Procedure

When the above procedures were repeated in the same manner except that β-hydroxybutanoic acid synthesized in Referential Example 2 was used instead of (R)-β-hydroxynonanoic acid, (2S,5R)-2-hydroxy-5-methyl-δ-valerolactone was obtained.

Workup

  1. customsynthesized in Referential Example 2
