- 11-HALO-3-UNDECENE COMPOUND AND A PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE SAME AND A PROCESS FOR PREPARING 9-DODECENAL COMPOUND
-
The present invention provides a process for preparing an 11-halo-3-undecene compound (7) in which X1 represents a halogen atom, the process comprising a step of subjecting a nucleophilic reagent, 3-hexenyl compound (5): in which M2 represents Li or MgZ2, wherein Z2 represents a halogen atom or a 3-hexenyl group, to a coupling reaction with a 1-halo-5-halopentane compound (6) in which X3 and X4 may be same with or different from each other and represent a halogen atom, to produce the 11-halo-3-undecene compound (7). The present invention also provides a process for preparing a 9-dodecenal compound (4): the process comprising a step of subjecting a nucleophilic reagent, 8-undecenyl compound (1) in which M1 represents Li or MgZ1, wherein Z1 represents a halogen atom or an 8-undecenyl group, and an orthoformic ester compound (2) in which R may be same with or different from each other and represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, to a nucleophilic substitution reaction to produce a 1,1-dialkoxy-9-dodecene compound (3) in which R are as defined above; and hydrolyzing the 1,1-dialkoxy-9-dodecene compound (3) thus obtained to produce the 9-dodecenal compound (4).
