Each of 10 (Z,Z)-9,19 hydrocarbon dienes (28-37 carbons) found in female yellowheaded spruce sawflies,Pikonema alaskensis (Rohwer), was synthesized and found to be attractive to males by field bioassay. These dienes oxidize slowly in air, major products being aldehydes. One product common to all the dienes, (Z)-10-nonadecenal (Z10-19∶Al), and one from the 29-carbon diene only, (Z)-10-eicosenal, initiated flight and caused upwind anemotaxis in males in a greenhouse bioassay.Z10-19∶Al was incorporated into Hercon® controlled release formulations and was active in the field. The aldehyde could be useful for monitoring sawfly populations.
在雌性黄头云杉锯蝇(Pikonema alaskensis (Rohwer))中发现的 10 种(Z,Z)-9,19 碳二烯(28-37 个碳)中的每一种都被合成,并通过田间生物测定发现对雄性具有吸引力。这些二烯在空气中缓慢氧化,主要产物是醛。所有二烯共有的一种产物,(Z)-10-十九碳醛(Z10-19:Al),以及仅从 29 碳二烯产生的一种产物,(Z)-10-二十碳醛,在温室生物测定中引发了雄性的飞行并导致顺风趋性。Z10-19:Al 被掺入 Hercon®控释配方中,并在田间具有活性。该醛可用于监测锯蝇种群。
