Thestructuresof alltheintermediatesandtargetcompoundswereconfirmedbyUV-Vis,FTIR,NMR,ESI-MS,and elementalanalysis. Theantifungalactivityofthetargetcompoundswaspreliminarilyevaluated by the invitro method against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum, Physalospora piricola, Alternaria solani, Cercospora arachidicola, Gibberella zeae, Rhizoeotnia solani, Bipolaris maydis, and Colleterichumorbicalareat50µg/mL.Thetargetcompoundsexhibitedbestantifungalactivityagainst P.piricola,inwhichcompounds(Z)-4r(R= β-pyridyl),(Z)-4q(R=α-thienyl),(E)-4f(cid:48) (R=p-FPh), (Z)-4i(R=m-MePh),(Z)-4j(R=p-MePh),and(Z)-4p(R=α-furyl)hadinhibitionratesof97.1%, 87.4%,87.4%,85.0%,81.9%,and77.7%,respectively,showingbetterantifungalactivitythanthatof thecommercialfungicidechlorothanil.

Introduction 3-Carene,anaturallyoccurringbicyclicmonoterpenecontainingacarbon-carbondoublebond andagem-dimethylcyclopropanering,isaconstituentofmanyessentialoilsandturpentineoils[1,2]. Itwasreportedthattheisomericmixtureof3-careneshowedabroadspectrumofactivities,suchas antimicrobial[3–6],anticancer[6],semiochemical[7,8],antioxidant[6,9],andfumigantactivities[10]. Becauseofitsspecialstructureandbioactiveactivities,screeningofstructurallymodified3-carene derivatives for their bioactivity has received considerable attention. For instance, stable, potent, andselectivesphingosine-1-phosphatereceptor1(S1P )agonistsweresuccessivelysynthesizedby 1 using(+)-3-careneasstartingmaterial[11]. Ingenoland(+)-phorbol, twocrucialnaturalproducts withvariousbiologicalactivities,especiallyanticancer,havebeenalsosynthesizedfrominexpensive (+)-3-carene[12–15]. Ontheotherhand,oximeestersasanimportantclassofbioactivecompounds foragrochemicalandpharmaceuticalusewereinvestigatedextensivelybychemists. Itwasreported that oxime esters exhibited insecticidal [16,17], herbicidal [18], antiviral [19], antitumor [20–22], and antibacterial activities [23–25]. For example, a series of 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde oxime esters were synthesized and evaluated for their invitro antifungal activity against three pathogenicfungiandantibacterialactivityagainstthreebacterialstrains,andthestructure-activity Molecules2017,22,1538;doi:10.3390/molecules22091538 www.mdpi.com/journal/molecules MMoolleeccuulleess 22001177,, 2222,, 11553388 22 ooff 1145 was also preliminarily summarized [26]. In continuation of our interest in the bioactive properties of relationshipwasalsopreliminarilysummarized[26]. Incontinuationofourinterestinthebioactive natural product-based compounds [27–33], a series of novel 3-caren-5-one oxime esters were propertiesofnaturalproduct-basedcompounds[27–33],aseriesofnovel3-caren-5-oneoximeesters designed and synthesized by integrating bioactive oxime esters into the skeleton of 3-carene. weredesignedandsynthesizedbyintegratingbioactiveoximeestersintotheskeletonof3-carene. Structural characterization and antifungal evaluation of all the title compounds were carried out as Structuralcharacterizationandantifungalevaluationofallthetitlecompoundswerecarriedoutas well. In addition, Cu(II)HY zeolite was first employed as catalyst in the oxidative preparation of 3- well. In addition, Cu(II)HY zeolite was first employed as catalyst in the oxidative preparation of caren-5-one, and the E-Z stereo-isomers of 3-caren-5-one oxime were also separated for the first time 3-caren-5-one,andtheE-Zstereo-isomersof3-caren-5-oneoximewerealsoseparatedforthefirsttime by column chromatography. bycolumnchromatography. 2.
