Abstract

Both the enantiomers of rhynchophorol [(E)‐6‐methyl‐2‐hepten‐4‐ol (1)], the male‐produced aggregation pheromone of the American palm weevil (Rhynchophorus palmarum), have been synthesized by reducing their precursors, (R)‐ and (S)‐6‐methyl‐2‐heptyn‐4‐ol (2), which have been prepared by lipasemediated asymmetric hydrolysis of the corresponding acetate and propionate.
