Abstract:

Many thioureas, some of therapeutic use, have plant-growth inhibitory activity, therefore we have considered useful the phytobiological testing of some new compounds having thiourea scaffold, synthesized from 2-thiophenecarboxylic, 3-thiophenecarboxylic and 2-thiopheneacetic acids, using Constantinescu method, Triticum test. It has been shown that the effect on mitosis, of the nine tested compounds, is directly proportional to the concentration of solutions and does not depend substantially on the nature and position of the substitutes on the aromatic ring. It was found also, that the most pronounced inhibitory effect was for 2-thiopheneacetic acid thioureas and the effect is decreasing in intensity for 3-thiophenecarboxilic and 2-thiophenecarboxilic derivatives.
