Severe plant virus diseases lead to poor harvests and poor crop quality, and the lack of effective suppressive drugs makes plant disease control a huge challenge. Natural product-based structural simplification is an important strategy for finding novel pesticide candidates. According to our previous research on the antiviral activities of harmine and tetrahydroharmine derivatives, a series of chiral diamine compounds were designed and synthesized by means of structural simplification using diamines in natural products as the core structure in this work, and the antiviral and fungicidal activities were investigated. Most of these compounds displayed higher antiviral activities than those of ribavirin. Compounds and displayed higher antiviral activities than ningnanmycin at 500 μg/mL. The antiviral mechanism research revealed that compounds and could inhibit virus assembly by binding to tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) CP and interfere with the assembly process of TMV CP and RNA transmission electron microscopy and molecular docking. Further fungicidal activity tests showed that these compounds displayed broad-spectrum fungicidal activities. Compounds , , , and with excellent fungicidal activities against f.sp. can be considered as new fungicidal candidates for further research. The current work provides a reference to the development of agricultural active ingredients in crop protection.
严重的植物病毒病导致收成不佳和作物质量下降,而缺乏有效的抑制药物使得植物病害防治成为一个巨大的挑战。基于天然产物的结构简化是寻找新型农药候选物的重要策略。根据我们之前对 harmine 和 tetrahydroharmine 衍生物抗病毒活性的研究,本工作以天然产物中的二胺为核心结构,通过结构简化的方法设计并合成了一系列手性二胺化合物,研究了它们的抗病毒和杀菌活性。这些化合物中的大多数显示出比利巴韦林更高的抗病毒活性。化合物 和 在 500 μg/mL 时显示出比宁南霉素更高的抗病毒活性。抗病毒机制研究表明,化合物 和 可以通过与烟草花叶病毒(TMV)CP 结合来抑制病毒组装,并干扰 TMV CP 和 RNA 之间的组装过程。进一步的杀菌活性测试表明,这些化合物表现出广谱的杀菌活性。化合物 、 、 、 和 对 f.sp. 的杀菌活性较好,可以考虑作为进一步研究的新型杀菌候选物。本工作为作物保护中农业活性成分的开发提供了参考。
