Abstract : Twenty-six compounds, derivatives of amides, hydrazines, hydrazides, hydrazones, and semicarbazides, with a 2,4-dihydroxythiobenzoyl moiety, were synthesized from sulfinyl-bis(2,4-dihydroxythiobenzoyl). The compositions and chemical structures of these compounds were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, EI-MS, and elemental analysis. Antifungal properties of chemicals under in vitro conditions against five phytopathogenic fungi were estimated. In vivo studies against Erisiphe graminis were also carried out. The compounds N-substituted with an 2,4-dihydroxythiobenzamide group proved to be the most active. N-2-(1-Cinnamylbenzene ester)-2,4-dihydroxythiobenzamide, under in vitro conditions, showed activity at the level of 80-100% development of most pathogens at a concentration of 20 microg/mL and partially at a concentration of 200 microg/mL. For compounds with -HN-NH- or -NH-N= moiety, weak or no fungistatic properties were found at the concentrations studied.
