(+)-cis-3-Pinen-2-ol: Attractant for male cerambycid beetle,Monochamus alternatus hope

A monoterpene alcohol was isolated from paraquat-induced lightwood in pines and identified as (+)-cis-3-pinen-2-ol [(+)-3]. More than a certain amount of (+)-3 induced a laboratory flight response by the male cerambycid beetle,Monochamus altematus Hope, but (+)-3 stimulated no response by the female at any dose level tested. Compound (+)-3 was not detected in trunks of sound pines.
