Abstract: Sexually mature male stink bugs, Thyanta pallidovirens , release a male-specific blend of volatiles, including several sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, and the highly conjugated ester methyl (2 E ,4 Z ,6 Z )-deca-2,4,6-trienoate 1 . The latter compound was synthesized, and found to rearrange under GC conditions via a 1,7 sigmatropic rearrangement. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
