(+)-cis-Disparlure: Synthesis and Field Tests

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00815171

A synthesis of (+)-cis-disparlure is described starting from racemic 2-hydroxy-dodecannitrile (2), which is transformed into the O-protected enantiomerically pure cyanohydrine 4.Grignard-reaction followed by reduction with BH3*(CH3)2S yields the correspon
