The synthesis has been effected of octa-2E,6E-diene-1,8-diol diisovalerate - the sex pheromone of the Crimean click beetle Agriotes tauricus - by the carboxymethylenation of the readilly available 6-methylhept-5-en-2-one, the allyl oxidation of a terminal methyl group, reduction of the ester fraction, and interaction of the diol so obtained with isovaleryl chloride.The required pheromone can also bee obtained from available cyclic oligomers of isoprene.

The first example of formylation of allylzinc reagents using S-phenyl thioformate is presented. The reaction proceeded under mild conditions without any transition-metal catalyst, forming quaternary carbon centers with reactive functionalities, such as formyl and vinyl groups. Moreover, Barbier-type formylation of an allylic bromide with a sterically demanding thioformate was achieved. As a preliminary result, asymmetric formylation was conducted using a menthol-derived chiral thioformate.

An uncharacterized terpene cyclase from Streptomyces pratensis was identified as (+)-(1(10)E,4E,6S,7R)-germacradien-6-ol synthase. The enzyme product exists as two interconvertible conformers, resulting in complex NMR spectra. For the complete assignment of NMR data, all fifteen (13C1)FPP isotopomers (FPP=farnesyl diphosphate) and (13C15)FPP were synthesized and enzymatically converted. The products were analyzed using various NMR techniques, including 13C, 13C COSY experiments. The (13C)FPP isotopomers were also used to investigate the thermal rearrangement and EI fragmentation of the enzyme product. All 15 isotopomers of (13C1)- and fully labeled (13C15)farnesyl diphosphate were synthesized and converted to the title compound by a newly characterized bacterial terpene cyclase from Streptomyces pratensis. The enzyme products were used for structure elucidation of the sesquiterpene alcohol, full assignment of NMR data and a conformational analysis, and investigation of its Cope rearrangement and of its EI-MS fragmentation mechanism.
