A series of novel acylpyrazole derivatives containing 1,2,3‐thiadiazole ring 3a–3m were synthesized by the condensations of 1‐phenyl‐3‐methyl‐4‐(substituted benzal or 4‐methyl‐1,2,3‐thiadiazole‐5‐carbonyl)‐5‐hydroxypyrazole 2 with 4‐methyl‐1,2,3‐thiadiazole‐5‐carbonyl chloride or substituted benzoyl chloride. Their structures were confirmed by IR, 1H‐NMR, mass spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The results of preliminary bioassays showed that some of the title compounds 3 exhibited moderate to good herbicidal activities against dicotyledonous plants (Brassica campestris L.) at the concentration of 100 mg/L. For example, compounds 3e, 3f, 3g, and 3k possessed 74.6%, 72.2%, 70.3%, and 84.5% inhibition against B. campestris L., respectively, whereas commercially available herbicide Sulcotrione showed only 35.0% inhibition at the same concentration. Moreover, these compounds displayed higher herbicidal activity against B. campestris L. than Echinochloa crus‐galli. However, these compounds showed weak activities at the concentration of 10 mg/L.
