The asymmetric synthesis of the stereoisomers of 7,11-dimethylheptadecane (1) and 7-methylheptadecane (2) via α-alkylation employing the SAMP/RAMP hydrazone method with high asymmetric induction and good overall yields is described. A mixture of (7S,11R)-1 and (S)-2 is the female-produced sex pheromone of the spring hemlock looper moth (Lambdina athasaria) and the pitch pine looper moth (Lambdina pellucidaria). They are both forest pests in northeastern North America.
Pheromone synthesis, CLXXIV: Synthesis of (5R,11S)-5,11-Dimethylheptadecane and (S)-2,5-Dimethylheptadecane, the major and the minor components of the sex pheromone of the geometrid moth, Lambdina fiscellaria lugubrosa

(5R,11S)-5,11-Dimethylheptadecane (1), the major component of the female-produced sex pheromone of the western hemlock looper (Lambdina fiscellaria lugubrosa), was synthesized by starting from the enantiomers of methyl 3-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoate (3). (S)-2,5-Dimethylheptadecane (2), the minor and synergistic component of the pheromone, was also synthesized by starting from (S)-citronellol (4). VCH Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, 1996.
