Abstract

In order to find the effective bio-pesticide to against locusts, we tested the bioactivity of the different extracts from roots of Stellera chamaejasme L., respectively. The results of bioassay indicated that petroleum ether extracts had obviously insecticidal activity towards locusts. With silica column chromatography method, we isolated one compound from petroleum ether extracts. Spectra data of (NMR)-N-1 and (NMR)-N-13 showed the insecticidal compound in the roots of Stellera chamaejasme. L against Locusta migratoria manilensis was dibutyl phthalate. The LC50 of dibutyl phthalate was found to be 292.68 ppm.
