2- and 8- functionalized 1,4,7,10-tetraoxaspiro[5.5]undecanes. I. Synthesis of (±)-E,E and (±)-Z,E structures

The synthesis of (±)-E,E and (±)-Z,E 2,8-dihydroxymethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraoxaspiro[5.5]undecane is described. The selective modification of one sidechain is examined for the (±)-E,E isomer, and a tetraoxygenated analogue of a commonly encountered insect pheromone is prepared. Synthesis of title compoun...

Summary:The synthesis of (±)-E,E and (±)-Z,E 2,8-dihydroxymethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraoxaspiro[5.5]undecane is described. The selective modification of one sidechain is examined for the (±)-E,E isomer, and a tetraoxygenated analogue of a commonly encountered insect pheromone is prepared. Synthesis of title compounds has been achieved starting from (±)-diisopropylidene triglycerol
