Abstract
A number of analogs of lunularic acid varying in the number of methylene carbons between the two benzene rings and in the substituents on their rings were prepared, and their effects on the growth of liverwort gemmaling, watercress, and timothy grass were investigated. Almost all the analogs tested were more inhibitory than lunularic acid, and a correlation between the structure and activity was observed. The differences in the growth-inhibition activity of analogs between higher and lower plants are also discussed.
