Enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution of racemic 1-octen-3-ol and field evaluation of its enantiomeric isomers as attractants of sandflies
Phlebotomine sand flies are medically important as vectors of the protozoan parasites that cause leishmaniasis and other bacterial and viral pathogens. Previous work demonstrated that both sexes of certain species of sandflies are attracted to 1-octen-3-ol (octenol). Since 1-octen-3-ol exists as two...
