Abstract

Dictyoprolenol, properly named (S)-1, cis-5-undecadien-3-ol, which was postulated as a possible precursor of male-gamete attractants by MOORE et al., was isolated from Dictyopteris undulata. Dicytoprolene was not detected in D. undulata and (S)-1, cis-5-undecadien-3-ol was not detectd in D. prolifera. This discrepancy is probably is probably due to a difference in the acylesterase activities of D. undulata and D. prolifera.
