## Abstract The synthesis of [^14^C]β10,11βEpoxyβ(2E,6E)βfarnesyl diazoacetate in one vessel, starting from [^14^C]βglyoxylic acid, is described. This compound is useful as a potential photoaffinity labeling agent for juvenile hormone binding sites.

β¦ Synopsis
The azidophenyl 6.7-epoxygeranyl ethers ruc4c and ruc-rld and the azidobenzoate ruc-6 were synthesized pAzidophenyl 6,7epoxygeranyl ether (rac4c) shows a high afhity to the juvenile hormone binding protein of the migratory locust, Locusro migraioria. Fast photolysis is observed upon irradiation at 254 nm and at 300 nm. It is proposed that ruc4c is useful as a new reagent for the study of juvenile hormone binding proteins of insects in which the natural hormone is 1 a. The synthesis and binding prop erties of thc aryl ketone roc-4e and the vinyl ketone roc-7 are described also.

Two molecular forms of juvenile hormone binding proteins were identified in the larval hemolymph of Bombyx mori by photoaffinity labeling. One form having an M r of 33 kDa was present constantly in the hemolymph of the third to the fifth instar larvae while the other form having an M r of 35 kDa was
