The stereoselective synthesis of two phosphorus-containing derivatives of the known guaianolide arglabin was carried out for the first time. The molecular structures of these products were established based on the spectroscopic data and the results of X-ray diffraction analysis of one of these compounds.

The highly efficient addition of phosphorus and carbon pronucleophiles to α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones (tulipalin A and arglabin) under n-Bu3P catalysis is reported. Kinetic experiments indicate that the unprecedentedly high reactivity of α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones results from the rigid s-cis geometry of the 1-oxa-1,3-butadiene moiety that favors generation of zwitterionic intermediate stabilized
