The major volatile component in the extract of the female sex pheromone gland ofScrobipalpa heliopa was shown to be (E)-3-tridecen-1-ol acetate (V). The identification was based on mass spectral analyses, comparison of retention times with those of synthetic compounds on polar, nonpolar, and liquid crystal gas chromatographic columns and microchemical studies. The latter included hydrolysis and reacetylation, and mass spectral studies of the derivatives formed by epoxidation and methoxymercuration-demercuration. Analysis of gland extracts by gas chromatography linked to electroantennography showed this component to be the only one with significant biological activity, similar to that of the synthetic compound. (E)-3-Tridecenyl acetate (V) attracted male moths to traps in the field while addition of theZ isomer (III) reduced the numbers of moths caught.
在 Scrobipalpa heliopa 的雌性性信息素腺提取物中，主要的挥发性成分被证明是(E)-3-十三碳烯-1-醇乙酸酯（V）。鉴定是基于质谱分析，与合成化合物在极性、非极性和液晶气相色谱柱上的保留时间进行比较，以及微化学研究。后者包括水解和再乙酰化，以及通过环氧化和甲氧基汞化-脱汞形成的衍生物的质谱研究。通过与触角电生理学相结合的气相色谱分析显示，这种成分是唯一具有显著生物活性的成分，类似于合成化合物。(E)-3-十三碳烯基乙酸酯（V）吸引雄性飞蛾进入田间诱捕器，而添加 Z 异构体（III）则减少了被捕获的飞蛾数量。
