We synthesized all of the monomethoxycoumarins, 5-alkoxycoumarins and their derivatives, and investigated their nematicidal activity against the phytopathogenic nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Among the compounds, 5-ethoxycoumarin showed the highest nematicidal activity. Furthermore, 5-ethoxycoumarin was comparatively harmless against both the brine shrimps, Artemia salina, and the Japanese killifish, Oryzias latipes.

This research was designed to investigate the metabolite profiling, phenolics content, and the trypanocidal, nematicidal, antibacterial, antifungal, and free radical scavenging properties of Motyka. The air-dried material was extracted successively with dichloromethane and methanol (UlMeOH). Two phases were obtained from the extract with dichloromethane, one soluble in methanol (UlDCM-s) and the other insoluble (UlDCM-i).

Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) has been identified as one of the ideal targets for the development of novel nematicides. However, the resistance of nematodes to fluopyram, one of the commercialized SDH inhibitors, is becoming a growing concern. Since expanding the structural diversity around an active scaffold is a useful strategy for drug development, herein a series of fluopyram analogues with a broad, biologically relevant indole moiety were synthesized and evaluated for nematicidal activity against C.

Chemical crop protection is one of the most cost-effective methods for agriculture, as crop failures can be prevented, and sustainable growth can be enabled regardless of the seasons. Agricultural production must be significantly increased in the future to meet the food needs of a growing world population. However, the continued loss of established active ingredients due to consumer perceptions, changing needs of farmers and ever-changing regulatory requirements is higher than annually new active ingredients introduced to the market.

Diabetes mellitus, particularly type 2 diabetes, is a growing global health challenge characterized by chronic hyperglycemia due to insulin resistance. One therapeutic approach to managing this condition is the inhibition of α-glucosidase, an enzyme involved in carbohydrate digestion, to reduce postprandial blood glucose levels. In this study, a series of thiosemicarbazide-linked quinoline-piperazine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, to identify new agents for type 2 diabetes management.

Abamectin is an insecticide, miticide and nematicide that has been extensively used in agriculture for many years. The excessive use of abamectin inevitably pollutes water and soil and might even cause adverse effects on aquatic biota. However, it is currently unclear how abamectin exposure causes neurotoxicity in aquatic organisms.
