SYNTHESIS OF STRAIGHT-CHAIN LEPIDOPTERAN PHEROMONES THROUGH ONE- OR TWO- CARBON HOMOLOGATION OF FATTY ALKENES
-
, (2020/02/14)
Methods for the preparation of alkenes including insect pheromones are described. The methods include homologation reactions employing reagents such as 1,3-diesters, epoxides, cyanoacetates, and cyanide salts for elongation of starting materials and intermediates by one or two carbon atoms. The alkenes include insect pheromones useful in a number of agricultural applications.

Paragraph 0189; 0190, (2013/09/12)
The present invention is directed to methods of synthesizing insect pheromones, particularly lepidopteran insect pheromones, their precursors and derivatives from inexpensive, readily available starting materials using olefin metathesis catalysis.

Calcium borohydride is found to hydroborate unsaturated systems in the presence of ethyl acetate. The reaction exhibits remarkable selectivity towards terminal double bonds. Several Z-11-alken-1-ol pheromones are synthesized using this method.
