Abstract

Abstract Compounds of the general type ArCH2SnCH2CH2OH (n= 1–4, Ar= Ph. 2-MeC6H4, 4-MeC6H4, 4-ClC6H4, 4-MeOC6H4; n= 1–3, Ar= 2-ClC6H4; n= 2 Ar= 4-FC6H4; n= 3 or 4, Ar= 2-furyl) have been prepared as analogues of the trisulfide PhCH2SSSCH2CH2OH antimicrobial compound which occurs in the plant Petiveria alliacea) and their potential application as agricultural fungicides has been examined. In vitro tests against Fusarium ...
