Pine wilt disease (PWD) is caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN; Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) and causes severe environmental damage to global pine forest ecosystems. The current strategies used to control PWN are mainly chemical treatments. However, the continuous use of these reagents could result in the development of pesticide-resistant nematodes. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to find potential alternatives to the currently used PWN control agents abamectin and emamectin. Benzyloxyalkanols (BzOROH; R = C2–C9 ) were synthesized and the nematicidal activity of the synthetic compounds was investigated. Enzymatic inhibitory assays (acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and glutathione S-transferase (GST)) were performed with BzOC8OH and BzOC9OH to understand their mode of action. The benzyloxyalkanols showed higher nematicidal activity than did benzyl alcohol. Among the tested BzOROHs, BzC8OH and BzC9OH showed the strongest nematicidal activity. The LD50 values of BzC8OH and BzC9OH were 246.1 and 158.0 ppm, respectively. No enzyme inhibitory activity was observed for BzC8OH and BzC9OH. The results suggested that benzyloxyalcohols could be an alternative nematicidal agent.

Herein, we report the total synthesis of traumatic lactone and rhizobialide by utilizing allenoic acid to construct the lactone ring. The key starting materials, allenoic acids, could be prepared by the ATA (allenation of terminal alkynes) of a terminal alkyne with an aldehyde that contained a protected hydroxyl group followed by hydrolysis. Importantly, the asymmetric synthesis could be realized just by replacing racemic diphenylprinol with (R)- or (S)-diphenylprinol to deliver the optically active allenoate.

A series of five 12-dodecanolides have been synthesised containing CF2 groups at C5, C6, C7, C8 and in one case, a double substitution at C5 & C8, as a strategy to bias the conformational space accessed by these macrocycles, and to assess if th
