Titanium(II)-based Z-reduction of alkynes: Stereo- and regio-specific Z-dideuteriation of conjugated and methylene-skipped ynes
Hungerford, Natasha L.,Kitching, William
, p. 1697 - 1698 (1996)
A TiII-mediated, stereo- and regio-specific reduction of isolated, conjugated and methylene skipped poly-ynes to the corresponding Z-dideuterio polyenes in a one-pot procedure with D2O as deuterium source is described, and this methodology (using H2O) is applied to the synthesis of (3E,8Z,11Z)-tetradeca-3,8,11-trienyl acetate, the major sex attractant of Scrobipalpuloides absoluta, a destructive pest of tomatoes.
Microscale, random reduction: Application to the characterization of (3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-tetradecatrienyl acetate, a new lepidopteran sex pheromone

The major sex attractant released by Scrobipalpuloides absoluta, a devastating tomato pest, was identified as (3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-tetradecatrienyl acetate by a novel strategy involving the random reduction of double bonds. The technique is applicable to double bond localization of polyunsaturated compounds available even in nanogram quantities. The triene ester was synthesized by a stereospecific procedure and shown to be highly attractive to conspecific males and identical to the natural substance.
Preparation of stereochemically pure E- and Z-alkenoic acids and their methyl esters from bicyclo[n.1.0]alkan-1-ols. Application in the synthesis of insect pheromones
Zubrytski,Kananovich,Matiushenkov
, p. 813 - 823 (2017/08/02)
Oxidative cleavage of exo- and endo-alkyl- and hydroxyalkyl-substituted bicyclo[n.1.0]alkan-1-ols with (diacetoxy-λ3-iodanyl)benzene gave the corresponding methyl alkenoates exclusively with E or Z configuration of the double bond. This reaction was used as the key stage in the syntheses of stereoisomerically pure components of pest insect pheromones: (E)-dodec-9-en-1-yl acetate (European pine shoot moth Rhyacionia buoliana), (Z)-tetradec-11-en-1-yl acetate (European oak leafroller Tortrix viridana), and (3E,8Z,11Z)-tetradeca-3,8,11-trien-1-yl acetate (tomato leafminer Tuta absoluta).
5-ACETOXY-(E3)-3-PENTENYL METHOXYMETHYL ETHER AND METHOD FOR PREPARING (E3)-3-ALKENYL ACETATE USING THE SAME

Paragraph 0074; 0075; 0076, (2013/09/26)
Provided are 5-acetoxy-(E3)-3-pentenyl methoxymethyl ether which can be prepared in conventional reaction equipment and a method for preparing an (E3)-3-alkenyl acetate by using it. More specifically, 5-hydroxy-(E3)-3-pentenyl methoxymethyl ether obtained by reacting 4-formyl-(E3)-3-butenyl methoxymethyl ether with a reductant is reacted with an acetylating agent to prepare 5-acetoxy-(E3)-3-pentenyl methoxymethyl ether. (E3)-3-alkenyl methoxymethyl ether obtained by a coupling reaction between the 5-acetoxy-(E3)-3-pentenyl methoxymethyl ether and a Grignard reagent is treated with an acid, and then reacted with an acetylating agent to prepare the (E3)-3-alkenyl acetate.
