Draw the structure of (2Z, 6E)-3-ethyl-7-methyldeca-2, 6-dien-1-ol, the sex pheromone of the codling moth, a common agricultural pest that destroys apple crops. By spraying an apple orchard with this pheromone, the mating of male and female moths is disrupted, and moth populations can be controlled.

From a synthetic point of view, these compounds, despite their stabilities, are quite useful and can undergo reactions under special conditions and by specific mechanisms, such as the Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution (SAE) and the Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution (SNAr). Based on this, please answer the following items: (b) How would you prepare the following compounds starting from benzene?arrow_forwardCompound A has the molecular formula C14H25Br and was obtained by reaction of sodium acetylide (HC≡CNa) )with 1,12-dibromododecane. On treatment of compound A with sodium amide, it was converted to compound B (C14H24). Ozonolysis of compound B gave the diacid HO2C(CH2)12CO2H. Catalytic hydrogenation of compound B over Lindlar palladium gave compound C (C14H26), while hydrogenation over platinum gave compound D (C14H28). Sodium-ammonia reduction of compound B gave compound E (C14H26). Both C and E yielded O═CH(CH2)12CH═O on ozonolysis.
