Abstract

This review summarizes the current knowledge on lactones, a class of biologically active natural products isolated from a wide range of living organisms. Butenolide, 5,6-dihydropyran-2-one, and sesquiterpene lactones display an impressive variety of bioactivities and are the most abundant in nature. This paper provides a compilation of ring construction strategies for the synthesis of small, medium, and macrolactones and discusses their biological activities and industrial, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical applications. • This review summarizes the current knowledge on lactones. • Lactones display an impressive variety of bioactivities. • Simple, medium lactonic rings to macrolactones were stereoselectively synthesized. • Lactone family have received considerable attention from the scientific community.
