Various aspects of pheromone synthesis were reviewed by analyzing 61 synthetic examples from 9 different structural categories of pheromones. Syntheses executed with new methodologies such as organoborane reactions, organotransition metal chemistry including ring-closing olefin metathesis, asymmetric epoxidations and dihydroxylations, and enzymatic reactions are selected to illustrate the usefulness of modern new reactions.
通过分析来自9种不同结构类别的信息素的61个合成实例，对信息素合成的各个方面进行了综述。选择采用新方法进行的合成，如有机硼烷反应、包括闭环烯烃复分解在内的有机过渡金属化学、不对称环氧化和二羟基化以及酶促反应，以说明现代新反应的实用性。
