Six novel bis-benzoylphenylurea compounds have been synthesized from available compound chlorothalonil 1(2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) in yield of 30%～50%. The synthetic route has advantages of mild reaction conditions and higher yields. All of the bis-benzoylphenylurea compounds were investigated by IR, 1H NMR, FAB-MS and HRMS. Preliminary insecticidal activities of the title compounds have been tested. The results showed the compounds had only weak activity against Mythimna Separata Walker and Culex Pipiens Pallens.
