Abstract
The alkylation of the monolithium derived 5 of 2-(chloromethyl)-3-tosy lpropene (1) with bromo- or iodo-methyltrimethylsilane affords the bet a-silyl sulfone 7, which after nucleophilic substitution of the chlori ne atom followed by beta-elimination of tosyltrimethylsilane, promoted by tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF), gives 2-substituted conjugated dienes 6 and the outer-ring diene 14. Racemic ipsenol (10b), an aggre gation pheromone of the bark beetle Ips paraconfusus Lanier, is prepar ed.
