OZONOLYSIS OF ALKENES AND REACTIONS OF POLYFUNCTIONAL COMPOUNDS. XLVI. SYNTHESIS OF (4S,8S)-4,8-DIMETHYLDECANAL AND ITS DIMETHYL ACETAL

From accessible chiral structural blocks, namely, (R)-methyl-citronellate and (S)-2-methyl-1-butanol, (6S,10S)-2,6,10-trimethyl-2-dodecene was synthesized.The ozonolysis of this gave (4S,8S)-4,8-dimethyldecanal, one of the stereoisomers of the aggregation pheromone of the meal worms Tribolium confusium and T. castaneum, and its dimethyl acetal.

Pheromone Synthesis, CXXX. Synthesis of (4S,8S)- and (4S,8R)-4,8-Dimethyldecanal, the Stereoisomers of the Aggregation Pheromone of Tribolium castaneum

(4S,8S)- and (4S,8R)-4,8-Dimethyldecanal (1) were synthesized by starting from (R)-citronellic acid (2a), methyl (S)-3-hydroxyy-2-methylpropanoate (3a), and (S)-2-methyl-1-butanol (4a).

DIASTEREOTOPIC GROUP SELECTIVITY AT A PROSTEREOGENIC CARBON CENTER: SYNTHESIS OF (+/-)-SYN-4,8-DIMETHYLDECANAL

A group selective dealkylation reaction of a bridged ketal with trimethylsilyl iodide serves to control stereochemistry at carbon centers that are separated by five atoms.In combination with the iron/copper promoted fragmentation reaction of a hydroperoxi

Synthesis of 4(RS),8(S)-Dimethyldecanal: An Aggrigation Pheromone of Red Flour Beetles

A simple and straight forward synthesis of the pheromone 4(RS),8(S)-dimethyldecanal (IX) has been described starting from 7-hydroxycitronellal (I).

SYNTHESIS OF ALL OF THE FOUR POSSIBLE STEREOISOMERS OF 4,8-DIMETHYLDECANAL, THE AGGREGATION PHEROMONE OF THE FLOUR BEETLES

The four stereoisomers of 4,8-dimethyldecanal were synthesized employing organometallic or electrolytic coupling reactions as the key step.The response of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, to the (4R,8R)-isomer was identical with that to the natural pheromone, while other isomers induced only very weak or no responses.The (4R,8R)-isomer is therefore the natural pheromone.
