Abstract
Finding highly active molecular scaffold structures is always the key research content of new pesticide discovery. In the research and development of new pesticides, the discovery of new agricultural molecular scaffold structures and new targets still faces great challenges. In recent years, quinoline derivatives have developed rapidly in the discovery of new agriculturally active molecules, especially in the discovery of fungicides. The unique quinoline scaffold has many advantages in the discovery of new pesticides and can provide innovative and feasible solutions for the discovery of new pesticides. Therefore, we reviewed the use of quinoline derivatives and their analogues as molecular scaffolds in the discovery of new pesticides since 2000. We systematically summarized the agricultural biological activity of quinoline compounds and discussed the structure-activity relationship (SAR), physiological and biochemical properties, and mechanism of action of the active compounds, hoping to provide ideas and inspiration for the discovery of new pesticides.

Design, synthesis and herbicidal activity of novel cyclohexanedione derivations containing pyrazole and pyridine groups as potential HPPD inhibitors. Mol Divers 2024:10.1007/s11030-024-10836-6.

Abstract
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.27; HPPD) is one of the important target enzymes in the development of herbicides. To discover novel HPPD inhibitors with unique molecular, 39 cyclohexanedione derivations containing pyrazole and pyridine groups were designed and synthesized. The preliminary herbicidal activity test results showed that some compounds had obvious inhibitory effects on monocotyledon and dicotyledonous weeds. The herbicidal spectrums of the highly active compounds were further determined, and the compound G31 exhibited the best inhibitory rate over 90% against Plantago depressa Willd and Capsella bursa-pastoris at the dosages of 75.0 and 37.5 g ai/ha, which is comparable to the control herbicide mesotrione. Moreover, compound G31 showed excellent crop safety, with less than or equal to 10% injury rates to corn, sorghum, soybean and cotton at a dosage of 225 g ai/ha. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation analysis revealed that the compound G31 could stably bind to Arabidopsis thaliana HPPD (AtHPPD). This study indicated that the compound G31 could be used as a lead molecular structure for the development of novel HPPD inhibitors, which provided an idea for the design of new herbicides with unique molecular scaffold.

Abstract
The serendipitous discovery of the HPPD inhibitors from allelopathic plants opened the way for searching new and effective herbicidal agents by application of classical hit-to-lead optimization approaches. A plethora of active and selective compounds were discovered that belong to three major classes of cyclohexane-based triketones, pyrazole-based diketones, and diketonitriles. In addition, to enhance inhibitory constant and herbicidal activity, many efforts were also made to gain broader weed control, crop safety, and eventual agricultural applicability. Moreover, HPPD inhibitors emerged as therapeutic agents for inherited and metabolic human diseases as well as vector-selective insecticides in the control of hematophagous arthropods. Given the large set of experimental data available, structure-activity relationship analysis could be used to derive suggestions for next generation optimized compounds.
