Generel formular of alylbenzylamino Picture: WO 2009/043320 A2 Background
Cytokinins are plant hormones involved in cell division, shoot meristem and leaf formation, chloroplast biogenesis, and senescence. The development of agonists and antagonists with a particular physiological effect is useful in mechanism-of-action studies of biologically active natural products. The potent naturally occurring cytokinin N6-isopentenyladenine served as the basis for initial structure-activity studies.

Technology
We offer substituted 6-(alkylbenzylamino)-purin derivatives as cytokinin receptor antagonists to provide cytokinin analogons for growth regulation in plants and to offer the possibility for a specific selectivity for cytokinin receptors without being toxic for animal cells. The derivatives can be used to influence morphology, leading to:
  • Increased root growth, fruit or grain size
  • Stimulation of root branching and enhanced number of lateral roots
  • Accelerated seed germination
  • Enhanced yield and quality of crops
