Design, Synthesis, and Antifungal Activity of Novel Longifolene-Derived Diacylhydrazine Compounds.


ABSTRACT: Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) present in the inner mitochondrial membrane is an important target enzyme for the design of SDH inhibitor-type fungicides. Using SDH as the target enzyme, 22 novel longifolene-derived diacylhydrazine compounds were designed and synthesized using the renewable natural product longifolene as the starting material. Their structures were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, electrospray mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. In vitro antifungal activity of the target compounds was preliminarily evaluated. As a result, some of them showed better or comparable antifungal activity than that of the commercial fungicide chlorothalonil, in which compound 5a had inhibitory rates of 97.5, 80.5, 72.1, and 67.1% against Physalospora piricola, Colletotrichum orbiculare, Alternaria solani, and Gibberella zeae, respectively, presenting excellent and broad-spectrum activity that deserved further study. Besides, a reasonable and effective three-dimensional structure-activity quantitative relationship model has been established. There was a significant positive correlation between the antifungal activity and the docking-based binding energy analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation algorithm. Also, the simulative binding pattern of the target compounds with SDH was investigated by molecular docking study. Furthermore, the diacylhydrazine and phenol groups of the target compounds were proposed to be the potential pharmacophores by frontier molecular orbital analysis.
