Synthesis of Monomorin I, a Trail Pheromone of the Pharao Ant ( Monomorium pharaonis ) Katalytic hydrogenation of the 4‐nitroalkanone 5 yielded the cis ‐pyrrolidine ester 6 ( Scheme ). The preparation of 5 was accomplished by ethanolysis of the nitrocyclohexanone derivative 4 . Iodination at C(α) of 6 , followed by cyclization, gave a nearly 5:6 mixture of the two C(5)‐epimers 10 / 9 of octahydroindolizine. Epimerisation of the undesired 10 to 9 and subsequent transformation of the latter gave racemic monomorine I ( 1 ; 34% yield from 5 ).
