Design, Synthesis, and Bioactivity Evaluation of Novel Isoxazole-Amide Derivatives Containing an Acylhydrazone Moiety as New Active Antiviral Agents.

ABSTRACT: As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop "me-better" active molecules, in this study, a series of novel isoxazole-amide derivatives containing an acylhydrazone moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Antiviral bioassays indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited better in vivo antiviral activities against TMV and CMV than those of Ningnanmycin (NNM). Especially, the compound 7t exhibited the best curative, protection, and inactivation activities against TMV and CMV which were superior to those of NNM. Meanwhile, our present work also revealed that compound 7t could enhance the defense-related enzyme activity and increase the chlorophyll content in tobacco leaves to induce resistance and enhance plant tolerance to TMV infection.

Project description:BackgroundPlant fungi (e.g., Pellicularia sasakii, Gibberella zeae, Fusarium oxysporum, and Cytospora mandshurica and Phytophthora infestans) and bacteria (e.g., Ralstonia solanacearum) are extremely difficult to manage in agricultural production. The high incidence of plant mortality and the lack of effective control methods make P. sasakii and R. solanacearum two of the world's most destructive plant pathogens. Pathogenic fungi and bacteria are responsible for billions of dollars in economic losses worldwide each year. Thus, we designed an active amide structure and synthesized a series of novel amide derivatives containing a triazole moiety to discover new bioactive molecules and pesticides that can act against fungi and bacteria.ResultsA series of amide derivatives containing a triazole moiety were synthesized. All the obtained compounds were characterized through proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Preliminary antifungal activity test showed that some of the synthesized compounds exhibited moderate antifungal activity against P. sasakii, G. azeae, F. oxysporum, C. mandshurica, and P. infestans at 50 mg/L. Compound 4u displayed more potent antifungal activity against P. sasakii and G. azeae than hymexazol. Preliminary antibacterial activity results showed that some of the synthesized compounds exhibited high anti-bacterial activity against R. solanacearum at 200 mg/L. Compounds 4m and 4q displayed high antibacterial activity against R. solanacearum, with 71% and 65% inhibitory rates, respectively.ConclusionsA series of novel amide derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazole moiety were synthesized through the reaction of intermediate 3 with different acyl chlorides and anhydrous potassium carbonates in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran at 50°C, using 2,4-dichloroacetophenoneas as a starting material. The title compounds exhibited high inhibitory effects against P. sasakii, R. solanacearum, and G. azeae.
