Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a new jasmonate compound, a method for preparing the compound and its use in agriculture. BACKGROUND

[0002] Jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are widely present in plants as a wound-related plant hormone and signal molecule, and exogenous application can stimulate the expression of defense plant genes, induce plant chemical defense, and produce similar effects to mechanical damage and insect feeding. Numerous studies have shown that treatment of plants with jasmonic acid compounds can systematically induce protease inhibitors (PI) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO), thereby affecting the absorption of nutrients by phytophagous animals, and also increasing the activity levels of defense proteins such as peroxidase, chitosanase and lipoxygenase, leading to the accumulation of alkaloids and phenolic secondary metabolites, increasing and changing the release of volatile signal compounds, and even forming defense structures such as trichomes and resin canals. Plants treated with jasmonic acid have increased mortality of phytophagous animals and become more attractive to predatory and parasitic natural enemies. Volatile compounds, methyl jasmonate, can enter the plant body from the stomata of the plant and be hydrolyzed to jasmonic acid in the cytoplasm by esterases, achieving long-distance signal transduction and interplant communication to induce neighboring plants to produce induced defense responses.

[0003] Jasmonic acid and methyl jasmonate have four stereoisomers, of which the cis structure is active, but the cis structure is unstable and can epimerize to the trans structure.

[0004] Patent document CN101001524B reports a salt of dihydrojasmonic acid and its use in agriculture.

[0007] There is still a need in the industry to optimize the stability of jasmonic acid (ester) derivatives and obtain better agricultural use. SUMMARY

[0008] The present application finds that the jasmonic acid ester derivative modified by cyclopropanation can stabilize the structure without affecting the activity, and is non-toxic and harmless, and the modified derivative has new activity and can be used as a new type of plant growth regulator and bacteriostatic agent or fungicide.

[0148] 1. The test results show that Br-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate, N heterocyclic methyl jasmonate, and Cl-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate have obvious sugar-increasing effect on summer black grape.

[0149] 2. After the treatment of the jasmonate derivatives of the present application, the coloring time of the grapes is significantly shortened, and 60-80% of the grapes can be colored after 7 days of treatment, which shows that the jasmonate derivatives of the present application have a color-enhancing effect.

[0150] Example 5 Bacteriostatic experiment

[0151] Drug concentration: 10000 ppm methyl jasmonate, Br-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate, N-heterocyclic methyl jasmonate and Cl-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate were respectively configured.

[0152] Experimental method: In the clean bench, the prepared drug solution was added to the PDA medium after sterilization at about 50°C, and mixed thoroughly to prepare the drug-containing PDA plate with a final concentration of 50 mg / L. The PDA plate without drug was used as a blank control, and each treatment was repeated 3 times. After the medium was solidified, a 7 mm diameter punch was used to take a bacterial cake from the edge of the activated test bacteria plate, and the mycelium was inoculated in the center of the drug-containing plate with the mycelium facing down. Press gently to make it adhere to the surface of the medium. Cover the culture dish cover and invert it in a 25°C incubator in the dark. When the colony diameter of the blank control grows to 5-6 cm, the colony diameter of each treatment group is measured by cross method, and the mycelial growth inhibition rate of the cyclopropane methyl jasmonate compound on the test fungus is calculated.

[0153] The mycelial growth inhibition rate is calculated as follows:

[0154] Inhibition rate (%) = (Dc-Dt) / Dc x 100

[0155] In the formula, Dc is the average diameter of the control group (mm), and Dt is the average diameter of the drug treatment group (mm).

[0158]

[0159] Compared with methyl jasmonate, Br-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate, N-heterocyclic methyl jasmonate and Cl-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate have obvious bacteriostatic effect on Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cinerea.

[0160] Example 6 Environmental impact experiment-wheat seed germination

[0161] Test method: Select the same size, full grain wheat seeds, first with sodium hypochlorite (concentration of 2.5%) disinfection 15 min, then with distilled water to clean the seeds, and then the seeds in the treatment solution for 8h. After soaking in the culture dish with two layers of filter paper, the grain abdominal groove is evenly placed downward, and the culture dish is placed in a (25±1)℃ incubator, and germination is carried out in the dark.

[0162] Distilled water is added to the culture dish every day to keep the filter paper wet, and the seed germination condition is observed. The germination rate, bud length and root length are measured on the 6th day, and the data is recorded.

[0163] Experimental group setting: set up one control group and six experimental groups. The treatment concentration is: abscisic acid 20mg / L, methyl jasmonate 20mg / L, Br-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate 20mg / L, N heterocyclic methyl jasmonate 20mg / L, Cl-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate 20mg / L, dihydro methyl jasmonate 20mg / L. Each group has 50 seeds, and three replicates are set.

[0164] The test results are shown in Tables 3-5. The test results show that Br-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate, N heterocyclic methyl jasmonate and Cl-cyclopropane methyl jasmonate do not have a negative effect on the germination rate, bud length and root length of wheat seeds.
