Design, synthesis and anti-tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) activity of 5-chloro-N-(4-cyano-1-aryl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-1-aryl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide derivatives.

ABSTRACT: A series of novel pyrazole amide derivatives 3a-3p which take TMV PC protein as the target has been designed and synthesized by the reactions of 5-chloro-1-aryl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids with 5-amino-1-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles. All the compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Preliminary bioassays indicated that all the compounds acted against the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) with different in vivo and in vitro modes at 500 ?g/mL and were found to possess promising activity. Especially, compound 3p showed the most potent biological activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) compared to ningnanmycin, and a molecular docking study was performed and the binding model revealed that the pyrazole amide moiety was tightly embedded in the binding sites of TMV PC (PDB code: 2OM3).
