Synthesis of some novel 5-substituted benzamido-6-arylamino-pyrazolo[3,4-D]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives for herbicidal activity

Abstract

Sixteen novel 3-methylthio-5-substituted benzamido-6-arylamino-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H)-one derivatives (4a–p) were successfully synthesized from iminophosphoranes, aryl isocyanate, and substituted benzoylhydrazine. The structures of the title compounds were elucidated by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HRMS. Herbicidal activity of the compounds 4a–p against Brassica napus (rape), Echinochloa crusgalli (barnyard grass), Cucumis sativus (cucumber), and Triticum aestivum (wheat) were determined. The results showed that 5-(2-chlorobenzamido)-6-phenylamino-3-methylthio-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H)-one (4c) displayed remarkable inhibition activity against the stalk and root of rape with 100% inhibition rate at the dosages of 10?mg/L and 100?mg/L, and 5-(4-nitrobenzamido)-6-phenylamino-3-methylthio-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4 (5H) -one (4d) exhibited excellent activity against the stalk and root of barnyard grass with 100% inhibition rate at the same dosages.     

The Efficient Synthesis of 3,4-Dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-Ones and Their Sulfur Derivatives with H2SO4 Immobilized on Activated Charcoal

Abstract

Various 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones (DHPMs) and their sulfur derivatives were efficiently synthesized by a one-pot cyclocondensation reaction of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, β-dicarbonyl compounds and urea (or thiourea) in the presence of sulfuric acid immobilized on activated charcoal (133% w/w). The reactions were carried out in refluxing n-hexane-acetonitrile (2.5:0.5 mL) within 5–150 min to give 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones (or thiones) in high to excellent yields (81–97%).     

Complexation and Transport of Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metal Cations by p-tert-Butyldihomooxacalix[4]arene Tetraketone Derivatives

The binding properties of three p-tert-butyldihomooxacalix[4]arene tetraketone derivatives (tert-butyl 2b, adamantyl 2c and phenyl 2d) in the cone conformation and one derivative (methyl 2a) in a partial cone conformation, towards alkali and alkaline earth metal cations have been established by extraction studies of metal picrates from water into dichloromethane, stability constant measurements in methanol and acetonitrile, and by ¹H NMR spectrometry. Transport experiments of metal picrates through a dichloromethane membrane were also performed. The results are compared to those obtained with closely-related calix[n]arene derivatives (n = 4 and 5) and discussed in terms of the substituents, size and conformational effects. Methylketone 2a is a poor binder for all the cations studied, due to its partial cone conformation. Ketones 2b, 2c and 2d show high extraction and complexation levels for the alkali cations, with similar profiles and preference for K⁺ and Na⁺ (plateau selectivity). Towards alkaline earth cations, these ketones show a strong peak selectivity for Ba²⁺ in extraction, but a plateau selectivity for Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ in complexation. The nature of the substituent attached to the ketone function has some influence on their binding properties, with phenylketone 2d being a slightly weaker binder than ketones 2b and 2c. ¹H NMR titrations confirm the formation of 1:1 complexes between the ketones and the cations studied, also indicating that they should be located inside the cavity defined by the phenoxy and carbonyl oxygen atoms. Ketones 2b, 2c and 2d show transport rates that do not follow, in general, the same trends observed in extraction and complexation.     

Intermolecular interactions of formic acid with benzene: Energy decomposition analyses with ab initio MP2 and double‐hybrid density functional computations

The intermolecular interactions of formic acid (HCOOH) with benzene (C₆H₆) have been investigated using localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analyses (LMO‐EDA) with ab initio MP2 and several double‐hybrid density functionals. The molecular geometries of five HCOOH…C₆H₆ complexes and corresponding benchmark total interaction energies at the CCSD(T)/CBS level are taken from literature (Zhao et al., J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2009, 5, 2726). According to the results of LMO‐EDA with the MP2 method, the dispersion energies are found to be as important as the electrostatic energies for the total interaction energies of the five HCOOH…C₆H₆ complexes. Based on LMO‐EDA with the double‐hybrid density functionals of B2PLYP, B2K‐PLYP, B2T‐PLYP, and B2GP‐PLYP computations, two new parameters for the framework of B2PLYP are extrapolated. These two new parameters are tested with other 10 complexes involving C₆H₆ (Crittenden, J. Phys. Chem. A 2009, 113, 1663), and they perform well on predicting the corresponding total interaction energies. Interestingly, these two new parameters for the framework of B2PLYP also perform well on the noncovalent complexation energies database (NCCE31/05) developed by Truhlar's group (Zhao and Truhlar, J. Phys. Chem. A 2005, 109, 5656). Therefore, these two new parameters appear to be suitable for investigating the noncovalent interactions, and they are denoted as B2N‐PLYP, where N stands for the noncovalent interaction. This study is expected to provide new insight into the derivation of double‐hybrid density functionals for studying the noncovalent interactions. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An atom-economic route to densely functionalized thiophenes has been developed via base-catalyzed rearrangement of 5-propargyl-2H-thiopyran-4(3H)-ones involving tandem retro-thio Michael addition, propargyl isomerization, and intramolecular thio-addition to allenes.     

Lanthanide Triflate Catalyzed One-Pot Synthesis of Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-thiones by a Three-Component of 1,3-Dicarbonyl Compounds,Aldehydes, and Thiourea Using a Solvent-Free Biginelli Condensation

Abstract

Novel one-pot Biginelli-type reaction has been developed. Aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes with β-dicarbonyl compounds and thiourea in the presence of catalytic amount 5 mol% of Yb(OTf)₃ at 100° C for 60–90 min under solvent-free conditions proceeded smoothly to afford corresponding dihydropyrimidin-thiones. The yields of the classical Biginelli reaction can be increased from 20–50% to 81–91% while the reaction time was shortened from 18–48 h to 60–90 min. In addition the catalyst can be easily recovered and reused.

Oxidative Conversion of 3‐Alkoxyfurans to 2‐Hydroxy‐3(2H)‐furanones and 2‐Hydroxy‐2‐butene‐1,4‐diones with 2,3‐Dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐1,4‐benzoquinone (DDQ) or Phenyltrimethylammonium Tribromide (PTAB) in t‐BuOH

2‐Alkoxy‐1,3,4‐triphenylfurans were oxidized to 3‐alkoxy‐2,4,5‐triphenyl‐ 2‐butene‐1,4‐diones with 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐1,4‐benzoquinone (DDQ) in t‐BuOH. In contrast, various 3‐alkoxy‐2,4,5‐triphenylfurans were directly converted to 2‐hydroxy‐3(2H)‐furanone with phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide (PTAB) in t‐BuOH. The oxidative ring opening of 3‐alkoxy‐2,5‐diphenylfurans to cis‐2‐hydroxy‐2‐butene‐1,4‐dione was also accomplished with PTAB in t‐BuOH under the same reaction conditions.
