Abstract

Synthesis of indole phytoalexins brassinin, brassitin, cyclobrassinin and related compounds via 3-aminomethylindole and its 1-substituted derivatives obtained by nickel boride catalyzed reduction of corresponding aldoximes with sodium borohydride and via[1-( t-butoxycarbonyl)-indol-3-yl]methyl isothiocyanate, the first stable derivative of indol-3-ylmethyl isothiocyanate is described. Antifungal activity of the prepared compounds was examined by using the fungus Bipolaris leersiae by t.l.c. bioassay and quantitative screening was carried out with the selected compounds.
