Aiming to discover novel high-efficient antifungal leads that possess an innovative action mechanism, twenty-three carboxylated pyrroline-2-one derivatives, bearing a phenylhydrazine moiety, were rationally designed and firstly prepared in this letter. The in vitro bioassays showed that most of the compounds possessed excellent antifungal effects with the EC50 values of less than 1 mu g/mL against the phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium graminearum (Fg), Botrytis cinerea (Bc), Rhizoctonia solani (Rs) and Colletotrichum capsici (Cc). The further bioassays showed that the compound 6u showed the comparable in vivo control effect with carbendazim against fusarium head blight and rice sheath blight. The 3D-QSAR model revealed the pivotal effects of a bulky electron-donating group at the 1-position of pyrrolering, a bulky electron-withdrawing group at the 4-position of phenyl ring and a small alkyl at the carbonate group on the anti-Rs activities of target compounds. The abnormal mycelial morphology and delayed spore germination were observed in the treatments of compound 6u. Given the excellent and broad-spectrum antifungal effects the target compounds have, we unfeignedly anticipated that the above finding could motivate the discovery of high-efficient antifungal leads, which might possess an innovative action mechanism against phytopathogenic fungi.
