Synthesis of 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-one derivatives containing spirocyclic indoline-2-one moieties and their nematicidal evaluation

Base-Promoted Formal (3 + 2) Cycloaddition of α-Halohydroxamates with Electron-Deficient Alkenyl-iminoindolines To Synthesize Spiro-indolinepyrrolidinones

Construction of pyrrolidinyl-spiroindoles with easily available starting materials has attracted considerable attention from the synthesis community and is in great demand. Here, we describe a base-promoted formal (3 + 2) cycloaddition of α-halohydroxamates with alkenyl-iminoindolines. The present methodology features mild reaction conditions and a broad substrate scope with up to 99% yield and excellent diastereoselectivity. The versatility of this approach is demonstrated through valuable synthetic transformations. Preliminary mechanistic studies shed light on the mechanism of this cycloaddition process.

Role of Indole Derivatives in Agrochemistry: Synthesis and Future Insights

Abstract:

Heterocycles constitute a wider class of organic compounds which contribute significantly in every facet of pure and applied chemistry. Indole, one of the bicyclic heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen atom, witnessed unparalleled biological activity such as antiviral, antibacterial, anticancer, anti-depressant and antifungal activities. Different biological activities exhibited by indole derivatives provide the impulsion to explore its activity against anti-phytopathogenic microbes to save the plants from pests and disease, as food security will once again become a rigid demand. This review mainly focuses on various methods related to the synthesis of indole derivatives and its role in agriculture.

Chemical Nematicides: Recent Research Progress and Outlook

Plant-parasitic nematodes have caused huge economic losses to agriculture worldwide and seriously threaten the sustainable development of modern agriculture. Chemical nematicides are still the most effective means to manage nematodes. However, the long-term use of organophosphorus and carbamate nematicides has led to a lack of field control efficacy and increased nematode resistance. To meet the huge market demand and slow the growth of resistance, new nematicides are needed to enter the market. The rational design and synthesis of new chemical scaffolds to screen for new nematicides is still a difficult task. We reviewed the latest research progress of nematicidal compounds in the past decade, discussed the structure-activity relationship and mechanism of action, and recommended some nematicidal active fragments. It is hoped that this review can update the recent progress on nematicide discoveries and provide new ideas for the design and mechanism of action studies of nematicides.

Synthesis and nematicidal activities of 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-one derivatives containing benzo[d][1,2,3]thiadiazole against Meloidogyne incognita

Based on the characteristic of benzo[d][1,2,3]thiadiazole to induce the systemic acquired resistance and improve the immunity of plants, benzo[d][1,2,3]thiadiazole was introduced into 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-one, thirty-one novel 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-one derivatives containing benzo[d][1,2,3]thiadiazole were designed and synthesized. Nematicidal activity showed that most of the synthesized compounds exhibited great inhibitory activity in vivo against Meloidogyne incognita at 20 mg/L. Among 31 tested compounds, A2 and A3 showed an excellent nematicidal activity with the inhibition rate of 50.4% and 53.1% at the concentration of 1.0 mg/L, respectively. The influence of substituent type and position was investigated. The relationship between structure and activity was also preliminary analyzed.
