Novel Pyrethrin Derivatives Containing an 1,3,4‐oxadiazole Thioether Moiety: Design, Synthesis, and Insecticidal Activity
JOURNAL OF HETEROCYCLIC CHEMISTRY(2020)
Abstract
A series of novel pyrethrin derivatives containing hydrazone and 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their insecticidal activity. Bioassays indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited good insecticidal activities against Plutella xylostella (P. xylostella), Vegetable aphids (V. aphids), and Empoasca vitis (E. vitis). In particular, compound (E)-2-((5-(2,2-dimethyl-3-(2-methylprop-1-en-1-yl)cyclopropyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio)-N'-(4-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene)acetohydrazide (6s) revealed excellent insecticidal activities against P. xylostella, V. aphids, and E. vitis with the 50% lethal concentration (LC50) values of 5.23, 7.07, and 1.61 mg/L, respectively, which were similar to or even better than those of chlorpyrifos, beta cypermethrin, spinosad, and azadirachtin. These results indicated that novel pyrethrin derivatives containing hydrazone and 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether moieties could be developed as novel and promising insecticides.
