BAKER'S YEAST MEDIATED SYNTHESIS OF (5SR,9S)-5,9-DIMETHYL-HEPTADECANE AND (5SR,9S)-5,9-DIMETHYL-PENTADECANE; THE MAIN SEX-PHEROMONE COMPONENTS OF Leucoptera scitella AND Perileucoptera coffeella ENRICHED IN 9S-ISOMERS

A mixture of (5S,9S)-5,9-dimethyl-heptadecane (1a), the main sex-pheromone component of leucoptera scitella, and its (5R,9S)-isomer (2a) was synthesized conveniently from (R)-citronellal (4, obtained from racemic citronellal by enantiomer selective baker's yeast reduction) in four steps. (5SR,9S)-5,9-Dimethyl-pentadecane (mixture of 1b and 2b), a possible sex-attractant of Perileucoptera coffeella was prepared analogously.

The first catalytic asymmetric procedure capable of preparing all 4 diastereoisomers (ee > 99%, de > 98%) of a versatile saturated isoprenoid building block was developed and the value of this new method was demonstrated in its application to the concise total synthesis of two pheromones.

Pheromone synthesis, CXCII. - Synthesis of all the stereoisomers of 10,14-dimethyloctadec-1-ene, 5,9-dimethyloctadecane and 5,9- dimethylheptadecane, the sex pheromone components of the apple leafminer, Lyonetia prunifoliella

All of the stereoisomers of 10,14-dimethyloctadec-1-ene (1), 5,9- dimethyloctadecane (2) and 5,9-dimethylheptadecane (3), the sex pheromone components of the apple leafminer (Lyonetia prunifoliella), were synthesized by starting from the enantiomers of ci
