The cyclic ketals employed presumably facilitated the lactonization

  • Indeed, we observed that monosubstituted seco acids also lactonize, albeit in lower yields. In these cases, a single substituent at C-3 is apparently more important than one at C-7: Geminal dimethyl substitution at C-7 failed to induce lactonization. The complete results from these calculations will be described elsewhere .
