The four stereoisomers of N-2′-methylbutyl-2-methylbutylamide, the sex pheromone of the longhorn beetle Migdolus fryanus, an economically important pest of sugarcane in South America, were synthesized. The key intermediate 2-methylbutan-1-ol is commercially available only in its (S)-(-)-form. The (R)-(+)-enantiomer was obtained optically pure from methyl (S)-(+)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate in five steps.
Synthesis of (4R,8R)- and (4S,8R)-4,8-dimethyldecanal: the common aggregation pheromone of flour beetles

, p. 5135 - 5137 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis of (4R,8R)- and (4S,8R)-4,8-dimethyldecanal 1 and 1a has been achieved connecting the chiral building block (R)-2-methyl-1-bromobutane 4 with (R)- and (S)-citronellol derivatives. The key intermediate 4 was obtained optically pure in five steps from methyl (S)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate 2.
Predator - Prey Relationship between Navanax inermis and Bulla gouldiana : a Chemical Approach

, p. 3203 - 3210 (2007/10/02)
Two new compounds, 5,6-dehydroaglajne-3 (9) and isopulo'upone (10), have been isolated and characterized, along with the already known niuhinone-B (7), from Navanax inermis and its prey Bulla gouldiana, firmly establishing on a chemical basis the predator - prey relationship between this pair of cephalaspidean opisthobranchs.The peculiarity of the metabolites and their structural analogy with other compounds isolated from other cephalaspidean molluscs assign a taxonomic relevance for them. Key words: Navanax inermis; Bulla gouldiana; cephalaspidean molluscs; polypropionates.
