Pheromone synthesis. Part 250: Determination of the stereostructure of CH503, a sex pheromone of male Drosophila melanogaster, as (3R,11Z,19Z)-3- acetoxy-11,19-octacosadien-1-ol by synthesis and chromatographic analysis of its eight isomers

All the eight stereoisomers of 3-acetoxy-11,19-octacosadien-1-ol (1), the male sex pheromone (CH503) of Drosophila melanogaster, were synthesized from two acetylenic starting materials and the enantiomers of 3,4-epoxy-1-butanol PMB ether. Complete separation of the eight isomers of 1 by reversed phase HPLC at -20 °C was achieved after their esterification with (1R,2R)-2-(2,3- anthracenedicarboximido)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (27), and the natural CH503 was found to be (3R,11Z,19Z)-1.
Pheromone synthesis. Part 244: Synthesis of the racemate and enantiomers of (11Z,19Z)-CH503 (3-acetoxy-11,19-octacosadien-1-ol), a new sex pheromone of male Drosophila melanogaster to show its (S)-isomer and racemate as bioactive

The enantiomers of (11Z,19Z)-3-acetoxy-11,19-octacosadien-1-ol were synthesized from the enantiomers of 3,4-epoxy-1-butanol PMB ether. Its racemate was also synthesized. Its (S)-isomer and racemate were shown to possess the same pheromone activity as CH503, a long-lived inhibitor of male courtship in Drosophila melanogaster, although the racemate was less active.
Vinylic Organoboranes. 4. A General, One-Pot Synthesis of 6- and 7-Alkyn-1-ols via Boracyclanes. Influence of Steric Effects in the Iodination of Lithium Alkynyl "Ate" Complexes of Dialkylborinates

The iodination of the "ate" complexes derived from various B-alkoxyborinane derivatives and 1-alkynyllithium has been investigated.The results indicate the ate complex from B-methoxyborinane is converted into desired 6-alkyn-1-ol in a yield of only 22percent, with much larger amounts, 65percent, of the undesired 1-iodo-1-alkyne.Increases in the steric bulk of the alkoxy group on boron increase the yield of the required 6-alkyn-1-ol with the best results realized with B-(triphenylmethoxy)borinane.Treatment of B-(triphenylmethoxy)borinane with 1-alkynyllithium affords the corresponding "ate" complex.Subsequent iodination induces the migration of one end of the cycloalkyl chain from boron to the adjacent carbon, resulting in the formation of the one-carbon homologated borepane moiety.This then undergoes a rapid deiodoboronation to afford the corresponding (6-alkyn-1-yl)boronate ester.Oxidation of these esters produces the desired 6-alkyn-1-ols in excellent yields (85percent).An attempt to extend this reaction to di-n-alkylborinates to prepare the corresponding unsymmetrical alkynes did not achieve satisfactory results.Alternatively, the iodination of the "ate" complex from B-methylborinane and 1-alkynyllithium, followed by oxidation, provides the required 6-alkyn-1-ols in high yields.This procedure has been successfully extended to the seven-membered borepane moiety to provide the corresponding 7-alkyn-1-ols.Extension of this reaction to the di-n-alkylmethylboranes provides the corresponding unsymmetrical alkynes in good yields.Thus, these procedures constitute a simple, general and one-pot synthesis of the desired alkyn-1-ols, valuable synthons in organic synthesis.Insect pheromones, (Z)-7-tetradecenaland (Z)-7-hexadecenal, were readily prepared in excellent yields by utilizing this convenient procedure.
CI(NO) Spectra of n-Alkyn-1-ols
Brauner, A.,Budzikiewicz, H.
, p. 324 - 326 (2007/10/02)
n-Alkyn-1-ols show fragmentation patterns which are influenced by the length of the chain and by the relative positions of the hydroxyl group and triple bond, and which allow a localization of the site of unsaturation.
