Stereodirectional synthesis of the main component of pheromone (9Z,12E)-tetradeca-9,12-dienyl acetate by cross-coupling

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/bf02757427

By cross-coupling of alkynyl cuprate with crotyl halides was synthesized (9Z,12E)-tetradeca-9-12-dienyl acetate, the main component of pheromones of several insect species Lepidoptera. The assignment of the chemical shifts of diene system was performed by ¹H and ¹³NMR spectroscopy.
