Popis: | Insecticidal activity of croton, linaloe berry, rosewood, star anise, wintergreen oils, methyl salicylate and 8 analogs against Callosobruchus chinensis adults was assessed. The 24-h LC50 values against adult C. chinensis were 3.14, 6.68, 8.59, 8.90 and 10.23 mg/L air for wintergreen, star anise, croton, linaloe berry and rosewood oils. Analyses by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry led to the identification of 2 and 18 compounds from G. fragrantissima wintergreen and star anise I. verum oils, respectively. Among the compounds identified, methyl salicylate consisted of 99.9% of wintergreen oil and trans-anethole did 91.0% of I star anise oil. To elucidate structure–activity relationship of methyl salicylate and trans-anethole, fumigant and contact toxicities of methyl salicylate, methyl 3-hydroxybenzoate, methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, methyl 2-methoxysalicylate, methyl 2-acetoxysalicylate, methyl benzoate, salicylic acid, trans-anethole and 1-methoxy-4-propylbenzene were investigated. Methyl 3-hydoxybenzoate, methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, methyl 2-methoxybenzoate, and methyl 2-acetoxybenozate did not show fumigant activity. The 24-h LC50 values were 3.48, 5.36, 6.39 and 9.27 mg/L air for methyl salicylate, methyl benzoate, trans-anethole, and 1-methoxy-4-propylbenzene, respectively. However, all the compounds tested except methyl 3-hydroxybenzoate and methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate showed contact toxicity. The 24-h LD50 values (μg/beetle) were 28.89, 33.27, 33.56, 44.81 56.31, 38.59 and 69.20 for methyl salicylate, methyl 2-acetobenzoate, methyl 2-methoxybenoate, methyl benzoate, salicylic acid, trans-anethole and 1-methoxy-4-propylbenzene, respectively. Structural differences were identified that may contribute to understanding the insecticidal activities of methyl salicylate and trans-anethole. |
