Discovery of bridged tetraoxanes and bridged ozonides. Use as fungicidal agents

Abstract

The biological activity of organic peroxides is usually associated with the antimalarial properties of artemisinin and its derivatives. However, organic peroxides exhibit diverse biological activity, which is still not receiving enough attention. In this work, we tested in vitro 13 cyclic organic peroxides belonging to such classes of peroxides as ozonides and 12,4,5-tetraoxanes with respect to phytopathogenic fungi such as: Venturia inaequalis, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium moniliforme, Helminthoporus sativum.
