Mothicidal Rhodanine Derivatives

Abstract

THE fungitoxicological properties of a variety of rhodanine derivatives are well established and have been the subject of considerable study1–3. In particular, the class of compounds obtained by the condensation of rhodanine (I) or a 3-substituted congener with carbonylic compounds may be conviently used for the investigation of the interrelationships of chemical structure and fungicidal activity.
