Abstract
The synthesis of the four stereoisomers of 6,12‐dimethyl‐2‐pentadecanone (1), the sex pheromone of the banded cucumber beetle (Diabrotica balteata LeConte), was achieved employing the enantiomers of citronellol (2) as the starting materials.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
