Different substituted benzaldehydes were condensed with 4-phenylthiosemicarbazide to afford respective thiosemicarbazones (4-15). Antifungal activity of the synthesized compounds exhibited that thiosemicarbazides were more effective than thiosemicarbazones against Macrophomina phaseolina and Fusarium moniliforme. All the synthesized compounds registered less activity than bavistin against both fungi at all concentrations.
