Research progress on piperidine-containing compounds as agrochemicals

Piperidine is a crucial pharmacophore and a special scaffold in the realm of drug discovery. Its flexibility increases the molecule's capability to bind to the receptor. The piperidine-containing compounds are distinguished by their remarkable activity, and are increasingly becoming a vital category of pesticides. In this review, the research progress of piperidines in the discovery of pesticides was updated according to their active characteristics. The structure-activity relationships (SARs), and mechanisms of action of piperidine-containing compounds were also discussed. This article is meant to enable readers to quickly understand piperidines, while providing ideas for creating piperidines with novel structures and unique mechanisms of action.
