Novel Coumarin Derivatives Containing Oxazole/Isoxazole/Pyrazole Groups as Antifungal Agents: Design, Synthesis, Quantitative Structure–Activity Relationships, and Preliminary Mechanistic Insights

Plant pathogenic fungi pose a significant threat to global crop productivity and food security. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of 55 coumarin–oxazole, −isoxazole, and −pyrazole hybrids as novel antifungal agents. Most derivatives exhibited notable potency, with C1, C4, and C5 showing strong activity again...
