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.
本发明涉及用于吸引飞蛾的化合物以及使用这些化合物控制番茄飞蛾Scrobipalpuloides absoluta种群的方法。这些化合物是3,8,11-四十四碳烯酸乙酯,3,8-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯,3,11-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯和8,11-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯。首选化合物是(3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-四十四碳烯酸乙酯,(3E,8Z)-3,8-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯,(3E,11Z)-3,11-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯和(8Z,11Z)-8-11-四十四碳二烯酸乙酯。这些化合物可以用作飞蛾诱捕器中的诱引剂,除了化合物外,还包括飞蛾约束器。或者,本发明的化合物可以与生物控制剂或杀虫剂结合使用,用作飞蛾控制组合物。描述了(3E,8Z,11Z)-3,8,11-四十四碳烯酸乙酯的合成方法。
