4-decenoate profile

4-Decenoate is a fatty acid ester with a distinctive odor that is often described as fruity or floral. It is naturally found in many fruits, including apples, pears, and strawberries. 4-Decenoate is also a component of the pheromone blends used by various insects, such as the honeybee and the fruit fly. It has been shown to have a role in attracting mates and regulating social behavior in these insects. In the context of honeybee communication, 4-decenoate is a key component of the queen mandibular pheromone (QMP), which plays a crucial role in regulating the colony's social structure and the queen's dominance. 4-Decenoate is also produced by some plants as a defense mechanism against herbivores. It is known to deter feeding and oviposition in certain insects. Furthermore, 4-decenoate has been studied for its potential applications in cosmetics, fragrances, and food additives. Its characteristic aroma makes it a desirable component in various perfumes and flavors. It is also being explored for its potential to enhance food quality and shelf life. The compound has been synthesized in the laboratory using various methods, such as the esterification of decanoic acid with a suitable alcohol.'
