    Abstract:
    The limited number of agrochemicals targeting plant bacterial diseases has driven us to develop highly efficient, low-cost, and versatile antibacterial alternatives. Herein, a novel type of simple furan-functionalized quinazolin-4-amines was systematically fabricated and screened for their antibacterial activity. Bioassay results revealed that compounds C1 and E4 could substantially block the growth of two frequently mentioned pathogens Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae and X. axonopodis pv citri in vitro, displaying appreciable EC50 values of 7.13 and 10.3 mg/L, respectively. This effect was prominently improved by comparing those of mainly used agrochemicals. An in vivo experiment against bacterial blight further illustrated their viable applications as antimicrobial ingredients. Quantitative proteomics demonstrated that C1 possessed a remarkable ability to manipulate the upregulation and downregulation of expressed proteins, which probably involved d-glucose and biotin metabolic pathways. This finding was substantially verified by parallel reaction monitoring analysis. Scanning electron microscopy images and fluorescence spectra also indicated that the designed compounds had versatile capacities for destroying the integrity of bacteria. Given these remarkable characteristics, furan-functionalized quinazoline hybrids can serve as a viable platform for developing innovative antibiotic alternatives against bacterial infections.
