Pheromone Synthesis, CLXXI. A New Synthesis of (2E,4E,6R,10R)-4,6,10,12-Tetramethyl-2,4-tridecadien-7-one (Matsuone), the Primary Component of the Sex Pheromone of Three Matsucoccus Pine Bast Scales

A new synthesis of (2E,4E,6R,10R)-4,6,10,12-tetramethyl-2,4-tridecadien-7-one (1; matsuone) was achieved by starting from (2R,3S)-4-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-2,3-epoxy-1-butanol (21 = E) and methyl (R)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoate (2 = I).Cleavage of 2
