Abstract
Abstract A novel, convenient and solely stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted E- alkenones has been achieved by InCl 3/NaBH 4 mediated chemoselective reduction of unmodified Baylis-Hillman adducts derived from vinyl ketones and cycloalkenones for the first time. The efficiency of this methodology in the practical synthesis of (S)-(+)-manicone and (S)-(+)-normanicone, two alarm pheromones of Manica ants, has been demonstrated.
