Series of assays have been performed to cyclize the two main C10 aliphatic acids, (E)-9-oxo-dec-2-enoic acid (3) (queensubstance) and (E)-10-hydroxy-dec-2-enoic acid (7) (royaljellyacid) produced by the mandibularyglands of the honeybee Apis mellificaL. Queensubstance 3, resistant to thermocyclization, was cyclized by the action of polyphosphoric acid to the fulvene ketone 5. Triphenylphosphinediethyl
