Abstract: We give an upper bound for the least energy of a sign-changing solution to the the nonlinear scalar field equation ${\displaystyle }$-Delta u = f(u), qquad uin D^{1,2}(mathbb{R}^{N}),${\displaystyle }$ where $Ngeq5$ and the nonlinearity $f$ is subcritical at infinity and supercritical near the origin. More precisely, we establish the existence of a nonradial sign-changing solution whose energy is smaller that $12c_0$ if $N=5,6$ and smaller than $10c_0$ if $Ngeq7$, where $c_0$ is the ground state energy.
