Pheromone synthesis. Part 253: Synthesis of the racemates and enantiomers of triglycerides of male Drosophila fruit flies with special emphasis on the preparation of enantiomerically pure 1-monoglycerides

摘要

The racemates and enantiomers of triglycerides 1aee (2,3-ditigloyloxypropyl esters of palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids) of male Drosophila fruit flies were synthesized in three steps from the racemate and enantiomers of 2,3-acetoneglycerol (2) via 1-monoglycerides 4aee derived from the above fatty acids. Appropriate conditions were established for the preparation of enantiomerically pure 1-monoglycerides 4aee, and their enantiomeric purities were determined by NMR analysis of the corresponding bis-(R)-MTPA esters.
