Abstract

Thecis, cis- andtrans, trans-isomere of the primary alcohols octadien-(3,5)-ol-(1) (I), 15-acetoxy-nonadecadien-(10,12)-ol-(1) (IV), 17-acetoxy-heneicosadien-(10,12)-ol-(1) (V), 12-acetoxypentadecadien-(8,10)-ol-(1) (VI) have been synthesized and tested for effectiveness as attractant together with several intermediates and analogues using the Silk Moth (Bombyx mori L.) and the Gipsy Moth (Lymantria dispar L.)
