Synthesis, Insecticidal Activities, and Structure-Activity Relationship of Phenylpyrazole Derivatives Containing a Fluoro-Substituted Benzene Moiety.

Fluorinated organic compounds represent a growing and important family of commercial chemicals. Introduction of fluorine into active ingredients has become an effective way to develop modern crop protection products. Given the particular properties of fluorine and high efficiency and selectivity of diamide insecticides, we designed and synthesized 27 anthranilic diamides analogues containing fluoro-sustituted phenylpyrazole.

Synthesis, biological activities, and SAR studies of novel 1-(2-chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole derivatives.

In order to search for the new ryanodine receptor (RyR) regulator, a series of 35 novel fluoro-substituted compounds introduced 1-(2-chloro-4,5-difluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole moiety containing modified pyrazole heterocycle were designed and synthesized. Then, they were tested for the insecticidal activities against Mythimna separata and Plutella xylostella in our greenhouse. After a systematic biological screening, it was found out that IVc showed 50% larvicidal activities against Mythimna separata at 0.

Sulforaphane Analogues with Heterocyclic Moieties: Syntheses and Inhibitory Activities against Cancer Cell Lines.

Recent studies have shown that sulforaphane (SFN) selectively inhibits the growth of ALDH⁺ breast cancer stem-like cells.Herein, a series of SFN analogues were synthesized and evaluated against breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and SUM-159, and the leukemia stem cell-like cell line KG-1a. These SFN analogues were characterized by the replacement of the methyl group with heterocyclic moieties, and the replacement of the sulfoxide group with sulfide or sulfone.
