A number of analogs of lunularic acid varying in the number of methylene carbons between the two benzene rings and in the substituents on their rings were prepared, and their effects on the growth of liverwort gemmaling, watercress, and timothy grass were investigated. Almost all the analogs tested were more inhibitory than lunularic acid, and a correlation between the structure and activity was observed. The differences in the growth-inhibition activity of analogs between higher and lower plants are also discussed.
研究人员制备了一些月桂酸类似物,这些类似物的两个苯环之间的亚甲基碳数和环上的取代基各不相同,研究了它们对肝草、水芹和梯牧草生长的影响。几乎所有测试的类似物都比月桂酸具有更强的抑制作用,而且结构与活性之间存在相关性。此外,还讨论了类似物在高等植物和低等植物之间的生长抑制活性差异。
