Nine new aryloxyacetyl thioureas (3a-3i) have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiodiazole with aryloxyacetyl isothiocyanates. Their structure were confirmed by IR, 1 H NMR and elemental analysis. The preliminary biological activity tests show that some target compounds have a good activity as plant growth regulator, and 3b, 3c, 3e, 3i have excellent auxin activity, 3d, 3e have better cytokinin activity. The result maker clear that trifluoromet...
