Liu, F.C., Li, W.X., Wang, Y.C., & Lin, J. 1995 Convenient syntheses of some analogs of the sex pheromone of citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri (Risso).. Synthetic Communications 25(23): 3837-3843.

Notes: A series of structural analogs(4a-h) of (+)-cis-(1R)-3-isopropenyl-2,2-dimethylcyclobutanemethanol acetate, the sex pheromone of citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri (Risso), was synthesized from(+)-alpha-pinene(1) via intermediate, (+)-cis-(1R)-2,2-dimethyl-3-acetylcycIobutaneethanol(2).
