An Efficient Microwave Synthesis of 3-Acyl-5-bromoindole Derivatives for Controlling Monilinia fructicola and Botrytis cinerea

Scientists developed new chemical compounds called indole derivatives that can kill harmful fungi that destroy fruit crops like stone fruits and grapes. These compounds were made using microwave heating, which is faster and more efficient than traditional methods. Testing showed that some of these new compounds were even better at fighting these fungal diseases than current commercial fungicides, offering promise for protecting crops in agriculture.

An Efficient Microwave Synthesis of 3-Acyl-5-bromoindole Derivatives for Controlling Monilinia fructicola and Botrytis cinerea

Scientists created new chemical compounds based on indole structures that can kill harmful fungi that destroy fruit crops. These compounds were made more efficiently using microwave heating and tested against two major crop pathogens that cause billions of dollars in losses annually. The most promising compound (A) proved even more effective than commercial fungicides at stopping fungal growth and spore germination. This research could lead to better, safer alternatives for protecting crops from fungal diseases.
