title: Novel palladium-catalyzed cascade carboxylative annulation to construct functionalized γ-lactones in ionic liquids.
abstract: A novel palladium-catalyzed, one-pot, four-step cascade method has been developed to afford functionalized γ-lactones in moderate to good yields. This novel and general methodology represents a rare instance of carbonylation of the C(sp(3))-palladium bond.
