The absolute configurations of citronellol, 2,3-dihydrofarnesol, and 2,3-dihydrofarnesal in male marking pheromones of bumblebees were determined by gas chromatography on a column coated with 60% heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl-6-O-TBDMS)-beta-cyclodextrin in polysiloxane PS 268. Pure(-)-S-enantiomers were found in the following species: Bombus (Bombus) terrestris, B. (Bombus) lucorum, B. (Pyrobombus) pratorum, B. (Pyrobombus) pyrenaeus, B. (Pyrobombus) jonellus, B. (Pyrobombus) impatiens, and B. (Ashtonipsithyrus) bohemicus

Absolutní konfigurace citronellolu, 2,3-dihydrofarnesolu a 2,3-dihydrofarnesalu ve značkovacích feromonech čmeláků byly určeny plynovou chromatografií na koloně pokryté 60% heptakis(2,3-di-O-acetyl-6-O-TBDMS)-beta-cyclodextrinem v polysiloxanu PS 268. Čisté (-)-(S)-enantiomery byly nalezeny u následujících druhů: Bombus (Bombus) terrestris, B. (Bombus) lucorum, B. (Pyrobombus) pratorum, B. (Pyrobombus) pyrenaeus, B. (Pyrobombus) jonellus, B. (Pyrobombus) impatiens a B. (Ashtonipsithyrus) bohemicus
