Rubrolides as model for the development of new lactones and their aza analogs as potential photosynthesis inhibitors.

Chem. Biodivers. 12 , 987-1006, (2015)

Natural phytotoxins and their synthetic analogs are a potential source of new bioactive compounds for agriculture. Analogs of rubrolides, a class of γ-alkylidene-γ-lactones isolated from different ascidians, have been shown to interfere with the photosyntheti...
