Abstract: A facile and efficient method for the synthesis of sulfonated or sulfenylated pyrazolones catalyzed by KIO₃ was established. A variety of desired products were obtained in moderate to high yields. This methodology could be conducted under mild reaction conditions without requiring any metal. Control experiments showed that the mechanism of this reaction was different from previous KIO₃-catalyzed reactions. Some of these desired products showed high inhibitory activity against V. mali and B. cinerea.

1. Introduction

Pyrazole and its derivatives are important heterocycles and prominent chemical entities which have been found in diverse pharmacological and biologically-active com- pounds.^[1] Accordingly, more and more efforts have been devoted to the development of a synthetic methodology for the chemical derivatization on the pyrazole nucleus. In particular, the syntheses of sulfenylated or sulfonated pyrazoles have received much attention in organic chemistry because of their usefulness as herbicidal agents, ^[2] antioxidants, ^[3] agrochemicals, and materials.^[4] Previous method for the synthesis of sulfonated pyrazoles suffer from the extra steps needed for the preparation of active precursors.^[5] For example, in 2017, Wang and his coworkers^[6] developed a convenient molecular iodine- catalyzed direct sulfonylation of pyrazolones at room temperature (Figure 1b). Shermolovich et al.^[7a] had earlier described a protocol for the oxidation of preformed pyrazolones by employingstoichiometric amounts of m- chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) or H₂O₂ (Figure 1a). Our group^[7b] also realized the sulfonylation of pyrazolones using water as solvent (Figure 1c). In 2014, Lu et al.^[8] reported sulphenylation of pyrazolones with aryl sulphonylhydrazides catalyzed by I₂. A tetrabutylammo- nium iodide (TBAI)-HBr system which mediated the reaction between pyrazolones and benzenesulfonyl chlorides was realized by Yanʼs group.^[9] In 2016, Wang's group^[10] found that NaOH was good promoter for sulfenylation of pyrazolones. In 2017, Wang et al.^[11] obtained the sulfenylated pyrazoles via a radical pathway promoted by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Nevertheless, it is still of interest to develop simple and efficient methods for the synthesis of sulfenylated or sulfonated pyrazoles.

Compared with other metal catalysts, iodine reagent has the merits of low cost, ready availability, non-toxicity etc. At present, various reactions such as sulfonylation, ^[12] cyclization, ^[13] oxidation etc., ^[14] have been successfully realized in the presence of iodine reagents.^[15] With our on-going interest in iodine reagent-catalyzed reactions and C—H bond activation, ^[16] herein the KIO₃ mediated reaction for the synthesis of sulfonated or sulfenylated pyrazoles was present.

2. Results and discussion

Initially, 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one (A1) and sodium benzenesulfinate (B1) were chosen as model substrate for optimization of the reaction condition. When the model reaction was conducted in DMSO, the product was generated in 35% yield (Table 1, Entry 1). Other solvents such as 1, 2-dimethoxyethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), ethylene glycol also gave low yields (Table 1, Entries 2, 4, 5). The desired product could be achieved in higher yield (62%) when ethanol was the solvent (Table 1, Entry 3). However, only trace amount of product was detected when reaction was carried out in CH₃CN, CHCl₃, 1, 2-dichlo- roethane, 1, 4-dioxane, toluene (Table 1, Entries 6~10). To our delight, higher yield of product (86%) was obtained when the reaction temperature was changed to 120 ℃ (Table 1, Entry 11). If the reaction temperature was further elevated to 130 ℃, however, no improvement on the yield of product was observed (Table 1, Entry 12). Furthermore, reducing the amounts of catalyst lead to a decreased yield of product (Table 1, Entry 13). When no KIO₃ was added or KCl was used as catalyst, the reaction did not proceed (Table 1, Entries 14, 15). The desired product could be obtained in 83% yield when the reaction was conducted under N₂ atmosphere (Table 1, Entry 16).

With the optimized reaction conditions in hand, the scope of the reaction was examined and it was found that a variety of substrates were applicable to this transformation. As shown in Table 2, pyrazolones which have electron- donating or electron-withdrawing groups on the aryl rings such as 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one, 3-me- thyl-1-(p-tolyl)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)- 3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one and 1-(2-chlorophenyl)- 3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one were suitable for this reaction and the desired products were obtained in moderate to high yields (C1~C8). For the substituted sodium sulfinates, different groups were also well-tolerated in this transformation (C9~C13). As it is well-known, F is an important substituent in organic synthesis. It is noteworthy that when sodium 4-fluorobenzenesulfinate was tested, the desired products were obtained in 73%~82% yields (C10, C11). To our delight, sodium methane- sulphinate also worked smoothly in the reaction, affording the corresponding products in moderate yields (C14, C15).

In order to further explore KIO₃-catalyzed reactions, the reaction between 4-methylbenzenethiol and 3-methyl-1- phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one was also tested in the presence of KIO₃. When EtOH was used as solvent, the desired product was obtained in 60% yield. After a series of reaction condition screening experiments, the optimized reaction conditions for this reaction were found to be KIO₃ (0.30 equiv.) as catalyst, CHCl₃ as solvent at 100 ℃ for 8 h.

Having the optimized reaction conditions in hand, the scope of substrates which could be used were next investigated (Table 3). When 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H- pyrazol-5(4H)-one was tested, the product E1 was obtained in 90% yield. Other substituents, such as Cl and CH₃ on the phenyl ring of pyrazolones were also tolerated in this system (E2, E3). It is possible that the steric effect palys an important role on the yields. When substituents are on the 4-position of aryl thiols, the corresponding products were afforded in high yields (E10~E16). On the other hand, when substituents are on 3-position or 2-position of aryl thiols, relatively lower yields were observed (E4~E9). Naphthalene-1-thiol was also well tolerated in this reaction and the desired product was obtained in 80% yields (E17). To our disappointment, there was no corresponding product when 1, 3-dimethyl- 1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one was subjected to this transformation (E18).

Although the reaction mechanism is not clear at this stage, a control experiment was performed to gain an insight into this transformation. When reactions were carried out in the presence of a radical scavenger such as, 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO), reactions were obviously inhibited (Scheme 1). This result reveled that a radical pathway might be involved in the trans- formation. This is different from the previously reported KIO₃-catalyzed reacitons.^[15h~15j] In those reported KIO₃- catalyzed reactions, the possibility of a radical pathway was excluded.

With a view to discovering the biological activity of these desired products, several products from Tables 2 and 4 were preliminarily screened for anti-microbial activity. It can be seen from Table 4 that products C4, E2, E11, E12, E14, E15 and E16 exhibited significant inhibitory activity against Valsa mali. Compound C4 showed 78% inhibition of Botrytis cirerea. These inhibition values are higher than those reported for Carbendazim.^{[17, 18]} To our disappointment, all the compounds were not very active to C. gloeosporioides and the highest inhibition rated was 50.52%.

3. Conclusions

In summary, an efficient and facile method for construction of sulfonated or sulfenylated pyrazolones has been successfully developed. Without additional oxidant, a variety of desired products could be obtained in moderate to high yields in mild reaction condition. Radical was proposed for this reaction mechanism which is different from previous KIO₃-catalyzed C—S bond formation reactions. Further studies into the reaction mechanism and bioactivity are ongoing in our laboratory.

4. Experimental section

4.1 Instruments and reagents

NMR spectra were recorded on a BRUKER AVANCE III HD 500 MHz spectrometers, operating at 500 MHz for ¹H NMR and at 126 MHz for ¹³C NMR acquisitions. HRMS spectra were performed on a Orbitrap Fusion Lumos. All major chemicals and solvents were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification.

4.2 General procedure for the synthesis of C and E

Typical procedure for the synthesis of sulfonylated pyrazolones: A sealable reaction tube equipped with a magnetic stirrer bar was charged with pyrazolone (0.5 mmol), sodium benzenesulfinate (1.3 equiv.), KIO₃ (0.3 equiv.), and EtOH (2 mL). The reaction vessel was sealed and carried out 120 ℃ under air. After completion (detected by thin-layer chromatography), it was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and brine, dried with Mg₂SO₄. After the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate/petro- leum ether, V:V＝1:3) to afford the corresponding product.
