Synthesis of the Pheromone of the Longtailed Mealybug, a Sterically Congested, Irregular Monoterpenoid
摘要:
A straightforward and scaleable Synthesis of the sterically congested pheromone of the longtailed mealybug, with two adjacent quarternary carbons in a cyclopentene ring, was accomplished in 13.5% overall yield. Key steps included regiospecific cyclization of an alpha-diazo-beta-ketoester to build the cyclopentane ring, followed by reduction of the enol triflate of the ketone to place the double bond.
