3,5-Dimethoxyhomophthalic acid was synthesized in four steps from 3,5-dimethoxycinnamic acid via a series of reactions including cyclization of 3-（3＇,5＇-dimethoxyphenyl）propionic acid to 5,7-dimethoxy-1-indanone and oxidative decomposition of methyl-2-hydroxy-2-[5,7-dimethyoxy-1-oxo-1H-inden-2（3H）-ylidene]acetate to 3,5-dimethoxyhomophthalic acid.The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis,IR,1H NMR,and MS.The biological evaluation experiments of 3,5-dimthoxyhomophthalic acid and the related synthesized compounds were also carried out.Naturally occurring biologically active isocoumarins were prepared in a single step by the condensation of the homophthalic acid with appropriate acid chlorides.
The compound 3,6-bis（4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl）-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4] thiadiazole（C9H6N8S3,Mr = 322.40） has been synthesized by the reaction of 4-amino-3-（4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazolyl）-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole with 4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-carboxylic acid and phosphorus oxychloride,and its structure was characterized by IR,1H NMR,EI-MS,elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The crystal of the title compound belongs to monoclinic,space group C2/c with a = 2.0053（4）,b = 1.3081（3）, c = 1.0556（2） nm, β = 112.69（3）°,Z = 4, V= 2.5548（9） nm^3, Dc = 1.676 g/cm^3, μ= 0.582 mm^-1, F（000） = 1312, R = 0.0546 and wR = 0.1523. X-ray analysis indicates that all rings are essentially planar in this molecule, and an intermolecular hydrogen bond C（9）-H（9）…N（2） and weak intramolecular interactions between S（1）…N（7）, S（3）…N（1） and S（2）…N（4） are observed.
Four 4-monosubstituted pyrimidine pyridyl sulfonylureas were synthesized from pyridinesulfonamide and phenyl pyrimidylcarbamate and screened for herbicidal activities. We also reported a convenient preparation process of phenyl pyrimidylcarbamates from pyrimidineamine and phenyl chloroformate.
