The rearrangements of 1-octyl, 1-decyl and 1-tridecyl intermediates obtained from thermal lead(IV) acetate (LTA) decarboxylation of nonanoic, undecanoic and tetradecanoic acid were investigated experimentally through analysis and distribution of the products. The relationships between 1,5-, 1,6- and possibly existing 1,7-homolytic hydrogen transfer in 1-octyl-radical, as well as successive 1,2-hydride shift in corresponding cation have been computed via Monte-Carlo method. Taking into account that ratios of 1,5-/1,6-homolytic rearrangements in 1-octyl- and 1-tridecyl radical are approximately the same, the simulation shows very low involvement of 1,7-hydrogen rearrangement (1,5-/1,6-/1,7-hydrogen rearrangement = 85:31:1) in 1-octyl radical.
Tellurium in organic synthesis: the enantioselective synthesis of the pheromone blend components of Mayetiola destructor, Drosophila mulleri and Contarinia pisi

experimental part, p. 2043 - 2047 (2010/03/04)
The components of the pheromone blend of Mayetiola destructor, Drosophila mulleri, and Contarinia pisi were synthesized in high enantiomeric excess (99% ee) from a common enantiopure dianion prepared from an enantiopure hydroxytelluride.
Enantioselective Synthesis of (S)-(+)-2-Tridecanol Acetate, an Aggregation Pheromone Component of Drosophila mulleri
Enders, Dieter,Plant, Andrew
, p. 1241 - 1243 (2007/10/02)
The enantioselective synthesis of (S)-(+)-2-tridecanol acetate (ee = 93.5percent), an aggregation pheromone of Drosophila mulleri, is described.Key steps are the α-alkylation of the propiophenone SAMP-hydrazone (S)-2 (de 96percent) and the Baeyer-Villiger reaction of the ketone (S)-4.Key Words: (S)-(+)-2-Tridecanol acetate / SAMP-hydrazone / Baeyer-Villiger reaction / Pheromone, aggregation / Drosophila mulleri
