By introducing the pyrazole moiety into the 5-position of 1,3,4-oxadiazole,a series of novel 2-(thioether/sulfone)-5-pyrazolyl-l,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized.Preliminary bioassays suggested that target compounds exhibited appreciable activity against pathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae(Xoo) and five phytopathogenic fungi in vitro.Among them,the half-maximal effective concentration(EC_(50)) values of 6c,7a,7b and 7c against Xoo were within 16.6 μg/mL and 65.7 μg/mL,which were better than those of commercial agricultural antibacterial bismerthiazol(92.6 μg/mL) and thiodiazole copper(121.8 μg/mL).While compounds 7a,7b,and 7c exerted comprehensive antifungal activity toward five plant fungi,which were comparable with that of hymexazol.The results demonstrated that this kind of compounds can be further studied and developed as promising antifungal and antibacterial agents.

A series of novel 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives(6a–6n, 7a, 7b, and 8a-8f)were synthesised by placing the amide bond at the 4-position of the pyrazole ring. These derivatives differed from the structure of chlorantraniliprole analogues with the amide bond at the 5-position of the pyrazole ring. Preliminary bioassay results revealed that a few title compounds exhibited good insecticidal activities against lepidopteran pests, such as Plutella xylostella, Mythimna separate, Heliothis armigera, and Ostrinia nubilalis. Some title compounds also elicited broad-spectrum insecticidal activities against dipterous insects including Culex pipiens pallens after altering the amide position. Similar to pyrazole-5-carboxamide analogues, compounds 6b and 6e showed 100% insecticidal activity against P. xylostella, C. pipiens pallens, and M. separate at concentrations of 200, 2, and 200 mg/m L, respectively.This finding suggested that 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives are potential alternative insecticides for management of agriculture pests.
