Abstract

Abstract Many compounds containing a-CONH-group display photosynthesis inhibiting activity. Based on this structural feature, a group of anilides of 2-alkylthio-(1b-4f) or 2-chloro- 6-alkylthio-4-pyridinecarboxylic acids (5a-6c) was synthesised. The prepared compounds were tested for their inhibition of the oxygen evolution rate (OER) in spinach chloroplasts. A quasi-parabolic dependence between photosynthesis-inhibiting activity and the ...
