From the cuticular wax of sexually mature females of the German cockroach (Blattella germanica), Fukami and coworkers isolated 3,11-dimethyl-2-nonacosanone (L) as the sex pheromone which elicited typical courting behavior in males inclucing wing-raising. 2 A number of syntheses were reported yieldin
Simple esters (e.g. acetate) of erythro-3,7-dimethylpentadecan-2-01 (1\_) are major components of the sex attractant of several species of pine saw-flies (e.g. Neodiprion sertifer, Diprion similis; Hymenoptera: Diprionidae)'. The stereostructure at C-7 was not reported (and is possibly of minor impo
## Abstract The synthesis of the four possible stereoisomers of 3,7βdimethylnonadecane (1) has been achieved by starting from the enantiomers of methyl 3βhydroxyβ2βmethylpropanoate (2) and (R)β(+)βcitronellic acid (3).
The synthesis or thc Tour stereoisomers or 6,12-dimethyl-2-penladecanone (I), the sex pheromone of the banded cucumber beetle IDicihrorico hulfaato LeConte), was achieved employing the rnaniiomcrs aT citroncllol (2) as the starting materials.
