Abstract

The facile preparation of a novel 8-membered polyhydroxylated salicylic acid lactone from 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid and sodium thio-D-glucose is described. The key step involved a sodium hydride promoted intramolecular lactonization in the presence of excess TMSCl, which led to isolation of the "natural product like" lactone.
