  • We investigated optimal condition for synthesis of (E)-2-hexenyl (E)-2-hexenoate (1) and (E)-2-hexenyl (Z)-3-hexenoate (2), the pheromone components of Riptortus pedestris, by Steglich esterification. The reaction with 1.1-1.5 equivalent of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), 1.5-2.0 equivalent of (E)-2-hexenol, and 0.1 equivalent 4-dimethylaminopyrinde (DMAP) to (E)-2-hexenoic acid in toluene or (Z)-3-hexenoic acid in dichloromethane led 1 and 2 in 76-78% and 87-91% yield, respectively.
