Insect growth regulators such as chitin synthesis inhibitors seem promising because of their specific mode of action on insects and their lower toxicity against vertebrates than conventional insecticides. Thus, a novel series of thiobenzamide derivatives have been prepared in a pure state. The structure of these synthesized compounds which related to the most famous insect growth regulator insecticides, were confirmed by elemental and modern spectroscopic analyses (IR, UV, 1HNMR and 13CNMR). Toxicological and biochemical parameters of the synthesized compounds against the cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis under laboratory conditions were also investigated.

Furthermore, the majority of the compounds were, however, screened out due to their poor pharmacokinetics profiles and drug-likeness. Only five compounds emerged as the most promising leads and they include C4 with binding affinity of -8.0 kcal/mol, C8 (-8.6 kcal/mol), C9 (-8.1 kcal/mol), C26 (-8.3 kcal/mol), and C27 (-8.0 kcal/mol).
