ABSTRACT:
The novel sesquiterpene epoxides trans-(Z)-1-methyl-4-(1,5-dimethyl-1,4-hexadienyl)-1,2-epoxycyclohexane and cis-(z)-1-methyl-4-(1,5-dimethyl-1,4-hexadienyl)-1,2-expoxycyclohexane have been isolated from N. viridula adult males, and have been successfully synthesized. The compounds are useful for the production of synthetic sex attractants for N. viridula and its parasitoids.
