Fused tricyclic heterocyclic scaffolds: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Pest resistance and off-target toxicity increase crop loss risks, which these innovations mitigate through the synthesis of specific tricyclic molecular architectures. These structural modifications enhance binding affinity and metabolic stability compared to monocyclic or bicyclic alternatives.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Fused tricyclic heterocyclic scaffolds?

Agricultural pest crop damage

(16)evidences

Uncontrolled infestations lead to significant yield loss and plant degradation. Mitigating this damage ensures agricultural productivity and seed viability.

Crop pest infestation

(14)evidences

Existing chemical agents suffer from rising biological resistance and insufficient knockdown efficacy. Overcoming these limitations ensures crop yield stability and reduces application frequency.

Invertebrate pest crop damage

(10)evidences

Existing chemical controls suffer from diminishing efficacy due to evolving biological resistance. Developing novel scaffolds overcomes cross-resistance to maintain crop and animal health.

Agricultural pest crop damage

(7)evidences

Existing chemical agents suffer from insufficient potency or narrow spectrum against agricultural pests. Improving control efficacy prevents significant yield loss and reduces application frequency.

Invertebrate pest crop damage

(5)evidences

Destruction of plant propagation material and agricultural yields by invasive invertebrate species. Mitigating this loss ensures food security and protects commercial seed investments.
