Abstract

Abstract Oxime ether analogs of sex pheromone components of the turnip moth (Agrotis segetum Schiff.) were synthesized by the acidolytic opening of cyclic enol ethers with O-alkyl hydroxylamine hydrochlorides. The compounds varying in chain lengths and in the position of the C= N double bond were studied by electrophysiological single sensillum recordings (electrosen-sillography: ESG). The ESG data indicate in general reduced receptor ...
