Abstract

The following compounds were identified as male pheromone components of the longhorn beetles Hylotrupes bajulus and Pyrrhidium sanguineum: (3R)-3-hydroxy-2-hexanone [(3R)-1], (2S,3R)-2,3-hexanediol [(2S,3R)-4] and (2R,3R)-2,3-hexanediol [(2R,3R)-4]. The syntheses of enantiomerically pure samples, enantiomeric separation by chiral gas chromatography and unambiguous structure assignment of the target compounds are described.
