Chlorantraniliprole

Description

Chlorantraniliprole is an anthranilic diamide insecticide and agonist of ryanodine receptors located on the sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle and endoplasmic reticulum in non-muscle cells. It binds to a different site than ryanodine on the receptor and stimulates the release of calcium from intracellular stores with EC₅₀ values ranging from 40 to 50 nM for P. americana neurons and H. virescens or D. melanogaster recombinant ryanodine receptors. It is highly selective for insect over mammalian ryanodine receptors (EC₅₀s = 14,000 nM, >100 μM, and >100 μM for C2C12 mouse, PC12 rat, and IMR32 human cells, respectively). Chlorantraniliprole is active against insects of the order Lepidoptera, including larvae of the fall armyworm (S. frugiperda), diamondback moth (P. xylostella), and tobacco budworm (H. virescens) with EC₅₀ values of 0.02, 0.01, and 0.05 ppm, respectively, and of the orders Coleoptera, Diptera, and Isoptera. Formulations containing chlorantraniliprole have been used in agriculture to control moths, beetles, and caterpillars among other insects.

Definition

ChEBI: Chlorantraniliprole is a carboxamide resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxylic acid group of 3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid with the primary amino group of 2-amino-5-chloro-N,3-dimethylbenzamide. The first of the anthranilic diamide insecticides, it is a ryanodine receptor activator and is used to protect a wide variety of crops, including corn, cotton, grapes, rice and potatoes. It has a role as a ryanodine receptor agonist. It is an organobromine compound, a member of pyridines, a member of pyrazoles, a pyrazole insecticide, a member of monochlorobenzenes and a secondary carboxamide.

Preparation

Chlorantraniliprole was synthesized by reaction of 3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-pyridinyl)-1H-pyrazole-5carboxylic acid with 2-amino-5-chloro-3-methylbenzoic acid.3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-pyridinyl)-1H-pyrazole5-carboxylic acid was prepared by reaction of maleic anhydride with 2,3-dichloropyridine as starting materials in eight steps.2-Amino-5-chloro-3-methylbenzoic acid was prepared by reaction of 2-amino-3-methylbenzoic acid in one step.The structure of target compound was conf irmed by 1H NMR.Total yield was 36.3%(calculated with 2,3-dichloropyridine),and purity determined by HPLC was over 95%.
