The discovery of 2-hydroxymethyl-3-(3-methylbutyl)-5-methylpyrazine: A semiochemical in orchid pollination

Drakaea livida (Orchidaceae) is pollinated by sexual deception of the wasp Zaspilothynnus nigripes (Thynnidae). It is shown that the orchid emits the same compound, 2-hydroxymethyl-3-(3-methylbutyl)-5-methylpyrazine, that females emit when calling for mates. This novel pyrazine was isolated and iden...
