Inspired by the widely antiphytopathogenic application of diversified derivatives from natural sources, cryptolepine and its derivatives were subsequently designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antifungal activities against four agriculturally important fungi Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium graminearum, and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The results obtained from in vitro assay indicated that compounds a1-a24 showed great fungicidal property against B. cinerea (EC50 4 μg/mL); especially, a3 presented significantly prominent inhibitory activity with an EC50 of 0.027 μg/mL. In the pursuit of further expanding the antifungal spectrum of cryptolepine, ring-opened compound f1 produced better activity with an EC50 of 3.632 μg/mL against R. solani and an EC50 of 5.599 μg/mL against F. graminearum. Furthermore, a3 was selected to be a candidate to investigate its preliminary antifungal mechanism to B. cinerea, revealing that not only spore germination was effectively inhibited and the normal physiological structure of mycelium was severely undermined but also detrimental reactive oxygen was obviously accumulated and the normal function of the nucleus was fairly disordered. Besides, in vivo curative experiment against B. cinerea found that the therapeutic action of a3 was comparable to that of the positive control azoxystrobin. These results suggested that compound a3 could be regarded as a novel and promising agent against B. cinerea for its valuable potency.

A metal-free electrochemical intramolecular C(sp2)-H amination using iodine as a mediator was developed. This method enables a switchable synthesis of indoline and indole derivatives, respectively, from easily available 2-vinyl anilines.

Nortopsentin alkaloids were found to have potent antiviral, anti-phytopathogenic-fungus, and insecticidal activities for the first time. Antiviral-activity tests revealed that these compounds were very sensitive to substituents, so a series of nortopsentin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and systematically evaluated for their antiviral activities against TMV, their fungicidal activities, and their insecticidal activities on the basis of a structural-diversity-derivation strategy. Compounds 2e (in vivo inactivation-, curative-, and protective-activity inhibitory rates of 50, 59, and 56%, respectively, at 500 μg/mL) and 2k (in vivo inactivation-, curative-, and protective-activity inhibitory rates of 60, 58, and 52%, respectively, at 500 μg/mL), with excellent antiviral activities and good physicochemical properties, emerged as new lead compounds for novel-antiviral-agent development. Further fungicidal-activity tests revealed that these alkaloids displayed broad-spectrum fungicidal activities. Compounds 2f, 2h, and 2j emerged as new lead compounds for antifungal-activity research. Additionally, all the compounds displayed good insecticidal activities against five kinds of insects, including Mythimna separate, Helicoverpa armigera, Ostrinia nubilalis, Plutella xylostella, and Culex pipiens pallens.
