Abstract

The efficiency of three azodicarboxylic acid derivatives and a stabilized phosphorane in the Mitsunobu type C C bond formation was compared utilizing the reactions of three nucleophiles of different pKa′ S and several alcohols of different structure types. The study established the characteristics of each reagent. The synthesis of two insect pheromone analogs was accomplished effectively using these homologation reactions.
