Abstract: A versatile method for the synthesis of novel brominated 4-alkyl-2(5H)-furanones under mild reaction conditions is described. This synthetic strategy requires only one chromatographic separation over six steps and employs the cyclodehydration of brominated levulinic acid as the key transformation.
