Stereospecific inversion of secondary tosylates to yield chiral methyl-branched building blocks, applied to the asymmetric synthesis of leafminer sex pheromones
摘要:
All four of the possible stereoisomers of 5,9-dimethylheptadecane, the major sex pheromone component secreted by female moths of the mountain-ash bentwing (Leucoptera scitella), were synthesized by the coupling of two chiral blocks with a methyl branch at the 2- or 3-position. The blocks were prepared by applying the stereospecific inversion of secondary tosylates, which were derived from (R)- and (S)-propylene oxide, and their enantiopurities were confirmed by chiral HPLC analysis.
