Abstract
[reaction: see text] A novel lactonization of 4-aryl-4-pentenoic acids is described using aryl-lambda(3)-iodanes as reagents for this transformation. The hypervalent iodine species acts as a hypernucleofuge, generating intermediate phenonium ions, which react to aryl-migrated lactones.Entities:
