Summary: To control the pest Sphodroxia maroccana Ley, researchers have developed a new class of insecticides. Through green synthesis, a series of novel isoxazoline-sulfonamide derivatives were obtained and their insecticidal activities against S. maroccana larvae were evaluated. Some of the derivatives showed higher insecticidal activity, laying the foundation for further discovery and development of isoxazoline-sulfonamide derivatives as novel crop protection larvicides of cork oak.
