Abstract:
In this work we synthesized the aggregation pheromones (S)-2-methyl-4-octanol and (4S, 2E)-6-methyl-2- hepten-4-ol in high enantiomeric excess applying as the key step an enzymatic resolution of 5-methyl-1-hexyn-3-ol.Keywords: Aggregation pheromones; (S)-2-methyl-4-octanol; (4S, 2E)-6-methyl-2-hepten-4-ol; chemoenzymatic synthesis
