TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preparation (Disclosed): Preparation of pyrazol-4-yl-carboxylic acid amides compound (I) involves reacting an amino alcohol compound for formula NH2-(R1)C(R3)-CH2-OH (II') with halo derivative of formula A'-C(=O)-Hal (III'),in the presence of a base e.g. triethylamine, Hunig base, and in solvent e.g. diethylether, dichloromethane for 12-24 hours at 0 degrees C and reflux, followed by nucleophilic substitution reaction with compound of formula Hal-CH2-B'(IV') in the presence of base e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, and in solvent e.g. dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylsulfoxice (DMSO) for 12-24 hours at 0 degrees C and reflux, to give compound (I) (where G'is (CH2)2O).Hal=halogen. Preferred Definitions:    R10=difluoromethyl or trifluoromethyl;    G'=(CH2)2 ,(CH2)3 and CH2OCH2;    R1=H;    R2=H or methyl;    R9=methyl;    R11=H.    ACTIVITY - Fungicide; Antibacterial; Virucide. The efficacy of 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid(2-(2,6-dichloro-benzyloxy)-1-methyl-ethyl)-amide (Ia) was evaluated for fungicide activity using fungal growth assay on Monographella nivalis; and inhibition growth was measured. (Ia) Showed inhibition growth of 50%.    MECHANISM OF ACTION - None given.    ADMINISTRATION - The compound is administered at the rate of 5 g to 2 kg (preferably 10 g to 1 kg, especially 20 g to 600 g)/hectare, by spraying, atomizing, dusting, scattering, coating or pouring.    SPECIFIC COMPOUNDS - 260 Compounds are disclosed as compound (I) e.g. 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid(1-methyl-3-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl)-amide (I'), 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid(1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-butyl)-amide, 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid(2-(2,6-dichloro-benzyloxy)-1-methyl-ethyl)-amide, 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (2-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-amide, 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (3-(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)-1-methyl-propyl)-amide.    EXAMPLE - To suspension of 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (190 mg) in dichloromethane (10 ml) under nitrogen environment few drops of dimethylformamide (DMF) was added to make a clear solution. 1-hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate (HOBT) (248 mg) was added at ambient temperature and after 20 minutes 1-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (EDCI) (310 mg) was added to the above solution maintained at 0-5 degrees C. After 30 minutes 1-methyl-3-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propylamine (300 mg), followed by catalytic amount of dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Reaction mixture was kept at ambient temperature for 3 hours for completion. After workup, 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid(1-methyl-3-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl)-amide (0.14 g, yield 50%) was obtained.
