Phenylformamidines are well known as insecticides for their specific activity against the insects. It has now been established that they show insecticidal activity as agonists on the octopamine receptor which is located in the synapse membrane. In this study we tried to test the effect of fluorine substituted aromatic formamidines and 1,3,5-triazapenta-1,4-dienes. Among the compounds, 2h, 2k, 21, 3g, 3h, 3k showed good activity against mite and aphid and 4f and 4g showed high activity against mite.
