Notes:
-Synthesis of both enantiomers of the Aspidiotus nerii sex pheromone and their diastereomers has been achieved using, as a key step, an intramolecular ester enolate alkylation reaction for the formation of the cyclobutane ring with a good control of the relative configurations of the asymmetric centers. Stereoselective synthesis of a number of other trisubstituted cyclobutane derivatives also proves the versatility of the methodology used for the synthesis of the Aspidiotus nerii sex pheromone.
