(S)-Ipsdienol
(S)-Ipsdienol is a terpene alcohol. It is one of the major aggregation pheromones of the bark beetle. It was first identified from Ips confusus, in which it is believed to be a principle sex attractant.[1] It is suggested that the compound plays a role in interspecies communication between Ips latidens and Ips ini, facilitating reductions in competition for breeding material and/or mating interference.[2]

Synthesis
The compound has been synthesized from D-mannitol.[3] Alternative syntheses were realized through the asymmetric isoprenylation of correspondent aldehyde (prenal)[4] and alcohol (prenol).[5] Chiral resolution of racemic precursor has been found[6][7] to provide both enantiomers of ipsdienol in high enentiomeric purity and in preparative scale.
