Synthesis of Epoxy Pheromones

Recently, an improved method for the preparation of C by lipase-catalyzed asymmetric acetylation of ( )-C was reported [33]. 

A new analytical method [34] for the enantiomeric purity of epoxide pheromones as well as a new method [35] for stereochemical inversion of saturated epoxides were reported by Oliver.
