## Abstract The synthesis of (5__S__,9__S__)‐5,9‐dimethylheptadecane (1) as well as that of (5__S__,9__S__)‐5,9‐dimethyloctadecane (2) has been achieved by starting from methyl (__R__)‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐methylpropanoate (3a) and (__S__)‐citronellal (7).

Abstract
(5__R__,11__S__)‐5,11‐Dimethylheptadecane (1), the major component of the female‐produced sex pheromone of the western hemlock looper (Lambdina fiscellaria lugubrosa), was synthesized by starting from the enantiomers of methyl 3‐hydroxy‐2‐methylpropanoate (3). (S)‐2,5‐Dimethylheptadecane (2), the minor and synergistic component of the pheromone, was also synthesized by starting from (S)‐citronellol (4).
