Synthesis and fungicidal activity of novel 1,2,4-triazole derivatives containing a pyrimidine moiety

Abstract

A series of novel 1,2,4-triazole derivatives containing a pyrimidine moiety were synthesized and their fungicidal activities were evaluated. The preliminary biological test indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited moderate to good fungicidal activities against the tested plant pathogenic fungi compared with the commercial agent. Among them, compounds 9n and 9o exhibited excellent antifungal activity against Phompsis sp., with the half-maximal effective concentration (EC₅₀) values of 25.4 and 31.6?μg/mL, which were even better than the commercial agent of Pyrimethanil (32.1?μg/mL). Meanwhile, compound 9o showed better fungicidal activities against B. dothidea and B. cinerea with 40.1 and 55.1?μg/mL, respectively, in comparison with that of commercial Pyrimethanil (57.6 and 62.8?μg/mL).     

Synthesis of new thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine derivatives of pharmaceutical interest

2H-5-Amino-6-cyano-3,7-dioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine was subjected to ring formation affording thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine derivatives. 2H-5-Amino-6-cyano-3,7-dioxo-2-phenylmethylenethiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine was also subjected to ring formation affording pyrimido[4,5-d]-, pyrano[2,3-d]-, and pyrido[2,3-d]thiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimidine derivatives. 2-Anilinothiocarbonyl-3,9-dioxo-8-imino-7-phenyl-6-thioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine and 8-amino-3,9-dioxo-6-thioxothiazolo[2,3-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine reacted with α-haloactive-methylene compounds to afford heterocyclic compounds containing two, fused and isolated, thiazole moieties, respectively.     

Synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives via multicomponent reaction catalyzed by ferric chloride

An eco-friendly and practical approach was developed for the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives via a one-pot, three-component coupling reaction of commercially available aldehydes, alkynes, and indazole3/triazole catalyzed by ferric chloride with good to excellent yields. The advantages of this method include environmentally friendly catalyst, easily available materials, and ease of product isolation.     

Use of 3-(2'-formyl-l'-chlorovinyl)coumarin in the syntheses of pyrazol, salicylaldazine and pyrimidine derivatives

3-(Pyrazol-5'-yl)coumarin (3) was prepared from condensation of 3-(2'-formyl-1'-chlorovinyl)-coumarin (1) with hydrazine hydrate at room temperature, followed by cyclization with base. Salicylaldazine was prepared from methoxylation of 1 to give acetal 7, followed by condensation of 7 with hydrazine hydrate at 80℃. Treatment of acetal 7 with thiourea yielded the corresponding 4-substituted-2-thioxo-2H-pyrimidine [ 3, 4-b]-coumarin (12).     

Effects of coumarin substituents on the photophysical properties of newly synthesised phthalocyanine derivatives

In this study, synthesis of new ligands, 8-hydroxy-3-[p-(3′,4′-dicyanophenoxy)-phenyl]coumarin and 8-hexyloxy-3-[p-(3′,4′-dicyanophenoxy)-phenyl]coumarin, and their phthalocyanines, 2,9,16,23-tetrakis[8-hexyloxy-3-(4-oxyphenyl)coumarin]-metal-free and metallophthalocyanines {M[Pc(OBzCou)₄] (M = 2H, Zn(II), Co(II); Bz: benzene; Cou: coumarin)} were synthesised. The novel chromogenic compounds were characterised by elemental analysis: ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, MALDI-TOF, IR and UV–vis spectral data. The effect of coumarin substituents on the photophysical properties of metal-free (H₂Pc) and zinc phthalocyanines (ZnPc) derivatives has been examined. Spectrophotometric measurements revealed that coumarin-substituted ZnPc derivatives were in the unaggregated form, whereas those of H₂Pc species were in aggregated form. It means that substitution of coumarin derivative prevents the cluster formation in the presence of zinc ion in the centre of Pc.

3–(Pyrazol-5-yl)coumarin (3) was prepared from condensation of 3–(2′-formyl-l-chlorovinyl)-coumarin (1) with hydrazine hydrate at room temperature, followed by cyclyzation with base. Salicylaldazine was prepared from methoxylation of 1 to give acetal 7 , followed by condensation of 7 with hydrazine hydrate at 80°C: Treatment of acetal 7 with thiourea yielded the corresponding 4-substituted-2-thioxo-2H-pyrimidine[3, 4-b]-coumarin (12).

Novel pyrimidine and its triazole fused derivatives: Synthesis and investigation of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity

In the present study, we have carried out the synthesis of novel dihydropyrimidinecarbonitrile (1a–c), its dimethylated adduct (2a–c), and hydrazine derivative (3a–c) of 2a–c and its triazole fused derivatives (4a–c, 5a–c and 6a–c). The structure of newly synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, mass spectral data and elemental analysis. Further the novel derivatives were investigated for their in vitro antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. The results revealed that some of the tested compounds showed potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. The mass spectral pattern of 6a has been investigated in order to elucidate the structure.     

Synthesis of some new pyrimidine selanyl derivatives

The targeted synthesis of 2-(methylsulfanyl)-6-(furan-2-yl)-4(3H)-selenoxo -pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile failed due to the formation 1-methyl-2-methylsulfanyl-6-oxo -4-(furan-2-yl)-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile. A new series of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzo thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-yl substituted selanyl derivatives were prepared by the reaction of sodium diselenide with 4-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine followed by the reaction with chloroacetic acid derivatives such as ethyl chloroacetate, chloroacetamide or chloroacetonitrile. Hydrazinolysis of ethyl (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 4-ylselanyl)acetate with hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding hydrazino derivative. The latter reacted with ethyl acetoacetate, acetylacetone, diethyl malonate, ethoxymethylenemalononitrile or ethyl 2-cyano-3-ethoxyacetate to afford 5-methyl-2-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno [2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazol-3-one, 1-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-2- (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)ethanone, 1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro -1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-2,4-dihydropyrazolidine-3,5-dione and 5-Amino-1-[2-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylselanyl)acetyl]-1H-pyrazol -4-yl substituted carbonitrile or ethyl carboxylate, respectively. The structure of the novel compounds was confirmed by spectroscopic tools (IR, ¹H NMR ¹³C NMR and mass spectra) and elemental analysis.     

Trisubstituted pyrimidine derivatives from tetrafluoropyrimidine

The use of tetrafluoropyrimidine as a scaffold for the synthesis of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyrimidine derivatives by three sequential nucleophilic aromatic substitution processes is assessed. Reactions of tetrafluoropyrimidine with various amine nucleophiles followed by a series of nitrogen and oxygen centred nucleophilic species gave a range of 4,6-disubstituted-2,5-difluoropyrimidine systems regioselectively and in good yield. Displacement of a further fluorine atom from representative difluoropyrimidine derivatives proceeded to give trisubstituted pyrimidine derivatives although mixtures of products could be obtained depending upon the substrate.     

Convenient synthesis of 2-(methylsulfonyl)pyrimidine derivatives

An efficient and convenient approach for the preparation of functionalized 2-(methylsulfonyl)pyrimidine derivatives has been developed through cyclic condensation of malonate derivatives with S-methylisothiouronium sulfate followed by derivation and oxidation in water–acetone mixture using oxone as the oxidant. This synthetic strategy provides an efficient and environmentally friendly approach for easy access to 2-(methylsulfonyl)pyrimidine derivatives with considerable yields.     

New strategies for the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives

Recent advances in pyrimidine synthesis are described.

In vitro antischistosomal evaluation of some newly synthesized praziquantel derivatives

Praziquantel, 2-(cyclohexylcarbonyl)-1,2,3,6,7,11b-hexahydro-4H-pyrazino[2,1-a]isoquinolin-4-one, was used as the parent starting material to synthesize a new series of praziquantel-3-arylidene derivatives 1a–c and praziquantel–Mannich bases 2a–d, hoping to obtain new antischistosomal compounds of more activity and lower adverse effects. The antischistosomal activity of the newly synthesized compounds was evaluated using in vitro Schistosoma mansoni worm killing tests. Both compounds 2c and 2d exhibited significant in vitro antischistosomal activity and may offer promising use as an antischistosomal drug either alone or in combination with praziquantel.
