In order to develop a novel herbicide containing the β-triketone motif, a series of 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. The bioassay results showed that compound II15 had good pre-emergent herbicidal activity even at a dosage of 187.5 g ha-1. Moreover, compound II15 showed a broader spectrum of weed control when compared with a commercial herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and displayed good crop safety to Triticum aestivum L. and Zea mays Linn. when applied at 375 g ha-1 under pre-emergence conditions, which indicated its great potential as a herbicide. More importantly, studying the molecular mode of action of compound II15 revealed that the novel triketone structure is a proherbicide of its corresponding phenoxyacetic acid auxin herbicide, which has a herbicidal mechanism similar to that of 2,4-D. The present work indicates that the 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one motif may be a potential lead structure for further development of novel auxin-type herbicides.

Convenient and efficient procedures have been developed for the synthesis of tris(2-hydroxyethyl)-ammonium 4-halo-2-methylphenoxyacetates (halocresacins). 4-Chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid necessary for the preparation of chlorocresacin has been obtained by chlorination of 2-methylphenoxyacetic acid with sulfuryl chloride in the presence of aluminum powder. Bromocresacin has been synthesized by reaction of triethanolamine with 4-bromo-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid prepared by bromination of 2-methylphenoxyacetic acid with molecular bromine. Fluoro- and iodocresacins have been synthesized by exchange reaction of chlorocresacin with potassium fluoride and sodium iodide, respectively.
