The relationships between three dimensional quantitative structure and activity relationships (3D-QSARs) for the selective fungicidal function between N-phenyl substituents of N-phenyl-O-phenyl-thionocarbamate derivatives analogues and their the fungicidal activities against resistant (RBC) and sensitive (SBC) gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) were studied quantitatively using CoMFA and CoMSIA methods. The statistical values of optimized CoMSIA (M7) model were better ($r^2$ & $q^2=CoMSIA{\gg}CoMFA$) than that of CoMFA (M5) model. And the factor influencing of the selective between the fungicidal activity against RBC and SBC was dependent on electrostatic field of CoMFA (M5) model. Therefore, it is predicted that, from the CoMSIA contour maps of CoMSIA (M7) model, the selectivity will be improved by the H-bond donor that is with negatively charged favored group at meta-position on the N-phenyl ring.

Three dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships (3D-QSARs) for the fungicidal activities against Rhizoctonia solani (RS) and Phytophthora capsici (PC) by N-phenyl substituents(X) of N-phenylthionocarbamate derivatives were studied quantitatively using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) methodology based on different alignment approaches. Statistical quality of CoMFA models with field fit alignment were slightly higher than that of atom based fit alignment. The optimized CoMFA models (RS: RF2 & PC: PF2) were derived from field fit alignment and combination of CoMFA fields. And the statistical results of the two models showed the best predictability of the fungicidal activities based on the cross-validated value $q^2$ ($r^2_{cv.}$ =RS: 0.557 & PC: 0.676) and non-cross-validated value ($r^2_{ncv.}$ =RS: 0.954 & PC: 0.968), respectively. The selective fungicidal activities between two fungi were dependence upon the electrostatic field of substrate molecule. Therefore, the fungicidal activities from CoMFA contour maps showed that the fungicidal activity will be able to increased according to the modification of X-substituents on the substrate molecules.

A series of N-phenyl-O-phenylthionocarbamate derivatives were synthesized and determinated fungicidal activities in vitro against gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) and capsicum phytophthora blight (Phytophthora capsici) which showed resistance and sensitivity to benomyl and metalaxyl as systemic fungicides, respectively. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) was investigated by Free-Wilson analysis method and Hansch method. From the basis on the findings, the N-phenyl(X) groups had more contributions than O-phenyl(Y) groups did and ortho-substituents on the N-phenyl group showed high fungicidal activities. Especially, 4-cyano substituent, 2 as X-group showed 50% inhibition($pI_{50}=5.50$) of hyphae growth at 0.8ppm against resistance P. capsici (RPC) And hydroxyl substituents, 12 and 23 displayed the highest fungicidal activity against resistant B. cinerea (RBC), sensitive B. cinerea (SBC), and sensitive P. capsici (SPC). Antifungal activities of SPC were dependent upon molar refractivity (MR) constant and those of others relied on hydrophobic parameters (${\sigma}$ and logP). For increasing fungicidal activity against RPC and SBC, the optimum values of the sigma (${\sigma}$) and field(F) constants as electron withdrawing groups were 0.32 and 0.18, respectively.

Three dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships (3D-QSARs) on the fungicidal activity of N-phenyl-O-phenylthionocarbamate analogues against resistant and sensitive gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) (RBC & SBC) were studied quantitatively using CoMFA and CoMSIA methods. The correlation coefficient and predict- ability of optimized CoMFA model with the atom based fit alignment were better ($r^2$ & $q^2=CoMFA{\gg}CoMSIA$) than that of CoMSIA model. And statistical values of the models on the fungicidal activity against SBC were showed higher ($r^2=SBC{\gg}RBC$) than that of RBC. In CoMFA models, steric field on the activity was more influenced than electrostatic field. And in case of CoMSIA models, the influence of CoMSIA field on the activity against RBC and SBC was differ from each other but the influence of H-bond donor field was same to the two fungi. It is revealed that the selectivity factor with CoMFA model on the fungicidal activity between the two fungi was caused on the difference of steric field. Therefore, it is predicted that the large steric field with meta- and para-substituents on the N-phenyl ring will be improved to the fungicidal activity with SBC.

Comparative molecular similarity indice analysis (CoMSIA) models on the fungicidal activities of N-phenyl substituents (X) in N-phenyl-O-phenylthionocarbamate derivatives against rice sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani: RS) and phytophthora blight (Phytophthora capsici: PC) were derived. Also, the characterizations of H-bonds between substrates and ${\beta}-tubulin$ were discussed quantitatively. It was revealed that, from the contour maps of CoMSIA models, the H-bond acceptor field contributed the most highly to fungicidal activity for two fungi in common. It is predicted that the selectivity in the fungicidal activity between two fungi is caused by results from the roles of H-bond donor disfavor functional groups in RS and H-bond acceptor disfavor functional groups in PC when these two groups induced at meta- and para-position on the N-phenyl ring. And also, if the substituents (X) are steric disfavor group, negative charge favor groups are introduced at the metaposition in RS and H-bond acceptor group is introduced at the para-position in PC, the antifungal activity against two fungi will be likely able to be increased.
