Synthesis of spiroketal enol ethers related to tonghaosu and their insecticidal activities

Pest Manag Sci. 2005 May;61(5):477-82. doi: 10.1002/ps.991.

Abstract

This paper describes the syntheses and biological activities of a number of spiroketal enol ethers which are analogues of the plant extract tonghaosu. The insecticidal potential of this spiroketal system is assessed.
