Question

Following is an outline of the stereospecific synthesis of the “Corey lactone.” Professor E. J. Corey (Harvard University) describes it this way. “The first general synthetic route to all the known prostaglandins was developed by way of bicycloheptene intermediates. The design was guided by the requirements that the route be versatile enough to allow the synthesis of many analogs and also allow early resolution. This synthesis has been used on a large scale and in laboratories throughout the world; it has been applied to the production of countless prostaglandin analogs. Note: The wavy lines in compound C indicate that the stereochemistry of -Cl and -CN groups was not determined.

Q. The tributyltin hydride, Bu3SnH, used in the conversion of (H) to (I) reacts via a radical chain reaction; the first step involves a reaction with a radical initiator to form Bu3Sn?. Suggest a mechanism for the rest of the reaction.
