Description
Summary:Research results are summarized from a series of insect juvenile hormone analogs derived from 2-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-1-cycloalkanones, which have been investigated at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry in Prague during the past 20 years. At present, practical application of several prospective structures for insect control is under investigation. Biological activity values were determined to delineate the most important subseries of compounds and the most promising insect juvenile hormone analogs selected from the subseries. Carbamates, and in particular compound 47 proved to be highly active against aphids, cockroaches, flies, and many other insect species.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
