Abstract
Eight C-phenyl substituted benzal-4-fluoroanilines (I-VIII) were synthesized by condensing 4-fluoroaniline with benzaldehyde and substituted benzaldehydes in equimolar ratio. The structures of compounds l-VIII were established on the basis of elemental analysis and spectral studies. The band at 260–280 nm in UV and -1625 cm’1 in IR indicated the presence of carbon-nitrogen double bond. In PMR spectra the one proton singlet at 5 8.3 was assigned to azomethinic proton. In mass spectra the molecular ion peak constituted the base peak. The compounds l-VIII were screened in vitro for their antifungal activity against Alternaria alternata, Fusarium oxysporum, Myrothecium roridum, Colletotrichum capsici and Ustilago tritici. Some of the compounds have shown moderate activity against A. alternata, C. capsici and M. roridum.
