Abstract: The condensation of substituted pyrazinecarboxylic acid chlorides with ring substituted anilines yielded nine substituted pyrazinecarboxylic acid amides. The photo-synthesis inhibition activity of a series of pyrazine derivatives was investigated. The synthesis, analytical and biological data of the newly synthesized compounds are presented in this paper. The most active inhibitor of the oxygen evolution rate in spinach chloroplasts was 2-(5-methyl-pyrazine-2-carboxamido)benzoic acid (9, IC50 = 85.0 µmol·L-1).

Keywords: synthesis of pyrazinecarboxamides, photosynthesis inhibiting activity, lipophilicity
