TY - JOUR AU - Wang, Qingmin AB - Numerous compounds containing urea bridge and biurea moieties are used in a variety of fields, especially as drugs and pesticides. To search for novel, environmentally benign and ecologically safe pesticides with unique modes of action, four series of novel triazone analogues containing urea, thiourea, biurea, and thiobiurea bridge, respectively, were designed and synthesized, according to various calcium ion channel inhibitors which act on transient receptor potential protein. Their structures were characterized by $${}^{1}\mathrm{H}$$ 1 H NMR, $${}^{13}\mathrm{C}$$ 13 C NMR, and HRMS. The insecticidal activities of the new compounds were obtained. The bioassay results indicated that compounds containing a thiourea bridge and a thiobiurea bridge exhibited excellent insecticidal activities against bean aphid. Specifically, compounds $${\mathbf{VIb}}_{15}$$ VIb 15 , $${\mathbf{VIIb}}_{8}$$ VIIb 8 , and $${\mathbf{VIIb}}_{9}$$ VIIb 9 exhibited 85, 90, and 95 % activities, respectively, at 10 mg/kg. Compounds $${\mathbf{VIb}}_{14}$$ VIb 14 (30 %), $${\mathbf{VIIb}}_{10}$$ VIIb 10 (35 %), $${\mathbf{VIIb}}_{11}$$ VIIb 11 (30 %), and $${\mathbf{VIIb}}_{12}$$ VIIb 12 (40 %) exhibited the approximate aphicidal activity of pymetrozine (30 %) at 5 mg/kg. In addition, some target compounds exhibited insecticidal activities against lepidopteran pests. From a molecular design standpoint, the information obtained in this study could help in the further design of new derivatives with improved insecticidal activities.
