Ethyl 4–[2–(Substituted Benzyl)hexyloxy]benzoates: Anti–Juvenile Hormone Agents with Juvenile Hormone Activity
We have recently discovered ethyl 4–(2–benzylhexyloxy)benzoate (KF–13) as a novel anti–juvenile hormone (anti–JH) agent (Furuta et al., 2007). This compound induced precocious metamorphosis in larvae of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, a clear sign of JH deficiency, and its activity could be completely counteracted by the simultaneous application of methoprene, a JH agonist. Although KF–13 induced ob...
متن کاملSynthesis and Anti–Juvenile Hormone Activity of Alkyl 4–(2–Phenoxyalkyloxy)benzoates and Related Compounds
Since juvenile hormone (JH) is involved in a wide range of physiological processes in both developing and mature insects (Riddiford, 1994), compounds that possess anti–JH activity are potentially useful not only as biochemical probes to assist in elucidating the role of JH in insect development and reproduction, but also as insect growth regulators (Staal, 1986). Several compounds including pre...
متن کاملSynthesis and anti-juvenile hormone activity of ethyl 4-(2-aryloxyhexyloxy)benzoates.
A series of ethyl 4-(2-aryloxyhexyloxy)benzoates was prepared and tested for their activity to induce precocious metamorphosis in larvae of the silkworm. Phenyl analog 5 showed activity comparable to that of the 6-methyl-3-pyridyl analog reported as a novel anti-JH agent. The activity of 5 could be fully counteracted by methoprene, a JH agonist. The ethoxycarbonyl group of 5 was essential for i...
متن کاملBioassays of compounds with potential juvenoid activity on Drosophila melanogaster: juvenile hormone III, bisepoxide juvenile hormone III and methyl farnesoates.
Metabolites of the 6,7,10,11 bisepoxide juvenile hormone III (JHB(3)), and other potential juvenoids, were tested for juvenile hormone activity using early instar or early stage pupae of Drosophila melanogaster. Importantly, methyl farnesoates were tested as they might have JH-like activity on Dipteran juveniles. Larvae were exposed to compounds in medium, or the compounds were applied to white...
متن کاملNew insecticides with ecdysteroidal and juvenile hormone activity.
Agrochemical research over the last two decades has resulted in the discovery of chemically novel insecticides that mimic the action of the two insect growth and developmental hormones, the steroidal 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and the sesquiterpenoid juvenile hormone (JH). Bisacylhydrazines are non-steroidal agonists of 20E and exhibit their insecticidal activity via interaction with the ecdyster...
