Abstract: | The terpene alcohols 2-methyl-6-methylene-7-octen-4-ol (1), 2-methyl-6-methylene-2,7-octadien-4-ol (2), cis-verbenol (5), and trans-verbenol (6) and the ketone verbenone (7) have been isolated from frass and volatiles produced by males of Ips confusus boring in piñon pine. Females respond to naturally occurring and synthetic 1 in the laboratory bioassay; the response is intensified by the addition of 2 and 5. |
