An investigation on interaction of A on KARI active sites, led to the design and synthesis of 15 novel monoamidines. Some of those showed better biological activity than A on rice KARI (in vitro) and in greenhouse herbicidal tests (in vivo). The structure-biological activity relationship was investigated, which provides valuable information to further study of potential KARI inhibitors.展开更多

Their bioactivities against E. coli AHAS II in vitro were tested and the results indicated that the hydroxylation decreased the inhibition activities of sulfonylureas significantly. Subsequently herbicidal tests against stem-growth of barnyard grass and root-growth of rape confirmed the above conclusion. The preliminary molecular docking studies were also carried out to investigate the binding modes of non-hydroxylated and hydroxylated sulfonylureas with AHAS.展开更多

Their structures were established on the bases of 1^H NMR, IR, ESI-MS and elemental analyses. Among the nine compounds, four show in vitro inhibitory activity on rice KARI, with 2c and 2g[ Ki values of (35.2±4.9) and (49.4 ±6. 3) μmol/L] having similar activity to the precursor of IpOHA(A, Ki =34. 1±6. 7 μmol/L).

Their structures were characterized by melting points, 1H NMR, IR and elemental analysis or HRMS. The bioassay tests indicated that some of these compounds exhibited moderate insecticidal activity against Mythirnna separata Walker and Culex pipiens pallens. Among 17 compounds, 5n and 5p showed 100% larvicidal activity against Mythimna separata Walker at the test concentration of 100 mg/L.展开更多

Their structures were characterized by melting points, ~H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and elemental analysis. The preliminary bioassay showed that most compounds ex- hibited significant in vitro and in vivo fungicidal activity against several test plant fungi. Among 32 new compounds, the trifluoromethyl-containing compounds showed superior activity than the methyl-containing ones. Several com- pounds, such as FS, F9, F10, G5, HT, 118, 13 and 14, were comparable with some commercial fungicides against different fungi during the present study and could be further structurally optimized. Meanwhile, several compounds showed good herbicidal activity against Brassica campestris at 100 ~tg/mL and KARl inhibitory activity at 200 μg/mL. However, compounds exhibited poor insecticidal activity against oriental armyworm at 200 μg/mL in the preliminary studies. The research results will provide useful information for the design and discovery of new agro- chemicals with novel heterocyclic structures.展开更多
