New morpholinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines 2(X=O) and piperidinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines 3(X=C) to which morpholinyl or piperidinyl functional group were introduced at C-4 side chain of the 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazoline scaffold were synthesized to investigate the effect of NH hydrogen of 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazoline-4-acetanilide derivatives on the antifungal property against rice blast. Synthesized 30 compounds were screened against 6 kinds of typical plant fungi. Treatment of ketene dimer with chlorine followed by the reaction of morphorine or piperidine without isolation of the intermediate acetoacetylchloride gave $\gamma$-chloro-$\beta$-keto derivatives. These were reacted with thioureas to give morpholinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines and piperidinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines respectively in good yield (27-98%). The compound 3j, in which two fluorine atoms are substituted at ortho and para position of phenyl group of 2-phenylimino moiety and piperidinyl group is substituted at C-4, showed the highest antifungal activity (100 ppm, 90%). This result suggested that the substituent at C-4 of the 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines may play a supplementary role to show the antifungal activity against rice blast.

Fungicidal activities against phytopathogenic fungi of diarylthiazole compound of 4-[5-(2-cyclopropylaminopyrimidin-4-yl)-4-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-5-yl]-1-methylpiperidine (I) have been determined to be excellent and compound I was used as the leading compounds in this study. Furthermore, the compound was synthesized by reacting them with five functional groups, 4-fluoro-3-methylphenyl, 4-fluoro-3-chlorophenyl, 4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl, 4-bromo-3-methylphenyl and 2,4-dichlorophenyl groups instead of 4-fluorophenyl group. Also, 2-amino-, 2-(N-ethoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-yl-, and 2-piperidin-4-yl-thiazole were introduced as the leads instead of 2-N-methylpiperidine-4-yl-thiazol of compound I. VIII-1~VIII-5 and XIII-1~XV-5 compounds were newly synthesized and their structures were confirmed by $^1H$-NMR-spectrum. The fungicidal activities of all the synthesized compounds against Phytophthora capsici were examined using the whole plant method. Among the VIII-1~VIII-5 and XIII-1~XV-5 chemicals, XIV-3 showed the most potent antifungal activity in vivo. While the $EC_{50}$ and $EC_{90}$ values of the commercial fungicide dimethomorph and I were $4.26{\pm}0.02$, $14.72{\pm}0.05$ and $1.01{\pm}0.11$, $6.31{\pm}0.09mM$, those of 4-[5-(2-cyclopropylaminopyrimidin-4-yl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)thiazol-5-yl]-1-methylpiperidine (XIV-3) was $0.98{\pm}0.21$ and $5.85{\pm}0.05mM$. Therefore, XIV-3 can be considered as a viable candidate for the control of plant diseases caused by P. capsici, and further studies will be conducted on the mode of action XIV-3.
