The new version of photoresponsive imidacloprid analogues showed improved solubility in comparison with their azobenzene analogues. 1.2 to 2-fold activity difference was observed for these azopyridine-imidacloprids against house fly (Musca domestica) and cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora) upon irradiation.展开更多
