The synthesis of new acetylenic and cyclopropane fatty acids, as potential inhibitors of the B-oxidation step in the proposed biosynthesis of the sex pheromone of the Egyptian armyworm Spodoptera littoralis, is reported. The biological activity of the compounds has been determined by in vitro and in

The control of Spodopfera littoralis sex pheromone biosynthesis has been investigated with synthetic pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN) and different labeled tracers using an in vitro isolated gland system. Responsiveness of the glands to PBAN stimulation was impaired by careless
## Abstract Synthesis of pentaβdeuterated intermediate precursors d~5~(E)β11β14:Acid (7), d~5~(Z)β11β14:Acid (10) and d~5~14:Acid (12) of the pheromone of the Egyptian armyworm __Spodoptera littoralis__ has been accomplished by a very convenient route starting from the commercially available 9βdode
Synthesis of tritiated sex pheromones of the processionary moth Thmmetopoea pityocampa and the Egyptian armyworm Spodopteru littoralis has been accomplished by a simple route involving tritiated sodium borohydride reduction of the corresponding aldehyde followed by acetylation of the resulting radio
