Synthesis, antifungal activity and in vitro mechanism of novel 1-substituted-5-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives

Inspired by the wide application of amides in plant pathogens, a series of novel 1-substituted-5-trifluoromethyl‑1H‑pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives were designed and synthesized. Bioassay results indicated that some target compounds exhibited excellent and broad-spectrum in vitro and certain in v...

description Inspired by the wide application of amides in plant pathogens, a series of novel 1-substituted-5-trifluoromethyl‑1H‑pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives were designed and synthesized. Bioassay results indicated that some target compounds exhibited excellent and broad-spectrum in vitro and certain in vivo antifungal activities. Among them, the in vitro EC50 values of Y13 against G. zeae, B. dothidea, F. prolifeatum and F. oxysporum were 13.1, 14.4, 13.3 and 21.4 mg/L, respectively. The in vivo protective activity of Y13 against G. zeae at 100 mg/L was 50.65%. SAR analysis revealed that the phenyl on the 1-position of the pyrazole ring was important for this activity. An antifungal mechanism study of Y13 against G. zeae demonstrated that this compound may disrupt the cell membrane of mycelium, thus inhibiting the growth of fungi. These mechanistic study results were inconsistent with those for traditional amides and may provide a novel view for deep study of this series of pyrazole carboxamide derivatives.
