Abstract

Samples of (R) and (S)-epilachnene [(5Z)-11-propyl-12-azacyclotetradec-5-en-14-olide] were synthesized from (R) and (S)-norvaline. The diastereomericα-methoxy-α- trifluoromethylphenylacetyl amides of these synthetic samples, prepared using (S) α- methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetyl chloride, were well resolved by gas chromatography. Analogous derivatization and gas chromatographic analysis of a sample of epilachnene ...
