A compound of formula (I): STR1 wherein R1 represents a group of formula (A) where each of W, X, Y and Z and Z represents either a group CR or the nitrogen atom, provided that not more than two of W, X, Y and Z represent the nitrogen atom and where each R present is independently selected from hydrogen and halogen atoms and cyano, amino, hydrazino, acylamino, hydroxy, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, alkenyl, alkenyloxy, alkoxyalkenyl, alkynyl, carboxylic acyl, alkoxycarbonyl, aryl and heterocyclyl groups, said groups comprising up to 6 carbon atoms, and wherein R2 represents hydrogen or cyano or a group selected from alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, aralkyl, heteroarylalkyl, alkenyl, aralkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkanesulfonyl, arenesulfonyl, alkanyloxycarbonyl, aralkyloxycarbonyl, aryloxycarbonyl, heterocyclylalkyl, carbamyl or dithiocarboxyl groups, said groups comprising from 1 to 15 carbon atoms, said groups being optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from, halogen, cyano, carboxyl, carboxylic acyl, carbamyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkoxy, alkylenedioxy, hydroxy, nitro, haloalkyl, alkyl, amino, acylamino, imidate and phosphonato groups; and acid addition salts and quaternary ammonium salts and N-oxides derived therefrom. The compounds are useful as insecticides.

A range of analogues of N-methylputrescine and tropinone were fed to transformed root cultures of Nicotiana rustica and/or a Brugmansia candida x aurea hybrid. These cultures were made by the transformation of the relevant plant species with Agrobacterium rhizogenes. A number of the metabolites, notably those showing a relatively modest alteration in the N-alkyl substituent, were metabolized in vivo to form homologues of the normal alkaloids biosynthesized by these roots. These products were identified by GC/MS and comparison with some synthetic reference materials. Analogues with major alterations in the size of the N-alkyl substituent were not metabolized at all. In the N. rustica cultures, the analogues fed at 1 mM significantly affected the profile of normal alkaloids, with up to a 4-fold diminution in nicotine being found in the presence of N-n-propylputrescine. The ratio between alkaloids of the pyrrolidine series and the piperideine series was also affected. In contrast, the presence of the analogues in the B. candida x aurea hybrid culture at 1 mM did not inhibit or substantially interfere with the accumulation of the normal spectrum of alkaloids. The potential for using these cultures to make complex novel products from simple precursors is discussed.

The invention relates to new salts of endo-8-methyl-8-syn-alkyl-8-azoniabicyclo-[3.2.1]-octane-3-alkylcarboxylates, of formula: STR1 in which R1 is a linear or branched alkyl radical of 2-5 C atoms, a cycloalkyl radical of 3-6 C atoms, or a phenyl-alkyl radical, R3 and R4, which can be the same or different, are alkyl radicals of 1-6 C atoms, X is a halide ion. The new compounds are potent spasmolytics.
