(R)-2-Phenylpropylamide

CAS: 14182-57-1

(R)-2-Phenylpropylamide is an organic compound that has been synthesized to be a potential fungicide. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of Fusarium verticillioides, a fungus that causes wilt disease in plants. The compound is stereoselective and inhibits the growth of the fungus by inhibiting carbon metabolism at the level of pantolactone synthesis. The bacterial strain used in this study was Pantoea agglomerans, which was found on leaves and roots of six different plant species. (R)-2-Phenylpropylamide also showed antibacterial activity against Pantoea agglomerans and other bacteria. This compound had no significant effect on plant height, leaf area, or total root length. The metabolites were not detected in soil samples after two months, suggesting that (R)-2-phenylpropylamide may not have long-term effects on soil quality.
