✦ Synopsis
Heating a mixture of 2-iodoacetamide and 5-hexen-l-ol in water at 75 °C in the presence of a water-soluble radical initiator, 4.4'-azobis(4-cyanopentanoic acid), provided y-(4-hydroxybutyl)-7-1actone in 95% yield. The use of 2iodoacetic acid in place of 2-iodoacetamide also gave the same y-lactone in 93% yield.
