Serricornin is a female-produced sex pheromone of the cigarette beetle (Lasioderma serricorne), which is a pest of dried foodstuffs and tobacco. We report a versatile and short synthesis of all possible 6,7-syn-isomers of serricornin, including the natural isomer. Starting from the SAMP and RAMP derivatives of diethyl ketone we obtained four different enantiopure and diastereomerically pure serricornins. The main advantage of this method is that only a single kind of chiral starting material is needed for the construction of three stereogenic centers. During the synthesis further useful intermediates including (R)- and (S)-1-benzyloxy-2-methylpentan-3-one (4) and (2S,3R)- and (2R,3S)-1-iodo-3-(methoxy- methoxy)-2-methylpentane (9) were obtained.

AbstractThe synthesis of a Miltochrista calamine sex pheromone and its diastereomer has been developed. The key steps of the synthetic approach involved Evans’ chiral auxiliaries and the addition of alkyne to aldehyde, which were firstly applied to prepare this sex pheromone and its diastereomer. The synthetic sex pheromone could be used to trap insects and study physiological and ecological questions of the lichen moth.
