Design,synthesis and insecticidal activities of novel 1-substituted-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives

A series of novel 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives(6a–6n, 7a, 7b, and 8a-8f)were synthesised by placing the amide bond at the 4-position of the pyrazole ring. These derivatives differed from the structure of chlorantraniliprole analogues with the amide bond at the 5-position of the pyrazole ring. Preliminary bioassay results revealed that a few title compounds exhibited good insecticidal activities against lepidopteran pests, such as Plutella xylostella, Mythimna separate, Heliothis armigera, and Ostrinia nubilalis. Some title compounds also elicited broad-spectrum insecticidal activities against dipterous insects including Culex pipiens pallens after altering the amide position. Similar to pyrazole-5-carboxamide analogues, compounds 6b and 6e showed 100% insecticidal activity against P. xylostella, C. pipiens pallens, and M. separate at concentrations of 200, 2, and 200 mg/m L, respectively.This finding suggested that 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives are potential alternative insecticides for management of agriculture pests.     

An efficient 2-(1H-benzotriazole-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TBTU)-mediated synthesis of 5-(trifluoromethyl)-N-alkyl-1-(3-phenylisoquinoline-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides

A series of 5-(trifluoromethyl)-N-alkyl-1-(3-phenylisoquinoline-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides 4 has been effectively achieved in high yield and purity from the reaction of pyrazole carboxylic acid 2 with amines 3 in the presence of TBTU as a catalyst and diisopropyl ethylamine as a base in acetonitrile at room temperature.     

Combinatorial solution-phase synthesis of (2S,4S)-4-acylamino-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxamides

Solution-phase combinatorial synthesis of (2S,4S)-4-acylamino-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxamides was studied. First, di-tert-butyl (2S,4S)-4-amino-5-oxopyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxylate hydrochloride was prepared as the key intermediate in five steps from (S)-pyroglutamic acid. Acylation of the amino group followed by acidolytic deprotection gave (2S,4S)-4-acylamino-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acids, which were then coupled with amines to furnish a library of (2S,4S)-4-acylamino-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxamides. Four coupling reagents, BPC, EEDQ, TBTU, and PFTU, were tested for the amidation reactions in the final step. Amidations with EEDQ and TBTU led to the desired carboxamides. On the other hand, BPC and PFTU were not suited, since diketopiperazines were sometimes obtained instead of the desired carboxamides.

An aqueous,catalyst-free and three-component synthesis of 6-amino-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,4-dihydro-1-phenyl-4-arylpyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carbonitriles

A concise synthesis of 6-amino-4-aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,4-dihydro-1-phenylpyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carbonitriles was performed effectively in aqueous media without catalyst by the reaction of aryl aldehydes, malononitrile, and 1-phenyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one. This method has the advantages of mild condition, avoidance of the use of catalysts, high yields, and environmentally benign procedure.     

A synthesis of 1-substituted 5-[2-(acylamino)ethyl]-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides

A seven-step synthesis of 1-substituted 5-(2-acylaminoethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides 20 as the pyrazole analogues of histamine was developed. The synthesis starts with a three-step preparation of N(1)-substituted methyl 5-(2-tert-butoxycarbonylaminoethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates 7 from commercially available Boc-β-alanine (1). Subsequent four-step transformation of the key-intermediates 7 into the final products 20 was performed following two complementary reaction sequences comprising acidolytic removal of the Boc group, hydrolysis of the COOMe group, amidations of the COOH group, and acylations of the NH₂ group. The structures of pyrazole derivatives were determined by spectroscopic methods and by X-ray diffraction.     

Synthesis of 2-(4-carboxybutenyl)- and 2-(4-carboxybutynyl)-cyclopentene-1-carboxamides

Syntheses of 2-(4-carboxybut-1-enyl/4-carboxypent-1-ynyl)cyclopentene-1-carboxamides, compounds designed to mimic the phosphoSer-Pro dipeptide motif (the recognition sequence for the prolyl cis-trans isomerase Pin1), have been developed. Stille, Sonogashira and Suzuki couplings were envisaged to join the pentynoic and pentenoic acid side chains to the 2-position of cyclopentene-1-carboxylate esters. The ring- and side-chain carboxylic acids required orthogonal protection for later attachment of a Ph-NH(4-nitrophenyl) unit to the cyclopentene-1-carbonyl. The cyclopentenecarboxylates were unmasked and standard PyBOP peptide coupling afforded the target compounds. Comparisons of two routes using Bu^t and Me esters are reported.

In 1-(1-naphthyl)-substituted pyrrolones atropoisomerism was observed.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 2, 2005, pp. 266–269.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Resnyanskaya, Tverdokhlebov, Tolmachev, Volovenko.     

Microwave-assisted synthesis and biological evaluation of pyrazole-4-carbonitriles as antimicrobial agents

An efficient microwave-assisted method of synthesis of pyrazole-4-carbonitriles has been developed. Condensation of pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes with hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by reaction of the resulting oximes with the Vilsmeier-Haack reagent pre-formed from phthaloyl dichloride and dimethylformamide under microwave irradiation afforded the corresponding pyrazole-4-carbonitriles in 73% to 91% yield. The operational simplicity, avoidance of toxic reagents such as POCl₃, shorter reaction time, higher yield compared to the classical version, easy work up, and the use of the by-product in the regeneration of phthaloyl dichloride are the advantages of this methodology. All the target compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus; Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Yersinia enterocolitica, and the fungal species Candida albicans.

In addition, MTT assay was accomplished on the active analogues of the series against mouse macrophage (RAW 264.7) cells to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of the newly synthesized compounds and selectivity index of the compounds was determined.     

A novel synthetic approach towards pyrazole-4-carboxamides using N-(3-(dimethylamino)-2-formylacryloyl)formamide

Abstract  

A novel synthesis of pyrazole-4-carboxamides is reported. The reaction of N-(3-(dimethylamino)-2-formylacryloyl)formamide, an intermediate obtained by Vilsmeier–Haack formylation of acetonitrile, with hydrazine hydrate or monosubstituted hydrazines provides such compounds in good yields. This method has advantages over other methods for construction of such ring systems previously described in the literature.

4-Hydroxy-1(2H)-isoquinolone-3-carboxamides synthesis and properties

Reaction of some α-phthalimidoacetamides 1a-i with sodium ethoxide was carried out under drastic conditions. Compounds 1b-g afforded 4-hydroxy-1(2H)-isoquinolone-3-carboxamides 2b-g , while 1h-i afforded the acid 3a-b together with the expected isoquinolones 2h-i. Compound 1a gave phthalimide as the major product. Compounds 2 are acidic and unstable in basic media. The most acidic compounds presented the longest half-life. An explanation of these results was given.     

One step synthesis of 3-cyano-4-(5-nitrobenzothienyl)pyridines and 3-Cyano-4-(5-nitrobenzothienyl)pyridin-2-ones for biological evaluation

A new one-vessel reaction has been developed for the synthesis of substituted aminocyanopyridines 2 and cyanopyridin-2-ones 3. Compounds 2a-c and 3a-c were readily obtained by heating molar amounts of 5-nitro-benzothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde 1 , the appropriate acetyl derivative and the active methylene compound (malononitrile or ethyl cyanoacetate) in presence of ammonium acetate. The new method had the advantage of being quick, economic and of general application. A possible mechanism for the reaction, has been suggested.
