Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pesticides, in particular to a coumarin analogue modified by isopropanolamine and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Pesticides are an important part of agricultural production. Proper use of fungicides can effectively prevent yield reduction or fruit quality decline caused by plant pathogenic fungi, and avoid causing serious economic losses. However, due to the unreasonable use of traditional fungicides and the long-term application of single formulations, many common pathogenic fungi have developed serious drug resistance. Therefore, it is still of great significance to continuously optimize the lead compounds and develop fungicides with new action mechanisms, high efficiency, low toxicity and environmental friendliness.

[0003] Natural products play a very important role in the field of pesticide development. Many important commercial pesticides are developed based on natural products, such as methoxy acrylate fungicides. The coumarin skeleton structure of natural products includes a benzene ring and an α-pyrone ring, which has a wide range of pharmacological activities, such as anticancer, antioxidant, anti-insect, herbicidal and fungicidal activities. For example, in the previous work of developing new fungicides, Liu Changling et al. successfully developed a new fungicide coumoxystrobin with independent intellectual property rights by combining the coumarin skeleton fragment with the methoxy acrylate active structure. The compound shows superior control effect on crop powdery mildew, downy mildew and anthracnose.

[0058] Example 2

[0059] In vitro toxicity determination of target compounds on plant pathogenic fungi

[0060] The mycelial growth rate method was used to determine the in vitro toxicity activity of the target compounds on various plant pathogenic fungi, and the specific process was as follows:

[0061] The target compound was dissolved in acetone or dichloromethane or DMSO to prepare a 2000 µM stock solution. Under sterile operating conditions, the prepared 2000 µM was diluted with culture medium to prepare a 50 µM toxic culture medium plate, and a blank control without drug treatment was set up, and each was repeated 3 times.

[0062] According to the agricultural industry standard of the People's Republic of China (NY / T 1156.2-2006), the mycelial growth rate method was used for determination. The cultured pathogenic fungi were cut into 5 mm diameter sterile punchers from the edge of the colony, and the punchers were inoculated into the center of the plate containing the drug using an inoculator, with the mycelium facing down, covered with a culture dish cover, and placed in a 25°C incubator.

[0063] According to the growth of the mycelium in the blank control plate, the growth of the mycelium was investigated, and after the mycelium in the blank control plate grew fully, the diameter of each treatment mycelium was measured by the cross method, and the following formula was used to calculate the mycelial growth diameter, and the average value was taken.

[0064] Mycelial growth diameter = colony diameter - puncher diameter

[0065] The determination results were calculated using the following formula, and the inhibition rate of each drug treatment on the mycelial growth of various pathogenic fungi was calculated based on the mycelial growth diameter of the blank control and the mycelial growth diameter of the drug treatment

[0066] Mycelial growth inhibition rate (%) = [(control mycelial growth diameter-drug treatment mycelial growth diameter) / blank control mycelial growth diameter] x 100

[0067] The test results of some compounds are shown in Table 3:

[0068] Table 3 - In vitro fungicidal activity determination results (%) of some compounds

[0069]

[0070] As shown in Table 3, some target compounds showed moderate or above inhibition effect on rice blast, cabbage sclerotinia, cotton damping-off, pepper late blight, and wheat scab, and had broad-spectrum fungicidal activity, such as compounds 27, 40, 44, 46, 47, etc. In addition, at the same concentration, compounds 40 and 47 showed extremely excellent inhibition activity on the five kinds of pathogenic fungi tested. In summary, compounds 40 and 47 have high application potential and development value.

[0071] Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, the application is not limited to such but encompasses any modifications or alternatives within the scope of the application as disclosed in the appended claims.
