The synthesis of 5‐[(pentafluorosulfanyl)methyl]‐γ‐butyrolactones bearing different substituents at position 3 or 4 is reported. A silver‐promoted intramolecular cyclization of substituted 4‐chloro‐5‐(pentafluorosulfanyl)pentanoic acids allows the preparation of the substituted SF 5 ‐containing γ‐butyrolactones in up to 96 % yield.
