A chiron approach to (1R,2R,5S,7R)-2-hydroxy-exo-brevicomin, a component of the volatiles produced by the male mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae

A chiron approach to a synthesis of (1R,2R,5S,7R)-2-hydroxy-exo-brevicomin 1, a component of the volatiles obtained from male mountain pine beetles, Dendroctonus ponderosae has been achieved. Our synthesis started with commercially available d-mannitol and involved Wittig olefination, acid catalysed one-pot hydrogenation and internal acetalization as key steps.
