Summary:Herein, we describe novel pentafluorosulfanyl (SF ) group-containing meta-diamide insecticides. For the facile preparation of the SF -based compounds - , practical synthetic methods were applied. Among newly synthesized compounds, 3-benzamido- -(2,6-dimethyl-4-(pentafluoro-λ -sulfanyl)phenyl)-2-fluorobenzamide showed (i) a high insecticidal activity, (ii) an excellent selectivity to insects, and (iii) good levels of water solubility and log P values. In this study, we demonstrated that the pentafluorosulfanyl moiety could serve as an attractive functionality for the discovery of a new scope of crop-protecting agents.
