Certain black bugs of the order Hemiptera, generally observed in the tropical regions of India immediately after the rainy season, give off a characteristic nauseating smell whenever they are disturbed or crushed. Substance A, the compound causing the odor, can be obtained either by extracting the bugs with petroleum ether (which no doubt disturbs them greatly), or it can be prepared by heating the compound below at 170–180°C for a short time. Give the structure of compound A.
