In continuation of our program aimed at the discovery of plant natural products-based insecticidal agents, twenty-two new ethers from furyl-ring-based acylation derivatives were prepared by structural modifications of fraxinellone. Their insecticidal activity was evaluated against the pre-thirdinstar larvae of Mythimna separata Walker in vivo. Among them, compounds 5 e and 5 j exhibited more potent insecticidal activity than toosendanin with the final mortality rates greater than 60%. Their structure-activity relationships were also discussed.展开更多
