(Z,Z,E)-1-CHLORO-6,10,12-PENTADECATRIENE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING (Z,Z,E)-7,11,13-HEXADECATRIENAL USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide (Z,Z,E)-1-chloro-6,10,12-pentadecatriene that can be synthesized without an oxidation reaction and a method for producing (Z,Z,E)-7,11,13-hexadecatrienal using the same without performing an oxidation reaction.SOLUTION: There is provided a method for producing (Z,Z,E)-7,11,13-hexadecatrienal, the method comprising at least: a step of converting (Z,Z,E)-1-chloro-6,10,12-pentadecatriene into a Grignard reagent, followed by a reaction with ethyl orthoformate to obtain (Z,Z,E)-1,1-diethoxy-7,11,13-hexadecatriene; and a step of treating the (Z,Z,E)-1,1-diethoxy-7,11,13-hexadecatriene with an acid to obtain (Z,Z,E)-7,11,13-hexadecatrienal.
