THE SYNTHESIS OF ANTIFEEDING AGENTS

本项目的目的是筋骨草和瓦氏草的合成 拒食剂和相关模型系统。 这些拒食剂是由 植物，阻止昆虫以这些植物为食。 的目标 在拒食剂领域的研究是开发化合物， 有效抑制害虫取食粮食作物。 在 以此探讨拒食剂结构与药效之间的关系 活动必须建立。 通过化学合成和生物 希望能够实现测试有用的拒食剂的产生。

The aims of this project are the synthesis of ajuga, and warburgia antifeedants and related model systems. The antifeedants, produced by plants, inhibit insects from feeding on those plants. The objective of research in the area of antifeedants is to develop compounds which will effectively inhibit destructive insects from feeding on food crops. In order to to this the relation between antifeedant structure and effective activity must be established. Through chemical synthesis and biological testing the generation of useful antifeeding agents is hoped to be achieved.
