D. E. Plaumann, B. J. Fitzsimmons, B. M. Richie, and B. Fraser-Reid, Synthetic route to 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octyl pheromones from D-glucose derivatives. 4. Synthesis of (—)-multistriatin, J. Org. Chem. 47 941 (1982). 

In Schemes 8—12 above, the syntheses of some dioxabicyclo (3.2.1) octyl pheromones by acyclic transfer were discussed. We now consider another member of this series which has been prepared by cyclic transfer .
