Abstract:

In the northeast of Brazil, the strongly fragrant Araceae species: Taccarum ulei and Philodendron acutatum emit a floral scent called (S)-2-hydroxy-5- methyl-hexan-3-one ((S)-1). This compound (S)-1 is highly attractive to night active pollinators scarab beetles of the tribe Cyclocephalini (Figure 1). Herein, we describe the synthesis of the racemic acyloin (R/S)-1 from the aminoacid L-leucine as starting material.
