The chiral synthesis of maconelliol, [2,2-dimethyl-3-(1-methylethylidene)cyclobutyl] methanol, the alcohol moiety of the major sex pheromone component isolated from the pink hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirsutus, is described. The compound was synthesized in six steps from alpha-pinene and the key step is dehydration of 5 to 7 through the intermediate 6. The absolute configuration of the naturally occurring maconelliol was determined as R. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

cyclobutanoid monoterpene alcohol (maconelliol) that together with lavandulyl 2-methylbutanoate constitutes the sex pheromone to attract males from a distance. Enantioselectivesyntheses of four different stereoisomers of the major component, maconelliyl 2-methylbutanoate 1, from alpha-pinene are reported. Absolute configurations of both naturally occurring maconelliyl 2-methylbutanoate 1 and the minor component
