I. Tomida et T. Fuse, STUDIES ON STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS CONTRIBUTING TO PHEROMONE ACTIVITY IN MALE ERI-SILK MOTHS, SAMIA CYNTHIA RICINI .4. PREPARATION OF 4 GEOMETRIC ISOMERS OF (11E)-4,6,11-HEXADECATRIENAL AND THEIR EFFECT TOWARD MALE ERI-SILK MOTHS, Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 57(10), 1993, pp. 1760-1762
Four geometric isomers of (11E)4,6,11-hexadecatrienal were prepared, a
nd their pheromone activity towards male eri-silk moths was evaluated.
The EAG activity of each isomer was determined by the EAG-GLC method
in order of increasing activity to be (4Z,6E,11E)- and (4E,6E,11E)- >(
4E,6Z11E)- >(4Z,6Z11E)-hexadecatrienal.
