Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fine chemical technology, specifically to a prothioconazole derivative containing an epoxy group and its synthesis and detection method. Background Technology

[0002] Prothioconazole, a broad-spectrum triazole thione fungicide, is widely used in global agriculture for the control of fungal diseases in crops such as wheat and rice due to its high efficiency and low toxicity. Its chemical structure (as shown in Formula I) exhibits significant fungicidal activity by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol in fungi. However, during industrial production, the purity of raw materials, reaction conditions (such as temperature and catalyst residue), and post-processing can affect the synthesis of various new compounds. The presence of these compounds may affect the chemical stability of the active pharmaceutical ingredient and the homogeneity of the formulation, and may also introduce potential toxicity risks, threatening environmental and pesticide safety. Some compounds may have positive effects or be applied in other fields. Chinese patent application (publication number CN113788797A) discloses a desulfurized prothioconazole impurity, its synthesis method and application. The impurity is prepared by heating a triazole with formula (II) or formula (III) as raw material in the presence of an acid-binding agent.
