Synthesis and fungicidal activity of mono-substituted benzoic esters

Seventeen title compounds were synthesized from mono-substituted benzoic acid,of which eight derivatives were first studied.The structures of the compounds were characterized by 1H NMR and ESI-MS.The bioassays showed that the EC50 value of compounds 3j against Corynespora cassiicola was 22.80 mg/L and 3l against Fusarium moniliforme was 12.34 mg/L.
