In China, the B. tabaci Mediterranean (MED) (or biotype Q) species is threatening agricul- tural production all over the country as resistance to commonly used insecticides has increased. This situation highlights the need for alternative pest control measures. Cyantraniliprole, a novel anthraniiic diamide insecticide, has been widely employed to control Hemipteran pests. To monitor the levels of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci field populations in China, bioassays were conducted for 18 field samples from nine provinces over two years. Compared with median lethal concentration (LC^0) for the MED susceptible strain, all field samples had significantly higher resistance to cyantraniliprole. Furthermore, resistance factors (RFs) increased significantly in samples from Shanxi (from 5.62 in 2015 to 25.81 in 2016), Hunan (3.30 in 2015 to 20.97 in 2016) and Hubei (from 9.81 in 2015 to 23.91 in 2016) provinces. This study indicates a considerable decrease in the efficacy of cyantraniliprole against B. tabaci and establishes a baseline of susceptibility that could serve as a reference for future monitoring and management of B. tabaci resistance to cyantraniliprole.展开更多

The chemotactic activity of MIP-1α was tested by micropore filter method using modified Boyden chambers. Cell ELISA showed that the expression of MIP-1α protein in endothelial cells exposed to 1 μmol/L, 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L diamide was 1.9-fold, 2.3-fold and 1.7-fold respectively as much as that in the control cells, which was statistically significant by analysis of variance. In situ hybridization revealed that the mRNA expression of ECs treated with 1 μmol/L, 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L diamide was 1 3-fold, 3.0-fold and 1.7-fold as much as that in the control group, which had statistical significance ( F =188.93, P <0.01). The mRNA expression in 5 μmol/L dimide treated ECs, measured by nuclease S1 protection assay, was 3.4-fold as much as that in the control group( t =8 70, P <0 05). Chemotactic response(99.50±4.31 μm) to the culture medium conditioned by 5 μmol/L diamide treated ECs , which was stronger than that(66.47±3.25 μm) conditioned by the ECs ( F =404.31, P <0.05), was significantly decreased ( F =192.25, P <0.05) after adding MIP-1α antibody. It suggests that diamide, a lipid peroxidation inducer, could stimulate ECs to produce high level of MIP-1α, and might play an important role in atherogenesis by promoting the migration of peripheral blood monocytes into arterial intima.展开更多

The production of ^(99)Mo and the hydrometallurgical process of uranium ore face difficult problems of separation of uranium and molybdenum.In this study, the four phenanthroline diamide ligands were synthesized, and extraction and stripping experiments were performed under different conditions to evaluate the potential application of these ligands for separation of U(Ⅵ) over Mo(Ⅵ). With the growth of alkyl chain, the solubility of ligands could be greatly improved, and the separation effect of U(Ⅵ) over Mo(Ⅵ) gradually increased. The SF_(U/Mo) were around 10,000 at 4 mol/L HNO3. Three stripping agents were tested with the stripping efficiency of Na_(2)CO_(3)(5%) > H_(2)O > HNO_(3)(0.01 mol/L). The stripping percentages of the three stripping agents were all close to unity, indicating that the ligands had the potential to be recycled. The chemical stoichiometry of U(Ⅵ) complexes with ligands was evaluated as 1:1 using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry,ultraviolet visible spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The consistency between theoretical calculation and experimental results further explains the coordination mechanism.展开更多

The insecticidal activities of the new compounds were evaluated. The results of bioassays indicated that some of these title compounds exhibited excellent insecticidal activities. The insecticidal activities of compounds 19a, 19b, 19d, 19g, 19k and 19m against oriental armyworm at 2.5 mg·kg-1 were 100%. The larvicidal activities of 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d, 19e, 19g and 19n against diamond-back moth were 100% at 0.1 mg·kg-1. Surprisingly, most of them still exhibited perfect insecticidal activity against diamond-back moth when the concentration was reduced to 0.05 mg·kg-1, which was higher than the commercialized Chlorantraniliprole.展开更多

Surprisingly compound 12 w exhibited better insecticidal acitvity than commercialized chlorantraniliprole against Pyrausta nubilalis (0.1 mg/L) and Cnaphalocrocis Medinalis (2 mg/L). 3 D-QSAR and SARs statistical analysis revealed that title compounds with R^2 fixed as methoxy had the highest probability possessing high activity. The calcium fluorescence measurements on neurons revealed that E series compounds containing pyrazinyl may have a molecular target different from caffeine on ryanodine receptors rather than the voltage-gated calcium channel present on cytomembran.展开更多

All the compounds were characterized by H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The single crystal structure of com pound 8j was determined by X-ray diffraction. The insecticidal activities of the new compounds were evaluated. The results show that some compounds exhibited moderate insecticidal activities against Lepidoptera pests. Among this series of compounds, compounds 80 and 8p showed 100% larvicidal activity against Mythimna separate Walker, Plutella xylostella Linnaeus and Laphygma exigua Hubner at a test concentration of 200 mg/kg, which is equal to the commercial chlorantraniliprole.展开更多

In order to find more new RyRs activators as insecticidal agents, a series of 18 novel chiral anthranilic diamides were designed by introducing the D-alanine acid and D-serine acid esters as well as trifluoroethoxyl group into the anthranilic diamide skeleton and synthesized successfully based on anthranilic diamide and FKI-1033 structures. The structures of the title compounds Ia–i and IIa–i were confirmed by melting points,~1H NMR,^(13)C NMR, elemental analysis and specific optical rotation analysis.The preliminary bioassay results indicated that most of the title compounds exhibited considerable larvicidal activities against oriental armyworm at 10 mg/L, especially Ib, Ie and IIh showed remarkable insecticidal activities at 0.5 mg/L. The larvicidal activity against diamondback moth of Ia and IId were 80%and 90% respectively at 0.0001 mg/L, which was similar to that of chlorantraniliprole. The relationship between structure and insecticidal activity was analyzed to reveal a possible co-regulated effect of the chiral amino acid ester, halogen atom or cyano group, and trifluoroethyloxyl group of the skeleton structures of the title compounds, which will provide useful information for guiding the design and discovery of new RyRs activators and insecticidal agrochemicals.展开更多

In order to develop innovative scaffolds with high insecticidal activity, two series of N-pyridylpyrazole derivatives containing N-(tert-butyl)benzohydrazide substructures were designed and synthesized. Their insecticidal activities against oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) were evaluated. Preliminary bioassay results revealed that some of the new compounds exhibited good insecticidal activity against the oriental armyworm and diamondback moth. The mode of action of these compounds were verified using calcium-imaging technique and the results showed that some new compounds could effectively modulate the insect cytosolic Ca^2+ level, and break the cellular calcium homeostasis, indicating some of these compounds were potent activators of the RyRs.展开更多

In order to search for novel candidates, a series of diamides containing biphenyl substructure were designed and synthesized.Their insecticidal activities against armyworms(Mythimna sepatara) and aphis(Aphis craccivora) were screened. The compounds with 3,5-dichloro-4-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl substituent were found to be insecticidal to armyworms with the similar symptoms to poisoning by flubendiamide. In this research, we presented a novel type of diamide insecticide as a lead compound for further optimization.展开更多

文摘Two series of novel anthranilic diamide insecticide containing trifluoroethyl ether were designed and synthesized, and their structures were characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The insecticidal activities of the new compounds were evaluated. The results of bioassays indicated that some of these title compounds exhibited excellent insecticidal activities. The insecticidal activities of compounds 19a, 19b, 19d, 19g, 19k and 19m against oriental armyworm at 2.5 mg·kg-1 were 100%. The larvicidal activities of 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d, 19e, 19g and 19n against diamond-back moth were 100% at 0.1 mg·kg-1. Surprisingly, most of them still exhibited perfect insecticidal activity against diamond-back moth when the concentration was reduced to 0.05 mg·kg-1, which was higher than the commercialized Chlorantraniliprole.

文摘Spodoptera frugiperda(Lepidoptera:Noctuidae)is a widely distributed pest of corn.Since it invaded China in 2018,it has caused serious damage to local corn production.Chlorantraniliprole,an anthranilic diamide insecticide,has been widely used to control lepidopteran pests.Tetrachloropyramid is a new allosteric modulator insecticide devel-oped based on chlorantraniliprole,so it has a similar mechanism and insecticidal effect.In this study,we investigated resistance levels to chlorantraniliprole and tetrachloropyramid in S.frugiperda from 13 populations in China.Among the populations tested,the relative highest resistance to chlorantraniliprole occurred in the Guangzhou population,and the most susceptible to chlorantraniliprole was found in the Wuhan population.The lethal dosage LD50 value of the Guangzhou population against chlorantraniliprole was 27.8-fold higher than that of the Wuhan population.Minimal differences were observed among 5".frugiperda populations in terms of sensitivity to tetrachloropyramid.Heterozygous mutations at the 14734 site of the ryanodine receptor(RyR)were found,while no mutations were found in the G4891 site.The mutations were detected in only two of the 786 individuals analyzed one from the Qinzhou population and other from the Anshun population(frequency below 2%in both cases).There were no significant differences in the expression levels of RyR between Guangzhou and Wuhan populations.In summary,our results indicate that:(i)S.frugiperda has low resistance levels to diamide insecticides in China;and(ii)the differences in relative resistance among the 13 populations analyzed are not caused by the mutations in RyR or the expression of RyR.

文摘Insect ryanodine receptors(RyRs)are the targets of diamide insecticides.Two point mutations G4946E and I4790M(numbering according to Plutella xylostella,PxRyR)in the transmembrane domain of the insect RyRs associated with diamide resistance have so far been identified in three lepidopteran pests,P.xylostella,Tuta absoluta and Chilo suppressalis.In this study,we identified one of the known RyR target site resistance mutations(I4790M)in a field-collected population of Spodoptera exigua.The field-collected WF population of S.exigua exhibited 154 fold resistance to chlorantraniliprole when compared with the susceptible WH-S strain.Sequencing the transmembrane domains of S.exigua RyR(SeRyR)revealed that the resistant WF strain was homozygous for the 14743M mutation(corresponding to I4790M in PxRyR),whereas the G4900E allele(corresponding to G4946E of PxRyR)was not detected.The 4743M allele was introgressed into the susceptible WH-S strain by crossing WF with WH-S,followed by three rounds of backcrossing with WH-S.The introgressed strain 4743M was homozygous for the mutant 4743M allele and shared about 94%of its genetic background with that of the recipient WH-S strain.Compared with WH-S,the near-isogenic 4743M strain showed moderate levels of resistance to chlorantraniliprole(21 fold),cyantraniliprole(25 fold)and flubendiamide(22 fold),suggesting that the I4743M mutation confers medium levels of resistance to all three diamides.Genetic analysis showed diamide resistance in the 4743M strain was inherited as an autosomal and recessive trait.Results from this study have direct implications for the design of appropriate resistance monitoring and management practices to sustainably control S.exigua.

文摘To study the pesticide effect, action mode, structure-activity relationships (SARs) of anthranilic diamide insecticide and screen highly active pesticides, novel anthranilic diamide derivatives were synthesized.Bioassays indicated that all of the title compounds displayed 100% mortality against diamondback moth and oriental armyworm at 100 mg/L, among which 12 v and 12 w showed 100% insecticidal acitvity at 5 mg/L. Surprisingly compound 12 w exhibited better insecticidal acitvity than commercialized chlorantraniliprole against Pyrausta nubilalis (0.1 mg/L) and Cnaphalocrocis Medinalis (2 mg/L). 3 D-QSAR and SARs statistical analysis revealed that title compounds with R^2 fixed as methoxy had the highest probability possessing high activity. The calcium fluorescence measurements on neurons revealed that E series compounds containing pyrazinyl may have a molecular target different from caffeine on ryanodine receptors rather than the voltage-gated calcium channel present on cytomembran.
文摘In search of environmentally benign insecticides with high activity, low toxicity and low residue, a series of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives containing N-pyridylpyrazole was designed and synthesized. All the compounds were characterized by H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The single crystal structure of com pound 8j was determined by X-ray diffraction. The insecticidal activities of the new compounds were evaluated. The results show that some compounds exhibited moderate insecticidal activities against Lepidoptera pests. Among this series of compounds, compounds 80 and 8p showed 100% larvicidal activity against Mythimna separate Walker, Plutella xylostella Linnaeus and Laphygma exigua Hubner at a test concentration of 200 mg/kg, which is equal to the commercial chlorantraniliprole.

文摘Ryanodine receptors(RyRs) activator has become one class of popular insecticide because of its unique mode of action. In order to find more new RyRs activators as insecticidal agents, a series of 18 novel chiral anthranilic diamides were designed by introducing the D-alanine acid and D-serine acid esters as well as trifluoroethoxyl group into the anthranilic diamide skeleton and synthesized successfully based on anthranilic diamide and FKI-1033 structures. The structures of the title compounds Ia–i and IIa–i were confirmed by melting points,~1H NMR,^(13)C NMR, elemental analysis and specific optical rotation analysis.The preliminary bioassay results indicated that most of the title compounds exhibited considerable larvicidal activities against oriental armyworm at 10 mg/L, especially Ib, Ie and IIh showed remarkable insecticidal activities at 0.5 mg/L. The larvicidal activity against diamondback moth of Ia and IId were 80%and 90% respectively at 0.0001 mg/L, which was similar to that of chlorantraniliprole. The relationship between structure and insecticidal activity was analyzed to reveal a possible co-regulated effect of the chiral amino acid ester, halogen atom or cyano group, and trifluoroethyloxyl group of the skeleton structures of the title compounds, which will provide useful information for guiding the design and discovery of new RyRs activators and insecticidal agrochemicals.

文摘Anthranilic diamides have been proven to be a class of efficacious and safe insecticides targeting ryanodine receptors (RyRs) during the last decade. In order to develop innovative scaffolds with high insecticidal activity, two series of N-pyridylpyrazole derivatives containing N-(tert-butyl)benzohydrazide substructures were designed and synthesized. Their insecticidal activities against oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) were evaluated. Preliminary bioassay results revealed that some of the new compounds exhibited good insecticidal activity against the oriental armyworm and diamondback moth. The mode of action of these compounds were verified using calcium-imaging technique and the results showed that some new compounds could effectively modulate the insect cytosolic Ca^2+ level, and break the cellular calcium homeostasis, indicating some of these compounds were potent activators of the RyRs.

文摘A ring-opening process of 4-imino-1,3-thiazetidin-2-ones with NH2OH.HCI was described for the first time. Two different scaffolds of imidodicarbonic diamide were obtained selectively in good yields in the presence of organic base. The obtained imidodicarbonic diamides were demonstrated by X-ray diffraction analysis.
文摘Diamides acting on insect ryanodine receptors are an intensive research area now. In order to search for novel candidates, a series of diamides containing biphenyl substructure were designed and synthesized.Their insecticidal activities against armyworms(Mythimna sepatara) and aphis(Aphis craccivora) were screened. The compounds with 3,5-dichloro-4-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl substituent were found to be insecticidal to armyworms with the similar symptoms to poisoning by flubendiamide. In this research, we presented a novel type of diamide insecticide as a lead compound for further optimization.
