Antifungal Activity of 4-Methyl-6-alkyl-2H-pyran-2-ones
摘要:
A number of 4-methyl-6-alkyl-alpha-pyrones were synthesized and characterized on the basis of H-1 NMR and mass spectroscopy. These compounds were tested in vitro against pathogenic fungi, namely, Sclerotium rolfsii Saccardo, Rhizoctonia bataticola (Taub.) Butler, Pythium aphanidermatum (Edson) Fitz., Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi), Pythium debaryanum (Hesse), and Rhizoctonia solani Nees. Lower homologues were less effective, whereas compounds such as 4-methyl-6-butyl-alpha-pyrone, 4-methyl-6-pentyl-alpha-pyrone, 4-methyl-6-hexyl-alpha-pyrone, and 4-methyl-6-heptyl-alpha-pyrone were found effective against all of the test fungi. They inhibited mycelial growth by approximately 50% (ED50) at 15-50 mu g/mL. 4-Methyl-6-hexyl-alpha-pyrone, which was found most effective, was tested against S. rolfsii in a greenhouse at 1, 5, and 10% concentrations. The 10% aqueous emulsion of 4-methyl-6-hexyl-alpha-pyrone suppressed disease development in tomato by 90-93% as compared with the untreated infested soil in the greenhouse after 35 days of treatment.

exceptional level of sophistication in cross‐coupling chemistry, reactions of substrates that incorporate the leaving group as an integral part into a heterocyclic scaffold are scarce. The title reaction outlines the utility of this reaction format (see scheme; acac=acetylacetonate), provides a convenient entry into stereodefined diene carboxylates, and adds a new chapter to the field of iron catalysis.

In the presence of simple iron salts, 2-pyridone derivatives react with Grignard reagents under mild conditions to give the corresponding 1,6-addition products; if the reaction medium is supplemented with an aprotic dipolar cosolvent after the actual addition step, the intermediates primarily formed succumb to ring opening, giving rise to non-thermodynamic Z,E-configured dienoic acid amide derivatives
Palladium-catalysed regio- and stereoselective annulation of allenyl stannanes by β-iodo vinylic acids gives the corresponding α-pyrones in high yields. This annulation most probably proceeds through a Stille reaction/cyclisation sequence.
A general route to α-pyrones and 3-substitutedisocoumarins from (Z)-iodovinylic acids 1a−f or 2-iodobenzoic acids 4a−c is described, including compounds bearing a substituent on the aromatic ring. Treatment of (Z)-β-iodovinylic acids 1a−f or 2-iodobenzoic acids 4a−c with various allenyltributyltin reagents in the presence of palladium acetate, triphenylphosphine, and tetrabutylammonium bromide in
