Prunetin (2) and its derivatives were synthesized in order to study the relationship between structure and attracting activity to Aphanomyces euteiches zoospore.All of the derivatives (1, 2, 4 and 6), which had a hydroxyl group at the C-5 position in the isoflavone, showed attracting activity, but the methyl ether derivatives (3, 5, 7 and 8) do not have or have very weak attracting activity.The isoflavones (1, 2, and 4) with strong attracting activity also had estrogenic activity.Keywords - isoflavone; prunetin; genistein; biochanin A; 5-methylgenistein; 5-hydroxy-4',7-dimethoxyisoflavone; Aphanomyces euteiches; zoospore; attracting activity; estrogenic activity
