Bromolactonization of 2-Substituted-1-cyclohexenyl-1-acetic acid (1) with 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (dibromantin) in N,N-dimethylformamide gave the corresponding ${\gamma}-bromo-{\beta}-lactone$ (2) and ${\beta}-bromo-{\gamma}-lactone$ (3). The effect of the substituents, the reaction temperature, and the solvent on the regioselectivity was discussed.

Bromolactonization of 2-substituted-1-cyclohexenyl-1-acetic acids with 1, 3-dibromo-5, 5-dime-thylhydantoin 9DBH) and potsssium tertiary butoxide (t-BuOK0 in anhydrous DMF was found to proceed in a highly regioselective manner. The reaction predominantly resulted in the formation of ${\betha}-lactones$ (greater than 96%).
