Pyrazole derivatives and process for the production thereof
View Patent ↗The present invention provides pyrazole derivatives useful as production intermediates for isoxazoline derivatives having an excellent herbicidal effect and selectivity between crops and weeds as well as processes for producing the same. The pyrazole derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which are inventive compounds are represented by the general formula [I] or a salt thereof: wherein R 1 represents a C1 to C6 alkyl group, R 2 represents a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group, R 3 represents a hydrogen atom, a C1 to C3 alkyl group which may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the following substituent group α, or a formyl group, R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group, provided that R 4 represents a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group in the case that R 3 is a hydrogen or a formyl group, and R 4 is a hydrogen group or a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group in the case that R 3 is a C1 to C3 alkyl group which may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the following substituent group α.
1. A pyrazole derivative represented by the general formula [I] or a salt thereof:
wherein R 1 represents a C1 to C6 alkyl group, R 2 represents a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group, R 3 represents a hydrogen atom, a C1 to C3 alkyl group which may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the following substituent group α, or a formyl group, R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group, provided that R 4 represents a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group in the case that R 3 is a hydrogen or a formyl group and R 4 is a hydrogen group or a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group in the case that R 3 is a C1 to C3 alkyl group which may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the following substituent group α; “Substituent group α”
halogen atoms, —SH group, —SC(═NH)NH 2 group.
2. The pyrazole derivative or salt thereof according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is a C1 to C3 haloalkyl group.
3. The pyrazole derivative or salt thereof according to claim 1 , wherein R 3 is a C1 to C3 alkyl group and R 4 is a hydrogen atom.
4. The pyrazole derivative or salt thereof according to claim 1 , wherein R 3 is a methyl group which may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the substituent group α.
5. The pyrazole derivative or salt thereof according to claim 1 , wherein R 3 is a methyl group.
6. A process for producing a pyrazole derivative represented by the general formula [3], comprising a step of reacting a compound represented by the general formula [1] with a compound represented by the general formula [2]:
wherein R 1 represents a C1 to C6 alkyl group and R 2 represents a C1 to C3 haloakyl group, R 5 represents a C1 to C3 alkyl group, a phenyl group which may be substituted, or a benzyl group which may be substituted, and R 6 represents a C1 to C3 alkyl group.
