l-(Benzotriazol-l-yl)-3-(diphenylphosphoryl)-l-ethoxy-l-propene (3), prepared from N-(α-ethoxyallyl)benzotriazole (1), underwent selective Horner reactions with aldehydes to give substituted dienes. Subsequent hydrolysis of these intermediates readily produced β,γ-unsaturated esters 2a-c in good yields. Similar reactions with ketones followed by hydrolysis of 10 produced, depending on the conditions, either the corresponding γ,γ-disubstituted β,γ-unsaturated esters 11a-d or γ-lactones 9a-c and 13. A double lithiation process provided β,γ,γ-trisubstituted β,γ-unsaturated esters 15, 18, and β,γ,γ-trisubstituted γ-lactone 14.
