The facile synthesis of lepidopteran female sex pheromones was achieved using ruthenium-based Z-selective olefin metathesis. The synthesis of these compounds provides insight into the reactivity and selectivity of the catalyst, which is markedly distinct from previous generations of metathesis catalysts. The development of new Z-selective catalysts and operating on a larger scale should make this methodol. even more selective and efficient. Compounds containing a variety of functional groups, including alcs., acetates, aldehydes, ketones, and epoxides, were easily prepared in a minimal number of steps from com. sources, including several seed-oil derivatives It was demonstrated that ruthenium-based Z-selective metathesis provides an attractive route to form complex internal olefins in good yields with high cis-selectivity, and could emerge as a viable alternative to other popular methods used to form cis olefins, such as the partial hydrogenation of alkynes and the Wittig reaction.
