The application technology based on insect sex pheromone stands out among biological control schemes, with unique advantages of low dosage, high sensitivity, strong safety, high specificity, and environmental friendliness051, which has aroused widespread concern of the society. 2016 Central Document No.1 put forward the promotion of pesticides with high efficiency, low toxicity and low residue, and implemented pesticide zero growth action. [...]according to different strategies for constructing double bond, the chemical synthesis methods of sex pheromone are mainly divided into acetylide synthesis, Grignard coupling and wittig condensation method. According to different aldehydes and wittig reagents, it can be divided into two routes. 3 Application Progress In order to give play to the advantages of sex pheromone of Asian corn borer in agricultural production, such as high efficiency, specificity, environmental protection and crop safety, a large number of researchers have conducted field application research on sex pheromone of Asian corn borer, including field biological activity determination, core formula, core carrier, use technology, selection of matching traps.
