Abstract
AbstractAddition of methylhypobromite to methyl 10‐undecenoate (I), methyl cis‐9‐octadecenoate (II) and methyl trans‐2‐octadecenoate (III) yielded 10, 11‐dibromoundecanoate (IV), 10‐bromo‐11‐methoxyundecanoate (V), 9, 10‐dibromooctadecanoate (VI), 9(10)‐bromo‐10(9)‐methoxyoctadecanoate (VII), 2, 3‐dibromooctadecanoate (VIII) and 2(3)‐bromo‐3(2)‐methoxyoctadecanoate (IX), respectively. The structure of 10‐bromo‐11‐methoxyundecanoate (V) was confirmed by debromination with zinc amalgam in acetic acid and mass spectrometry. The structures of the products were elucidated on the basis of their combustion and spectral data.
