Abstract
D-Glucose was transformed stereoselectively into (7R,89S)-8-benzyloxy-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-9-octadecene from which both enantiomers of disparlure, (7R,8S)-(+)- and (7S,8R)-(-)-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane, sex pheromne of the gypsy moth, were obtained in four and three steps, respectively.Keywords
