Lebedeva, K. V. published the artcileIsolation, identification, and synthesis of pheromone components of a Tashkent population of cutworm (Mamestra suasa), Product Details of C14H26O2, the publication is Agrokhimiya (1990), 115-25, database is CAplus.
Major constituents of the volatile fraction of the M. suasa pheromone were decanal, dodedecenyl acetate, tridecanol, hexadecanol, and Z-11-hexadecenyl acetate (I) (1.66:1.00:1.34:0.01:176). I was also the main component of leachates from female glands. After the removal of the volatile fraction the electroantennog.-active fraction of the glands contained Z–11-hexadecenal, I, hexadecanyl acetate, octadecanal, Z-6,Z-11-hexadecadienal, and Z-6,Z-11-hexadecadienyl acetate (1.5:742.5:123:100:1:3). Thus, only I was common for all the 3 sources of the pheromone. It was used as the main component of attractants tested in the Asian and European USSR. I + Z-11-hexadecenal (100:10) was especially effective in the Voronezh area in summer, I + hexadecanyl acetate (200:20) and several other compounds were effective in the Tashkent area in spring. Different combinations were effective in the Issyk-Kul area in spring and in summer. None of these mixtures had an adequate selectivity.
Agrokhimiya published new progress about 16974-11-1. 16974-11-1 belongs to esters-buliding-blocks, auxiliary class Aliphatic Chain, name is (Z)-Dodec-9-en-1-yl acetate, and the molecular formula is C14H26O2, Product Details of C14H26O2.
