Stereochemical Effects in an Insect Repellent [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2001 Racemic 1-[3-cyclohexen-1-ylcarbonyl]-2-methylpiperidine repels blood-feeding arthropods such as mosquitoes, chiggers, and ticks. The compound contains two asymmetric carbon atoms and the racemate consists of four stereoisomers. Quantitative mosquito bioassays using Aedes aegypti (L.) showed that (1S,2'S) and (1R,2'S) configurations were 2.8-3.1 and 1 ...
