The reaction of 4-(alkyl/cycloalkylthio)-1<em>H</em>-pyrazoles with magnesium bis(monoperoxyphthalate)hexahydrate (MMPP) as an oxidizing agent afforded the corresponding 4-(alkyl/cycloalkylsulfonyl)-1,3-disubstituted-1<em>H</em>-pyrazoles in 85–95% yield. This method's benefits include its straightforward operation, simple workup, and use of an inexpensive, halogen-free MMPP oxidant that is easy to use and reasonably stable. All synthesized pyrazolyl sulfones were examined against bacterial and fungal strains, and notable antimicrobial activity was demonstrated by a few of the compounds. In order to investigate the prospect of connecting compounds with the highest yield and antimicrobial activity with their opto-electronic properties, time-resolved photoluminescence investigations for compounds <strong>5a</strong>, <strong>5b</strong>, and <strong>5d</strong> were conducted. The tunable spectrum was observed in the micro-second time domain in all three cases, with fluorescent lifetime found higher in the compound having methyl group, intermediate with phenyl group, and lowest with the p-nitrophenyl group. Our procedures will encourage additional research into the valuable properties of pyrazolyl sulfones now that they are widely available with the structural complexity illustrated here.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":17081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sulfur Chemistry","volume":"45 5","pages":"Pages 771-785"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141650482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
