N-Phthaloylglycine-Derived Strigol Analogues. Influence of the D-Ring on Seed Germination Activity of the Parasitic Weeds Striga hermonthica and Orobanche crenata
摘要:
Several strigol analogues with modifications in the D-ring were synthesized and assayed for germination stimulatory activity of seeds of Striga hermonthica and Orobanche crenata. All of these D-ring analogues are derived from N-phthaloylglycine as the common ABC-fragment. It was concluded that the correct structure of the 2(5H)-furanone D-ring is essential to retain full biological activity.
