Definitions
- the present invention relates to an insecticide composition comprising azole compounds as an active ingredient and a method for killing insects using the same.
- Agrichemical consumption is inevitable these days over the world to increase the productivity of agricultural crops by protecting them from damages by blight and harmfi ⁇ l insects.
- the remaining toxicity and environmental pollution resulted from the agrichemicals have caused many problems over the whole world.
- countries over the world agreed to reduce agrichemical consumption, especially highly toxic organic agrichemicals, not to harm human health.
- organophosphorous and organochlorine insecticides the chemical insecticides which are neurotransmission inhibitors being used for about 10 years.
- the inflow routes of the insecticides into living body are mouse, skin and stigma. Some insecticides flowing in the insect tissue are decomposed even before reaching the target area, so that they become non-toxic. But, other insecticides are, on the contrary, activated in vivo, so that they turn into more strong toxic materials, some of which are accumulated in organs and some of which are discharged. Even if the insecticide reaches the target area of insects, not all of them are involved in killing activity and some of the components cause non-specific reactions in the insect tissues. That is, only a part of the insecticide arrives at the target area to cause changes in biochemical functions for killing. Therefore, the target area, metabolic pathway and metabolism of insecticides are important factors considering the mechanism of insecticides.
- the insecticides being used over the world can be classified according to their functions and mechanisms into neurotransmission inhibitors, energy production inhibitors, growth control inhibitors such as juvenile hormone inhibitors and chitin biosynthesis inhibitors and sex pheromone attractants.
- the insecticide developed as the sterol metabolism inhibitor by the present inventors made an addition.
- Most of the insecticides being used over the world are working on enzymes of nervous system or energy production system, the basic systems for life keeping of insects . Insects are killed suddenly by an abnormal stimulus given to nervous system such as excitation or suppression. Based on that, one of many kinds of insecticides has been designed to target the nervous system.
- Neuron is the minimum unit of nervous system, which is connected to dendrite of another neuron in axon terminal stretched from cell body.
- This connecting area is called synapse.
- a stimulus generated in nervous system is transmitted through axon to its end, presynaptic membrane.
- the chemical neurotransmitter released from synaptic vesicles, acetylcholine moves to synapse and binds to the receptor in postsynaptic membrane to stimulate neuron.
- nerve stimulation is transmitted continuously to next neurons.
- Acetylcholine released from synaptic vesicles is responsible for transmitting stimulus from presynaptic membrane to postsynaptic membrane. After this mission, the acetylcholine is not necessary any more. To hydrolyze the acetylcholine, acetylcholine esterase is generated in postsynaptic membrane.
- the acetyl cholinesterase has two kinds of activities; one is degrading ester and anions, and the other is hydrolyzing acetylcholine.
- Acetylcholine finished its mission of transmitting nerve stimulation is accumulated in the receptor in postsynaptic membrane, which causes extreme excitation and convulsions. So, the accumulated acetylcholine is degraded into choline and acetic acid by acetylcholine esterase, which are absorbed in presynaptic membrane. The absorbed choline and acetic acid are changed into acetylcholine again in synaptic vesicles and then stored therein.
- the insecticide acting as an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor is designed to inhibit the activity of acetylcholine esterase that is the enzyme decomposing the neurochemical transmitter, acetylcholine by the major constituents such as organophosphorous and carbamate compounds and thus acetylcholine is accumulated in synapse to cause troubles in neurotransmission system, which causes convulsions and paralysis, leading to the death of insects.
- organophosphorous and carbamate compounds are mainly working on the active site of acetylcholine esterase to inhibit the acetylcholine degradation activity of the enzyme. These compounds infiltrate fast through skin of the insect and are adhered on the surface of central nerve to cause abnormal neuronal actions. The abnormal symptoms are expressed as hypersensitivity, severe convulsion and paralysis to death after being through latent period.
- Insects have to shed off the skin for gradual growth and thus cuticle biosynthesis is very important physiological function in insects.
- Insect skin is composed of cuticle, epidermis and basement membrane.
- Cuticle is composed of exocuticle and endocuticle.
- the endocuticle of the insect is N-acetyl glucosamine (chitin) polymer that contains a huge amount of chitin. Chitin is not found in vertebrates but a major component of insect cuticle. Therefore, if the chitin biosynthesis is inhibited by an inhibitor of shedding, the insect will be killed.
- the mechanism of the inhibitor of shedding for insect larva is as follows; the inhibitor of shedding infiltrates through mouse and stigmas and then inhibits cuticle generation, making normal shedding impossible. At this time, this inhibitor only inhibits chitin formation in endocuticle without affecting the formation of exocuticle composed of hard protein. The precise mechanism of the inhibitor of shedding has not been disclosed, though. It is only known that the inhibitor of shedding inhibits chitin biosynthesis, which is the major component of endocuticle, by suppressing UDP-N-acetyl glucosamine polymerization.

THE COMPOSITION FOR KILLING INSECTS COMPRISING AZOLE COMPOUNDS AS AN EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT
[Technical Field]
The present invention relates to an insecticide composition comprising azole compounds as an active ingredient and a method for killing insects using the same.
[Background Art]
Agrichemical consumption is inevitable these days over the world to increase the productivity of agricultural crops by protecting them from damages by blight and harmfiαl insects. However, the remaining toxicity and environmental pollution resulted from the agrichemicals have caused many problems over the whole world. Thus, countries over the world agreed to reduce agrichemical consumption, especially highly toxic organic agrichemicals, not to harm human health. Specifically, they agreed to reduce gradually the consumption of the synthetic agrichemicals particularly harmful for human and livestock. In Korea, there was an agreement in 2004 to reduce 50% of the production of organophosphorous and organochlorine insecticides, the chemical insecticides which are neurotransmission
inhibitors being used for about 10 years. And further the additional 50% reduction of the consumption of the organophosphorous and organochlorine insecticides until 2010 was agreed. In spite of all the efforts made by numbers of research teams from all over the world including those of multinational cooperations, a novel insecticide with new mechanism has not been developed, yet. If a safe insecticide is not developed, the above agreements will be in danger of breaching because of lack of agrichemicals, suggesting that the banned agrichemicals might have to be allowed to be consumed.
The inflow routes of the insecticides into living body are mouse, skin and stigma. Some insecticides flowing in the insect tissue are decomposed even before reaching the target area, so that they become non-toxic. But, other insecticides are, on the contrary, activated in vivo, so that they turn into more strong toxic materials, some of which are accumulated in organs and some of which are discharged. Even if the insecticide reaches the target area of insects, not all of them are involved in killing activity and some of the components cause non-specific reactions in the insect tissues. That is, only a part of the insecticide arrives at the target area to cause changes in biochemical functions for killing. Therefore, the
target area, metabolic pathway and metabolism of insecticides are important factors considering the mechanism of insecticides.
The insecticides being used over the world can be classified according to their functions and mechanisms into neurotransmission inhibitors, energy production inhibitors, growth control inhibitors such as juvenile hormone inhibitors and chitin biosynthesis inhibitors and sex pheromone attractants. The insecticide developed as the sterol metabolism inhibitor by the present inventors made an addition. Most of the insecticides being used over the world are working on enzymes of nervous system or energy production system, the basic systems for life keeping of insects . Insects are killed suddenly by an abnormal stimulus given to nervous system such as excitation or suppression. Based on that, one of many kinds of insecticides has been designed to target the nervous system. Neuron is the minimum unit of nervous system, which is connected to dendrite of another neuron in axon terminal stretched from cell body. This connecting area is called synapse. A stimulus generated in nervous system is transmitted through axon to its end, presynaptic membrane. Right after, the chemical neurotransmitter released from synaptic vesicles, acetylcholine, moves to synapse and binds to the receptor
in postsynaptic membrane to stimulate neuron. By this process, nerve stimulation is transmitted continuously to next neurons. Acetylcholine released from synaptic vesicles is responsible for transmitting stimulus from presynaptic membrane to postsynaptic membrane. After this mission, the acetylcholine is not necessary any more. To hydrolyze the acetylcholine, acetylcholine esterase is generated in postsynaptic membrane. The acetyl cholinesterase has two kinds of activities; one is degrading ester and anions, and the other is hydrolyzing acetylcholine. Acetylcholine finished its mission of transmitting nerve stimulation is accumulated in the receptor in postsynaptic membrane, which causes extreme excitation and convulsions. So, the accumulated acetylcholine is degraded into choline and acetic acid by acetylcholine esterase, which are absorbed in presynaptic membrane. The absorbed choline and acetic acid are changed into acetylcholine again in synaptic vesicles and then stored therein. Based on that, the insecticide acting as an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor is designed to inhibit the activity of acetylcholine esterase that is the enzyme decomposing the neurochemical transmitter, acetylcholine by the major constituents such as organophosphorous and carbamate compounds and thus acetylcholine is accumulated in synapse to cause troubles in neurotransmission system,
which causes convulsions and paralysis, leading to the death of insects.
It is known that the organophosphorous and carbamate compounds are mainly working on the active site of acetylcholine esterase to inhibit the acetylcholine degradation activity of the enzyme. These compounds infiltrate fast through skin of the insect and are adhered on the surface of central nerve to cause abnormal neuronal actions. The abnormal symptoms are expressed as hypersensitivity, severe convulsion and paralysis to death after being through latent period.
There is another insecticide inhibiting composition of insect cuticle and chitin biosynthesis. Insects have to shed off the skin for gradual growth and thus cuticle biosynthesis is very important physiological function in insects. Insect skin is composed of cuticle, epidermis and basement membrane. Cuticle is composed of exocuticle and endocuticle. The endocuticle of the insect is N-acetyl glucosamine (chitin) polymer that contains a huge amount of chitin. Chitin is not found in vertebrates but a major component of insect cuticle. Therefore, if the chitin biosynthesis is inhibited by an inhibitor of shedding, the insect will be killed.
The mechanism of the inhibitor of shedding for insect larva is as follows; the inhibitor of shedding infiltrates
through mouse and stigmas and then inhibits cuticle generation, making normal shedding impossible. At this time, this inhibitor only inhibits chitin formation in endocuticle without affecting the formation of exocuticle composed of hard protein. The precise mechanism of the inhibitor of shedding has not been disclosed, though. It is only known that the inhibitor of shedding inhibits chitin biosynthesis, which is the major component of endocuticle, by suppressing UDP-N-acetyl glucosamine polymerization.
Numbers of researchers have been tried to develop insecticides targeting the unique characteristics and functions of insects by inhibiting the generation of juvenile hormone and a substance causing mating disruption. Another attempt to kill insects i s to tempt male insects by using pheromone secreted by female insects. However, outdoor field test has demonstrated that this temptation is not so effective as to be commercialized. Many researchers have made molecular biological approach to understand insects and their physiological mechanisms and based on the studies on metabolic enzymes or receptors, they are trying to develop a novel insecticide. Larvae of insects take nutrients from outside and use them for growth. So, it can be another way to kill insects by
inhibiting intake of food of larvae, suggesting that insecticide inhibiting diet of larvae is under development.
The present inventors completed this invention by confirming that the synthetic azole compound could spoil appetite in Plutella xylostella larvae and Myzus persicae imagoes and exhibited killing activity consistently and time-dependentIy.

The azole compounds 1 and 2 having insecticidal activity were weighed precisely and 10 mg of each compound was dissolved in proper amount of acetone (10 mg/10 ml) . The acetone containing the compound was mixed with 100 ppm triton X-100 solution 9 times the volume of the acetone, followed by serial dilution (1:10, 1:100, and 1:1000) to prepare test solutions. As for the feeds for Plutella xylostella L. larvae, cabbage leaves in even growth condition were cut into disks (3.0 cm in diameter), which were fully sunk in the prepared test solution for 30 seconds. The cabbage leaf disks were taken out and dried in a hood for 60 minutes. The test solution treated cabbage leaf disks were distributed on a petridish (55χ20 mm) covered with the wet filter paper. Second larvae of Plutella xylostella L. were moved by a soft brush not to be damaged, leading to the inoculation three times, 10 larvae at a time. The larvae treated with the sample were raised in a constant temperature room (25 ± 1°C, relative humidity: 40-45%, 16L:8D) and death rate was investigated
on hour 24 and 48. As for the non-treated group, the leaves were treated with 10% acetone solution mixed with 100 ppm triton X-IOO solution 9 times the volume of the acetone solution by the same manner as described in the above method for treating the sample. The activity test was repeated three times. And the results are shown in Table 1.
As shown in Table 1, different concentrations of the azole compounds 1 and 2 (1, 10, and 100 ppm) were treated to Plutella xylostella L. larvae and killing activity was measured at 1 day interval. The experimental group exhibited consistent and time dependent insecticidal activity, compared with the control.
