All the fourstereoisomers of (1′S)-1-ethyl-2-methylpropyl 3,13-dimethylpentadecanoate, the majorcomponent of the sexpheromone of Clania variegata, were synthesized by starting from (R)- or (S)-2-methylbutan-1-ol, (R)- or (S)-citronellal, and (S)-2-methylpentan-3-ol. Olefin cross metathesis was employed as the key reaction.
