Novel Brassinosteroid Analogues with 3,6 Dioxo Function, 24-Nor-22(S)-Hydroxy Side Chain and p-Substituted Benzoate Function at C-23—Synthesis and Evaluation of Plant Growth Effects

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are an important group of polyhydroxylated naturally occurring steroidal phytohormones found in the plant kingdom in extremely low amounts. Due to the low concentrations in which these compounds are found, much effort has been dedic
