Description

(Z,E)-9,12-Tetradecadienylacetate is a synthetic pheromone compound with the CAS number 30507-70-1. This compound is a critical active ingredient in advanced integrated pest management (IPM) systems, serving as a highly specific and environmentally friendly insect attractant. It is primarily needed by manufacturers of agricultural and horticultural pest control products, as well as researchers in entomology and chemical ecology developing targeted insect monitoring and mating disruption solutions.

Application

• Primary Use in Pheromone Lures: As a key component in commercial pheromone lures and traps for monitoring and controlling specific moth species in agriculture and forestry.
• Mating Disruption Formulations: Incorporated into slow-release dispensers, sprays, or aerosols for area-wide mating disruption programs to reduce pest populations.
• Research & Development: Used as a reference standard and active ingredient in entomological research for studying insect behavior, olfaction, and developing new pest management strategies.
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM): A cornerstone of sustainable IPM programs, enabling precise pest monitoring without broad-spectrum insecticides.
• Specialty Crop Protection: Applied in the protection of high-value crops such as fruits, nuts, and vegetables where residue-free pest control is required.
• Stored Product Protection: Potential use in monitoring systems for moth pests in grain storage and food processing facilities.
