Abstract
- Juvenoids are juvenile hormone (JH) mimetics, with specific structural features and defined molecular size that disrupt the target insect development. Juvenoid activity (= JH-type activity) of various isoprenoid-based derivatives as insecticidal candidates of the insect growth disruptors (IGDs) type were rated against the house fly, Musca domestica L. The epoxidized decenyl and nonenyl phenyl ether derivatives have more active compounds than those of both parent alkoxidized or olefinic structures. The highest juvenoid potency was shown by 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl ethers of 8,9-epoxy-5,9-dimethy1-3,8-decadiene. Qualitative structure-activity relationships are offered to relate the chemical structure criteria to observed juvenoid-related activity. Differences in activity among the reported isoprenoid-based derivatives were qualitatively rationalized. This study advances understanding of the structural qualifications and activity determinants of isoprenoid juvenoids, which is important for the development of new filth flies eco-friendly insecticides.
