Abstract
Calculations of the charge of the pyrrolic nitrogen atom in the trail pheromone ofAtta texana, methyl 4-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate, as well as 17 analogs, showed that the most active compounds all had the same charge of −0.51 electrons on the nitrogen atom. It is suggested that the close value for this charge may be important in recognition by the receptor.
