Abstract: Several perinaphthenone/phenylphenalenone compounds were synthesized to establish a relationship between structure and antifungal activity against Mycosphaerella fijiensis. Substitutions on the unsaturated carbonyl system or addition of a phenyl group reduced antibiotic activity.
Keywords: phenylphenalenones; synthesis; antifungal activity; Mycosphaerella fijiensis
