Abstract

Abstract (3 S, 13 R)-3, 13-Dimethylheptadecane [(3 S, 13 R)-3, 13-dime-17Hy] is the major pheromone component of the western false hemlock looper (WFHL), Nepytia freemani. In comparative gas chromotographic-electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) analyses of stereoselectively synthesized isomers, 1 pg of (3 S, 13 R)-dime-17Hy elicited significantly stronger electrophysiological responses by male WFHL antennae than did 1 pg of ...
