Abstract
Several aliphatic 2-alkanols with varying chain length has been effici ently resolved by their acetylation using vinyl acetate/PPL in diisopr opyl ether. The effect of solvent polarity, position and type of unsat uration and chain length has been probed. This has led to more conveni ent synthesis of some insect pheromones.
