to promote enantioselective iodolactonization reactions of both electron-rich and electron-poor 5-aryl-5-hexenoic acids affording delta-iodolactones in good chemical yields with up to 82% enantiomeric excess. The reactions were found to be insensitive to air and moisture, providing an experimentally simple protocol for synthetically useful compounds. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The combination of a PyBidine-Ni(OAc)(2) complex with a catalytic amount of iodine efficiently catalyzed asymmetric iodolactonization to generate chiral iodolactones with up to 89% enantiomeric excess. The formation of an intermediate Ni-carboxylate species from the alkenyl carboxylic acid is a key role in promoting the iodolactonization.
