Devise a synthesis of (E)-tetradec-11-enal, a sex pheromone of the spruce budworm, a pest that destroys fir and spruce forests, from acetylene, Br(CH2)10OH, and any needed organic compounds or inorganic reagents.
A key step in the synthesis of β-vetivone, a major constituent of vetiver, a perennial grass found in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, involved the reaction of compound A and dihalide B with two equivalents of LDA to form C. Draw a stepwise mechanism for this reaction. β-Vetivone contains a spiro ring system—that is, two rings that share a single carbon atom.

Like epoxides, aziridines are strained and reactive because the 60° bond angles of the three-membered ring deviate greatly from the theoretical tetrahedral bond angle. One step in the synthesis of the drug oseltamivir (trade name Tamiu, Section 3.2) involves the conversion of amine X to diamine Y, a reaction that occurs by way of an intermediate aziridine. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of X to Y. Indicate the structure of the aziridine intermediate, and explain the trans stereochemistry of the two amines in Y.arrow_forward
