Four types of amide (C3; C28; C3-C28) conjugates based on 2,3-seco-18alphaH-oleanane and 2,3-secolupane mono- and dicarboxylic acids were synthesized. The range of diamide derivatives was supplemented with C3-C3' and C28-C28' dicondensed amides with two A-secotriterpene backbones educed by reacting monocarboxylic A-secoacids with biogenic amino acid lysine. Compounds with inhibitory action against herpes virus reproduction (EC50 8.7 and 4.1 McM) were found among the synthesized mono- and diamide derivatives containing an ethyl-beta-alaninate fragment. It has been ascertained that diamide with ethyl-beta-alaninate fragment combines anti-herpes virus properties and anti-HIV activity (EC50 5.1 McM). For active compounds, the maximum non-toxic concentration (MNTC)/EC50 ratios ranges from 9.7 to 40.8. The synthesized amide conjugates do not exhibit any marked cytotoxic effects against human tumor cell lines rabdomiosarcoma RD TE32, A549 lung carcinoma and melanoma MS.

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a critical component of tuberculosis first-line therapy due to its ability to kill both growing and non-replicating drug-tolerant populations of within the host. Recent evidence indicates that PZA acts through disruption of coenzyme A synthesis under conditions that promote cellular stress. In contrast to its bactericidal action , PZA shows weak bacteriostatic activity against in axenic culture.

Gel coating films comprising nanodiamonds organo-modified with 12-hydroxystearic (12-OHC ) and stearic acids were prepared and characterized. Because molecules with 12-OHC groups can convert solvents into thixotropic gels, Gemini-type diamide derivatives with two 12-OHC chains were also introduced as thixotropic additives into the gel coating films. Although the 12-OHC -modified nanodiamonds did not lead to solvent gelation on their own, they displayed an affinity for the thixotropic additive molecules.

Since the commercialization of diamide insecticides, including chlorantraniliprole, in 2007, the overuse of diamide insecticides for over a decade has resulted in excessive chlorantraniliprole resistance in , causing continuous economic losses. While RyR target-site mutations and detoxification enzymes such as cytochrome P450 have been studied as the leading causes of resistance, previous studies, including functional research and synergistic tests, have not confirmed a clear correlation between these factors and the development of resistance. Thus, transcriptome analysis was employed to investigate alternative strategies beyond mutation(s) in RyR or metabolic factors involving detoxification pathways that allow diamide-resistance to counteract the calcium ion imbalances induced by chlorantraniliprole effectively.

In searching for novel insecticide lead, 20 new meta-diamide compounds containing triazole were designed and synthesized regarding cyproflanilide as lead compound. All the compounds were characterized by H NMR, C NMR, and High-resolution mass spectra (HR MS). In preliminary bioassay, we found that one of the compounds: N-(cyclopropylmethyl)-N-(5-((2,6-dibromo-4-(1,2,2,2-tetrafluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl)phenyl)carbamoyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl) nicotinamide (16a) had high activity against the target organism Plutella xylostella at 1 mg/L and against the target organism Mythimna separata at 2 mg/L.
