Abstract

The sex attractiveness pheromone of the red-sided garter snake,Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis, has been characterized as a mixture of 13 long-chain (C29-C37) saturated and monounsaturated methyl ketones. Samples of the major unsaturated ketones in the mixture, (Z)-24-tritriaconten-2-one (7) and (Z)-26-pentatriaconten-2-one (10), and their saturated analogs, 2-tritriacontanone (8) and 2-pentatriacontanone (11) were prepared by unambiguous synthesis. In field bioassay tests, male garter snakes were presented with natural and synthetic pheromone components both individually and as a mixture. Males exhibited courtship behavior to the synthetic compounds approximating the natural blend.
