Abstract

Quinolactacide isolated from Penicillium citrinum F 1539 was synthesized and evaluated for its insecticidal activities. The key steps of the total synthesis were an acyl migration reaction of the enol ester intermediate and dehydrogenation of tetrahydroquinolactacide with manganese dioxide. The synthesized quinolactacide showed 100% and 42% mortality against the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) at 500 ppm, respectively.
