Organophosphorus Chemistry, Part 37: Synthesis and Insecticidal Activities of Some Phosphonate Adducts Derived from 6-(Aryliminomethyl)-furobenzopyran-5-ones

Abstract

Dialkyl phosphites attack 6-(Aryliminomethyl)furobenzopyran-5-ones at the imine-carbon atom to give new phosphonate 1:1 adducts. The obtained compounds regenerate the starting materials upon thermolysis under reduced pressure. Structures of the new products were attested by compatible analytical and spectroscopic measurements. Insecticidal activity tests assured that some new compounds show marked potency against adults of Aphis gossypii (Glover), which infests cotton crops.
