摘要
This paper provides a simple, convenient and mild condition method for -alkylation of g-butyrolactone. Three types of (E)-a-alkenyl-g-butyrolactone compounds were synthesized by condensation of corresponding aldehydes and g-butyrolactone, using MeONa and EtONa as base. Then the a-alkyl-g-butyrolactones were gained by reducing the former alkenyl compounds through catalytic transfer hydrogenation under Pd/C catalyst with sodium hypophosphite at room temperature.
