Background:

Precocene II is a chromene that has been found inA. houstonianumand has anti-juvenile hormone activity.^1,2,3It inhibits juvenile hormone biosynthesis in isolated spontaneously active cockroach (P. americana) corpora allata when used at concentrations of 1 mM or higher.¹Precocene II (8 μg/cm²coating in Petri dish) inhibits development of the corpus allatum in newly eclosed female milkweed bugs and causes allatal regression when applied 120 hours post-eclosion in normally developing females.²It induces precocious metamorphosis in milkweed bug second-stage nymphs when applied as a coating to Petri dishes at concentrations of 0.4 and 0.7 μg/cm².³Precocene II inhibits ovarian development in various insects, including milkweed bugs, cotton stainers, apple maggots, and Mexican bean beetles. Precocene II also inhibits production of the trichothecene mycotoxin 3-acetyldeoxy nivalenol inF. graminearum(IC₅₀= 1.2 μM) without inhibiting fungal growth.⁴
