Abstract :
The direct synthesis of chlorolactones from differently substituted alkenoic acids, using either sodium hypochlorite or chloramine T as the source of electrophilic chlorine and ytterbium triflate hydrate as the Lewis acid is described. In both cases the reactions proceeded in good yields affording selectively five- or six-membered chlorolactones.
