Comparative X-Ray Crystallographic Studies Of Systemic Fungicide Hexaconozole And Tricyclazole

Abstract

The activity of fungicides is intimately related to its chemical structure. Knowledge about the chemical structure of a chemical is useful for the synthesis of new compounds with more specific actions and fewer adverse reactions, to increase/decrease the duration of action of the original fungicide or to get a more potent compound, to restrict the action to a specific system of the plant body and to reduce the adverse reactions, toxicity and other disadvantages associated. We can understand the basic chemical groups responsible for fungicidal action. A systemic fungicide is defined as systemic fungi toxic compound that controls a fungus pathogen remote from the point of application and that can be detected or identified ².These compounds are absorbed by the plant and get translocated within it, thus providing protection as well as eradicating already established infection.
