New Chiral Kemp's Acid Diamides for Chiral Amine Recognition by 1 H NMR

Two Kemp's acid diamides were synthesized and applied to chiral amine recognition using ¹H NMR analysis. One derivative based on 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine had good chiral recognition of six amines and was useful to determine the optical purity for three amines, i.e., methylbenzylamine, 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine and 1- henylpropylamine,however, the cyclohexylethylamine derivative showed little discrimination for the amines studied. Together with the results for alkylamines, it was shown that aromatic structure was important for aromatic shielding anisotropy and –– interactions between host and guest. The structure of the 1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine derivative in solution was also considered based on ¹H NMR data and computer simulation.     

Sulfonimidamides and Imidosulfuric Diamides: Compounds from an Underexplored Part of Biologically Relevant Chemical Space

Two novel solid reagents—1-sulfonimidoyl- and 1-sulfamimidoyl-3-methylimidazolium derivatives—for the synthesis of sulfonimidamides and imidosulfuric diamides, respectively, were developed. It is shown that these reagents are very effective in substitution reactions with various N- and O-nucleophiles; therefore, they significantly extend the accessibility to the chemical space covered by organosulfur(VI) compounds with S=N bonds. In addition, previously unknown imidosulfuric diamides with free imino nitrogen groups were prepared, and their physical and chemical properties were characterized (including molecular geometry, pK_a, Log P, microsomal stability, and reactivity towards typical electrophiles). Similar to other organosulfur(VI) derivatives with S=N bonds, these compounds can be considered as promising bioisosteres of amides, ureas, or sulfonamides.     

Synthesis and pesticidal activities of novel anthranilic diamides containing pyridylpyrazole and iminodithiocarbamate or thiosemicarbazone motifs

Abstract

A series of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives containing pyridylpyrazole and iminodithiocarbamate or thiosemicarbazone motifs were synthesized via multi-step reactions. The structures of seven title compounds (methyl 2-(2-(3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamido)-5-chloro-3- methylbenzylidene)hydrazinecarbodithioate 7 and 3-bromo-N-(2-((2-substitutedcarbamothioylhydrazono)methyl)-4-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamide 8a-8f) were confirmed by melting points, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HRMS. The bioassays showed that some of the compounds exhibited modest insecticidal activities against oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata Walker), particularly, compound 8b (3-bromo-N-(4-chloro-2-methyl-6-((2-(methylcarbamothioyl)hydrazono)methyl)phenyl)-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamide) held 100% and 30% larvicidal activity at the concentration of 25?mg/L and 10?mg/L, respectively. In addition, several compounds displayed favorable fungicidal activities against Alternaria solani Sorauer and Physalospora piricola at 50?μg/mL, and were comparable with the controls Chlorothalonil and Triadimefon. The results in this paper will provide important information for further research and development of sulfur-containing heterocyclic agrochemicals.     

Design, synthesis and insecticidal activity of novel anthranilic diamides with benzyl sulfide scaffold

A series of novel anthranilic diamides with benzyl sulfide scaffold were synthesized,in which N-pyridylpyrazole moiety generally regarded as key pharmacophore was abandoned.The target compounds were characterized by ¹H NMR,¹³C NMR,¹⁹F NMR and HRMS.The preliminary bioassays indicated that half of the title compounds were endowed with good insecticidal activities against armyworm（Mythimna sepatara） at the concentration of 500 mg/L,Exhilaratingly,the synthesized compound 3a was also active against Tetranychus cinnabarinus at 100 mg/L.The difference in activities between the target compounds was influenced by the substituents,which provided some hints for further investigation on structure modifications.     

A convenient palladium catalyzed synthesis of symmetric biaryls, biheterocycles and biaryl chiral diamides

A series of symmetrical diamido biaryls has been synthesized in good yield by direct homocoupling of iodoarylbenzamides by palladium-catalysis. No cross product has been isolated from the reaction mixture of two different iodoarylbenzamides under similar conditions. However, only in the case of 2-iodo-N-phenylbenzamide, the intramolecularly coupled product phenanthridone has been isolated as a minor product along with the major intermolecularly coupled product. Biphenyl chiral diamides have been synthesized by this coupling method. This coupling reaction also works well with the reductive dimerization of functionalized heterocyclic compounds. Thus 6,6′-dipivaloylamino-3,3′-bipyridine and 6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine have been efficiently synthesized. In two cases, the X-ray crystal structures have been solved to establish the structures of symmetrical and chiral diamido biaryls and their supramolecular networks.

Abstract

The reaction between N,N′‐bis(salicylidene)diamines and carbon suboxide afforded dicoumarinoyl diamides in only one step and in yields that strictly depend on the methylene linkers between the salicylic moieties.

Synthesis and Insecticidal Evaluation of Novel Anthranilic Diamides Derivatives Containing 4‐Chlorine Substituted N‐Pyridylpyrazole

To search for potent insecticides targeting at ryanodine receptors (RyRs), a series of novel anthranilic diamides analogs containing 4‐chlorine N‐pyridylpyrazole were designed and synthesized. Their insecticidal activities were evaluated and the preliminary structure‐activity relationships (SARs) were discussed. The insecticidal results showed that some of the compounds (8a—8h, 8m, 8n) exhibited good larvicidal activities against oriental armyworm at 2.5 mg·L^–1, and compound 8m possessed 60% insecticidal activity at 0.5 mg·L^–1. For diamondback moth, 8m exhibited better activity than Chlorantraniliprole at a hundred fold preference. The calcium imaging technique experiment results suggested that compound 8m could increase the intracellular [Ca²⁺]_i. With the neurons preincubated experiment, the results confirmed that the target of this series of compounds could be RyRs in the central larvae neurons of oriental armyworm. The results indicated that compound 8m could respond as a potential modulator of the insect ryanodine receptor.     

Design,synthesis and insecticidal activities of novel anthranilic diamides containing fluorinated groups as potential ryanodine receptors activitors

In order to search for novel potent and environmentally benign insecticides, a series of anthranilic diamides containing various fluorinated groups were designed and synthesized. Their structures were confirmed by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹⁹F NMR, elemental analysis, HRMS or mass spectra. Their insecticidal activities against oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) were evaluated. The preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) was discussed in detail. The biological assay indicated that most of the compounds exhibited moderate to excellent insecticidal activities. Especially, Ia showed high larvicidal activity against oriental armyworm. Meanwhile, Iu had better larvicidal effects against diamondback moth than commercial chlorantraniliprole.
