    [EN] Two new natural products, N-(2-methyl-3-oxodec-8-enoyl)-2-pyrroline (2) and 2-(hept-5-enyl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-6,7,8,8a-tetrahydro-4H-pyrrolo[2,1-b]-1,3-oxazine (3), have been isolated from Penicillium brevicompactum Dierckx. Compound 2 has shown an important in vivo anti-juvenile-hormone (anti-JH) activity while compound 3 has exhibited insecticidal activity against Oncopeltus fasciatus Dallas. Both products have been synthesized starting from 1,4-hexadiene, by means of a sequence of reactions which includes the preparation of 6-octenoic acid and its transformation into the corresponding acid chloride, in order to acylate Meldrum's acid. Subsequent aminolysis with pyrrolidine, followed by methylation at the activated position of the ß-oxo amide with iodomethane, introduction of a methoxy group at the pyrrolidine ring by anodic oxidation and final elimination of methanol on SiO2 led to 2 and 3. The fact that both metabolites can be prepared by the same sequence indicates that they must be biogenetically related. Based on structural similarities, compounds 2 and 3 are also closely related to the recently discovered brevioxime

    Susceptibility of Ceratitis capitata Wiedeman (Diptera:Tephritidae) to entomopathogenic fungi and their extracts

    [EN] The effectiveness of seven strains of entomopathogenic fungi against Ceratitis capitata adults was evaluated in the laboratory. Adults were susceptible to five of seven aqueous suspensions of conidia. Metarhizium anisopliae and strain CG-260 of Paecilomyces fumosoroseus were the most pathogenic fungi, with 10- day LD50 values of 5.1 and 6.1 3 103 conidia/fly, respectively, when applied topically. Sublethal effects on fecundity and fertility of the fungal-exposed females were also studied. The most effective fungus in reducing fecundity was P. fumosoroseus CECT 2705, with reductions on the order of 65% at 1 3 106 conidia/fly. M. anisopliae and Aspergillus ochraceus also showed significant reductions of fecundity (40–50% for most of the assayed concentrations). Fertility was moderately affected by the fungi. M. anisopliae at 1 3 106 conidia/fly was the most effective fungus, showing egg eclosion reduction of over 50% compared with the control. In addition, culture broth dichloromethane extracts from the entomopathogenic fungi were tested for insecticide activity against C. capitata, including effects on fecundity and fertility. The extract from M. anisopliae was the most toxic, resulting in about 90% mortality at a concentration of 25 mg/g of diet; under these conditions, fecundity and fertility of treated females were reduced by 94 and 53%, respectively, compared with untreated controls. © 2000 Academic Press
