Synthesis and fungicidal activity of tetrazole-containing thioethers of the 2(5H)-furanone series
摘要
The reactions of 5-substituted 3,4-dichloro-2(5H)-furanone derivatives with 5-mercapto-1-phenyltetrazole in the presence of triethylamine afforded a series of heterocycles containing the tetrazolylsulfanyl moiety at the carbon atom C(4) of the lactone ring. The structures of four new 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles were established by X-ray diffraction. A number of heterocycles were found to exhibit moderate antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger, Fusarium solani, Candida albicans, and Alternaria alternata; however, none of the compounds possessed antibacterial activity.
