Herbicidal activity and application cyclic of phosphonates

Among alkylphosphonates Io,O,O-dimethyl 1-(2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetoxy) ethylphosphonate (clacyfos) was found to be an effective inhibitor against dicotyledons PHDc and exhibited excellent herbicidal activity in our previous work. According to our study on the alkylphosphonates Io, both R1 and R2 groups in the structural unit of phosphorus-containing played a very important role in herbicidal activity. Therefore, a series of 2-[1-(substituted phenoxycarboxy)alkyl]-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinane-2-one containing fluorine II was obtained by the modification of alkylphosphonates Io. The bioassay results showed that cyclic phosphonate II-6 with CH3 as R, 2-Cl,4-F as Yn exhibited promising herbicidal activity. Its herbicidal activity, weed-controlling spectrum, selectivity between crops and weeds were further evaluated in greenhouse and field.

Design and Synthesis of Novel 4-Hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one Derivatives for Use as Herbicides and Evaluation of Their Mode of Action

In order to develop a novel herbicide containing the β-triketone motif, a series of 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. The bioassay results showed that compound II15 had good pre-emergent herbicidal activity even at a dosage of 187.5 g ha-1. Moreover, compound II15 showed a broader spectrum of weed control when compared with a commercial herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and displayed good crop safety to Triticum aestivum L. and Zea mays Linn. when applied at 375 g ha-1 under pre-emergence conditions, which indicated its great potential as a herbicide. More importantly, studying the molecular mode of action of compound II15 revealed that the novel triketone structure is a proherbicide of its corresponding phenoxyacetic acid auxin herbicide, which has a herbicidal mechanism similar to that of 2,4-D. The present work indicates that the 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one motif may be a potential lead structure for further development of novel auxin-type herbicides.

Synthesis and herbicidal activity of 2-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkyl-5, 5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-one containing fluorine

A series of novel 2-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2- dioxaphosphinan-2-one bearing fluorine 5a-n and fluorine free 5o-q were designed and synthesized. The results of bioassay showed that some of the target compounds exhibited excellent herbicidal activities to Abutilon theophrasti, Brassica juncea, Amaranthus retroflexus and Eclipta prostrata in post-emergence treatment at a dosage of 150 g ai/ha. It could be found that the type and position of fluorine-containing group as X or Y on benzene ring had a very important effect on herbicidal activity. Compound 5l 2-[(2-chloro-4- fluorophenoxy)acetoxy](methyl)methyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-one showed notable herbicidal activity, with 100% inhibition against A. theophrasti and A. retroflexus; and compound 5m 2-(3-trifluoromethylphenoxyacetoxy)(methyl) methyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-one with 100% inhibition against A. theophrasti even at a dosage of 75 g ai/ha. Additional crop selectivity testing showed that compounds 5g 2-(3-trifluoromethylphenoxyacetoxy)(phenyl)methyl-5,5- dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphinan-2-one and 5l are safe to rice, corn, cotton, rape and wheat.

Studies of O,O-Dimethyl α-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetoxy) ethylphosphonate (HW02) as a new herbicide. 1. Synthesis and herbicidal activity of HW02 and analogues as novel inhibitors of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex

On the basis of the previous work for optimization of O,O-diethyl α-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkylphosphonates, further extensive syntheticmodifications were made to the substituents in alkylphosphonate and phenoxymoieties of the title compounds. New O,O-dimethyl α-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkylphosphonates were synthesized as potential inhibitors of pyruvate dehydorogenase complex (PDHc). Their herbicidal activity and efficacy in vitro against PDHc were examined. Some of these compounds exhibited significant herbicidal activity and were demonstrated to be effective inhibitors of PDHc from three different plants. The structure-activity relationships of these compounds including previously reported analogous compoundswere studied by examining their herbicidal activities. Both inhibitory potency against PDHc and herbicidal activity of title compounds could be increased greatly by optimizing substituent groups of the title compounds. O,O-Dimethyl α-(2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetoxy)ethylphosphonate (I-5), which acted as a competitive inhibitor of PDHc with much higher inhibitory potency against PDHc from Pisum sativum and Phaseolus radiatus than from Oryza sativa, was found to be themost effective compound against broadleaf weeds and showed potential utility as herbicide.

The synthesis and herbicidal evaluation of fluorine-containing phenoxyacetoxyalkylphosphonate derivatives

To investigate the influence of a fluorine moiety on the biological activity of phenoxyacetoxyalkylphosphonates, a series of fluorine-containing phenoxyacetoxyalkylphosphonates were synthesized and screened for herbicidal activity in a greenhouse. The majority of the title compounds showed better preemergence activity than postemergence activity against the test plants, especially on monocotyledon. Compound 5l exhibited notable activity. Results showed that by introducing a fluorine moiety to the parent structure of phenoxyacetoxyalkylphosphonates, a series of new compounds with satisfactory herbicidal activity could be synthesized. A reasonable combination of a fluorine moiety and other substituents on the benzene ring had a great influence on the herbicidal activity. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
