Hs. Chen et al., Synthesis and fungicidal activity against Rhizoctonia solani of 2-alkyl (alkylthio)-5-pyrazolyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (thiadiazoles), J AGR FOOD, 48(11), 2000, pp. 5312-5315
Some series of 2-alkyl (alkythio)-5-((4-chloro)-3-ethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol
e-5-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (thiadiazoles) were prepared as potential fungici
des. Their fungicidal activity was evaluated against rice sheath blight, wh
ich is a major disease of rice in China. Structure-activity relationships f
or the screened compounds were evaluated and discussed. It was found that 5
-(4-chloro-3-ethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thione ha
s the higher fungicidal activity.
