Synthesis and insecticidal/acaricidal activity of novel 3‐(2,4,6‐trisubstituted phenyl)uracil derivatives

A series of novel 3‐(2,4,6‐trisubstituted phenyl)uracil derivatives has been synthesised and assayed for insecticidal/acaricidal activity. The assay indicated certain requirements for optimal insecticidal activity, which can be summarised as follows: (a) the substituents on the phenyl ring should possess hydrophobicity and electron‐withdrawing properties, and the sum of their volumes determines the level of activity; (b) the substituent at the 6‐position on the uracil ring should also possess electron‐withdrawing properties and hydrophobicity, together with the correct volume; (c) the 1‐position on the uracil ring should be unsubstituted for activity against Nephotettix cincticeps and Epilachna vigintioctopunctata, but substituents with length C3 to C4 may be optimal for activity against Tetranychus urticae; (d) certain substituents at the 5‐position of the uracil ring give activity against E vigintioctopunctata and T urticae, but not against N cincticeps; (e) a thiocarbonyl group at the 2‐position of the uracil ring is less effective than a carbonyl group. Of the compounds assayed, 3‐(2,6‐dichloro‐4‐trifluoromethylphenyl)‐6‐trifluoromethyluracil showed high activity against all the species assayed. © 2000 Society of Chemical Industry

Synthesis and insecticidal activities of pyridine ring derivatives of podophyllotoxin

In an attempt to find the biorational pesticides, we synthesized 12 pyridinyl derivatives of podophyllotoxin (PPT) and 4′-demthylepipodophylltoxin (4′-DMEP) in this study. Their structures and the α/β substitution at C-4 were confirmed by ¹H NMR, IR, MS spectral analyses and elemental analysis. The insecticidal activities were tested against fifth-instar larvae of Pieris rapae and the third-instar larvae of Cullex pipiens pallens at concentrations of 250 and 10 μg ml⁻¹. Four derivatives of PPT, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.5, showed higher insecticidal activities against P. rapae than PPT, while three derivatives of PPT, 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6, displayed higher mosquito larvicidal activity than PPT, with LC₅₀ values of 1.66, 3.96 and 1.54 mg l⁻¹, respectively. Interestingly, we also found that the pyridine ring derivatives of PPT showed delayed insecticidal activity, which is different from traditional neurotic insecticides. The results suggest that 4′-OCH₃ in the PPT derivatives is essential to keep the insecticidal activity and the insecticidal activities of pyridine ring derivatives of PPT are higher than that of the derivatives of 4′-DMEP, supporting PPT has the potential to be a lead structure of semi-synthetic insecticides.

Bicyclophosphorothionate antagonists exhibiting selectivity for housefly GABA receptors

2,6,7-Trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo[2.2.2]octane 1-sulfides (bicyclophosphorothionates) with various C_1–4 alkyl groups at the 3- and 4-positions were synthesized and tested for their ability to compete with [³H]4′-ethynyl-4-n-propylbicycloorthobenzoate (EBOB), a non-competitive antagonist of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors, for specific binding to rat-brain and housefly-head membranes, and for their insecticidal activity against houseflies. Among the 3,4-substituted analogues, 20 compounds were selectively active for housefly GABA receptors versus rat GABA receptors. The 3-alkyl groups of C₃ length and the 4-alkyl groups of C₄ length were tolerated in housefly receptors, whereas such bulky substituents were deleterious in rat receptors. The 4-isobutyl-3-isopropyl analogue was the most potent in housefly receptors (IC₅₀ = 45.2 nM ), and tert-butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS), with the 4-tert-butyl group and no 3-substituent, was the most potent in rat receptors (IC₅₀ = 62.2 nM ). Their receptor selectivities (rat IC₅₀/housefly IC₅₀) were 52 and 0.038, respectively. The insecticidal activity (LD₅₀) of 20 active analogues was well correlated with their potency (IC₅₀) in inhibiting [³H]EBOB binding to housefly-head membranes (r = 0.93). The results obtained in the present study indicate that the introduction of appropriate alkyl groups into the 3- and 4-positions of bicyclophosphorothionate leads to non-competitive antagonists with increased affinity and selectivity for housefly ionotropic GABA receptors versus rat GABA_A receptors. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry     

Design, synthesis, insecticidal activity and structure-activity relationship of 3,3-dichloro-2-propenyloxy-containing phthalic acid diamide structures

BACKGROUND: Phthalic acid diamide derivatives are among the most important classes of synthetic insecticides. In this study, a 3,3‐dichloro‐2‐propenyloxy group, the essential active group of pyridalyl derivatives, was incorporated into phthalic acid diamide derivatives with the aim of combining the active groups to generate more potent insecticides. RESULTS: Thirty‐one new phthalic acid diamides were obtained, and these were characterised by ¹H and ¹³C NMR. The structure of N²‐[1,1‐dimethyl‐2‐(methoxy)ethyl]‐3‐iodo‐N¹‐[4‐(3,3‐dichloro‐2‐propenyloxy)‐3‐(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]‐1,2‐benzenedicarboxamide was determined by X‐ray diffraction crystallography. The insecticidal activities of the compounds against Plutella xylostella were evaluated. The title compounds exhibited excellent larvicidal activities against P. xylostella. Structure‐activity relationships revealed that varying the combination of aliphatic amide and aromatic amide moieties, or the nature and position of substituent Y on the aniline ring, could aid the design of structures with superior performance. CONCLUSION: A series of novel phthalic acid diamides containing a 3,3‐dichloro‐2‐propenyloxy group at the 4‐position of the aniline ring were designed and synthesised. Structure‐activity relationships with the parent structure provided information that could direct further investigation on structure modification. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry     

Structural Effects of N-Arylcarbamoylpyrazolines on Calcium Uptake in Rat Brain Synaptosomes

N-Arylcarbamoylpyrazolines with various substituents at the para position of the carbamoyl benzene ring inhibited ATP-dependent Ca²⁺-uptake in synaptosomes prepared from the rat brain. The activity of these compounds was evaluated as log(1/I₅₀), the reciprocal logarithm of half inhibitory concentration, I₅₀ (m ), from the concentration–response curve for the inhibition of Ca²⁺-uptake. Among the compounds tested, methyl 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-methyl-1-[N-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)carbamoyl]-2-pyrazoline-4-carboxylate was the most potent, the I₅₀ value of which as 9·12×10⁻⁷ m . Variations in the activity in terms of log(1/I₅₀) were quantitatively analysed using a substituent parameter, showing that the higher the electron-withdrawing effect of the substituent, the higher was the activity. The substituent effects were similar to those on insecticidal activity against the Americal cockroach. The higher the inhibitory activity against Ca²⁺ uptake, the higher seemed to be the insecticidal activity. Methyl(4S) - 3 - (4 - chlorophenyl) - 4 - methyl - 1 - [N - (4 - chlorophenyl)carbamoyl] - 2 - pyrazoline -4-carboxylate had higher inhibitory activity against Ca²⁺-uptake and higher in-secticidal activity than the R-isomer, but the difference was greater in theCa²⁺-uptake system.     

Synthesis of novel derivatives of camptothecin as potential insecticides

In an attempt to find the biorational pesticides, a series of novel camptothecin derivatives were synthesized via a simple modification of the carbodiimide method using the combination of scandium triflate (Sc(OTf)₃) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), and their structures were identified by IR, ESR, HRMS and ¹H NMR. Their antifeedant effect and insecticidal activity against third-instar larva of Mythimna separate were examined. The results of preliminary bioassays showed that these compounds exhibited less potent antifeedant activity than camptothecin. Also, all of these derivatives of camptothecin showed delayed insecticidal activity, which differs from traditional neurotoxic insecticides. The results suggested that 20-hydroxyl group in the camptothecin derivatives is essential to keep the insecticidal activity and nature of the substitutes has a major impact on insecticidal activity of these compounds.     

Quantitative structure-activity study of insecticidal 2-methoxy-5-(substituted-phenyl)-1, 3, 2-oxazaphospholidine 2-sulfides against Musca domestica L. by topical application

The quantitative relationship between the structure of 2-methoxy-5-(substituted-phenyl)-1, 3, 2-oxazaphospholidine 2-sulfides (5-PMOS) and their insecticidal activity against the house fly. Musca domestica L., was analyzed using reported physicochemical parameters and regression analysis. The electronic nature of the substituent on the phenyl group of 5-PMOS has the most significant effect on the activity, followed by hydrophobic and steric effects; the optimum value of Σρ is zero and the more hydrophobic the substituents on the phenyl group, the higher the insecticidal activity. The plots of observed pLD₅₀, values against calculated pLD₅₀ values for compounds having substituents in the ortho-position deviated downwards from those of compounds having substituents at the meta and/or para positions. This ortho-effect, which reduces the insecticidal activity of compounds having substituents at the ortho-position, was expressed by a dummy parameter D, which has the value 2 for di-ortho-substituted derivatives, 1 for mono-ortho-substituted derivatives and zero for others. Thus, the highest activity was obtained for 2-methoxy-5-phenyl-1, 3, 2-oxazaphospholidine 2-sulfide, and the activity was decreased by the introduction of any substituents on the phenyl group.

Synthesis and bioactivity evaluation of novel spiromesifen derivatives

BACKGROUND: The development of environmentally friendly and novel structural pesticides is now an area of intense research in the agriculture field. Spirocyclic tetronic acids such as spiromesifen are typical compounds of this kind. In order to discover novel compounds with improved and broader-spectrum insecticidal activities, a series of spiromesifen derivatives were synthesised and bioassayed. RESULTS: The derivatives were identified by ¹H NMR and MS. Preliminary bioassays demonstrated that some bioactivities of compounds 5a to 5u were better and had a broader spectrum than the lead compound spiromesifen. Moreover, these compounds showed better insecticidal activities against Mythimna sepatara and Aphis fabae than acaricidal activities against Tetranychus cinnabari. Furthermore, LC₅₀ of 5s against Aphis fabae reached 1.09 mg L⁻¹. At the same time, compounds 5g, 5i, 5k and 5r also warrant further study because of their superior bioactivities to spiromesifen. What is more, suitable carbon chain length in the 4-position ester and the log P value of these spiromesifen derivatives dramatically influenced their insecticidal activities. Butyric or pentanoic ester and a log P value of 4.0–6.0 may be preferred. CONCLUSION: The present work demonstrates that some spiromesifen derivatives can be used as potential lead compounds for developing novel insecticides and acaricides.

Design, synthesis and insecticidal activities of novel pyrazole amides containing hydrazone substructures

BACKGROUND: Pyrazole and hydrazone derivatives possess good insecticidal activities; their substructural units are widely used in pesticide design. In an effort to discover new molecules with good insecticidal activities, a series of pyrazole amide derivatives containing hydrazone substructures were synthesised and bioassayed. RESULTS: Bioassays demonstrated that some of the title compounds exhibited notable control of Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus), Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner), Culex pipiens pallens, Laphygma exigua (Hübner), Spodoptera litura (Fabricius), Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) and Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) at 5, 10, 0.25, 200, 20, 100 and 500 mg L^?1 respectively. Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) based on the bioactivities for P. xylostella was studied; the values of q² and r² for the CoMFA model were 0.701 and 0.964 respectively. CONCLUSION: Some of the title compounds displayed good and broad‐spectrum insecticidal activities against different insect species; the CoMFA model revealed that a bulky and negatively charged group at the 4‐position of benzene could enhance insecticidal activity. These results could provide useful information for the design of novel insecticide containing substructural units of pyrazole amide and hydrazone. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry     

Synthesis and insecticidal activities of novel derivatives of podophyllotoxin: Part XII

In order to find the biorational pesticides, eight novel 4β-substituted phenoxyaniline derivatives of podophyllotoxin have been synthesized with significant stereoselectivity and improved yields by employing the BF₃·Et₂O/NaI reagent system and evaluated for their antifeedant effect against 5th instar larvae of Pieris rapae and effect on the development of 5th instar larvae of P. rapae as well as for insecticidal activity against P. rapae. The antifeedant activities showed that these compounds exhibited less potent than podophyllotoxin. Though these derivatives showed less potent antifeedant activities than podophyllotoxin, they acted as growth development inhibitor to 5th instar larvae of P. rapae, which were found that the animals treated with podophyllotoxin and its derivatives showed moulting disturbances and/or deformities. Also, the insecticidal activity results show that all of these derivatives of PPT showed delayed insecticidal activity, which differs from traditional neurotoxic insecticides. Among them, compounds possessing a 4β-phenoxyaniline moiety substituted (CO₂C₂H₅, Cl and OH) at para position exhibited greater insecticidal activity against P. rapae than podophyllotoxin.     

Studies on residues and the metabolic pathway of methidathion in tomato fruit

The residues and metabolism of methidathion [S-(2, 3-dihydro-5-methoxy-2-oxo-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-3-ylmethyl) O, O-dimethyl phosphorodithioate] and its secondary metabolites: demethyl-methidathion [S-(2, 3-dihydro-5-methoxy-2-oxo-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-3-ylmethyl) O-methyl O-hydrogen phosphorodithioate] ( IV ), the sulphide (2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-3-methylthiomethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-one) ( I ), tsulphoxide(2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-3- methylsulphinylmethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-one) ( II ) and the sulphone (2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-3-methylsulphonylmethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-one ( III ) were studied in laboratory-treated tomato fruit. The metabolites and residues of methidathion were determined for the applied doses of 1, 7 and 14 mg of methidathion kg^?1 of fruit. Methidathion was metabolised extensively over a 14-day period. The amount of metabolites formed was a function of both the applied dose as well as the time after application. Major water-soluble metabolites were found to be IV and the cysteine conjugate S-(2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-2-oxo-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ylmethyl)-L-cysteine ( VI ). The chloroform-soluble metabolites were identified as the oxygen analogue of methidathion [S-(2,3-dihydro-5-methoxy-2-oxo-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3-ylmethyl) O, O-dimethyl phosphorothioate] ( V ), the sulphoxide II , and the hydroxy compound 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxymethyl-5-methoxy-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-one. The oxygen analogue of methidathion ( V ) was found in small amounts, corresponding to <5% of the added methidathion. Demethyl-methidathion ( IV ) appeared to be a precursor in the formation of the cysteine conjugate VI . The sulphide I seemed to be more reactive in forming the cysteine conjugate than the sulphoxide II or the sulphone III .     

Pesticidal properties of parthenin (from Parthenium hysterophorus) and related compounds

Eleven sesquiterpene lactone derivatives of parthenin ( 1 ), obtained from wild feverfew, Parthenium hysterophorus, were prepared by chemical and photochemical transformations. The compounds tested were a pyrazoline adduct ( 2 ) of parthenin, its cyclopropyl ( 3 ) and propenyl ( 4 ) derivatives, anhydroparthenin ( 5 ), a dihydro‐deoxygenated product ( 6 ), a formate ( 7 ) and its corresponding alcohol ( 8 ) and acetate ( 9 ), a rearranged product ( 10 ), lactone ( 11 ) and hemiacetal ( 12 ). All these derivatives, along with parthenin, were tried for their antifeedant action against sixth‐instar larvae of Spodoptera litura, for insecticidal activity against the adults of store grain pest Callosobruchus maculatus, for phytotoxic activity against Cassia tora, and for nematicidal activity against the juvenile stage‐II (J₂) of the root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Antifeedent bioassay revealed that parthenin is moderately antifeedant. Among the derivatives, the saturated lactone ( 11 ) was found to be about 2.25 times more active than parthenin. The pyrazoline adduct ( 2 ) was found to be the most effective as an insecticide, with LC₅₀ values after 24, 48 and 72 h of 96, 43 and 32 mg litre⁻¹, respectively, which are comparable with neem extract. Compound 4 was found to be the most effective inhibitor of germination and seedling growth of C tora, with ID₅₀ values for germination, plumule length and radicle length of 136, 326 and 172 compared with 364, 738 and 427 mg litre⁻¹, respectively, for parthenin. Compound 10 was found to be the most effective in terms of nematicidal activity. The LC₅₀ values for this compound were 273 and 104 mg litre⁻¹, respectively, after 48 and 72 h compared with 862 and 512 mg litre⁻¹ observed for parthenin after 48 and 72 h. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry     

Synthesis and Structure–Activity Relationships of Miticidal 4,5-Dihydropyrazole-5-thiones

A series of novel 4,5-dihydropyrazole-5-thiones (DHPs) was synthesised by treating the corresponding dihydropyrazolones with ‘Lawesson’s reagent and evaluated for miticidal activity against two-spotted spider mites (Tetranychus urticae Koch). Of these, 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydropyrazole-5-thione, 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-ethyl-4-methyl-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydropyrazole-5-thione, 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydropyrazole-5-thione-4-spirocyclopentane and 4,4-dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazole-5-thione were highly active (pEC₅₀>4·0) and were more effective than the miticide dicofol (pEC₅₀=3·879), which has traditionally been used for the control of phytophagous mites. Structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies were performed on each position of the pyrazole ring of DHPs. The results indicated that the unsubstituted phenyl, 4-substituted phenyl and thioxo groups on the 1-, 3- and 5-positions of DHPs respectively were required for activity. Quantitative SAR studies using physicochemical parameters of substituents and the capacity factor k′ as a hydrophobicity index suggested that: (a) the activities of all types of DHPs examined were mainly dominated by hydrophobicity, (b) the bulkiness of 4-substituents of the 3-phenyl ring favoured the activity and (c) the log k′ optimum for all DHPs was 1·675, equivalent to a log P_ow value of c. 5·0.
