Pyrazolidinedione and pyridazinone synthesis pathways: SyngentaRecent Research Landscape

Inefficient multi-step synthesis of complex herbicides increases production costs and chemical waste. These innovations engineer specific heterocyclic ring-closure pathways to improve isomeric purity and yield.

What technical problems is Syngenta addressing in Pyrazolidinedione and pyridazinone synthesis pathways?

Low regioselectivity in polyfunctionalized heterocycles

(6)evidences

Inconsistent positioning of substituents on phenyl and nicotinic rings leads to impure intermediates. Precise control over substitution patterns reduces byproduct formation and increases chemical yield.

Low industrial synthesis yields

(2)evidences

Low yields or complex multi-step requirements in producing substituted benzaldehyde and pyrazolidinedione intermediates. Streamlining these pathways reduces manufacturing costs and chemical waste in agrochemical production.
