Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In continuation of our program aimed at the discovery and development of natural-product-based insecticidal agents, we have prepared three series of novel 4α-(acyloxy)-2′(2′,6′)-(di)halogenopodophyllotoxin derivatives modified in the C and E rings of podophyllotoxin, which is a naturally occurring aryltetralin lignan isolated from the roots and rhizomes of Podophyllum hexandrum. Their structures were well characterized by H NMR, HRMS, ESI-MS, optical rotation, and mp. The stereochemical configurations of compounds 5s, 6b, 6d, and 7q were unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Their insecticidal activity was evaluated against the pre-third-instar larvae of oriental armyworm, Mythimna separata Walker, in vivo at a concentration of 1 mg/mL. These derivatives likely displayed the antimolting hormone effect. Among all the derivatives, especially compounds 5a, 5n, 7f, 7n, and 7w exhibited the most potent insecticidal activity with final mortality rates of 70% or so. This suggested that a chlorine or bromine atom introduced at the C2′ or C2′ and C6′ positions on the E ring of podophyllotoxin was necessary for obtaining the potent compounds. This will pave the way for further design, structural modification, and development of podophyllotoxin derivatives as insecticidal agents. © 2013 American Chemical Society.
