Abstract:A series of 1-alkane substituted cyclopropenes has been prepared and tested as ethylene antagonists using banana fruits as an assay system. 1-Methyl-, 1-ethyl-, 1-propyl-, 1-butyl-, 1-pentyl-, 1-hexyl-, 1-heptyl-, 1-octyl-, 1-nonyl-, and 1-decylcyclopropene were all very active compounds. 1-Methylcyclopropene protected bananas from ethylene with a minimum concentration of 0.7 nl.l–1 after a 24 h exposure. As the carbon chain length was extended the minimum requirement increased some, but starting with 1-butylcyclopropene, the minimum concentration requirement declined and many cyclopropenes were required in lower concentrations than 1-methylcyclopropene. The time of protection at ambient temperature (22–23 °C) was 12 d for 1-methyl-, 1-ethyl-, 1-propyl-, and 1-butylcyclopropene. 1-Pentylcyclopropene protected bananas for 14 d, 1-hexylcyclopropene for 20 d, 1-heptylcyclopropene for 21 d, 1-octylcyclopropene for 25 d, 1-nonylcyclopropene for 35 d, and 1-decylcyclopropene for 36 d.
