Abstract
Abstract Lyonetia clerkella Linnaeus is one of the notorious pests that are found in orchards. A new and efficient asymmetric synthesis of the sex pheromone of this pest has been developed. Central to this approach were 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine N-oxide (DMAPO)/Boc2O-mediated N-acylation, Evans’chiral auxiliaries and the coupling of chiral tosylate with n-propyl magnesium bromide. Furthermore, we have demonstrated the scalability of the new acylation.
