• from Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria 85-10 [71]. A direct one step synthesis of 33 was achieved in 51% yield by Wacker oxidation using Pd/O2 [72] of the alkene 22, intercepted from the synthesis of the iso-C15 acid 4. Conclusion We have accomplished a highly practical synthesis of the homologous

• ][24][25], which influence the growth of fungi [22][23][26][27]. In most cases the bacterial volatiles showed inhibitory activities (reviewed in [20]). We, therefore, hypothesized that volatile compounds emitted by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria 85-10 may also play a role as antagonistic
