Abstract
Identification of a range of aphid sex pheromones as comprising the cyclopentanoids (4aS, 7S, 7aR)-nepetalactone,(1R, 4aS, 7S, 7aR)-nepetalactol and the (1S)-and (1R, 4aR, 7S, 7aS)-nepetalactols required samples authenticated by 1H and 13C NMR. These and related compounds were provided by small scale synthesis and extraction from plants in the genus Nepeta (Lamiaceae). The subsequent discovery that the synthetic sex pheromones could ...
