Abstract
In order to develop an efficient and broad-spectrum bactericide, a series of novel capsaicin derivatives containing a sulfonic acid esters moiety was synthesized. The structure of these compounds were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrum (HRMS). The results of the bioactivities revealed that some target compounds exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity. Compound 3b exhibited the highest activities against Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), and the values were 86, 54, and 92% at 50 μg/ml, respectively, which were higher than were for thiodiazole copper (87, 34, and 77%) and bismerthiazol (87, 37 and 75%). Although some compounds also showed certain activity against Spodoptera frugiperda, it was weaker than the positive controls monosultap and mulfoxaflor. Thus, the bioassay results recommend that these newly designed and synthesized scaffolds should be used as a bactericide lead compound rather than an insecticide lead compound.
