Serricornin, the sex pheromone of Lasioderma serricorne F, was synthesised in 7.6% overall yield starting from methyl (R)-3-hydroxypentanoate of microbial origin. Its (4R,6S,7S)-isomer was also synthesised.
Synthesis of (4R,6S,7R)-7-hydroxy-4,6-dimethyl-3-nonanone and (3R,5S,6R)-6-hydroxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-octanone, the pheromone components of the bostrychid beetle, Dinoderus bifoveolatus

(4R,6S,7R)-7-Hydroxy-4,6-dimethyl-3-nonanone and (3R,5S,6R)-6-hydroxy-3,5- dimethyl-2-octanone, the pheromone components of the bostrychid beetle, Dinoderus bifoveolatus, as well as their (4R,6S,7S)-and (3R,5S,6S)-isomers were synthesized from (2R,4S,5R)- and (2R,4S,5S)2,4-dimethyl-5-heptanolide, respectively.

(4RS,6S,7S)-7-hydroxy-4,6-dimethyl-3-nonanone (serricornin and its C4- epimer) may be prepared from oxazolidinone 5 in 8 steps with an overall yield of 33%.
