Abstract:"(5R,6S)-6-Acetoxy-5-hexadecanolide (MOP) is the oviposition pheromone of the mosquito Cx. quinquefasciatus, a vector of pathogens causing a variety of tropical diseases. We describe and evaluate herein three syntheses of MOP starting from mannitol-derived (3R,4R)-hexa-1,5-diene-3,4-diol. This C(2)-symmetric building block is elaborated through bidirectional olefin metathesis reactions into 6-epi-MOP, which was converted into MOP via Mitsunobu inversion. The shortest of the three routes makes use of two sequential cross-metathesis reactions and an assisted tandem catalytic olefin reduction, induced by an in situ conversion of a Ru-carbene to a Ru-hydride"
