Abstract:
To discover novel fungicide molecules with unique structures and excellent bioactivities, chesulfamide was employed as the lead compound, and a thiadiazine ring was introduced to design and synthesize a series of novel thiadiazine sulfonamide derivatives. The fungicidal activities of the target compounds were subsequently evaluated. The results demonstrated that at a concentration of 50 μg/mL, the target compounds exerted a certain inhibitory effect on five tested plant pathogens. Bioassay results indicated that seven compounds achieved inhibition rates exceeding 90% against
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Specifically, compound
C18 showed a 100.00% inhibition rate with an EC
50 value of 0.06 μg/mL, which is superior to chesulfamide (1.12 μg/mL) and comparable to carbendazim and procymidone (0.05 μg/mL). Three compounds displayed inhibition rates over 70% against
Botrytis cinerea, among which compound
C12 reached an inhibition rate of 79.60% with an EC
50 value of 8.16 μg/mL.
In vivo control efficacy assay demonstrated that at 200 μg/mL, compounds
C7,
C18 and
C23 exhibited control efficacies over 80% against
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and compounds
C7,
C9,
C13 and
C15 showed control efficacies no less than 80% against
Botrytis cinerea. This study provides a reference for the development of thiadiazine sulfonamide fungicides.
