Recently a new constituent of pyrethrum extract was described by Godin et al. (9) jasmolin II, the cir-pent-2-enylrethronyl ester of pyrethric acid. Jasmolin II differs from pyrethrin II in that the terminal double bond of the alcoholic side chain is saturated. This constituent forms about 3% of the total pyrethrins. Jasmolin II is less toxic to the insects tested than a similar concentration of pyrethrins. The pyrethrum extract was 16 to 17 times as toxic as jasmolin II to Aedes aegypti and Fhaedon cochlearia adults, less than 17 times... 

Anion photoelectron spectroscopy [37, 38] amd photodetachment techniques [39] provide accurate information on electron detachment energies of negative ions. Ten closed-shell ainions considered here exhibit sharp peaks, indicative of minor or vanishing final-state nuclear rearrangements, in their photoelectron spectra. Comparisons between theory and experiment are straiightforward, for differences between vertical and adiabatic electron detachment energies (VEDEs and AEDEs, respectively) are small. 

Table III displays VEDEs obtained with the Brueckner-reference methods discussed in Section 5.2 and augmented, correlation-consistent, triple- basis sets [41]. AEDEs include zero-point energy differences and relaxation energies pertaining to geometrical relaxation on the neutral s potential energy surface. The average absolute error with respect to experiment is 0.05 eV [26].

As mosquito larvae are relatively easy to kill with insecticides, any toxic spray residue is likely to be detected. Two species of mosquito larvae were used, the yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti L.) and the southern house mosquito (Culex quinquefasdatus Say). Tests with the southern house mosquito were made essentially according to the method of Campbell, Sullivan, and Smith (I), except for the kind of food supplied and size of containers used. 

In addition to the tests made on peaches and apricots, samples of prunes from trees that had been sprayed with parathion, DDT, DDD, basic lead arsenate, and toxaphene at the rate of from 1 to 2 pounds of these insecticides per 100 gallons of water were tested on larvae of Aedes aegypti. The trees had been sprayed on April 20 and June 16, 1948. The fruit was harvested on or about September 10. Prunes from trees that had been treated with 1 quart of tetraethyl pyrophosphate and 12 pounds of sulfur dust per acre on June 15, and harvested about July 6, were tested on larvae of the above named species. None of the prune samples tested in this study exhibited any significant toxicity to mosquito larvae as compared with the unsprayed check.
