Abstract
Scaffold structures, new mechanisms of action, and targets present enormous challenges in the discovery of novel pesticides. The discovery of new scaffolds is the basis for the continuous development of modern agrochemicals. Identification of a good scaffold such as triazole, carbamate, methoxy acrylate, pyrazolamide, pyrido-pyrimidinone mesoionic, and bisamide often leads to the development of a new series of pesticides. In addition, pesticides with the same target, including the inhibitors of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), oxysterol-binding-protein, and p-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), may have the same or similar scaffold structure. Recent years have witnessed significant progress in the discovery of new pesticides using natural products as scaffolds or bridges. In recent years, there have been increasing reports on the application of natural benzopyran compounds in the discovery of new pesticides, especially osthole and coumarin. A systematic and comprehensive review of benzopyran active compounds in the discovery of new agricultural chemicals is helpful to promote the discussion and development of benzopyran active compounds. Therefore, this work systematically reviewed the research and application of benzopyran derivatives in the discovery of agricultural chemicals, summarized the antiviral, herbicidal, antibacterial, fungicidal, insecticidal, nematicidal and acaricidal activities of benzopyran active compounds, and discussed the structural-activity relationship and mechanism of action. In addition, some active fragments were recommended to further optimize the chemical structure of benzopyran active compounds based on reference information.

Abstract
Substituted on the benzene ring 4-CF3-2H-chromenes have been prepared from substituted 2-(trifluoroacetyl)phenols and vinyltriphenylphosphonium chloride according to the Schweizer protocol in moderate to excellent yields. The influence of the type and the position of aromatic ring substituents on yields of 4-CF3-2H-chromenes have been investigated. It has been shown that 4-CF3-2H-chromenes are convenient precursors to 4-CF3-coumarins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO, EC 1.3.3.4) inhibitors have been widely studied as important agricultural herbicides. Our research focused on the design and synthesis of novel PPO inhibitor herbicides, through linking of a diphenylether pyridine bioisostere structure to substituted coumarins, which aims to enhance environmental and crop safety while retaining high efficacy. RESULTS A total of 21 compounds were synthesized via acylation reactions and all compounds were characterized using infrared, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, and high-resolution mass spectra. The respective configurations of compounds IV-6 and IV-12 were also confirmed using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The bioassay results showed that the title compounds displayed notable herbicidal activity, particularly compound IV-6 which displayed better herbicidal activity in greenhouse and field experiments, crop selectivity and safety for cotton and soybean compared with the commercial herbicide oxyfluorfen. CONCLUSION The work revealed that compound IV-6 deserves further attention as a candidate structure for a novel and safe herbicide. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
To seek novel and safe protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO, EC 1.3.3.4) inhibitors with excellent herbicidal activity. A series of novel phenoxypyridine derivatives containing natural product coumarins with allelopathy were designed and synthesized based on bioisosterism and active subunit combination in this research. Compounds W3.1 and W3.4, with the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 0.02653 mg/L and 0.01937 mg/L, respectively, displayed excellent herbicidal activity in greenhouse. Their herbicidal activity was similar to commercial herbicide oxyfluorfen (IC50 = 0.04943 mg/L). The best field inhibitory effect of compounds W3.1 and W3.4 recorded was at doses of 450 g ai/ha and 300 g ai/ha, respectively. Compound W3.4 had the best herbicidal activity among all the target compounds in this paper. Molecular docking analysis revealed that compounds W3.1 and W3.4 could form a hydrogen bonds with the amino acid AGR-98 and a π-π superposition with the amino acid PHE-398, respectively, which was similar to the oxyfluorfen. The crop selectivity tests results indicated that maize, cotton and soybean showed high tolerance to compound W3.4. Compound W3.4 reduced the Ca and Cb contents of wheat and rice, but had less effect on maize, cotton and soybean. Selectivity of compound W3.4 in maize, cotton and soybean were appeared to be due to reduced absorption of the herbicide compared to wheat and rice. Compound W3.4 deserves further attention as a candidate structure for new herbicides.

Abstract
In the late 1930s and early 1940s, it was discovered that the substitution on aromatic rings of hydrogen atoms with chlorine yielded a novel chemistry of antimicrobials. However, within a few years, many of these compounds and formulations showed adverse effects, including human toxicity, ecotoxicity, and unwanted environmental persistence and bioaccumulation, quickly leading to regulatory bans and phase-outs. Among these, the triclocarban, a polychlorinated aromatic antimicrobial agent, was employed as a major ingredient of toys, clothing, food packaging materials, food industry floors, medical supplies, and especially of personal care products, such as soaps, toothpaste, and shampoo. Triclocarban has been widely used for over 50 years, but only recently some concerns were raised about its endocrine disruptive properties. In September 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration banned its use in over-the-counter hand and body washes because of its toxicity. The withdrawal of triclocarban has prompted the efforts to search for new antimicrobial compounds and several analogues of triclocarban have also been studied. In this review, an examination of different facets of triclocarban and its analogues will be analyzed.

Abstract
Triclocarban (TCC), a broad-spectrum lipophilic antimicrobial agent, is a diarylurea derivative that has been used for more than 60 years as a major ingredient of toys, clothing, food packaging materials, food industry floors, medical supplies and especially of personal care products, such as soaps, toothpaste and shampoo. In September 2016, the U.S. FDA banned nineteen antimicrobial ingredients, including TCC, in over-the-counter consumer antiseptic wash products, due to their toxicity. Withdrawal of TCC has prompted efforts to search for new antimicrobial compounds. In this paper, we present the synthesis and biological evaluation, as antibiotic and non-cytotoxic agents, of a series of diarylureas, analogues of TCC. These compounds are characterized by an intriguingly simple chemistry and can be easily synthesized. Among the synthesized compounds, 1ab and 1bc emerge as the most interesting compounds as they show the same activity of TCC (MIC = 16 µg/mL) against Staphylococcus aureus, and a higher activity than TCC against Enterococcus faecalis (MIC = 32 µg/mL versus MIC = 64 µg/mL). Moreover, 1ab and 1bc show no cytotoxicity towards the human mammary epithelial cells MCF-10A and embryonic kidney epithelial cells Hek-293, in opposition to TCC, which exhibits a marked cytotoxicity on the same cell lines and shows a good antitumor activity on a panel of cell lines tested.
