Derivatives of p-(1,5-dimethylhexyl)benzoic acid are juvenile hormone analogs with selective action on the hemipteran insects of the family Pyrrhocoridae. Their juvenile hormone activity is constant on five species of Dysdercus; it is about ten times lower on Pyrrhocoris, and no activity has been detected on hemipterans of some other families. Absence of profound species-specific variations in the activity suggests that the most active compounds of this type can be used as selective pesticides against all species of Dysdercus.
对-（1,5-二甲基己基）苯甲酸衍生物是保幼激素类似物，对红蝽科半翅目昆虫具有选择性作用。它们对五种棉红蝽的保幼激素活性是恒定的；对红蝽的活性约低十倍，而在其他一些科的半翅目昆虫上未检测到活性。活性缺乏深刻的物种特异性差异表明，这类最具活性的化合物可作为针对所有棉红蝽物种的选择性杀虫剂。
