Abstract

Abstract Optimisation of activity in 3-[(alkoxyimino) methylbenzyl] esters has been investigated by introducing an α-cyano group and a fluorine atom in position 4 of the benzylic moiety in conjunction with varying the length and nature of the side chain. Of the five side-chain variations investigated, the 3-methoxyiminomethyl was more effective than others. Introduction of fluorine in position 4 of the benzylic moiety generally increased ...
