Abstract
Synthesis of (3Z,13Z)-3,13-octadecadienyl acetate has been achieved fr om the readily available 10-undecen-1-ol using cheaper reagents and le ss number of steps. In the key step alkylation of an alkyne is perform ed with solid sodamide giving the product in 50% yield. The method can be easily scaled-up.
