β¦ Synopsis
Pellitorine is an insecticidal compound isolated from Anacyckus pyrethrum roots. Its structure was determinded as N-isobutyl-E,E-2,4_decadieneamide (IVc), which was prepared easily from E,E-2,4-decadienoic acid, 1 and hence the preparation of the acid means the synthesis of pellitorine. Crombie' and Jacobson 2 synthesized the acid by the Knoevenagel reaction of 2-octenal. Also 0hloff3
and N;if 4 obtained a mixture of stereoisomers of the ester. We now wish to
