Pheromone Synthesis, CLXXVI: Synthesis of the four stereoisomers of 3,13-dimethylheptadecane, the major sex pheromone component of the western false hemlock looper

All of the four stereoisomers of 3,13-dimethylheptadecane (1), the female-produced sex pheromone of the western false hemlock looper (Nepytia freemani), were synthesized by starting from the enantiomers of citronellol (2a) and 2-methyl-1-butanol (4a). VCH Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, 1996.

Synthesis of the enantiomers of some methyl-branched cuticular hydrocarbons of the ant, Diacamma sp.

The enantiomers of 3-methylpentacosane, 3-methylheptacosane, 3-methylnonacosane, 13-methylheptacosane, and 5-methylheptacosane were synthesized by starting from the enantiomers of 2-methylbutyl bromide or citronellol. These methyl-branched alkanes are the characteristic components of the cuticular hydrocarbons of queen of the ant, Diacamma sp.
