2-Aminothiazoline derivatives were synthesized by both hydrochloric acid-catalyzed cyclization of thiourea and cyclization of β-aminoalkyl hydrogen sulfate with isothiocyanate in the presence of sodium hydroxide.Substituted 2-mercaptothiazoline derivatives were prepared by alkylation or acylation of the sodium salt of 2-mercaptothiazoline, which was obtained from β-aminoalkyl hydrogen sulfate with carbon disulfide. 2-(4-Chloro-o-toluidino)-2-thiazoline (III-16) was 33percent as effective as octopamine at 100 μM in stimulating adenylate cyclase of Periplaneta americana ventral-nerve-cord homogenates.Its activity was nonadditive to the activity of octopamine.Stimulation of nerve-cord adenylate cyclase activity by III-16 was inhibited by several antagonists, including mianserin, cyproheptadine, chlorpromazine and gramine.The rank-order ability of these antagonists to block the activation by III-16 was identical to the rank-order ability of the same antagonists to block enzyme activation of octopamine.The β-adrenergic antagonist propanolol was less potent.These data suggest that III-16 is a potent and selctive agonist of octopamine-activated adenylate cyclase.Aminothiazolines which activated adenylate cyclase by 10-87percent relative to octopamine also had acaricidal activity at 300 ppm, indicating a correlation between the in vitro octopaminergic-agonist activity and in vivo acaricidal activity of aminothiazolines.

Fifty-five new five-membered cyclic organophosphorus compounds including oazaphospholidines, thiazaphospholidines, and oxathiaphospholanes were synthesized, which have substituents at 4- or/and 5-positions besides at the 2-position.The thiazaphospholidines showed the highest insecticidal activity followed by oxathiaphospholanes and oxazaphospholidines.The position preference of substituents in insecticidal activity was most obvious in the oxazaphospholidines.It was preferable for insecticidal activity to have the substituent near the more basic atom: the 4-position for thiazaphospholidine and oxazaphospholidine, the 5-position for oxathiaphospholane, with the exception of 4- or 5-phenyl oxazaphospholidine.
