Both the enantiomers of 9-methylgermacrene-B (1) were synthesized from the enantiomers of methyl 3-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoate (2). The male-produced sex pheromone of the sandfly Lutzomyia longipalpis (the vector of the protozoan parasite Leishmania chagas
9-Methylgermacrene-B is confirmed as the sex pheromone of the sandfly Lutzomyia longipalpis from Lapinha, Brazil, and the absolute stereochemistry defined as S

The structure of the sex pheromone produced by the male sandfly Lutzomyia longipalpis, from the Lapinha Cave (Minas Gerais State) region of Brazil, previously proposed tentatively as the novel homosesquiterpene 9- methylgermacrene-B, is confirmed and the
