  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>(4<jats:italic>R</jats:italic>,9<jats:italic>Z</jats:italic>)‐Octadec‐9‐en‐4‐olide, the female sex pheromone of the currant stem girdler (<jats:italic>Janus integer</jats:italic>), was synthesized in gram quantities by employing Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation (AD) and Jacobsen hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR). Crystalline (<jats:italic>R</jats:italic>)‐hexadec‐7‐yne‐1,2‐diol (87 % <jats:italic>ee</jats:italic>), obtained by AD and purified by recrystallization, was converted into (<jats:italic>R</jats:italic>)‐1,2‐epoxyhexadec‐7‐yne (87 % <jats:italic>ee</jats:italic>), which was further purified to 96 % <jats:italic>ee</jats:italic> by HKR. The epoxide was converted into the target lactone in 14 % overall yield based on hex‐5‐en‐1‐ol (11 steps). (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)</jats:p>
