An efficient synthesis of muscalure from jojoba oil or oleyl alcohol

Synthesis of fluorolipids: 1-O-alkyl-2,3-O-diacyglycerols as targeted insecticides

“…Finally, hydride reduction of 8 afforded a fluoro alcohol 9 (84%) which was converted to the corresponding mesylate 10 for glyceryl ether preparation (Baumann, 1972; Baumann and Mangold, 1964). Preparation of 10 was accompanied by the production of a compound identified as the -fluorohexadecenyl chloride 20, the production of which was associated with the use of prolonged reaction times and undistilled methanesulfonyl chloride (Shani, 1979).…”

Quaternary ammonium salts derived from jojoba oil

“…Infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra provided monitors for the chemical change occurring in each reaction. Purity was determined by NMR (16). All NMR spectra gave the following: terminal CH3 as triplet at 5 0.92-0.94; an intense signal at 1.2-1.4 for all aliphatic hydrogens; a signal at 1.98-2.05 for allylic hydrogens; and a quintet at 5.20 (J=5 cps) for the olefinic hydrogens.…”

“…The mesylate (VI) was best prepared using (C2H5)3 N as a base. (When pyridine was used as a base, jojobyl pyridinium mesylate contaminated the product [16]). The iodide (VII) was readily prepared from the mesylate with NaI in acetone (see Scheme 3).…”
