Leaf dipping method (proposed by Insecticide Resistance Action Committee, IRAC) was adopted: a leaf of Brassica oleracea was clamped by a tweezer and dipped into an insecticide solution having a certain concentration to be tested for 3 to 5 seconds, the excessive solution was threw off, one leaf at each time, three leaves for each sample. The leaves were placed onto a treatment paper according to sequence of sample marking and air-dried naturally, then put into a marked straight tube of 10 cm length, and 30 Plutella xylostella larvae being 2 year-old were placed in, the tube opening was covered by a gauze, and placed into a standard treatment chamber, the result was checked and the mortality was calculated at 72 hour.


Determination of Activity Against Ostrinia furnacalis


Leaf dipping method was adopted, a leaf of Brassica oleracea was clamped by a tweezer, and dipped in insecticide solution having a certain concentration for 3 to 5 seconds, the excessive solution was threw off, one leaf at each time, and three leaves for each sample. The leaves were placed onto a treatment paper according to the sequence of sample marking and air-dried naturally, then put into a marked straight tube of 10 cm length, and 30 Ostrinia furnacalis larvae being 3 year-old were place in, the tube opening was covered by a gauze, and placed in a standard treatment chamber, the result was checked and the mortality was calculated at 72 hours.


Some of the compounds in Example 1 were used to conduct the test, and a control compound was selected to conduct an indoor insecticidal activity data (%, concentration unit: ppm) determination test under the same condition, the results of the test was shown in Table 2.


The structural formula of the control compound KC (a compound described in China Patent Application No. 02815924.1 of DuPont company, Chinese Name: custom character trade name: custom character) was:

The data in Table 2 indicate that the control effect against Helicoverpa armigera by some of the tested compounds were quite remarkable at a concentration as low as 0.125 ppm, and the mortality reached 100%, and the mortality of Helicoverpa armigera at 0.031 ppm was above 65%; the control effect against Ostrinia furnacalis were particularly remarkable, the mortality of Ostrinia furnacalis to I-13 and I-24 was 100% at 0.031 ppm, the inhibitory activity was above 80% even at 0.016 ppm.


The data also indicate that at same concentration, the control effect against Helicoverpa armigera and Ostrinia furnacalis some by the tested compounds was superior to the control compound KC.
