α-Methylene-γ-lactones fuses to five- and six-membered carbocycles were efficiently synthesized from β-ethoxycarbonyl-ω-formylallylsilane derivatives by means of the intramolecular Hosomi reaction. The formylated allylsilanes (11a, b, 12a and b) were synthesized from ethyl β-trimethylsilylpropionate and ω-tetrahydropyranyloxy-pentanal (4a) and -hexanal (4b) in several steps. The cyclization reaction of these aldehydes was performed under mild conditions with a high degree of stereocontrol. Treatment of the (E)- and (Z)-isomers of the allysilanes (11a and 12a) with titanium tetrachloride or boron trifluoride etherate gave a five-membered cis-hydroxy ester (13a). Treatment of the (Z)-allylsilane derivative (11b) with titanium tetrachloride afforded a six-membered cis-hydroxy ester (13b) as a major product together with the trans-isomer (14b), and treatment with boron trifluoride etherate selectively gave the cis-isomer (13b). On the other hand, treatment of (E)-allylsilane (12b) with titanium tetrachloride selectively gave the cis-hydroxy ester (13b), while the use of boron trifluoride etherate exclusively afforded the trans-isomer (14b).These stereoselectivities can be explained in terms of chelated transition models. Lactonization of these hydroxy esters afforded the corresponding fused α-methylene-γ-lactones (16a, 17a and b) in good yields.
