Abstract: Terminal alkenes containing ester groups are converted to w-functional alkyl iodides through a hydroboration-iodihation reaction blinder a mild condition; All Of the three alkyl groups on borane can be used in this case. The insect sex pheromones of Törtrix Viridana and Adoxophes Orana Rod are synthesized in a higher (Z)-form purity by using the w-functiori terminal alkyl iodides.
