    Abstract:
    Isoxaflutole (IXF), a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor, causes injury to crops leading to reductions in grain yield. In order to solve the phytotoxicity caused by IXF, the present work evaluated the protective response of the substituted quinoxaline derivatives as potential safeners on Zea mays. The bioassay results showed that all of the test compounds displayed protection against IXF. In particular, safener I-6 exhibited excellent safener activity against IXF injury via enhancing glutathione (GSH) content, glutathione S transferases (GSTs) and cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450) activity. The tested compounds induced the activity of CYP450 and GSTs in Z. mays. The physicochemical properties and ADMET properties of safener I-6, benoxacor and diketonitrile (DKN, IXF metabolite) were compared to predict pharmaceutical behavior. The present work demonstrates that the safener I-6 could be considered as a potential candidate for developing novel safeners in the future.
