Discovery of novel avermectins with unprecedented insecticidal activity

A new class of insecticidal and antiparasitic agents, 4"-amino-4"-deoxy avermectins, has been developed by chemical modification of avermectin B sub(1). The most effective of these compounds are 1500-fold more potent than avermectin B sub(1) (abamectin) against the beet armyworm Spodoptera...

Zusammenfassung:A new class of insecticidal and antiparasitic agents, 4"-amino-4"-deoxy avermectins, has been developed by chemical modification of avermectin B sub(1). The most effective of these compounds are 1500-fold more potent than avermectin B sub(1) (abamectin) against the beet armyworm Spodoptera exigua) and show similar potency against other lepidopteran larvae.
