    Abstract: Production of a high efficiency arthropod repellent by chemically transforming a substance used by mosquitoes as an attractant, the lactic acid, as well as lactates, in this case (S)-ethyl lactate, which is an essential attractant for A. aegypti females. The hydroxyl functional group of lactic acid must be transformed into esters, and the carboxylic acid functional group into amides, since esters and amides are functional groups already present in other repellents, such as in the structure of DEET, IR 3535 and dimethyl phthalate. The ester functional group of (S)-ethyl lactate must undergo a reaction in which the acyl functional group is substituted by an amine of interest and the hydroxyl functional group must be acylated. The structure of an attractant, or a derivative thereof, is transformed into a high efficiency repellent.
