Concise and efficient syntheses of (7Z,11Z,13E)-hexadecatrienal, a sex-pheromone component of the citrus leaf miner, and (8E,10Z)-tetradecadienal, the sex pheromone of the horse-chestnut leaf miner were described, starting from the commercially available acetylene and acrolein. The stereoselective formation of E,Z-conjugated double bond relied on cross-coupling between Grignard reagent and (E,Z)-bromodiene. The present syntheses achieved high overall yield (26% of the former and 23% for the latter) and high isomeric purity (97% for the former and 99% for the latter).
