[Antifungal activity of 5-benzilidene pyrrolone and furanone derivatives]

The antifungal activity against Neurospora crassa of some 5-benzilidene pyrrolone and furanone derivatives was realised. Relations between the structure and this biological activity are established with Fujita-Ban and Hansch methods. The preponderant part of lipophilicity, resonance effect and E or Z configurations have been showed.
