Formation of COOH-Ylides, and Their Reactivities and Selectivities in Wittig Reactions

Whereas two equivalents of base are typically required to prepare carboxylate (CO 2-) ylides [Ph 3 P + C - (H)-alk-CO 2- ] (alk = alkanediyl) from carboxy (CO 2 H) pho

1H-Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies of saturated, acetylenic and ethylenic triacylglycerols

The 1H-NMR spectroscopic properties of 15 synthetic homologous saturated triacylglycerols of type AAA and 16 mixed saturated triacylglycerols of type ABA and AAB have been studied. Triacylglycerols containing short-chain fatty acids (2:0-6:0) are readily identified. Triacylglycerols containing medium- and long-chain fatty acid components are not differentiated. From the analysis of 19 acetylenic triacylglycerols of type AAA, ABA and AAB (containing positional isomers of acetylenic fatty acids), it is only possible to characterize triacylglycerols with acyl groups containing the acetylenic bond at the Δ2-Δ5 position. 1H-NMR analysis could not confirm the positions (α- or β-acyl) of the acetylenic acids in mixed triacylglycerols. In the study of 22 ethylenic triacylglycerols of type AAA containing positional isomers of (Z)- or (E)-ethylenic acids, molecules containing an ethylenic bond in the Δ2 position of the acyl chains were readily characterized, as the ethylenic protons in the α- and β-acyl chains were fully resolved. Triacylglycerols containing an unsaturated center at the position were characterized by the shifts of the 2-H protons. The spectra of the remaining triacylglycerol molecules were very similar and the position of the ethylenic system could not be determined by this technique.

SYNTHESIS OF DODEC-5E-EN-1-OL - THE PHEROMONE OF TRICIMBA CINCTA - AND TETRADEC-5E-1-YL ACETATE - AN IMITATOR OF THE PHEROMONE OF RHYNCHOPACHA SP.

On the basis of a modified Knoevenagel reaction starting from octanal and decanal, the stereodirected synthesis has been effected of dodec-5E-en-ol (the pheromone of the grass fly Tricimba cincta - and tetradec-5E-en-yl acetate) an imitator of the pheromone of the moth Rhynchopacha sp.

TRANS STEREOSELECTIVITY IN THE REACTION OF (4-CARBOXYBUTYLIDENE)TRIPHENYLPHOSPHORANE WITH AROMATIC ALDEHYDES

Aromatic aldehydes react with 1 to give predominantly trans 6-aryl-5-hexenoic acids, under special conditions.A systematic study of the reaction of 1 with aldehydes, in a preliminary attempt to define the cause and scope of the trans stereoselectivity, is reported.
