Abstract

In order to search for novel Protox inhibitors with high efficiency, broad-spectrum activity, and safety to crops, commercially herbicide butafenacil was used as lead compound for further optimization, a series of title compounds 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3h, 3i were designed and synthesized by introducing benzothiazol-2-yl moiety into the uracil skeleton. The bioassays indicated that some of the target compounds displayed moderate herbicidal activities in the post-emergence treatment.
