Various isomeric mixtures of pyrethroids were examined in topical application tests against houseflies, Musca domestica. On the basis of the activities of the separate isomers of 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (±)-cis,trans-chrysanthemate, it was shown that when combined in pairs to give the (±)-trans or (±)-cis or (+)-cis,trans mixtures the observed mortalities did not differ from those expected by simple additive action calculated by the harmonic mean. In contrast the (±)-cis,trans mixture showed considerable antagonism with a mortality only 60% of that expected. Similar evaluations using the separate and combined isomers of bioallethrin [(R,S)-3-allyl-2-methyl-4-oxocyclopent-2-enyl (allethronyl) ( + )-trans-[(1R,3R)-chrysanthemate] and the corresponding (+)-cis-(1R,3S)-chrysanthemate indicate antagonism calculated to be correlated with the content of the (R)-isomer of the alcoholic moiety. Hence the activity of the most active isomer of the “allethrin” series, (S)-3-allyl-2-methyl-4-oxocyclopent-2-enyl ( + )-trans-(1R,3R)-chrysanthemate, (S)-bioallethrin, is not fully realised unless it is present in pure form and a substantial part of the value of bioresmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl ( + )-trans-chrysanthemate] as a killing agent is lost when the racemic form is used. In racemic mixtures there is mutual antagonism between pairs of isomers so that considerable masking of activity occurs.  相似文献

An esterase or esterases in acetone powder preparations of mouse liver microsomes hydrolyze the cyclopropanecarboxylate ester linkage of pyrethroid insecticide chemicals derived from primary alcohols. The rate of cleavage of (+)-trans-chrysanthemates with various alcohol moieties decreases in the following order: 5-propargyl-2-furylmethyl; 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (bioresmethrin); 3-phenoxybenzyl; tetrahydrophthalimidomethyl esters. The hydrolysis rate of benzylfurylmethyl esters with various acid moieties decreases in the order: (+)- or (?)-trans-chrysanthemate; (+)-trans-ethanochrysanthemate; tetramethylcyclopropanecarboxylate; (+)- or (?)-cis-chrysanthemate or (+)-cis-ethanochrysanthemate. The trans-isomers of chrysanthemates and ethanochrysanthemates are hydrolyzed from 2.6- to more than 50-fold more rapidly than the corresponding cis-isomers. This enzyme system does not hydrolyze secondary alcohol esters, i.e., allethronyl (+)-trans- and (+)-cis-chrysanthemates.On intraperitoneal administration to mice, the (+)-trans-chrysanthemate and -ethanochrysanthemate of benzylfurylmethanol are of very low toxicity relative to the corresponding (+)-cis-isomers and the tetramethylcyclopropanecarboxylate. S,S,S-tributyl phosphorotrithioate (DEF) pretreatment increases the toxicity of these five compounds by 2.6- to more than 188-fold, with the exception of bioresmethrin whose toxicity is not altered. When the toxicity is increased, it is probably the result of esterase inhibition since DEF strongly inhibits the esterase activity of fresh liver microsomes while the mixed-function oxidase system remains active. The oxidase system metabolizes the chrysanthemates more rapidly than the ethanochrysanthemates of benzylfuryl-methanol. Depending upon the pyrethroid involved, the esterase or the mixed-function oxidase system, or both may be responsible for limiting the toxicity of these pyrethroids to mice.  相似文献

Capillary gas-liquid chromatographic analysis of seven commercial samples of bioresmethrin [5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (1R)-trans-chrysanthemate] demonstrated that each contained toxicologically significant amounts (1-5%) of the (1R)-cis-isomer (cismethrin) as an impurity. Intravenous injection of the labelled compounds to rats indicated that the concentrated solutions of these compounds may precipitate in the blood and subsequently become trapped in the lung. Slow release of the toxic isomer impurity probably accounts for the delay in appearance of symptoms after intravenous administration of impure bioresmethrin. Similarly, higher doses of cismethrin can be tolerated when concentrated solutions are administered intravenously.  相似文献

A pyrethrins-resistant strain of houseflies, 213ab, previously selected with a 1:10 (by wt.) mixture of natural pyrethrins and piperonyl butoxide, was further selected either with natural pyrethrins alone (strain NPR) or with resmethrin (strain 104). After 50 generations the two populations differed in their resistance to the natural and synthetic esters. Both were resistant to all pyrethroids. Part of strain NPR was immune and very much more resistant than strain 104 to the natural pyrethrins and allethrin, but it was only 2–3 times more resistant than strain 104 against the new synthetic esters resmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (±)-cis-trans-chrysanthemate), bio-resmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (+)-trans-chrysanthemate), pyresmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl pyrethrate) and 5B2Me3FC (5-benzyl-2-methyl-3-furylmethyl (±)-cis-trans-chrysanthemate). Pretreatment of both strains with sesamex diminished but did not eliminate resistance. Synergism was greater in strain NPR, especially with natural pyrethrins and allethrin. Both strains had great resistance to DDT indicating that resistance to DDT and pyrethroids is linked. Differences in resistance to different compounds suggest that at least three factors can confer resistance, one of which, pen, delays penetration and two others involve detoxication, one py a on the acid side of the ester linkage and the other, py b, on the alcohol side. Natural pyrethrins and resmethrin select for different groupings of these factors. Treatment with resmethrin does not select for py b presumably because this mechanism cannot attack the resmethrin molecule. Similarly when piperonyl butoxide is added to the natural pyrethrins py b is inhibited and so removed from selection pressure. Under these conditions, the strain produced contains the same factors as one selected by resmethrin and so shows the same small resistance to natural pyrethrins alone.  相似文献

The oral toxicity of 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl-(1R, cis)-chrysanthemate (cismethrin) to female rats decreased as their environmental temperature was raised. Acute oral LD50 values increased from 157 mg/kg at 4°C to 197 mg/kg at 20°C and to > 1000 mg/kg at 30°C. Cismethrin was much more toxic given intravenously when the LD50 was 4.5 mg/kg. This value did not change at different environmental temperatures. Irrespective of the environmental temperature, or route of adminstration, following the respective LD50's cismethrin caused tremors in rats when brain levels of 0.5–1.0 μg/g were reached and, at death, brain concentrations were 3.9–5.1 μg/g. These results suggested that the accumulation of cismethrin by the brain could be used as a model for the nervous system as a whole. The isomeric 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl-(1R, trans)-chrysanthemate (bioresmethrin) was about 50 times less toxic to rats than cismethrin. After an intravenous LD50, tremors started when brain concentrations were 4–5 μg/g. At death, brain levels were 25–35 μg/g. Plasma esterases were about equally active in hydrolysing cismethrin and bioresmethrin, whereas liver microsomal esterases hydrolyzed bioresmethrin over 10 times more rapidly than cismethrin. It is suggested that the lower toxicity of bioresmethrin is not only due to its faster metabolism but to an intrinsically lower toxicity at the critical site of action in the nervous system.  相似文献

Abstract

The toxicity of a number of topically applied pyrethroids has been tested in the laboratory against three species of locusts and parathion-resistant and susceptible strains of the Egyptian cotton leafworm. Bioresmethrin, resmethrin and 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (+)-cis-chrysanthemate (NRDC 119) proved to be extremely active against one or more of these pests and there were small but noteworthy improvements with the synergists sesamex and TBTP. The field potential of the pyrethroids is discussed against the background of environmental problems associated with some of the insecticides in current use.  相似文献

Pyrethrins and the pyrethroids, bioallethrin ((+) trans-chrysanthemic acid ester of (±) allethrolone), resmethrin* (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (±)-cis,trans-chrysanthemate) and bioresmethrin? (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (+)-trans-chrysanthemate) were compared for insecticidal activity against free-flying Aedes aegypti L. in a Peet-Grady chamber using kerosene solutions and an aerosol particle size. The relative potency for kill of female mosquitoes was 1; 2.3; 6.8; 8.0 respectively. In further experiments, resmethrin and bioresmethrin were compared as aerosol formulations in a Comet 4C aircraft using caged and fed female A. aegypti. Both compounds at 0.1% (by wt.) in pressure packs and 35 g of formulation per 100 m3 provided 99% kill. It is suggested that pressure packs containing 0.5% (by wt.) of either compound should be adequate for disinsection of passenger aircraft. However, bioresmethrin would appear to be the compound of choice in view of its greater biological efficiency under laboratory conditions, and consequent probable greater margin of kill in practice.  相似文献

Microsomal esterases of mouse and rat liver readily cleave the trans- but not the cis-isomers of resmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl chrysanthemate). The ester linkage also appears to undergo oxidative cleavage when esterase attack is minimal, i.e., with (+)-cis- and particularly (?)-cis-resmethrin in microsome-NADPH systems and with any of the isomers when NADPH is added to microsomes pretreated with TEPP. Metabolites retaining the ester linkage are detected in significant amounts only with (+)-cis-resmethrin in which case they are formed by oxidation at either the trans(E)- or cis(Z)-methyl group of the isobutenyl moiety with or without oxidation of the benzylfurylmethyl group. Metabolites of each acid moiety include chrysanthemic acid and up to six derivatives of this acid formed by oxidation at the trans(E)- or cis(Z)-methyl group yielding the corresponding alcohol, aldehyde, or acid, with chrysanthemate isomer and enzyme source variations in the preferred site of oxidation. The major identified metabolite of the alcohol moiety is either benzylfurylmethanol or the corresponding carboxylic acid depending on the enzyme system used. In the course of microsomal oxidation, a fragment from the alcohol but not the acid moiety of (+)-trans- and (+)-cis-resmethrin is strongly bound to microsomal components. These findings confirm in vivo studies on the isomeric variations in metabolism of the resmethrin components.  相似文献

A simple laboratory technique for determining the activity of two pyrethroids (5-benzyl-3-furyImethyl DL-cis, trans-chrysanthemate and 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl D-trans-chrysanthemate) against blackfly larvae (Simulium ornatum) is described. The results showed that the pyrethroids alone or with piperonyl butpxide were of similar activity to Abate (O,O,O',O'-tetramethyl O,O'-thiodi-p-phenylene phosphor-othioate) and Dursban (O,O-diethyl O-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridylphosphorothioate), insecticides of known activity against blackfly larvae. However, the pyrethroids cause rapid larval detachment in running water, and may be of value in controlling these insects when used in conjunction with another insecticide.  相似文献

Comparisons with standard susceptible insects showed that a strain of Tribolium castaneum, with a specific resistance to malathion and its carboxylic ester analogues, had no cross-resistance to topical applications of natural pyrethrins. Another strain of T. castaneum, showing resistance to many organophosphorus (OP) insecticides, was cross-resistant to pyrethrins ( × 34) and eight synthetic pyrethroids also applied topically; least cross-resistance occurred with resmethrin ( × 2.2), bioresmethrin ( × 3.3) and phenothrin ( × 4.0). Generally larger resistance factors were recorded with formulations synergised by piperonyl butoxide (PB). The greatest cross-resistance encountered was with unsynergised tetramethrin ( × 338). Apart from tetramethrin, factors of synergism did not exceed 5.7 with either the susceptible or multi-OP resistant strains. PB antagonised six of the nine pyrethroids against the multi-OP resistant strain. Antagonism also occurred with two of these six, permethrin (cis: trans ratio 1:3) and 5-prop-2-ynylfurfuryl ( 1RS)-cis,trans-chrysanthemate (‘Prothrin’), against the susceptible strain. Considering only formulations without the synergist, the most effective compounds against the susceptible strain, relative to pyrethrins, were bioresmethrin (2.7) and permethrin (2.4). Similarly with the multi-OP resistant strain the most effective compounds were bioresmethrin (28), resmethrin (14) and permethrin (6.6). Thus the LD50 (the dose required to kill 50% of the test species) for bioresmethrin against the resistant strain (0.14 μg) only slightly exceeded the LD50 for pyrethrins against the susceptible strain (0.12 μg).  相似文献

The three commercial synthetic pyrethroids containing a carbon–carbon triple bond, α-ethynyl-2-methylpent-2-enyl (1R)-trans-chrysanthemate, (S)-2-methyl-4-oxo-3-(2-propynyl)cyclopent-2-enyl (1R)-trans,cis-chrysanthemate and [2,5-dioxo-3-(2-propynyl)-1-imidazolidinyl]methyl (1R)-trans-chrysanthemate are reviewed with emphasis on their inventive histories. Their chemistry and efficacy are described briefly. The relationship between stereochemistry and the biological activity is also discussed. © 1998 SCI.  相似文献

The insecticidal activities to houseflies and to mustard beetles of the 19 methylbenzyl (±)-cis-trans-chrysanthemates were measured to establish the patterns of substitution that produce the greatest toxicities to these insects. The two species of insect differ in their responses to the various compounds in the series. The most active compounds to houseflies and mustard beetles are, respectively, 2,4,6-and 2,3,6-trimethylbenzyl (±)-cis-trans-chrysanthemates.  相似文献

Esters of 2,2-dimethyl-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid with appropriate alcohols are more active insecticides than the corresponding 3-isobutenyl compounds (chrysanthemates). (±)-Cis and (±)-trans forms of the dichloro acid are obtained by fractional crystallisation of the mixed acids or by hydrolysis of the ethyl esters separated by fractional distillation. The (±)-cis and (±)-trans acids are resolved into their (+)- and (-)-forms with α-methyl-benzylamine and threo-l-p-nitrophenyl-2-N,N-dimethyiamino-propane-1,3-diol respectively. As for the corresponding chrysanthemates, the (+)-cis and (+)-trans acids give esters more active as insecticides than their enantiomers.  相似文献

Isolated sartorius nerve-muscle preparations from Rana temporaria were irrigated in a chamber. Resting muscle membrane potentials and evoked end-plate potentials were recorded via intracellular microelectrodes. Multiple end-plate potentials appeared after the preparation had been exposed to a suspension, in Ringer's solution, of the toxic synthetic pyrethroid: 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (+)-cis-chrysanthemate (NRDC 119). It is thought that this effect was due to repetitive activity arising in the motor nerve fibers. The pyrethroid had no effect on the muscle resting potential nor on the amplitude or time course of the initial evoked end-plate potential.  相似文献

Houseflies (Musca domestica) on Danish farms have developed high multiresistance to organophosphorus compounds, after successive use of several OPs, mainly dimethoate, in recent years. Topical application tests 1971–73 with flies from many farms showed that the high OP-resistance did not involve resistance to pyrethroids (± the synergist piperonyl butoxide (pb)) above a level of 3–7 x, unless field pressure with synergised pyrethrum (py/pb) or other pyrethroids was applied. In 1971–72 moderate to high, often heterogeneous, pyrethroid resistance was found on a few trial farms treated frequently with pyrethroid aerosols (mainly py/pb) and in 1973 on most of 23 trial farms treated intensively with aerosols (or space spray) containing py/pb, bioresmethrin ± pb, tetramethrin/pb or tetramethrin/resmethrin. The effect of field pressure with these different pyrethroids on development of pyrethroid resistance is summarised and discussed. Maximum resistance ratios, R/S at LD50-LD95, were: py/pb (1:5), 40->100; bioresmethrin, 191–770; bioresmethrin/pb (1:5), 55–133; tetramethrin/pb (1:5), 171->200; tetramethrin/resmethrin (1:5), 78->370. The intensity of selection pressure with pyrethroids is believed to be an important factor. Although py/pb has been widely used as a supplementary fly control on Danish non-trial farms, pyrethroid resistance has only been found on a few of them.  相似文献

The actions of pyrethroid insecticides were tested on isolated giant axons of the cockroach Periplaneta americana, using oil-gap, single-fibre recording techniques. Current-clamp and voltage-clamp experiments were used to determine the actions of pyrethroids on axonal membrane potentials and ionic currents. Treatment with deltamethrin at micromolar concentrations caused gradual depolarisation of the axon accompanied by a reduction in amplitude of the action potential. This depolarisation was enhanced by an increase in stimulation frequency. Other synthetic pyrethroids: 3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimidomethyl (1RS)-cis-3-[(RS)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropyl]-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate, biopermethrin and its (1S)-enantiomer, (1R)-tetramethrin, S-bioallethrin, bioresmethrin and its (1S)-enantiomer, cismethrin, and 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (E)-(1R)-cis-2,2-dimethyl-3-(2-oxothiolan-3-ylidenemethyl)cyclopropanecarboxylate (RU-15525, ‘Kadethrin’) were investigated. The (1S)-enantiomers were inactive, but all the other pyrethroids tested, apart from deltamethrin, induced prolonged negative (depolarising) after-potentials. All the treatments with the active pyrethroids resulted in the appearance of a voltage and time-dependent ‘maintained’ sodium conductance. The duration of this ‘slow’ conductance varied considerably depending on the pyrethroid under test. Clearly, the effectiveness of pyrethroids on whole insects is not determined only by the degree to which they directly modify the properties of sodium channels. Nevertheless, voltage-clamp experiments on isolated axons readily permit direct comparison of the actions of different pyrethroids on the sodium channels of insect neurones.  相似文献

Conversion of chrysanthemates to their cyclopropane, episulfide, and epoxide derivatives by addition of methylene, sulfur, or oxygen, respectively, to the 2-methyl-1-propenyl double bond yields products generally of reduced toxicity but enhanced neurophysiological activity and photostability. The reduced toxicity is established with cis-cyphenothrin derivatives administered intracerebrally to mice and topically to house flies and with cis-phenothrin derivatives applied topically to American cockroaches and house flies, even in the presence of piperonyl butoxide for the house flies. In contrast, cyclopropane, episulfide, and epoxide derivatives of phenothrin are more potent than the parent compound in eliciting repetitive firing following stimulation of a cercal sensory nerve of the American cockroach in vitro. The individual 1′R and 1′S isomers of epoxides derived from (1R,cis,αS)cyphenothrin, (1R,cis)phenothrin, and (1R,trans)tetramethrin differ in potency by up to 20-fold for insecticidal activity, >30-fold for intracerebral toxicity to mice, and ～100,000-fold in the cercal sensory nerve assay. In each case the epoxide isomer of higher Rf is more potent than that of lower Rf when derived from a trans-chrysanthemate and vice versa from a cis-chrysanthemate.  相似文献

The insecticidal activities against houseflies (Musca domestica L.) and mustard beetles (Phaedon cochleariae Fab.) of the chrysanthemate bioresmethrin, and of 31 related 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl 2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylates with alkenyl, alkadienyl or alkoxycarbonylalkenyl substituents at position 3 of the cyclopropane ring are compared to determine the relative influence of the isobutenyl sidechain (as in chrysanthemates) and of the other side chains. Several substituents, in particular (E)- or (Z)-butadienyl or -pentadienyl, give considerably greater activity than isobutenyl but alkoxycarbonyl compounds are less potent.  相似文献

The activity of the (+)-trans-chrysanthemic acid ester of (±)-allethrolone (Bio-allethrin) is shown to be superior to that of the (±)-cis, trans-isomers (allethrin), against houseflies, two species of grain beetle and larvae of the yellow fever mosquito. The efficiency of the (+)-trans-isomer compares favourably with that of pyrethrins when each is used alone or with piperonyl butoxide.  相似文献

Four synergists are used to evaluate the relative contribution of esterases and oxidases in the metabolism of four pyrethroids, the (+)-trans- and (+)-cis-isomers of resmethrin and tetramethrin, by five insect species and by mice. Three of these compounds are known pyrethroid synergists, S,S,S-tributyl phosphorotrithioate acting as an esterase inhibitor and piperonyl butoxide and O-(2-methylpropyl) O-(2-propynyl) phenylphosphonate acting as oxidase inhibitors. The fourth synergist, 1-naphthyl N-propylcarbamate, is an esterase inhibitor selected by screening 65 candidate esterase and oxidase inhibitors for maximal potency in synergizing the toxicity of trans-resmethrin to milkweed bugs. Naphthyl propylcarbamate synergizes the toxicity of trans-resmethrin and -tetramethrin to milkweed bugs, cockroaches, houseflies, cabbage loopers, and mealworms but not to mice. The persistence of trans-resmethrin in milkweed bugs treated by injection is increased by the esterase inhibitors while that of cis-resmethrin is increased by the oxidase inhibitors. The optimal synergist varies with the species and the pyrethoid, being related to both the nature of the pyrethroid alcohol moiety and the trans- or cis-configuration of the acid moiety. This probably results from species variations in the relative significance of esterases and oxidases in pyrethroid detoxification.  相似文献
