Novel plant growth regulators (PGRs) based on the derivatives of dehydroamino acids 2,3-dehydroaspartic acid dimethyl ester (PGR1), Z-isomer of the potassium salt of 2-amino-3-methoxycarbonylacrylic acid (PGR2) and 1-methyl-3-methylamino-maleimide (PGR3) have been synthesized and their growth-regulating properties investigated. Laboratory testing revealed their plant growth-regulating activity. PGR1 showing the most stimulating activity on all laboratory tested cultures were used in field experiments. Results showed that PGR1 is a highly effective environmentally friendly plant growth regulator with effects on different crops. Biopolymeric microcapsule formulations (chitosan/alginate microcapsule loaded with PGR) suitable for application in agriculture were prepared and characterized. Physicochemical properties and release profiles of PGRs from microcapsule formulations depend on the molecular interactions between microcapsule constituents including mainly electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds. The differences in the microcapsule formulations structure did not affect the mechanism of PGRs release which was identified as diffusion through microcapsules. The obtained results opened a perspective for the future use of microcapsule formulations as new promising agroformulations with a sustained and target release for plant growth regulation.

Synthetic routes to o-carboxyphenyl derivatives of certain heterocyclic compounds, required for testing as plant growth regulators, were investigated. The preparation of 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2- yl)benzoic acid (3), 2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzoic acid (4), 2-(5-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)benzoic acid (5), 2-(3-phenyl- 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)benzoic acid (6), 2-(2-phenylthiazol-4-yl)benzoic acid (7), 2-(3-phenylisoxazol-5-yl)benzoic acid (8), 2-(5- phenylisoxazol-3-yl)benzoic acid (9) and chloro derivatives of (3), (4), (8) and (9) is described.
