Abstract A concise synthesis of both enantiomers of γ-valerolactone has been developed from commercially available Alanine. The key steps in the synthesis of these γ-Lactones are DIBAL-H reduction of ester (9) followed by in situ Wittig reaction with EtO2CCH = PPh3 ylide (13) (Z/E = 1: 3.5) and one pot lactonization triggered by deprotection of O-TBS ether (14).
