Starting from L-tryptophan, 19 new N-substituted chiral indole analogs were synthesized. The prepared compounds were evaluated for biological activity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Alternaria solani, Verticillium dahliae, Colletotrichum orbiculare, Cytospora juglandis and Curvularia lunata. The preliminary bioassays showed that most of the synthesized compounds exhibited fungicidal activity. Compound b13 in particular exhibited significant antifungal activity against Verticillium dahliae and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, with the MIC value of 1.95 µg mL-1. Compound b13 also showed excellent activity against six plant pathogen fungi, and was identified as the most active on the biological assays, and will be studied further.
