Application | (9Z)-Hexadecen-1-yl acetate is a key sex pheromone component of the brassy ringed cutworm (Mamestra configurata), isolated from the abdominal tip extracts of 3-day-old mated females. This compound plays a pivotal role in agricultural pest management: when combined with (Z)-11-hexadecen-1-ol in a 19:1 molar ratio, it forms a synergistic sex pheromone system that exhibits strong electroantennographic (EAG) responses and behavioral attraction in 2-day-old males. |
