To discover new succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHI) fungicides, a series of amide derivatives containing a pyrrolidine moiety were designed and synthesized, and their antifungal activities were evaluated against Monilinia fructicola (M. fructicola), Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani), Fusarium graminearum schw (F. graminearum), Fusarium oxysporum (F. oxysporum), and Phytophthora infestans (P. infestans). Some compounds showed excellent antifungal activities against the five fungi. Among them, compound 6 showed broad-spectrum inhibitory activities. The EC50 of compound 6 against M. fructicola, R. solani, F. graminearum, F. oxysporum, and P. infestans were 2.13, 14.42, 1.69, 27.79, and 27.12 mg/L, respectively. In addition, compound 6 can effectively inhibit the spore germination of M. fructicola and has moderate damage to the cell membrane. Compound 6 can effectively inhibit succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) of M. fructicola, and can significantly increase the expression levels of SDHC and SDHD. Compound 6 can be used as a lead structure for developing new SDH inhibitors.
