A Wittig Route to (Z)-13-Eicosen-10-one, the Pheromone of the Peach Fruit Moth, and Its Biological Activity Test

(Z)-13-Eicosen-10-one, an active component of the sex pheromone of the peach fruit moth was synthesized from 4-oxo-tridecan-1-al and heptylidenetriphenylphosphonium ylide by Wittig reaction. The key intermediate, 4-oxo-tridecan-1-al, was synthesized by three different methods. The biological activit...

Description
Summary:(Z)-13-Eicosen-10-one, an active component of the sex pheromone of the peach fruit moth was synthesized from 4-oxo-tridecan-1-al and heptylidenetriphenylphosphonium ylide by Wittig reaction. The key intermediate, 4-oxo-tridecan-1-al, was synthesized by three different methods. The biological activity test of the synthetic pheromone as attractant for the male peach fruit moth was tested at several districts in Korea.
