title: Synthesis and root growth-inhibitory activity of 2- and 3-(haloacetylamino)-3-(2-furyl)propanoic acids.
abstract: A convenient synthesis of 2- and 3-(chloroacetylamino)-3-(2-furyl)propanoic acids (6a, 7a) and their fluoro analogs were developed. Both 6a and 7a showed 51-55% root growth-inhibitory activity towards rape seedlings at the concentration of 1.0x10(-4) M.
