Development of Novel (+)-Nootkatone-Fused Thiazolidine Derivatives as Potent Insecticide Candidates

To discover novel insecticide candidates, herein, a series of novel (+)-nootkatone derivatives were synthesized by introducing a thiazolidine moiety into (+)-nootkatone. Among them, compound 9x was identified as the most active candidate, with a final corrected mortality rate of 66.7% against Mythimna separataand an...
