STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS FROM D-GLUCOSE OF (-)-PARTIAL-DERIVATIVE-MULTISTRIATIN (COMPONENT OF THE EUROPEAN ELM BARK BEETLE, SCOLYTUS MULTISTRIATUS, AGGREGATION PHEROMONE)
I. Izquierdo et al., STEREOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS FROM D-GLUCOSE OF (-)-PARTIAL-DERIVATIVE-MULTISTRIATIN (COMPONENT OF THE EUROPEAN ELM BARK BEETLE, SCOLYTUS MULTISTRIATUS, AGGREGATION PHEROMONE), Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 4(12), 1993, pp. 2535-2540
A six step stereoselective synthesis of (-)-d-multistriatin -ethyl-2,4
-dimethyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane, 1] is presented, starting fro
m 2,4-Oethylidene-D-erythrose (2), which is readily available from D-g
lucose.
