Abstract
A series of substituted 2,2'-bipyridine derivatives was prepared using the Krohnke reaction and alkylation of 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine. These compounds were screened for fungicidal activity against 9 plant diseases. 5-Phenyl-2,2'-bipyridine exhibited strong preventative and curative fungicidal activity against wheat powdery mildew (Erisyple gr aminis) and wheat leaf rust (Puccinia recondita).
