The use of readily accessible chiral starting materials and lactone lactone rearrangement are the highlights of the present synthesis. The biological activities of the two enantiomers and racemic mixture were tested in a New Zealand vineyard. The (S)-(+)-enantiomer was significantly more attractive to P. longispinus males than the racemic mixture or the (R)-(-)-enantiomer.</p>1 aRamesh, Remya1 aBell, Vaughn1 aTwidle, Andrew, M.1 aGonnade, Rajesh, G.1 aReddy, Srinivasa  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/enantiospecific-synthesis-both-enantiomers-longtailed-mealybug-pheromone-and-their-0
