Question

Provide synthetic strategies that will transform the unsaturated ketone in the middle to the two lactones shown. Your answer should include reaction conditions (reagents, equivalents, solvents, etc.). Comment briefly (point form) when you expect reactions to be chemo-, regio-, or stereoselective, and why you expect that selectivity. Include a stereochemical model as necessary

Definition Definition Organic compounds that have a carbonyl group, C = O, as their functional group. The carbonyl group in ketones is placed somewhere in the middle of the molecular structure, which means, the C=O is attached to two alkyl groups or benzene rings. Just like all other homologous series, the naming of ketones is done using a common suffix “-one”. The general molecular formula is C n H 2n O. Functional group of a ketone
