- Novel strobilurin derivatives containing carboxylate unit as potential antifungal agents
-
Background: Due to the extensive use of a single fungicide to control crop diseases, the increase of resistant individuals leads to control failures. The search for molecules with fungicidal activity is still ongoing. Strobilurin is one of the most popularly used fungicides in the agrochemical field. A large number of strobilurin derivatives with both high activity and low toxicity have been developed. Methods: In the present study, a series of novel ortho-substituted benzyl carboxylates were efficiently synthesized by the reaction of (E)-methyl 2-(2-(bromom-ethyl)phenyl)-2-methoxyiminoaceta with various carboxylic acids. Their structures were confirmed and characterized by1H NMR,13C NMR, and ESI-MS analysis. Their fungicidal activities against common phytopathogenic fungi from six major cash crops were screened based on the pesticides guidelines for the laboratory bioactivity tests. Results: The primary fungicidal activity test results indicate that all compounds showed a certain inhibitory effect on the growth of 13 plants pathogenic fungi at a concentration of 100 ppm, and Compd 3 has the most obvious inhibitory effect on all fungi. Further fungicidal activity studies indicate that some of these novel strobilurin derivatives containing carboxylate unit exhibited potential in vitro fungicidal activities at the dosage of 6.25 mg·L-1. Conclusion: A series of the ortho-substituted benzyl carboxylates derivatives containing β-methoxyacrylate moiety were designed and synthesized by modifying the side chain of traditional strobilurin fungicide. Compd 3, Compd 2 and Compd 16 were identified as the most promising candidates for further study.

- Efficient Method for Aromatic-Aldehyde Oxidation by Cleavage of Their Hydrazones Catalysed by Trimethylsilanolate
-
The reactions of hydrazones, derived from various aromatic aldehydes bound to Rink resin and hydrazines, with trimethylsilanolate have been studied. In this process, the aldehydes were oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic acids. The reaction was also tested with success in solution, with various aromatic aldehydes easily being oxidized in one pot via hydrazone formation and trimethylsilanolate treatment. A mechanism for the hydrazone cleavage is proposed. The reaction may be used as an alternative method for aldehyde oxidation with the selectivity complementary to that of currently used reactions.

- Decarboxylative cross-coupling of aryl tosylates with aromatic carboxylate salts
-
(Figure Presented) A bimetallic copper/palladium catalyst system is disclosed that enables the use of tosylates as carbon electrophiles in decarboxylative coupling reactions. A variety of aromatic carboxylate salts, regardless of their substitution pattern, have been coupled with these inexpensive and readily available electrophiles to give the corresponding biaryl compounds in good yields (see scheme).

- Biaryl and aryl ketone synthesis via Pd-catalyzed decarboxylase coupling of carboxylate salts with aryl triflates
-
A bimetallic catalyst system has been developed that for the first time allows the decarboxylative crosscoupling of aryl and acyl carboxylates with aryl triflates. In contrast to aryl halides, these electrophiles give rise to non-coordinating anions as byproducts, which do not interfere with the decarboxylation step that leads to the generation of the carbon nucleophilic crosscoupling partner. As a result, the scope of carboxylate substrates usable in this transformation was extended from ortho-substituted or otherwise activated derivatives to a broad range of ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted aromatic carboxylates. Two alternative protocols have been optimized, one involving heating the substrates in the presence of CuI/1,10- phenanthroline (10-15 mol %) and PdI2/phosphine (23 mol%) in NMP for 1-24 h, the other involving CuI/l,10-phenanthroline (615mol%) and PdBr2/Tol-BINAP (2 mol % ) in NMP using microwave heating for 5-10 min. While most products are accessible using standard heating, the use of microwave irradiation was found to be beneficial especially for the conversion of non-activated carboxylates with functionalized aryl triflates. The synthetic utility of the transformation is demonstrated with 48 examples showing the scope and limitations of both protocols. In mechanistic studies, the special role of microwave irradiation is elucidated, and further perspectives of decarboxylase crosscouplings are discussed.

- Decarboxylative biaryl synthesis from aromatic carboxylates and aryl triflates
-
A new catalyst system, generated in situ from Cu2O, 1,10-phenanthroline, PdI2, and Tol-BINAP, for the first time allows the decarboxylative coupling of carboxylic acids with aryl triflates. In contrast to previous decarboxylative couplings that remained limited to certain activated carboxylates, e.g., ortho-substituted benzoates, this halide-free protocol is generally applicable to aromatic carboxylic acid salts regardless of their substitution pattern.
