Action of some new insect growth regulators on mosquito vectors. Part II: Geraniol based diethers.

Biological activity of saturated diethers viz. 1-benzyloxy/phenoxy-8-alkoxy and 1-alkoxy-8-benzyloxy-3,7-dimethyl-1, 8-octanes (IIa-IIq) prepared from Geraniol, were studied on three mosquito species and the bug Dysdercus koenigii. These diethers exhibited oviposition deterrent and developmental inhibition activities of greater magnitudes than the compounds based on citronellol reported in Part I of this paper. Some of these new compounds inhibit development of mosquitoes at 0.05 ppm and deter oviposition at 0.05 per cent doses. Tests were extended to field simulated conditions in selected cases.[1]
