Olive fruit fly Dacus oleae is a well-known pest infecting the bark of olive fruit, leading to reduction of extracted olive oil properties. Among chemicals proposed for Dacus oleae population control, pheromone 1,7-dioxaspiro(5.5)undecane (DSU), Dacus pheromone, is considered as a promising agent, which is added in several traps. However, all proposed systems manage to sufficiently deliver DSU for only two weeks. Furthermore, an additional problem is the limited available amount of pheromone to use in such systems. To overcome this, in the present study, a novel synthetic procedure of DSU is described, including only five steps. Intermediate products were studied by High Resolution Mass Spectroscopy Electrospray Ionization (HRMS-ESI) (m/z), while the resulting DSU was further characterized by 1H and 13C-NMR. Synthesized DSU was further encapsulated in poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) microparticles in three different concentrations; 5, 10 and 20% w/w. Its successful incorporation was studied by FT-IR, XRD and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) while two procedures, liquid extraction and solid phase microextraction, followed by GC-MS analysis, was used for quantification of pheromone to microparticles. It was found that microparticles loading was over 85% for all three formulations. Its release showed a prolonged profile for microparticles containing 20% w/w DSU, lasting four weeks, while the quantity of DSU released reached 100%. These microparticles could be appropriate to control Dacus oleae population.
