Abstract
Novel nereistoxin derivatives containing phosphonate were synthesized and characterized via 31P, 1H and 13C NMR and HRMS. The anticholinesterase activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated on human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) using the in vitro Ellman method. Most of the compounds exhibited good inhibition of acetylcholinesterase. All of these compounds were selected to assess their insecticidal activity (in vivo) against Mythimna separata Walker, Myzus persicae Sulzer and Rhopalosiphum padi. Most of the tested compounds displayed potent insecticidal activity against these three species. Compound 7f displayed good activity against all three insect species, showing LC50 values of 136.86 μg/mL for M. separata, 138.37 μg/mL for M. persicae and 131.64 μg/mL for R. padi. Compound 7b had the highest activity against M. persicae and R. padi, with LC50 values of 42.93 μg/mL and 58.19 μg/mL, respectively. Docking studies were performed to speculate the possible binding sites of the compounds and explain the reasons for the activity of the compounds. The results showed that the compounds had lower binding energies with AChE than with the acetylcholine receptor (AchR), suggesting that compounds are more easily bound with AChE.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by microorganisms are considered as promising environmental-safety fumigants for controlling postharvest diseases. Ceratocystis fimbriata, the pathogen of black spot disease, seriously affects the quality and yield of sweet potato in the field and postharvest. This study tested the effects of VOCs produced by Streptomyces setonii WY228 on the control of C. fimbriata in vitro and in vivo. The VOCs exhibited strong antifungal activity and significantly inhibited the growth of C. fimbriata. During the 20-days storage, VOCs fumigation significantly controlled the occurrence of pathogen, increased the content of antioxidant and defense-related enzymes and flavonoids, and boosted the starch content so as to maintain the quality of sweet potato. Headspace analysis showed that volatiles 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine and dimethyl disulfide significantly inhibited the mycelial growth and spore germination of C. fimbriata in a dose dependent manner. Fumigation with 100 μL/L 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine completely controlled the pathogen in vivo after 10-days storage. Transcriptome analysis showed that volatiles mainly downregulated the ribosomal synthesis genes and activated the proteasome system of pathogen in response to VOCs stress, while the genes related to spore development, cell membrane synthesis, mitochondrial function, as well as hydrolase and toxin synthesis were also downregulated, indicating that WY228-produced VOCs act diverse modes of action for pathogen control. Our study demonstrates that fumigation of sweet potato tuberous roots with S. setonii WY228 or use of formulations based on the VOCs is a promising new strategy to control sweet potato and other food and fruit pathogens during storage and shipment. Importance Black spot disease caused by Ceratocystis fimbriata has caused huge economic losses to worldwide sweet potato production. At present, the control of C. fimbriata mainly depends on toxic fungicides, and there is a lack of effective alternative strategies. The research on biological control of sweet potato black spot disease is also very limited. The development of efficient biocontrol technique against pathogens using microbial volatile organic compounds could be an alternative method to control this disease. Our study revealed the significant biological control effect of volatile organic compounds of Streptomyces setonii WY228 on black spot disease of postharvest sweet potato and the complex antifungal mechanism against C. fimbriata. Our data demonstrated that Streptomyces setonii WY228 and its volatile 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine could be candidate strain and compound for the creation of fumigants, and showed the important potential of biotechnology application in the field of food and agriculture.

Abstract
The recent prevalence of coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) has triggered widespread global health concerns.Antiviral drugs based on phosphoramides have significant inhibitory activity against the main protease (Mpro) of the virus and prevent transcription and viral replication. Hence, in order to design and introduce a group of inhibitors affecting the coronavirus, 35 phosphoramide compounds based on phospho-guanine and phospho-pyrazine derivatives were selected for molecular docking study. The results showed that most phosphoguanides containing the amino benzimidazole have a high interaction tendency with COVID-19. Among them, compound 19 was identified as the strongest inhibitor with the -9.570 kcal/mol binding energy whereas, the binding energy of Remdesivir is -6.75 kcal/mol. The quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) results demonstrated that the number of aromatic rings, amide's nitrogens and their ability in π-staking, and hydrogen interactions with Mpro active sites are major factors contributing to the inhibitory activity of these compounds.Also, the NCI-RDG and DFT results were in good accordance with those of QSAR and molecular docking. The findings of this investigation can be underlying the synthesis of effective and efficient drugs against COVID-19.

Abstract
Seventeen novel N-phenylbenzamide derivatives bearing a trifluoromethylpyrimidine moiety were synthesized via four-step reactions. Their antifungal and insecticidal properties were evaluated. Antifungal test results demonstrated that some of the synthesized compounds showed better in vitro bioactivities against Phomopsis sp., Botryosphaeria dothidea (B. dothidea), and Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea) at 50 μg/mL than pyrimethanil. Unfortunately, the synthesized compounds revealed lower insecticidal activities against Spodoptera frugiperda (S. frugiperda) and Mythimna separata (M. separata) at 500 μg/mL than chlorantraniliprole.

Abstract
In an attempt to obtain the modified and novel insecticides with low human toxicity, a series of novel mono-, bis-, and tetraphosphonic acid derivatives were designed and characterized by infrared, 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The inhibitory effects of the synthesized compounds were evaluated using the in vitro Ellman method on human and insect acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Some of these compounds, which had low human and high insect toxicity, were chosen to assess the killing effects (in vivo) on third larval instar of elm leaf beetle (X. luteola). In vivo and in vitro evidence has revealed that bisphosphonic acids, containing hydrophobic systems, have a good selectivity of insect AChE inhibition. In the present study, docking results showed that bisphosphonic acids had lower binding energy and higher inhibition compared with tetraphosphonic acids due to the type of their topology and the ability of their hydrogen to interact with the catalytic triad (the main active site of the enzyme). Additionally, the QSAR results demonstrated that the major effecting factors on the insecticidal activity of the subject compounds are the hydrophobicity, size, shape, and ability to form a hydrogen bond. The present study can be helpful in the development of new insecticides.

Abstract
Synthesizing new chemical compounds and studying their biological applications have been important issues in scientific research. In this investigation, we synthesized and characterized ten new N-acetyl phosphoramidate compounds and explored the crystal structure of three others. Furthermore, not only were some kinetic inhibition parameters measured, like IC50, Ki, kp, KD for 7 compounds on human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), but also their hydrophobic parameter was determined by shake-flask technique. All compounds (number 1-10) were investigated for anti-bacterial activity against three Gram-positive and three Gram-negative bacteria, while chloramphenicol was used as a standard antibiotic. In order to find new insecticide, toxicities of 13 acephate (Ace)-derived compounds (number 20-32) were bioassayed on third larval instar of elm leaf beetle and Xanthogaleruca luteola. Additionally, screening in vivo tests revealed that two compounds had had the greatest insecticidal potential in comparison with others. It means these ones inhibited AChE (with mixed mechanisms) and general esterase more than the rest. According to ChE-QSAR models, the inhibitory potency for enzyme and bacteria is directly influenced by the electronic parameters versus structural descriptors. AChE-QSPR model of fluorescence assay indicated that the inhibitory power of AChE is primarily influenced by a set of electronic factors with the priority of: EHB > PL > δ(31P) versus structural descriptor (SA and Mv). Synthesizing new chemical compounds and studying their biological applications have been important issues in scientific research. Toxicities of 13 acephate (Ace)-derived compounds (number 20-32) were bioassayed on third larval instar of elm leaf beetle and Xanthogaleruca luteola. Insect-QSAR equations of these compounds, based on MLR and PCA, showed that non-descriptor net charge nitrogen atom (which was affected by the polarization of N-H group) had the greatest effect on insecticidal potential.
