Three pheromones, (6Z,11Z)-hexadeca-6,11-dien-1-yl acetate (from Eudia pavonia), (5Z,9Z)-heptacosa-5,9-diene (from Drosophila melanogaster) and gossyplure, have been synthesized each by two consecutive consequences of nickel-assisted Grignard reactions with cyclic enol ethers and preparation of Grignard reagents from the resultant alcohols.
