- CAS No.: 4144-54-1
- Formula:C10H18O3
- Molecular Weight:186.25
IUPAC Name: 4-oxodecanoic acid
InChIKey: SPUWOYCLMKSXKU-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C(O)CCC(=O)CCCCCC
Biological Activity: 4-Oxodecanoic acid (4-Ketocapric acid) is a Sex pheromone component. 4-Oxodecanoic acid can be isolated from the sternal glands on the sixth abdominal segment of unmated female Vespa velutina. When mixed with 4-oxooctanoic acid at the natural secretion ratio of 0.78 in female wasps, 4-Oxodecanoic acid exhibits an attractive effect on male Vespa velutina. 4-Oxodecanoic acid can be used in population monitoring and control research on the invasive species Vespa velutina[1][2].
