- A versatile approach to the synthesis of 9(Z)-unsaturated acyclic insect pheromones from undec-10-enoic acid
-
A general approach to the synthesis of 9(Z)-unsaturated acyclic insect pheromones from undec-10-enoic acid was developed. The method comprises the conversion of the acid into undec-10-enyl acetate, shortening of its carbon chain to afford dec-9-enyl acetate (via 11-acetoxyundecanoic acid), and a two-step transformation of the latter into the key intermediate, dec-9-yn-1-ol, by sequential bromination - dehydrobromination. The elimination of two HBr molecules from the dibromide is effectively performed using Bu1OK in the presence of dibenzo-18-crown-6 as the catalyst.

- Continuous Flow Z-Stereoselective Olefin Metathesis: Development and Applications in the Synthesis of Pheromones and Macrocyclic Odorant Molecules**
-
The first continuous flow Z-selective olefin metathesis process is reported. Key to realizing this process was the adequate choice of stereoselective catalysts combined with the design of an appropriate continuous reactor setup. The designed continuous process permits various self-, cross- and macro-ring-closing-metathesis reactions, delivering products in high selectivity and short residence times. This technique is exemplified by direct application to the preparation of a range of pheromones and macrocyclic odorant molecules and culminates in a telescoped Z-selective cross-metathesis/ Dieckmann cyclisation sequence to access (Z)-Civetone, incorporating a serial array of continually stirred tank reactors.

- A New Synthesis of (Z)-9-Tetradecen-1-yl Acetate
-
Alkylation of propargyl alcohol dianion with n-butyl bromide provides hept-2-yn-1-ol (II) which is converted into its bromide (III) and subsequently alkylated with monosodio ethyl malonate to furnish the diester (IV).The latter on decarbethoxylation with NaCl/DMSO affords the ester (V).Catalytic hydrogenation of V in the presence of Lindlar's catalyst produces ethyl non-4Z-en-1-oate (VI) which on LAH reduction gives the carbinol (VII) whose corresponding bromide (VIII) on coupling reaction with 1-bromo-5-tetrahydropyranyloxypentane gives IX.Removal of the protective pyranyl moiety from IX followed by treatment with acetic acid-acetyl chloride yields the title compound (I).

-
Several female sex pheromone components produced by moths belonging to the order of Lepidoptera, and potential attractants of Dacus oleae (Diptera:Tripetidae) have been synthesized in high chemical and stereoisomeric purity by improved acetylenic routes involving alkylation of lithium 1-alkyn-1-ides in HMPT, followed by (Z) and (E) highly stereoselective reduction of the derived internal alkynes.Particular care has been paid to optimize the parameters of the reactions used and to evaluate the chemical and isomeric purity of the reaction products.The compounds synthesized include (Z)- and (E)-5-nonen-1-ol, (Z)- and (E)-7-dodecen-1-yl acetate, (Z)- and (E)-7-teradecen-1-yl acetate, (Z)- and (E)-7-nonen-1-ol, (Z)- and (E)-9-tetradecen-1-yl acetate, (Z)- and (E)-10-tetradecen-1-yl acetate, (Z)- and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate.Pure (Z)-6-nonen-1-ol, which is an attractant of olive fruit fly, D. oleae, and very probably, a constituent of the sex pheromone of females of this insect, has been prepared by a rather efficient copper-catalyzed reaction between (Z)-3-hexen-1-ylmagnesium bromide and oxetane. (9Z,12E)-9,12-Tetradecadien-1-yl acetate, which is the pheromone of Anagasta kuenniella, Ephestia elutella, Cadra figulella, Spodoptera exigua, S. litura, and a component of the sex pheromones of several other Lepidoptera, has been conveniently prepared by using the copper-catalyzed coupling reaction between (E)-1-chloro-2-butene and 10-tetrahydropyranyloxy-1-decenylmagnesium bromide, followed by acetylation and Z-stereoselective reduction of the derived 1,4-enyne.All syntheses have been conducted on a scale to yield less than 50 mmol of the pure sex pheromone components, but seem adaptable for much larger quantities.
