RESUMO
A novel and efficient base-catalyzed, transition-metal-free method for the synthesis of diheterocyclic compounds connected by an amidine linker, including apart from the common 1,2,3-triazole ring, either an additional pyrimidinedione, 4-nitroimidazole, isoxazole, 1,3,4-triazole, 2-oxochromone or thiazole ring, has been developed. The process was facilitated by a strong base and includes the cycloaddition reaction of 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles (2-cyanoacetamidines) to heterocyclic azides followed by a Cornforth-type rearrangement to the final products. The reaction is tolerant to various N-monosubstituted 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles and to different heterocyclic azides. The developed method has a broad scope and can be applied to obtain a variety of N-heteroaryl-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbimidamides with alkyl, allyl, propargyl, benzyl, cycloalkyl, and indolyl substituents at the N1 position .
RESUMO
It was shown that the reaction of 2-cyanothioacetamides with hydrazine involves both cyano- and thioamide groups, and 3,5-diaminopyrazoles are formed. In the reaction of 2-cyano-3-(dimethylamino)-N,N-dimethylprop-2-enethioamides with hydrazine and its derivatives, the interaction proceeds with the participation of cyano- and enamine groups, not affecting the thiocarbamoyl group, and leads to the formation of 4-thiocarbamoylpyrazoles. A synthesis method has been developed and a series of 1-substituted-4-thiocarbamoyl pyrazoles has been thus synthesized. The structure of the reaction products was studied using NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry and confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.
RESUMO
An efficient base-catalyzed, metal-free method for the synthesis of 5-amino-1,2,3-triazole-4-N-sulfonyl- and arylimidamides, directed by the structure of the amidine group, has been developed. It is based on a previously unknown tandem process involving cycloaddition reaction to 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles (2-cyanoacetamidines) with aryl(alkyl)sulfonyl or aryl azides and Cornforth-type rearrangement. During the reaction optimization, different factors were found to facilitate the title reaction, which include the use of a strong base and N-mono- or N,N'-disubstituted 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles. The reaction is tolerant to variously N-monosubstituted and N,N'-disubstituted 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles and to various aryl- and aryl/alkyl sulfonyl azides. The developed method has a broad scope and can be applied to obtain a variety of 5-amino-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbimidamides bearing at the N1 position alkyl, allyl, propargyl, benzyl, cycloalkyl, and heteroaryl substituents and sulfonyl and aryl substituents at the amidine group. Post-cyclization reactions of prepared 5-amino-1,2,3-triazoles with DMF-DMA DMA-DMF leads to 1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidines, 8-aza purine analogues demonstrating the applicability of the prepared compounds in organic synthesis.

The reaction of 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles with DMAD and 1,2-dibenzoylacetylene was studied. It is shown that the direction of the reaction depends on the structure both of acetylene and of diaminoacrylonitrile. In the reaction of DMAD with acrylonitriles bearing a monosubstituted amidine group, 1-substituted 5-amino-2-oxo-pyrrole-3(2H)ylidenes are formed. On the other hand, a similar reaction of acrylonitriles containing the N,N-dialkylamidine group affords 1-NH-5-aminopyrroles. In both cases, pyrroles containing two exocyclic double bonds are formed in high yields. A radically different type of pyrroles containing one exocyclic C=C bond and sp3 hybrid carbon in the cycle is formed in reactions of 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles with 1,2-diaroylacetylenes. As in reactions with DMAD, the interaction of 3,3-diaminoacrylonitriles with 1,2-dibenzoylacetylene can lead, depending on the structure of the amidine fragment, both to NH- and 1-substituted pyrroles. The formation of the obtained pyrrole derivatives is explained by the proposed mechanisms of the studied reactions.
RESUMO
A large variety of 1,2,3-thiadiazoles and 1,2,3-triazoles are used extensively in modern pure and applied organic chemistry as important structural blocks of numerous valuable products. Creation of new methods of synthesis of these isomeric compounds requires the development of reliable analytical tools to reveal the structural characteristics of these novel compounds, which are able to distinguish between isomers. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a clear choice for this task due to its selectivity, sensitivity, informational capacity, and reliability. Here, the application of electrospray ionization (ESI) with ion detection in positive and negative modes was demonstrated to be useful in structural studies. Additionally, interconversion of isomeric 4,5-functionalized 1,2,3-triazoles and 1,2,3-thiadiazoles was demonstrated. Application of accurate mass measurements and tandem mass spectrometry in MS2 and MS3 modes indicated the occurrence of gas-phase rearrangement of 1,2,3-triazoles into 1,2,3-thiadiazoles under (+)ESI-MS/MS conditions, independent of the nature of substituents, in line with the reaction in the condensed phase. Infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy enabled the establishment of structures of some of the most crucial common fragment ions, including [M+H-N2]+ and [M+H-N2-RSO2]+ species. The (-)ESI-MS/MS experiments were significantly more informative for the sulfonyl alkyl derivatives compared to the sulfonyl aryl ones. However, there was insufficient evidence to confirm the solution-phase transformation of 1,2,3-thiadiazoles into the corresponding 1,2,3-triazoles.
RESUMO
Lead discovery and molecular target identification are important for developing novel pesticides. Scaffold hopping, an effective approach of modern medicinal and agrochemical chemistry for a rational design of target molecules, is aiming to design novel molecules with similar structures and similar/better biological performance. Herein, 24 new ferimzone derivatives were designed and synthesized by a scaffold-hopping strategy. In vitro bioassays indicated that compound 5o showed similar potency to ferimzone against Cercospora arachidicola and 2-fold higher potency than ferimzone against Alternaria solani. Compounds 5q, 6a, and 6d displayed fungicidal activity with EC50 values ranging from 1.17 to 3.84 µg/mL against Rhizoctonia solani, and compounds 5q and 6a displayed 1.6-1.8-fold higher activity than ferimzone against Fusarium graminearum. The in vivo bioassays at 200 µg/mL indicated that compound 5q was more potent than ferimzone against Pyricularia oryzae (90% vs 70% efficacy, respectively). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations elucidated the structure-energy relationship. Although the mode of action of ferimzone is still unclear, studies suggested that compound 5q significantly inhibited the growth and reproduction of R. solani, and its energy metabolism pathways (e.g., starch, sucrose, lipids, and glutathione) were seriously downregulated after a 5q treatment.

The addition of active groups of known fungicides, or systemic acquired resistance inducers, into novel compound molecules to search for potential antifungal compounds is a popular and effective strategy. In this work, a new series of N-acyl-N-arylalanines was developed and synthesized, in which 1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-ylcarbonyl or 3,4-dichloroisothiazol-5-ylcarbonyl (fragments from synthetic plant resistance activators tiadinil and isotianil, respectively) and a fragment of N-arylalanine, the toxophoric group of acylalanine fungicides. Several new synthesized compounds have shown moderate antifungal activity against fungi in vitro, such as B. cinerea, R. solani and S. sclerotiorum. In vivo tests against A. brassicicola showed that compound 1d was 92% effective at a concentration of 200 µg/mL, similar to level of tiadinil, a known inducer of systemic resistance. Thus, 1d could be considered a new candidate fungicide for further detailed study. The present results will advance research and influence the search for more promising fungicides for disease control in agriculture.

The reactivity of readily available 4,5-fused-1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles was examined in the Rh(II)-catalyzed transannulation reaction with nitriles. We have come across the interesting observation that 1-sulfonyl cycloalkeno[d][1,2,3]triazoles that possess ß-hydrogens resist intramolecular ß-hydride migration and could serve as a new source of Rh-iminocarbenoids for intermolecular Rh(II)-catalyzed transannulation reactions. As a result, 1-sulfonyl cyclohexeno-, cyclohepteno-, dihydropyrano-, 5-phenyltetrahydrobenzo-, and 4,5-dihydronaphtho[d]imidazoles were synthesized from various nitriles in good yields. A one-pot methodology has also been executed for the synthesis of NH-imidazoles.

A novel carbenoid-mediated approach to thioisomünchnones was developed by intermolecular copper-catalyzed reactions of diazoacetamides with aromatic and heteroaromatic thioamides bearing a pyrrolidine moiety. The direction of the reaction can be switched toward 2-amino-2-heteroarylacrylamides by replacing the pyrrolidine with an aniline group or by the use of 2-cyano-2-diazoacetamides. The proposed mechanism and DFT calculations allowed us to rationalize the effect of substituents on the reaction direction. Effective methods were found for the synthesis of previously unknown both 2-heteroarylthioisomünchones and 2-heteroarylacrylamides, based on a wide scope of available reagents with a similar structure. Some of the synthesized thioisomünchnones exhibited multicolor fluorescence in the solid state and solutions.

Here, we report that the reaction of enaminones, from a class of azole series, with sulfonyl azides leads to a difficult-to-separate mixture of two pairs of compounds: (1) 4-azoloyl-NH-1,2,3-triazoles with sulfonamides and (2) azolyl diazoketones with N-sulfonamidines, as a result of the implementation of two competing reactions. On one hand, the electron-donating methyl or methoxy group in the aryl para-position of arylsulfonyl azides favors the production of NH-1,2,3-triazoles together with sulfonamides. On the other hand, the use of highly electrophilic 4-nitrophenylsulfonyl azide promotes the formation of diazoketones and sulfonamidines. It is shown that the direction of each reaction is not only controlled by the nature of the initial enaminones and sulfonyl azides but also depends on the tested solvent. The problem of removing sulfonamides and amidines from the desired products was solved for the first time using new water-soluble enaminones. Based on the experimental and computational studies, the factors contributing to the selective course of alternative reactions were identified, and methods for the synthesis of azoloyl-NH-1,2,3-triazoles and azolyl diazoketones were developed. Density functional theory (DFT) results have shown that the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is totally driven toward one single regioisomer with a high asynchronous bond formation, and the introduction of an electron-deficient group in sulfonyl azides induces faster cycloaddition. Additionally, DFT calculations were used to gain further mechanistic insights on the reaction studied here.
RESUMO
This work deals with the synthesis and evaluation of fungicidal activity of benzimidazole derivatives, which are structural analogues of commercial anti-tubulin fungicides. A number of N-acyl and N-thioacyl derivatives of 2-amino-1H-benzo[d]imidazole were prepared, and their fungicidal activity against 13 strains of phytopathogenic fungi was studied. The most active compounds against the majority of the studied strains were 3a, 4l, and 4o, and the EC50 values of these compounds were in the range 2.5-20 µg/mL. Compound 3a showed the highest activity against the P. infestans strain, the growth of which is not suppressed by carbendazim. The formation of ligand-receptor complexes of various tautomeric forms of the studied benzimidazoles with homologous models of ß-tubulins of B. cinerea, F. oxysporum, and P. infestans was modeled. Induced fit docking has been used for the simulation. The obtained data suggest the possibility of binding of benzimidazole fungicides to ß-tubulin in the â³nocodazole cavityâ³ in the tautomeric form bearing a double exocyclic CâN bond. The importance of the formation of hydrogen bonds of benzimidazoles with the amino acid residue Val236 along with the Glu198 residue is also revealed in the present study.

Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) is regarded as a promising target for fungicide discovery. To continue our ongoing studies on the discovery of novel SDH inhibitors as fungicides, novel pyrazole-thiazole carboxamides were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antifungal activity. The results indicated that compounds 9ac, 9bf, and 9cb showed excellent in vitro activities against Rhizoctonia cerealis with EC50 values from 1.1 to 4.9 mg/L, superior to that of the commercial fungicide thifluzamide (EC50 = 23.1 mg/L). Compound 9cd (EC50 = 0.8 mg/L) was far more active than thifluzamide (EC50 = 4.9 mg/L) against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Compound 9ac exhibited promising in vivo activity against Rhizoctonia solani (90% at 10 mg/L), which was better than that of thifluzamide (80% at 10 mg/L). The field experiment showed that compound 9ac had 74.4% efficacy against Rhizoctonia solani on the 15th day after two consecutive sprayings at an application rate of 4.80 g a.i./667 m2, which was close to that of thifluzamide (83.3%). Furthermore, molecular docking explained the possible binding mode of compound 9ac in the RcSDH active site. Our studies indicated that the pyrazole-thiazole carboxamide hybrid is a new scaffold of SDH inhibitors.

The reactions of thioamides with azides in water were studied. It was reliably shown that the reaction of 2-cyanothioacetamides 1 with various types of azides 2 in water in the presence of alkali presents an efficient, general, one-step, atom-economic, and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of 1,2,3-thiadiazol-4-carbimidamides 5 and 1,2,3-triazole-4-carbothioamides 4. This method can be extended to the one-pot reaction of sulfonyl chlorides and 6-chloropyrimidines 2'o with sodium azide, leading to final products in higher yields, that is, avoiding the isolation of unsafe sulfonyl azides. The method was furthermore applied to the reaction of N,N'-bis-(2-cyanothiocarbonyl)pyrazine 1h with sulfonyl azides to afford bicyclic 1,2,3-thiadiazoles 8 and 1,2,3-triazoles 9 connected via a 1,1'-piperazinyl linker. 2-Cyanothioacetamides 1 were also shown to react with aromatic azides in water in the presence of alkali to afford 1-aryl-5-amino-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbothioamides 11. In contrast to aromatic azides and similarly to sulfonyl azides, 6-azidopyrimidine-2,4-diones 2o-q react with cyanothioacetamides to form N-pyrimidin-6-yl-5-dialkylamino-1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-N-l-carbimidamides 12. A mechanism was proposed to rationalize the role of water in changing the reactivity of azides toward 2-cyanothioacetamides.
RESUMO
A new approach towards the synthesis of multisubstituted thiophenes is elaborated based on Rh(II)-catalyzed domino reactions of acyclic diazoesters with α-cyanothioacetamides. It provides a way for the preparation of 5-amino-3-(alkoxycarbonylamino)thiophene-2-carboxylates, 2-(5-amino-2-methoxycarbonylthiophene-3-yl)aminomalonates and (2-cyano-5-aminothiophene-3-yl)carbamates with the preparative yields of up to 67%. It was also shown that α-cyanothioacetamides easily interact with dirhodium carboxylates to give rather stable 2:1 complexes, resulting in an evident decrease in the efficiency of the catalytic process at moderate temperatures (20-30 °C).
RESUMO
High yield solvent-base-controlled, transition metal-free synthesis of 4,5-functionalized 1,2,3-thiadiazoles and 1,2,3-triazoles from 2-cyanothioacetamides and sulfonyl azides is described. Under diazo transfer conditions in the presence of a base in an aprotic solvent 2-cyanothioacetamides operating as C-C-S building blocks produce 5-amino-4-cyano-1,2,3-thiadiazoles exclusively. The use of alkoxide/alcohol system completely switches the reaction course due to the change of one of the reaction centers in the 2-cyanothioacetamide (C-C-N building block) resulting in the formation of 5-sulfonamido-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbothioamide sodium salts as the only products. The latter serve as good precursors for 5-amino-1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-carboximidamides, the products of Cornforth-type rearrangement occurring in neutral protic medium or under acid conditions. According to DFT calculations (B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p)) the rearrangement proceeds via intermediate formation of a diazo compound, and can be catalyzed by acids via the protonation of oxygen atom of the sulfonamide group.
RESUMO
Strobilurin fungicides play a crucial role in protecting plants against different pathogens and securing food supplies. A series of 1,2,3-thiadiazole and thiazole-based strobilurins were rationally designed, synthesized, characterized, and tested against various fungi. Introduction of 1,2,3-thiadiazole greatly improved the fungicidal activity of the target molecules. Compounds 8a, 8c, 8d, and 10i exhibited a relatively broad spectrum of fungicidal activity. Compound 8a showed excellent activities against Gibberella zeae, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Rhizoctonia cerealis with median effective concentrations (EC50) of 2.68, 0.44, and 0.01 µg/mL, respectively; it was much more active than positive controls enestroburin, kresoxim-methyl, and azoxystrobin with EC50 between 0.06 and 15.12 µg/mL. Comparable or better fungicidal efficacy of compound 8a compared with azoxystrobin and trifloxystrobin against Sphaerotheca fuliginea and Pseudoperonspera cubensis was validated in cucumber fields at the same application dosages. Therefore, compound 8a is a promising fungicidal candidate worthy of further development.

A series of 4H-1,2,3-thiadiazolo[5,4-b]indoles were synthesized by novel tandem of oxidative cyclization of 3-alkoxycarbonylhydrazonoindoline-2-thiones, 1,5-H-shift and elimination of tert-butoxy(ethoxy)carbonyl group. The simple method for their modifications by the reactions with electrophilic agents were elaborated and as a result of the synthetic investigation a number of N-alkyl-, N-acyl- and N-sulfonyl-4H-1,2,3-thiadiazolo[5,4-b]indoles were prepared in good yields. Preliminary biological tests for the three examples of synthesized compounds with different substituents at the nitrogen atom indole ring have shown that the biological behavior of the investigated 1,2,3-thiadiazolo[5,4-b]indoles is substantially directed by this structural fragment.

Reactions of ß-azolyl enamines and nitrile oxides were studied by both experimental and theoretical methods. (E)-ß-(4-Nitroimidazol-5-yl), (5-nitroimidazol-4-yl) and isoxazol-5-yl enamines smoothly react regioselectively at room temperature in dioxane solution with aryl, pyridyl, and cyclohexylhydroxamoyl chlorides without a catalyst or a base to form 4-azolylisoxazoles as the only products in good yields. The intermediate 4,5-dihydroisoxazolines were isolated as trans isomers during the reaction of (E)-ß-imidazol-4-yl enamines with aryl and cyclohexylhydroxamoyl chlorides. Stepwise and concerted pathways for the reaction of ß-azolyl enamines with hydroxamoyl chlorides were considered and studied at the B3LYP/Def2-TZVP level of theory combined with D3BJ dispersion correction. The reactions of benzonitrile oxide with both E- and Z-imidazolyl enamines have been shown to proceed stereoselectively to form trans- and cis-isoxazolines, respectively. The preference of E-isomers over Z-isomers, driven by the higher stability of the former, apparently controls the stereoselectivity of the investigated cycloaddition reaction with benzonitrilе oxide. Based on the reactivity of azolyl enamines towards hydroxamoyl chlorides, a novel, effective catalyst-free method was elaborated to prepare 4-azolyl-5-substituted isoxazoles that are otherwise difficult to obtain.
RESUMO
The novel three-component reaction of isoquinoline with isothiocyanates and isocyanides leads to a variety of new imidazoisoquinolines. The zwitterionic ground state of these new ring systems is established by means of NMR and X-ray analysis. Use of phthalazine instead of isoquinoline gives access to imidazole annulated phthalazines.

Bis[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-f:5',1'-b][1,3,6]thiadiazepine and [1,5-g:5',1'-b][1,3,7]thiadiazocine ring systems have been synthesized from 5-halo-1,2,3-thiadiazoles and aliphatic diamines. We have found that the last step of the process is the cyclization of initially formed bis(1,2,3-triazolyl-1,2,3-thiadiazolyl)sulfides. The structures of the intermediates and products were supported by different NMR spectroscopic methods (1H coupled 13C NMR, 2D HETCOR, HMBC and 1D INADEQUATE experiments) and mass spectrometry. Differences in the reaction pathway for aliphatic and less nucleophilic aromatic diamines were determined.
