Abstract
The absolute configuration of the new bicyclic acetal 2‐ethyl‐1,5‐dimethyl‐6,8‐dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (1), identified as an aggregation pheromone of males of the beech bark beetle, Taphrorychus bicolor, was determined by unambiguous synthesis and NMR experiments. The syntheses of the racemates of both diastereomers and of optically pure samples are described. The natural product proved to show (1__S__,2__R__,5__R__) configuration.
