Synthesis, Crystal Structure, Spectral Characterization and Antifungal Activity of Novel Phenolic Acid Triazole...

At present, phenolic acid derivatives and triazole derivatives have a good antifungal effect, which has attracted widespread attention. A series of novel phenolic acid triazole derivatives were synthesized, and their structures were characterized by IR, MS, NMR, and X-ray crystal diffraction. Compound methyl 4-(2-bromoethoxy)benzoate, methyl 4-(2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) ethoxy)benzoate, 4-(2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)ethoxy)benzoic acid and 4-(2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) ethoxy)-3-methoxybenzoic acid crystallize in the monoclinic system with space group P2₁/n, the monoclinic system with space group P2₁, the monoclinic system with space group P2₁ and the orthorhombic system with space group Pca2₁, respectively. At a concentration of 100 μg/mL and 200 μg/mL, the antifungal activity against seven plant pathogen fungi was determined. Compound methyl 4-(2-bromoethoxy)benzoate has the best inhibitory effect on Rhizoctonia solani AG1, and the inhibitory rate reached 88.6% at 200 μg/mL. The inhibitory rates of compound methyl 4-(2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) ethoxy)benzoate against Fusarium moniliforme and Sphaeropsis sapinea at a concentration of 200 μg/mL were 76.1% and 75.4%, respectively, which were better than that of carbendazim.
