In the present investigation experiments were conducted in the Biopesticide and Toxicological plant product research laboratory, Department of Zoology, D.B.S. College, Kanpur, U.P., India. The pago-repellent effects of some new synthesized amides of salicylic acid viz; C₁₃H₁₁NO_2, C₁₃H₁₀NO₂Cl, C₁₃H₁₀NO₂Br, C₁₄H₁₃NO₂ and C₁₄H₁₃NO₃ were tested on seeds of chickpea, Cicer arietinum L.ver. K 805 against early emerged adults of Callosobruchus chinensis Linn. (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) The different concentration (0.06%, 0.12%, 0.25%, 0.50% and 1.00%) levels of amides of salicylic acid against the attack of chickpea bruchid C. chinensis Linn. on chickpea seeds. Based on EC₅₀ values among all compounds, N- (P-methoxy Phenyl-2 hydroxy salicylimide (0.37) was found most repulsive in controlling the insect infestation in chickpea under storage condition while N-(p- bromophenyle) -2 hydroxy salicylimide (1.34) the least and taken as unit. Remaining amides were recorded based on EC₅₀ as potent repulsive effect in respective descending order as:- N (phenyl) -2 hydroxy Salicylimide (0.58).> N- (p-tolyl) -2-hydroxy Salicylimide (0.71) > N- (p- chlorophenyle) -2 hydroxysalicylimide (2.97), respectively. The results indicate that these compounds have the potential repellent biopotential effect to protect chickpea seeds from pulse beetle damage compared to when the untreated seeds. They should, therefore, be included in pest management strategies for pulse beetle in grains stored on-farm in rural tropical and subtropical oriental regions.
