INDIRECT MODELING OF NEW REPELLENT MOLECULES ACTIVE AGAINST INSECTS, ACARIDS, AND OTHER ARTHROPODS

摘要

This invention relates to novel coumarin derivatives, formulations comprising same, and to methods of making and using these compounds and formulations, which are useful as repellents against insects and/or pests. The compounds also prevent illness and disease caused by insect/pest-borne vectors, and provide safer, more effective alternatives to existing repellents. This invention also relates to novel methods for modeling and/or predicting the repeilency of unknown compounds.
