The present invention is directed to compounds useful as moth attractants and to methods for controlling populations of the tomato moth Scrobipalpuloides absoluta with these compounds. The compounds are 3,8,11-tetradecatrienyl acetates, 3,8-tetradecadienyl acetates, 3,11-tetradecadienyl acetates, and 8,11-tetradecadienyl acetates. Preferred compounds are (3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-tetradecatrienyl acetate, (3E,8Z)-3,8-tetradecadienyl acetate, (3E,11Z)-3,11 -tetradecadienyl acetate, and (8Z,11Z)-8-11-tetradecadienyl acetate. The compounds can be used as an attractant in moth traps comprising, in addition to the compounds, a moth restraint. Alternatively, the compounds of the present invention can be combined with a biocontrol agent or an insecticide for use as a moth control composition. Synthesis of (3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-tetradecatrienyl acetate is described.
本发明涉及化合物,可用作蛾引诱剂,并用这些化合物控制番茄蛾(Scrobipalpuloides absoluta)的种群的方法。这些化合物是3,8,11-十四碳三烯基醋酸酯,3,8-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯,3,11-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯和8,11-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯。首选化合物为(3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-十四碳三烯基醋酸酯,(3E,8Z)-3,8-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯,(3E,11Z)-3,11-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯和(8Z,11Z)-8-11-十四碳二烯基醋酸酯。这些化合物可用作蛾陷阱中的引诱剂,除了这些化合物外,还包括蛾约束。或者,本发明的化合物可以与生物防治剂或杀虫剂结合,用作蛾控制组合物。描述了(3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-十四碳三烯基醋酸酯的合成方法。
