To continue our research on developing PPO inhibitors, we replaced the triazinone core of compounds B, G, and H from our previous work with pyrimidinediones, employing a scaffold-hopping strategy to design and synthesize compounds I, J, and K. Compound I18 exhibited potent NtPPO inhibition (Ki = 10.9 nM) and broad-sp...

Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) is one of the major targets for herbicide discovery. N-Phenylpyrazole derivatives bearing ester, oxime, and isoxazoline moieties were synthesized via isomerization, derivatization and cyclization. Bioassays showed C34 potently inhibited Nicotiana tabacum PPO (NtPPO) (Ki = 15.6 nM), wi...

The application of herbicides plays a critical role in ensuring food security. However, the long-term overuse of herbicides can lead to a range of adverse effects. Therefore, it is essential to develop innovative and sustainable herbicides. A series of pyridazinone derivatives targeting phytoene desaturase (PDS) were d...

The use of herbicides represents one of the effective weed management strategies. To create high-efficiency, low-risk protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (PPO)-targeted herbicides, a set of novel N-phenylphthalimides bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole and acylhydrazide fragments was designed and synthesized. Bioassays revealed that mo...

4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) is a vital target for herbicide development. A series of pyrazole-quinoxaline conjugates were designed and synthesized via scaffold hopping and structural optimization. Bioassays revealed that B9 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against Arabidopsis thaliana HPPD (AtHPPD) w...
