Abstract :

Three natural products, 1,5-diphenylpentan-1-one, 1,5-diphenylpent-2-en-1-one, and 3-hydroxy-1,5-diphenylpentan-1-one, with good insecticidal activities were extracted from Stellera chamaejasme L. Based on their shared diaryl ketone moiety as 'pharmacophores', a series of diaryl ketones were synthesized and tested for insecticidal activity, acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity, and antifungal activity. All synthesized compounds showed poor insecticidal and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities. Compound III with a furyl ring showed strong activities against plant pathogenic fungi. The IC(50) of compound (E)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-(furan-2-yl)- -prop-2-en-1-one (III(2) ) was 1.20 mg/L against Rhizoctonia solani, suggesting its strong potential as a novel antifungal drug.
