✦ Synopsis

Sodium salts of cashew nut shell extracts (CNSL) and anacardic acids isolated from Anacardium occidentale demonstrate a potent antivectorial activity against Aedes aegypti larvae and Biomphalaria glabrata snails. The structure-activity relationship is discussed, particularly the hydrogenation of CNSL and anacardic acids which lower dramatically these properties, showing the importance of the double bonds on the side chains of anacardic acids.

The liquid extracted from cashew-nut shell is composed almost completely of phenolic compounds containing 15-carbon chains with variable unsaturation degrees, meta-substituted in the aromatic ring. The similarity of these compounds with the structures described as efficient peptizing agents for asph
