A new series of cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic (CPD) acid analogues were designed and synthesized. CPD is an inhibitor of ketol-acid reductoisomerase (KARI), an enzyme of the branched chain amino acid pathway in plants. The structures of CPD analogues were characterized by 1H NMR and HRMS. The structure of N,N'-bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide was further elucidated by X-ray diffraction. The herbicidal activities of these compounds were tested against lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera). Most of these compounds exhibited low herbicidal activity against both plant species. Among them, N,N'-bis(2-ethylphenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide displayed moderate activity against bentgrass. Inhibition of KARI activity by the CPD analogues was also assessed experimentally and by molecular docking simulation with results supporting inhibition of KARI as their mode of action. These results provide the basis for design of more effective KARI inhibitors.
