“…The abbreviations in Table 4 are made with respect to the acid moiety. Unsaturated ketones with a C 19 -C 21 chain have been identified from two species in Carposinidae (Copromorphoidea) [86,87], one species in Geometridae [88], and five species in Lymantriidae [89][90][91][92][93][94]. Their chemical structures have been abbreviated corresponding to the Type II pheromones without a terminal functional group, and supplying 'ket' to indicate the position of the carbonyl group.…”

As a consequence of the diversity of Lepidoptera, including 150,000 described species, interesting species-specific sex pheromone systems are exhibited in this insect group. The quite varied pheromones, which have been identified from female moths of nearly 530 species from around the world, are classified into groups of Type I (75%), Type II (15%), and miscellaneous (10%), according to their chemical structures. Additionally, many pheromones produced by male moths and butterflies have been known. While new sex pheromones from about 70 lepidopteran species have been reported in the last five years utilizing GC-EAD, GC-MS, LC, and NMR, our information about the pheromones is still rudimentary, and these kinds of semiochemicals remain an exciting research target for natural product chemistry. In addition to the overview of their chemical structures, this chapter deals with current methods for their identification. Furthermore, an actual application of the synthetic pheromones for pest control is briefly introduced.

“…The active components of the female sex pheromone of this species were identified by Tamaki et al (1977), and the following field studies led to successful control by mating disruption using synthetic sex pheromone (Sato, 1986(Sato, , 1992. As of 2000, the total area of pheromone-treated orchards targeting C. sasakii reached 5,276 ha in Japan (Sakagami, 2000).…”

The effects of temperature, age and mating status on the flight activity of Carposina sasakii were examined using a flight mill system. Flight measurements were carried out for 24 h under dark conditions. No significant difference was observed for the total flight duration of 2-day-old moths at temperatures between 14 and 26°C. The proportion of individuals that did not fly at all was less than 10% at 14 to 29°C, whereas the proportion at 11°C was 67% in females and 83% in males. Total flight duration did not show a significant difference through the ages from 1 to 7 days in either sex. Two-day-old females flew significantly faster than 1-day-old females, whereas flight speed did not differ among ages in males. Flight activity of females was similar to that of males and remained high even after mating. These results are discussed in relation to the control of C. sasakii by mating disruption in the apple orchards.

“…KOCIENSKI and CERNIGLIARO (257) and MORI et al (194) used an Eschenmoser cleavage of an alkyl substituted C1,p-epoxy ketone to obtain straight chain acetylenic ketones that were transformed into (580) (Schemes 99 and 100, respectively). Acetylenic alcohol (578) has also been prepared by Grignard reactions (258,259).…”
