The diamide insecticides show exceptional activity against Lepidoptera insects via activation of ryanodine receptors (RyRs). In the present study, a series of anthranilic diamides containing a fluoroaniline moiety were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for insecticidal potency. Most titled compounds exerted moderate to remarkably high activity against Mythimna separata, Plutella xylostella, and Spodoptera frugiperda. The insecticidal activity of compound II l and II ac against M. separata was 26.7 and 26.7% at 0.1 mg L–¹, respectively, equivalent to that of chlorantraniliprole (0.1 mg L–¹, 30.0%). Compounds II l, II y, and II z exhibited 8.0-, 1.8-, and 4.7-fold higher potency than chlorantraniliprole against P. xylostella, respectively, as compared with their LC₅₀s. Compounds II k and II aa showed good insecticidal activity against S. frugiperda with LC₅₀ of 0.56 and 0.46 mg L–¹, respectively, comparable to that of the commercial insecticide chlorantraniliprole with LC₅₀ of 0.31 mg L–¹. Calcium imaging experiments indicated RyRs as the action target. Molecular docking suggested a higher binding energy of 8.647 kcal/mol between II l and the M. separata RyR than the 7.820 kcal/mol between chlorantraniliprole and the M. separata RyR. Meanwhile, the docking results of II l with mutated P. xylostella RyR at site G4946E showed that II l could have a good inhibition effect on the resistant P. xylostella. The density functional theory calculations suggested the importance of the fluoroaniline moiety in potency. Those novel anthranilic diamides containing a fluorinated aniline moiety are good insecticidal candidates.
