Novel Sulfoximine Derivatives Containing Cyanoguanidine and Nitroguanidine Moieties: Design, Synthesis, and Bioactivities.

A total of 32 novel sulfoximines bearing cyanoguanidine and nitroguanidine moieties were designed and synthesized by a rational molecule design strategy. The bioactivities of the title compounds were evaluated and the results revealed that some of the target compounds possessed excellent antifungal activities against six agricultural fungi, including , , , , , and . Among them, compounds and exhibited significant efficacy against with EC values of 2.

Design, synthesis, and antifungal activities of novel sulfoximine derivatives for plant protection.

Background: Fungicides play a significant role in the integrated management of plant pathogens. However, the irrational application of fungicides with similar structures has led to development of cross-resistance, therefore there is a need to seek novel fungicides with new structures.

Results: Twenty-eight novel sulfoximine derivatives incorporating nitroguanidine moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as antifungal agents.

Design, Synthesis, and Antifungal Activity of Sulfoximine Derivatives Containing Nitroguanidine Moieties.

To discover novel pesticide candidates, a series of sulfoximine derivatives were designed and synthesized via the oxidation coupling reaction of sulfides and N-alkyl nitroguanidines. The compounds were evaluated for their antifungal activity against six phytopathogenic fungi. Most of them exhibited a broad spectrum of fungicidal activity in vitro.
