Abstract
(R)(S)(E)-3,7-dimethyl-2-octene-1,8-dioic acid, (R)(S)(E)-1, also name d callosobruchusic acid, has been synthetized in five steps using a si mple reaction sequence based on the zirconium-catalyzed methylaluminat ion of commercially available 4-pentyn-1-ol, 2a, or its O-tert-butyldi methylsilyl ether, 2b.
