摘要:
                                Selective regiochemical introduction of fluorines into methyl and methylene positions of (Z)-5-decenyl acetate provides analogues to probe the hydrophobicity requirements of the pheromone receptor site in the turnip moth, Agrotis segetum.  Perfluorobutyl-, difluoromethylene-, trifluoromethyl-, and tetrafluoroethylene-containing analogues have been synthesized and chemically characterized.
