플루피라디푸론

개요Flupyradifurone(FPF) is a novel butenolide insecticide developed for foliar, soil and seed treatment applications (Nauen et al., 2015). FPF was commercially introduced to the market in 2014 as an integrated pest management (IPM)-friendly tool (Bordini et al., 2021), and is registered for use in a wide variety of fruit and vegetable crops and defined broad acre crops. It targets some of the world′s most destructive sucking pests including aphids, psyllids, scales, leafhoppers, mealy bugs, and is particularly important for the control of whiteflies such as Bemisia tabaci, a vector of serious phytopathogenic viruses such as tomato yellow leaf curl virus and cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (Castle et al., 2017; Roditakis et al., 2017).

용도Flupyradifurone is the first member of butenolide class of insecticides. Its mode of action is similar to neonicotinoid insecticides that act on the central nervous system of target insect pests as an agonist of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). However, its chemical structure differs from the nitroguanidine neonicotinoids and thus it is a separate sub-class of IRAC Group 4. Flupyradifurone is a systemic insecticide and targets piercing, sucking insects such as aphids and whiteflies. The EPA has registered flupyradifurone on berries (except cranberry), cereal grains (except rice), alfalfa, clover, and vegetables (except sugar beet), fruits, and ornamental plants. On soybean flupyradifuron is registered for foliar and seed treatment use only. Flupyradifurone is formulated as soluble liquid (SL) and flowable concentrate (FS). Application to soybean seeds is approved via commercial seed treatment application only.

Two different pathways for the synthesis of flupyradifuroneStarting from tetronic acid, one approach consists in two consecutive reactions. Where the tetronic acid reacts firstly with a difluoroethane-1-amine and secondly with 2-Chloro-5- (chloromethyl)pyridine. And the other approach, where the tetronic acid reacts with difluoroethane-1-amine derivative in the presence of 4-toluenesulfonic acid in a “one pot” approach to yield flupyradifurone.

정의ChEBI: Flupyradifurone is a tertiary amino compound that is ammonia in which the nitrogens have been replaced by (6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl, 2,2-difluoroethyl, and 5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-yl groups, respectively. A nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) agonist, it is used as an insecticide to control sucking pests in a variety of crops. It has a role as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist and an insecticide. It is a butenolide, a monochloropyridine, an organofluorine insecticide, an enamine and a tertiary amino compound.
