The results obtained in the base-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of enolates derivedfrom some representative 4,5-, 5,6-, and 6,7-epoxy ketones and of the corresponding alkenes are discussed. The LHMDS/Sc(OTf)3 protocol on epoxy ketones appears to be a valuable tool for the stereoselective obtainment of the corresponding cyclic γ-hydroxy ketones (γ-HKs).
