A series of homo and heterocyclic alkanoates were prepared and evaluated as insect attractants toward Blattella germanica (L.) and Supella longipalpa (F.).Among these compounds, the tetrahydrofurfuryl alkanoates and 4-tetrahydropyranyl hexanoate showed relatively better activity.It was also observed that, in general, the five-membered compounds were better performers than their six-membered counterparts.The introdiction of an oxygen atom in the ring enhanced the activity, irrespective of the ring size.
