    Abstract:
    Ethyl 5-cyano-1,6-dihydro-2-methyl-4-(2'-thienyl)-6-thioxonicotinate (A) was synthesized and reacted with ethyl chloroacetate in the presence of sodium acetate or sodium carbonate to give ethyl 5-cyano-6-((2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)thio)-2-methyl-4-(2'-thienyl)nicotinate (1a) or its isomeric thieno[2,3-b]pyridine 2a. 3-Aminothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide 2b was also synthesized by the reaction of A with 2-chloroacetamide. The reaction of 1a with hydrazine hydrate in boiling ethanol gave acethydrazide 3. Heating ester 1a with hydrazine hydrate under neat conditions afforded 3-amino-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine 10. Compounds 2b, 3, and 10 were used as precursors for synthesizing other new thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines containing mainly the ethyl nicotinate scaffold. Structures of all new compounds were confirmed by elemental and spectral analyses. Most of the obtained compounds were evaluated for their insecticidal activity toward the nymphs and adults of Aphis gossypii (Glover,1887). Some compounds such as 4, 9b, and 9c showed promising results. The effect of some sublethal concentrations, less than LC50, of compounds 4, 9b, and 9c on the examined Aphis was subjected to a further study. The results demonstrated that exposure of A. gossypii nymphs to sublethal concentrations of compounds 4, 9b, and 9c had noticeable effects on their biological parameters, i.e., nymphal instar duration, generation time, and adult longevity. The highest concentration C1 of all three compounds increased the nymphal instar duration and generation time and decreased adult longevity and vice versa.
