Abstract
The tautomerism of a series of 5-alkyl substituted 3-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles in DMSO-d6-containing water has been investigated by 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopy. The populations of the three possible regioisomers in the tautomeric equilibrium (A [3-alkyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1H], B [5-alkyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-1H] and C [5-alkyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-4H]) were determined. Isomers A (17-40%) and B (54-79%) are the major components and their ratio is insensitive to the substitution pattern, except for the unsubstituted and the methoxymethyl substituted derivatives. The isomer C (3-5%) has been fully characterised for the first time by NMR spectroscopy. Activation energies of tautomerisation (14.74-16.78 kcal mol-1) were determined by EXSY experiments, which also supported the involvement of water in the tautomerisation. Substituent effects on the 15N chemical shifts are relatively small. The DFT study of the tautomerism in DMSO-water showed that both A/B and B/C interconversions are assisted by the pyridine substituent and catalysed by solvent molecules. The NH-A/NH-B tautomerisation takes place via a relayed quadruple proton transfer mediated by three water molecules in the hydrogen-bonded cyclic substructure of a triazole·4H2O complex. The equilibrium B ⇄ C involves three steps: NH-B transfer to the pyridyl nitrogen mediated by a water molecule in a 1 : 1 cyclic complex, rotamerisation to bring the pyridinium NH close to N4 of the triazole catalysed by complexation to a DMSO molecule and transfer of the NH from the pyridinium donor to the N4 acceptor via a 1 : 1 complex with a bridging water molecule. This mechanism of 1,3-prototropic shift in triazoles is unprecedented in the literature.

Abstract
Two series of dehydroabietyl-1,2,4-triazole-4-Schiff-based derivatives were synthesized from rosin to control plant fungal diseases. In vitro evaluation and screening of the antifungal activity were performed using Valsa mali, Colletotrichum orbiculare, Fusarium graminearum, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Gaeumannomyces graminis. Compound 3f showed excellent fungicidal activity against V. mali (EC50 = 0.537 μg/mL), which was significantly more effective than the positive control fluconazole (EC50 = 4.707 μg/mL). Compound 3f also had a considerable protective effect against V. mali (61.57%-92.16%), which was slightly lower than that of fluconazole (85.17-100%) at 25-100 μg/mL. Through physiological and biochemical analyses, the preliminary mode of action of compound 3f against V. mali was explored. Ultrastructural observation of mycelia showed that compound 3f hindered the growth of the mycelium and destroyed the ultrastructure of V. mali seriously. Conductivity analysis and laser scanning confocal microscope staining showed that compound 3f changed cell-membrane permeability and caused accumulation of reactive oxygen species. The enzyme activity results showed that compound 3f significantly inhibited the activity of CYP51 (59.70%), SOD (76.9%), and CAT (67.86%). Molecular docking identified strong interaction energy between compound 3f and crystal structures of CYP51 (-11.18 kcal/mol), SOD (-9.25 kcal/mol), and CAT (-8.79 kcal/mol). These results provide guidance for the discovery of natural product-based antifungal pesticide candidates.

Abstract
Crop disease caused by fungi seriously affected food security and economic development. Inspired by the utilization of fungicide containing 1,2,4-triazole and trifluoromethylpyrimidine, a novel series of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]trifluoromethylpyrimidine derivatives bearing the thioether moiety were synthesized. Meanwhile, the antifungal activities of the title compounds were evaluated and most compounds exhibited obvious antifungal activities against cucumber Botrytis cinerea, strawberry Botrytis cinerea, tobacco Botrytis cinerea, blueberry Botrytis cinerea, Phytophthora infestans, and Pyricularia oryzae Cav. Among the compounds, 4, 5h, 5o, and 5r showed significant antifungal activities against three of the four Botrytis cinerea, which indicated the potential to become the leading structures or candidates for resistance to Botrytis cinerea.

Abstract
3,5-bis(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (bis-HPTA) has attracted wide attention due to the important application in the detection of microorganisms and insecticidal activity. However, the mechanisms of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process and decay pathways are still a matter of debate. In this work, we have comprehensively investigated the photodynamics of bis-HPTA by executing combined electronic structure calculations and nonadiabatic surface-hopping dynamics simulations. Based on the computed electronic structure and dynamics information, we propose two nonadiabatic deactivation channels that efficiently populate the ground state from the Franck-Condon region. In the first one, after being excited to the bright S1 state, bis-HPTA molecule undergoes an ultrafast and barrierless ESIPT-1 process. Then, the system encounters with an energetically accessible S1/S0 conical intersection (CI), which funnels the system to the ground state speedily. Afterward, the keto species either arrives at the keto product or return to its enol species via a ground-state proton transfer in the S0 state. In the other excited-state decay channel, the S1 system hops to the ground state through a different CI, which involves the ESIPT-2 process. In our dynamics simulations, about 79.6% of the trajectories decay to the S0 state via the first CI, while the remaining ones employ the second conical intersection. The results of dynamics simulations also demonstrated that the lifetime of the S1 state is estimated as 315 fs. The present work will give elaborating mechanistic information of similar compounds in various environments.

Abstract
Tyrosinase inhibition is very important in controlling melanin synthesis. If melanin synthesis is not controlled in metabolism, an unwanted increase in melanin synthesis occurs. As melanin plays a role in the formation of skin color, its unusual levels cause some skin disorders such as pregnancy scars, age spots, and especially skin cancer (melanoma). However, the tyrosinase activity is also related to Parkinson's disease and some neurodegenerative diseases. For all these reasons, the medicinal as well as the cosmetic industries focus on research on tyrosinase inhibitors for the treatment of skin disorders and some neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, 32 new 1,2,4-triazole-(thio)semicarbazide hybrid molecules (6a-p and 7a-p) were synthesized, starting from 4-amino-1-pentyl-3-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-one. These compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase. The results indicated that 6h, 6m, 6n, and 6p exhibited the most effective inhibitory activity, with IC50 values of 0.00162 ± 0.0109, 0.00166 ± 0.0217, 0.00165 ± 0.019, and 0.00197 ± 0.0063 μM, respectively, compared with kojic acid as the reference drug (IC50 = 14.09 ± 0.02 μM). Also, molecular docking analyses were performed to suggest possible binding poses for the ligands. As a result, derivatives 6h, 6m, 6n, and 6p can be used as promising tyrosinase inhibitor candidates in the medicinal, cosmetics, or food industries.
