A series of substituted phenyl ethers derivatives as juvenile hormone (JH) mimics (V1-V8) have been synthesized. Substituted phenoxyacetic acid and amino acid ethyl ester hydrochloride were prepared using NaOH, SOCl2. DCC method has been used for amide linkage. The structure of prepared compounds has been confirmed by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR), Electrospray ionization-Mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), Proton and Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR) spectroscopic techniques. Biological efficacy of synthesized analogs has been carried out under laboratory conditions. Galleria mellonella (honey bee pest) has been chosen as testing insect. Juvenile hormone (JH) activity of synthesized compounds has been tested at different concentrations and compared with the standard juvenile hormone analogs (JHAs) pyriproxyfen (M1) and fenoxycarb (M2) against the fifth larval instar of G. mellonella. Compound ethyl 2-[2-(4-methylphenoxy)aminoacetyl]-3-phenyl-propanoate (V6) exhibited better activity among all the synthesized compounds (V1-V8) with LC50 and LC90 values of 0.11 mg/mL and 0.56 mg/mL respectively. Compounds showed insect growth regulating (IGR) activity at lower concentrations. In silico screening of all synthesized compounds with the W-cavity of juvenile hormone-binding protein (JHBP) of insect G. mellonella has been carried out. Chemical reactivity of synthesized series has been studied using DFT/B3LYP/6-311 + G(d,2p) method. Non-toxic behavior of molecules has also been observed from ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity) study using discovery studio client 3.0. Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines with heterogeneous catalysts under liquid-phase continuous-flow conditions is described. Newly developed polysilane/SiO2-supported Pd was found to be an effective catalyst and various nitriles were converted into primary amine salts in almost quantitative yields under mild reaction conditions. Interestingly, a complex mixture was obtained under batch conditions. Lifetime experiments showed that this catalyst remained active for more than 300 h (TON≥10 000) without loss of selectivity and no metal leaching from the catalyst occurred. By using this continuous-flow hydrogenation, synthesis of venlafaxine, an antidepressant drug, has been accomplished.

Twelve novel neonicotinoid analogues 1-(2-furfuryl)-5-substituted-1,3,5- hexahydrotriazine-2-N-nitroimines 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3h, 3i, 3j, 3k, 3l were synthesized. Their structures were characterized by 1H NMR, IR, and elemental analysis. The preliminary bioassay tests showed that all the title compounds gave ≥90% mortality against Nilaparvata lugen 500 mg/L.
