Abstract

A series of novel N‐{5‐[2‐(4,6‐dimethoxy‐pyrimidin‐2‐yloxy)‐phenyl]‐[1,3,4]thiadiazol‐2‐yl}2‐aroxy‐propanamides were designed and synthesized by the multistep reactions. 2‐(4,6‐Dimethoxy‐pyrimidin‐2‐yloxy)‐benzaldehyde (1) reacted with aminothiourea to yield 2, which undergoes ring closure to give 5‐[2‐(4,6‐dimethoxy‐pyrimidin‐2‐yloxy)‐phenyl]‐[1,3,4]thiadiazol‐2‐amine (3) in the presence of ferric chloride in refluxing ethanol. 3 reacted with 2‐aroxy‐propionyl chlorides to give the target compounds 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f, 4g, 4h, 4i in moderate to good yields. Their structures were confirmed by IR, 1H‐NMR, EIMS, and elemental analyses. The preliminary bioassay indicated that some of them displayed moderate to good selective herbicidal activity against Brassica campestris L. at the concentration of 100 mg/L. However, these compounds did not possess inhibitory activity against Echinochloa crus‐galli at the tested concentrations.
