Abstract
A series of chalcone derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazolo-[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole was designed and synthesized. Structures of all compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 19F NMR, and HRMS. The biological activities of the compounds were determined with the mycelial growth rate method, and further studies showed that some compounds had good antifungal activities at the concentration of 100 μg/mL. The EC50 value of compound L31 was 15.9 μg/mL against Phomopsis sp., which were better than that of azoxystrobin (EC50 value was 69.4 μg/mL). In addition, the mechanism of action of compound L31 shown that compound can affect mycelial growth by disrupting membrane integrity against Phomopsis sp., and that the higher the concentration of the compound is, the greater the disruption of membrane integrity is.

Abstract
The increasing resistance displayed by plant phytopathogenic bacteria to conventional pesticides has heightened the urgency for the exploration of novel antibacterial agents possessing distinct modes of action (MOAs). In this study, a series of novel phenylalanine derivatives with the unique structure of acylhydrazone dithioether have been designed and synthesized. Bioassay results demonstrated that most target compounds exhibited excellent in vitro antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv citri (Xac). Among them, the EC50 values of L3, L4, L6, L21, and L22 against Xoo were 7.4, 9.3, 6.7, 8.9, and 5.1 μg/mL, respectively, superior to that of bismerthiazol (BT) and thiodiazole copper (TC) (41.5 and >100 μg/mL); the EC50 values of L3, L4, L5, L6, L7, L8, L20, L21, and L22 against Xac were 5.6, 2.5, 6.2, 4.1, 4.2, 6.4, 6.3, 3.6, and 5.2 μg/mL, respectively, superior to that of BT and TC (43.3 and >100 μg/mL). An unmodified drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) technology was used to investigate the antibacterial MOAs of active compound L22, and the 50S ribosomal protein L2 (RL2) as an unprecedented target protein in Xoo cells was first discovered. The target protein RL2 was then expressed and purified. Furthermore, the in vitro interactions by microscale thermophoresis (Kd = 0.050 μM) and fluorescence titration (Ka = 1.4 × 105 M-1) experiments also demonstrated a strong binding force between compound L22 and RL2. Overall, these results not only facilitate the development of novel antibacterial agents but also establish a reliable method for exploring the targets of bactericides.
