(Z)-9-Tetradecenyl nitrate and (Z)-8-tridecenyl nitrate have been identified in volatiles from virgin female cotton leafperforator moths, Bucculatrix thurberiella, and shown to elicit electroantennogram responses from male moths. A 100:2 blend of the synthetic compounds is highly attractive to male moths in the field, and these compounds are proposed to be components of the female sex pheromone.
