Selenium analogs of phenoxypropionic and phenoxyacetic herbicides

Selenium analogs of phenoxyacetic herbicides, namely 2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propionic acid (2,4-DP), 2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid (2,4-D), 2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionic acid (MCPP), 2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)acetic acid (MCPA), 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)propionic acid (2,4,5-TP), and 2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)acetic acid (2,4,5-T), were synthesized in two steps. Iodo aryl derivatives were dimerized with elemental selenium in the presence of CuO as catalyst to the corresponding diselenides. Diselenides were reduced with NaBH4 to a selenide anion and condensed with either propionic or chloroacetic acid to achieve the selenium analogs of phenoxyacetic herbicides. These selenium analogs show moderate herbicidal and fungistatic activity.

Design, Synthesis, and Testing of Potential Antisickling Agents. 4. Structure-Activity Relationships of Benzyloxy and Phenoxy Acids

In this paper we further establish the activity of two classes of small molecules, benzyloxy and phenoxy acids, as potent inhibitors of hemoglobin S (HbS) gelation.Structural modifications with a large number of each class confirm our earlier work that the highest activity is observed with compounds that contain dihalogenated aromatic rings with attached polar side chains.We have also found a halogenated aromatic malonic acid derivative to be quite active.Compounds reported in this paper are compared with other antigelling agents studied in our laboratory.Comments are made concerning the antigelling activity and binding sites of four derivatives and their effect on the allosteric mechanism of hemoglobin (Hb) function.
