Synthesis of Novel Amino Acid–Fipronil Conjugates and Study on Their Phloem Loading Mechanism
TL;DR: This study suggests that associating a nutrient at a different position of an existing pesticide structure could still be effective in obtainingphloem-mobile derivatives, but the distinct physicochemical properties of resultant conjugates may lead to different phloem loading mechanisms.

Abstract: To develop a new pesticide with phloem mobility, a series of new amino acid–fipronil conjugates were designed and synthesized based on derivatization at the 3-position of the pyrazole ring of fipronil. Experiments using a Ricinus communis seedling system showed that all tested conjugates were phloem mobile except for the isoleucine–fipronil conjugate, and that the serine–fipronil conjugate (4g) exhibited the highest concentration in phloem sap (52.00 ± 5.80 μM). According to prediction with log Cf values and uptake experiments with Xenopus oocytes, the phloem loading process of conjugate 4g involved both passive diffusion and an active carrier system (RcANT15). In particular, compared with for a previously reported glycinergic–fipronil conjugate (GlyF), passive diffusion played a more important role for conjugate 4g in the enhancement of phloem mobility. This study suggests that associating a nutrient at a different position of an existing pesticide structure could still be effective in obtaining phloem-mobile derivatives, but the distinct physicochemical properties of resultant conjugates may lead to different phloem loading mechanisms.

Design, synthesis, and insecticidal activities of novel 5-substituted 4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline derivatives.
TL;DR: Bioassay results indicated that most of the test compounds displayed good insecticidal activities against Plutella xylostella, Spodoptera frugiperda, and Solenopsis invicta, and could be considered as qualified candidates for novel insecticide.

Evaluation of titanium and silicon role in mitigation of fungicides toxicity in wheat expressed at the level of biochemical and antioxidant profile.
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the effect of two inorganic biostimulators (titanium, Ti and silicon, Si) and five fungicides (propiconazole, cyproconazelle, spiroxamine, tebuconazole and triadimenol) on biochemical and antioxidant status as well as mycotoxin profile in wheat (Triticum aestivum).

Design, Synthesis, Phloem Mobility, and Bioactivities of a Series of Phenazine-1-Carboxylic Acid-Amino Acid Conjugates
TL;DR: Experiments revealed that introducing an amino acid to PCA could effectively endow PCA with phloem mobility in R. communis L, and analysis results from the prediction of the Kleier model indicated that an active carrier-mediated mechanism may be involved in L-PCA-amino acid conjugates.

The Rule of Five revisited: applying log D in place of log P in drug-likeness filters.
TL;DR: Using a series of commercial compound libraries, this study showed that the adapted Rule of 5 using log D instead of log P provides notable improvement in pass rate for compounds that have the desired lipophilicity at a relevant physiological pH.
