Popis: Novel nereistoxin derivatives containing phosphonate were synthesized and characterized via 31P, 1H and 13C NMR and HRMS. The anticholinesterase activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated on human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) using the in vitro Ellman method. Most of the compounds exhibited good inhibition of acetylcholinesterase. All of these compounds were selected to assess their insecticidal activity (in vivo) against Mythimna separata Walker, Myzus persicae Sulzer and Rhopalosiphum padi. Most of the tested compounds displayed potent insecticidal activity against these three species. Compound 7f displayed good activity against all three insect species, showing LC50 values of 136.86 μg/mL for M. separata, 138.37 μg/mL for M. persicae and 131.64 μg/mL for R. padi. Compound 7b had the highest activity against M. persicae and R. padi, with LC50 values of 42.93 μg/mL and 58.19 μg/mL, respectively. Docking studies were performed to speculate the possible binding sites of the compounds and explain the reasons for the activity of the compounds. The results showed that the compounds had lower binding energies with AChE than with the acetylcholine receptor (AchR), suggesting that compounds are more easily bound with AChE.
