N-Phenylselenophthalimide is also effective for the selenolactonization, although E and Z lactones (E)-(2c; X = Se) and (Z)-(2c; X = Se) are formed from (1c). Cleavage reactions of γ-alkylidene-γ-butyrolactones afford a new preparative method for 4-oxoalkanoic acid derivatives., application/pdf}, pages = {1999--2004}, title = {Thio- and seleno-lactonizations of alkynoic acids}, volume = {1986}, year = {1986} }
