Abstract

Synthesis of penta‐deuterated intermediate precursors d~5~(E)‐11‐14:Acid (7), d~5~(Z)‐11‐14:Acid (10) and d~5~14:Acid (12) of the pheromone of the Egyptian armyworm Spodoptera littoralis has been accomplished by a very convenient route starting from the commercially available 9‐dodecyn‐1‐ol. The processes occur with a high to excellent chemical and stereochemical yields and the compounds have been successfully used in the confirmation of the pheromone composition and biosynthesis of our strain.

Bombykol [(10E,12Z)-10,12-hexadecadien-1-ol], the sex pheromone of the silkworm moth (Bombyx mori L.), is biosynthesized from hexadecanoate by three successive steps; i.e., D11desaturation, D10,12-desaturation, and reduction of the acyl group. 11,12-Erythro-and 11,12-threo-[7,8,11,12-D 4 ]hexadecano
