43. In our hand, 93:7 anti-stereoselectivity was obtained from the reaction of γ-valerolactone with benzyl bromide in THF (LDA, -78 °C). The selectivity is slightly reduced in THF-HMPA (2 equiv) (87:13). Successive dialkylation of γ-valerolactone with methyl iodide and then benzyl bromide in THF (LDA. -78 °C) gave 93:7 anti-selectivitv.
