새로운 3-(4-치환-phenyl)-1-(2-furyl)propenone, 1과 3-(4-치환-phenyl)-1-(2-furyl)-3-thiophenylpropanones, 2 유도체를 합성하여 in vitro에서 잿빛 곰팡이균(Botrytis cineria, BC), 사과 부란병균(Valsa ceratosperma, VC), 마늘 균핵병균(Sclerotium cepivorum, SC) 및 고추 역병균(Phytophthora capsici, PC) 등의 곰팡이 균류에 대한 구조-항균활성 관계(SAR)를 알아보았다. 그 결과, 2보다 1이 비교적 큰 항균활성을 나타내었으며 특히, E(Syn)형의 4-chloro group 치환체, 1d나 비 치환체, 1a가 4가지 균중의 BC균에 대하여 가장 강력한 항균활성$(EC_{50}=10{sim}11;ppm)$을 보였다. 1의 가수분해 반응속도상수(logk)와 ${sigma}$상수사이에 좋은 상관성 $(r^2=0.90)$으로부터 치환기 (X)의 음하전과 ${eta}$탄소원자의 양하전에 의존적인 항균활성을 나타낼 것으로 예상되었다.
New 3-phenyl-1-(2-furyl)propenones, 1 and 3-phenyl-1-(2-furyl)-3-thiophenyl-propanone, 2 derivatives were synthesized, and their fungicidal activities in vitro against Botrytis cineria (BC), Valsa ceratosperma (VC), Scelerotium cepivorum (SC) and Phytophthora capsici (PC) were investigated using a generalized structure-activity relationship (SAR). The activity of 1 was superior to those of 2, and nonsubstituent, 1a and chloro group substituent, 1d of E (Syn) conformer were the most effective $(EC_{50}=10{sim}12;ppm)$ compound to BC. Antifungal activities were able to predict to depend essentially on the ${eta}$ carbon and their positive charge from the results that the good correlation $(r^2=0.90)$ was observed between hydrolysis rate constant (logk) of 1 and the electronic parameter $({sigma})$ of X-substituent on the ${eta}-phenyl$ ring.
