- Pheromone synthesis. Part 259: Synthesis of seven methyl-branched hydrocarbons as the pheromone candidates for female Korean apricot wasp, Eurytoma maslovskii
-
Seven new methyl-branched hydrocarbons were synthesized, which were the pheromone candidates of the female Korean apricot wasp (Eurytoma maslovskii). They are (Z)-15-methyl-7-nonacosene (1), (Z)-17-methyl-7-hentriacontene (2), 3,7-dimethylheptacosane (3), 8,12-dimethyltriacontane (4), 8,18-dimethyltriacontane (5), 3,7,11-trimethylnonacosane (6), and 3,7,17-trimethylnonacosane (7). All of them were synthesized as stereoisomeric mixtures, employing short and simple routes. Hydrocarbon 7 was synthesized via 4,8-dimethyldecanal (71, tribolure), the red flour beetle pheromone. The hydrocarbons 1,2,3 and 6 were identified by GC–MS analysis as the components (with unknown stereochemistry) of the female-specific secretion of E. maslovskii.

- Deuterated analogues of 4,8-dimethyldecanal, the aggregation pheromone of Tribolium castaneum: Synthesis and pheromonal activity
-
To elucidate the deuterium isotope effect (DIE) in pheromonal activity and to investigate the biosynthetic pathway of 4,8-dimethyldecanal (4,8-DMD; 1), the aggregation pheromone of the red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum), deuterated analogues of 4,8-DMDs (2, 3, 4, and 5), were synthesized and their pheromonal activities were tested using a two-hole pitfall olfactometer. Although no apparent DIE was observed in their pheromonal activities, 4,8-DMD-1-d 1 (2) was less attractive than other analogues, which suggested that the bond distance between the formyl group of 1 and its receptor was critical in pheromone recognition by T. castaneum.

The partial ozonolysis of (E)-2,7-octadienal and (E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal led to (E)-7,7-dimethoxy-2-heptenal and (E)-1,6-diacetoxy-3-methyl-2-hexene.The products were used for the synthesis of (5E,7Z)-5,7-dodecadienal and the corresponding alcohol and acetate , 4,8-dimethyldecanal , and (E)-4-methyl-1,1-dimethoxy-8-oxo-4-nonene .

-
A synthesis is proposed of 4,8-dimethyldecanal (VIII) - a pheromone of the flour beetles Tribolium confusum and T. castaneum.By heating 71.2 g of 4-methyltetrahydropyran (I), 83.2 g of AcBr and 1.57 g ZnCl2 (45 deg C , then 120 deg C, 2h), 1-acetoxy-5-bromo-3-methylpentane (II) was obtained.The hydrolysis of 19.8 g of (II) ( MeOH-H2O, TsOH, 20 deg C, 15h) gave 5-bromo-3-methylpentan-1-ol (III).From 18.1 g of (III) and 38.9 ml of 2,3-dihydropyran (Et2O, TsOH, 20 deg C, 20h) was obtained the 2-THPL ester of (III), (IV), which was converted into 3-methyloct-7-en-1-ol (V) by the treatment of the corresponding Grignard reagent with allyl bromide (THF, CuI-bi-2-pyridyl, 2 deg C, 4 h, Ar).The interaction of 1.42 g of (V) with Et3Al (hexane, 20 deg C, Cp2ZrCl2, Ar) gave 3,7-dimethylnonan-1-ol (VI), boiling which with 48percent HBr in the presence of concentrated H2SO4 gave 1-bromo-3,7-dimethylnonane (VII) which was then converted into the desired (VIII) by the reaction of the corresponding Grignard reagent with DMFA ( 0-2 deg C, 1 h; 20 deg C, 2h; Ar).The characteristics of the compounds - yield (percent), nD (deg C): (I), 79, 1.4340 (22); (III) 89, 1.4660 (23); (IV), 82, 1.4739 (23); (V), 85, -; (VI) , 90, 1.4483 (20); (VII), 88, 1.4409 (22); (VIII), 88, 1.4589 (22).Details of the IR and PMR spectra of the compounds (II) - (VII) are given.

- A NEW SYNTHESIS OF (4R,8R)-4,8-DIMETHYLDECANAL - THE PHEROMONE OF THE MEAL WORMS Tribolium confusum AND Tribolium castaneum
-
A method of synthesis was developed for (4R,8R)-4,8-dimethyldecanal - the aggregation pheromone of the meal worms Tribolium confusum and T. castaneum.It contains altogether 12 stages and uses (R)-(+)-5-acetoxy-4-ethylpentanoic acid and (S)-(+)-3,7-dimethyl-1,6-octadiene as the initial chiral compounds.The overall yield of the pheromone amounted to 27percent on the initial acid or 15percent on the initial diene.The optical purity of the chiral centers C-4 and C-8 in the molecule of the pheromone was estimated as ca. 55 and ca. 97percent respectively.

- Identification of the Aggregation Pheromone of Flour Beetles Tribolium castaneum and T. confusum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)
-
The aggregation pheromone produced by the male red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, and confused flour beetles, T. confusum was identified as 4,8-dimethyldecan-1-al by GLC, GC-MS, PMR spectra, and synthesis of the compound.The synthetic pheromone was less attractive compared with the natural pheromone, because the synthetic sample was composed of four optical isomers.
