  • Biopesticides have been defined as a form of pesticides based on microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses, nematodes, etc.) or natural products (compounds, such as metabolites, proteins, or extracts from biological or other natural sources) (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency: http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/biopesticides/). Biopesticides fall into two major classes, microbial and biochemical pesticides:
  • Microbial pesticides consist of bacteria, fungi or viruses (and often include the metabolites that bacteria and fungi produce). Entomopathogenic nematodes are also classified as microbial pesticides, even though they are multi-cellular.
  • Biochemical pesticides are naturally occurring substances that control pests or provide other crop protection uses as defined below, but are relatively non-toxic to mammals.
  • the total weight ratios of compositions comprising at least one microbial pesticide in the form of viable microbial cells including dormant forms can be determined using the amount of CFU of the respective microorganism to calculate the total weight of the respective active component with the following equation that 1 x 10 10 CFU equals one gram of total weight of the respective active component.
  • Colony forming unit is measure of viable microbial cells.

Description
The present invention relates to a fungicidal mixture comprising, as active components
1) at least one active compound of the formula I, or an N-oxide, or an agriculturally useful salt thereof,
Figure imgf000002_0001
wherein
R1 is CHF2, CN
R2 is selected from CN, CH3, CH(CH3)2, CH2CHCI2, CH2CH=CH2, CH2C(=CH2)CH3, CH2CCH;
X1 is selected from H, Br, F, CH3, CCH;
X2 is selected from H, F, Cl, CH3, CH2CH3, OCH3, CH2OCH3, OCHF2, cyclopropyl; and as component 1)
2) at least one active compound II selected from group consisting of: respiration inhibitors: azoxystrobin, pyraclostrobin, metyltetraprole, florylpicoxamid, metarylpicoxamid (A.2.6lc); boscalid, fluxapyroxad, isofetamid, pydiflumetofen, inpyrfluxam, fluindapyr, cyclobutrifluram, fluazinam; sterol biosynthesis inhibitors (SBI fungicides): difenoconazole, prothioconazole, mefentrifluconazole, methyl 2-[2-chloro-4-(4-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-2-hydroxy-3-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propanoate, methyl 2-[2-chloro-4-(4- chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-2-hydroxy-3-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propanoic acid; nucleic acid synthesis inhibitors: ipflufenoquin; inhibitors of amino acid and protein synthesis: pyrimethanil; signal transduction inhibitors: fludioxonil; inhibitors with Multi Site Action: sulfur, dithianon, Cu; cell wall synthesis inhibitors: tricyclazole; plant defence inducers: isotianil, prohexadione-calcium, phosphorous acid and its salts; unknown mode of action: dichlobentiazox, flumetylsulforim, tebufloquin, flufenoxadiazam; insecticidal compounds of unknown or uncertain mode of action: fluopyram; in a weight ratio 1 :15 to 15:1.
The invention also relates to the use of the mixture and to a method for controlling phytopathogenic harmful fungi using the mixture.
Practical agricultural experience has shown that the repeated and exclusive application of an individual active compound in the control of harmful fungi leads in many cases to a rapid selection of those fungus strains which have developed natural or adapted resistance against the active compound in question. Effective control of these fungi with the active compound in question is then no longer possible.
To reduce the risk of the selection of resistant fungus strains, mixtures of different active compounds are conventionally employed for controlling harmful fungi. By combining active compounds having different mechanisms of action, it is possible to ensure successful control over a relatively long period of time.
It is an object of the present invention to provide, with a view to effective resistance management and effective control of phytopathogenic harmful fungi, at application rates which are as low as possible, compositions, which, at a reduced total amount of active compounds applied, have improved activity against the harmful fungi (synergistic mixtures) and a broadened activty spectrum, in particular for certain indications.
We have accordingly found that this object is achieved by the compositions, defined herein, comprising at least one compound I and at least one compound II.
Moreover, we have found that simultaneous, that is joint or separate, application of a compound I and a compound II or successive application of a compound I and of compound II allows better control of harmful fungi than is possible with the individual compounds alone (synergistic mixtures). Compounds I and/or the compounds II can be present in different crystal modifications, which may differ in biological activity.
The term "compounds I” refers to compounds of formula I.
In the definitions of the variables given above, collective terms are used which are generally representative for the substituents in question. The term “Cn-Cm” indicates the number of carbon atoms possible in each case in the substituent or substituent moiety in question.
The scope of the present invention includes mixtures of the (R)- and (S)-isomers and the racemates of compounds I and/or II and /or III having one or more chiral centers. As a result of hindered rotation of asymmetrically substituted groups, atrope isomers of active compounds I and/or II and/or III may be present. They also form part of the subject matter of the invention. Compounds I and their preparation and their use as fungicidal ly active compounds have been described in WC2023/011958.
For example, the formation of a compound I from a compound of formula 2 is suitably conducted by alkylation or acylation in the presence of a base such as potassium or sodium lower alkoxide or hydride. Di-lower alkyl sulfates can also be used to effect said alkylation or acylation, as described in US 3,625,959.
The cyclic compounds of the formula 2 can be prepared from keto amine compound 1 by reaction with acetone (1a) in the presence of ammonium acetate. In some cases, the presence of an acid like p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH), pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate, sulfuric acid or acetic acid improves the yields (for precedents see for example in Chemistry Select (2018), 3(32), 9388-9392 and Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (2003), 1 (2), 367-372).
Figure imgf000004_0001
Compounds of the formula 1 are commercially available or can be accessed following the general pathway outlined in scheme 1 by oxidation of the amino alcohol 7 using for example manganese dioxide, as described in Inorganica Chimica Acta (2012), 382, 72-78, WC2000038618, CN107879989 A, Chinese Science Bulletin (2010), 55(25), 2817- 2819. Compounds of the formula 7 can be accessed via catalytic hydrogenation of the respective nitro alcohol 6 using RANEY®-nickel, as described in WC2000038618, Inorganica Chimica Acta (2012), 382, 72-78.
The 2-nitro alcohol 6 can be prepared from 4 by phenyl magnesium bromide-mediated iodine-magnesium exchange in ortho position to NO2 as described by Knochel and coworkers (Angew. Chem., Int. Ed., 2002, 41, 1610), and subsequent addition to commercially available benzaldehyde derivative 5.

The term "plant propagation material" is to be understood to denote all the generative parts of the plant, such as seeds; and vegetative plant materials, such as cuttings and tubers (e.g. potatoes), which can be used for the multiplication of the plant. This includes seeds, roots, fruits, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, shoots, sprouts and other parts of plants; including seedlings and young plants to be transplanted after germination or after emergence from soil.
Preferably, treatment of plant propagation materials with compounds I and compositions thereof, respectively, is used for controlling fungi on cereals, such as wheat, rye, barley and oats; rice, corn, cotton and soybeans.
According to the invention all of the above cultivated plants are understood to comprise all species, subspecies, variants, varieties and/or hybrids which belong to the respective cultivated plants, including but not limited to winter and spring varieties, in particular in cereals such as wheat and barley, as well as oilseed rape, e.g. winter wheat, spring wheat, winter barley etc, further including dwarf, semi-dwarf and full-dwarf varieties and/or hybrids with reduced height and thicker and shorter stems, e.g. short stature corn (also called ‘smart corn'), semi-dwarf wheat and dwarf rice.
Corn is also known as Indian corn or maize (Zea mays) which comprises all kinds of corn such as field corn and sweet corn. According to the invention all maize or corn subspecies and/or varieties are comprised, in particular flour corn (Zea mays var. amylacea), popcorn (Zea mays var. evert a), dent corn (Zea mays var. indentata), flint corn (Zea mays var. indurata), sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata and var. rugosa), waxy corn (Zea mays var. ceratina), amylomaize (high amylose Zea mays varieties), pod corn or wild maize (Zea mays var. tunicata) and striped maize (Zea mays var. japonica).
Most soybean cultivars are classifiable into indeterminate and determinate growth habit, whereas Glycine soja, the wild progenitor of soybean, is indeterminate (PNAS 2010, 107 (19) 8563-8568). The indeterminate growth habit (Maturity Group, MG 00 to MG 4.9) is characterized by a continuation of vegetative growth after flowering begins whereas determinate soybean varieties (MG 5 to MG 8) characteristically have finished most of their vegetative growth when flowering begins. According to the invention all soybean cultivars or varieties are comprised, in particular indeterminate and determinate cultivars or varieties.
The term "cultivated plants" is to be understood as including plants which have been modified by mutagenesis or genetic engineering to provide a new trait to a plant or to modify an already present trait. Mutagenesis includes random mutagenesis using X-rays or mutagenic chemicals, but also targeted mutagenesis to create mutations at a specific locus of a plant genome. Targeted mutagenesis frequently uses oligonucleotides or proteins like CRISPR/Cas, zinc-finger nucleases, TALENs or meganucleases. Genetic engineering usually uses recombinant DNA techniques to create modifications in a plant genome which under natural circumstances cannot readily be obtained by cross breeding, mutagenesis or natural recombination. Typically, one or more genes are integrated into the genome of a plant to add a trait or improve or modify a trait. These integrated genes are also referred to as transgenes, while plant comprising such transgenes are referred to as transgenic plants. The process of plant transformation usually produces several transformation events, wich differ in the genomic locus in which a transgene has been integrated. Plants comprising a specific transgene on a specific genomic locus are usually described as comprising a specific "event”, which is referred to by a specific event name. Traits which have been introduced in plants or have been modified include herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, increased yield and tolerance to abiotic conditions, like drought.
Herbicide tolerance has been created by using mutagenesis and genetic engineering. Plants which have been rendered tolerant to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor herbicides by mutagenesis and breeding are e.g. available under the name Clearfield®. Herbicide tolerance to glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D, dicamba, oxynil herbicides, like bromoxynil and ioxynil, sulfonylurea herbicides, ALS inhibitors and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors, like isoxaflutole and mesotrione, has been created via the use of transgenes.

It has been observed that populations of phytopathogenic fungi apparently consisting of non-resistant strains can readily develop resistance. The compounds can be applied under such conditions, too, to prevent the formation of resistance and the spread of resistant strains altogether. In this regard it is useful that they have strong activity also against non-resistant phytopathogenic fungi.
Fungicide-resistant strains of various phytopathgenic fungi have been reported, with strains resistant to one or more fungicides from various mode of action classes being observed by target-site mutations in the genes of the respective proteins (e.g. Qol (C3, according to FRAC convention, for details www.frac.info), quinone outside stigmatellin binding subsite inhibitors (QoSI; C8), and quinone inside inhibitors (Qil; C4): CytB target protein; sterol demethylaition (DMI, G1): Cyp51/Erg11; carboxylic acid amides (CAA, H5): CesA3; SDHI (C2): SdhB, SdhC and SdhD; dicarboximides (E3): Os-1 (including Bos1, Daf1 etc.); keto reductase inhibitors (KRI; Class III SBIs; G3): Erg27; and oxysterol binding protein inhibitors (OSBPI; F9): 0RP1.
Examples of mutation sites of genes encoding such target proteins resulting in the listed single amino acid exchanges, deletions or insertions in the respective target protein sequences conferring resistance against certain fungicides in phytopathogenic fungi are indicated in Table M (see also Pest Manag Sci 72(8) 2016: 1449-1459).

Thus, compounds I are particularly useful to control such fungicide-resistant strains of phytopathogenic fungi described in Table M. Such strains may have one or more resistances derived from one or more mutations of one or more genes encoding target proteins of various kinds of the fungicides including but not limited to the mutations listed in Table M and/or a resistance derived from an overexpression of the respective target protein.
In addition, certain strains of fungi may have developed so-called multidrug resistance eventually leading to a broad cross resistance to many structurally and functionally unrelated compounds. "Multidrug resistance” (MDR) also called "pleiotropic drug resistance” (PDR) describes a resistance phenomen usually caused by overexpression of certain membrane transporters, leading to an increased activity of efflux pump which export certain substrates, e.g., fungal toxins but also fungicidal compounds. Examples of such membrane transporters include ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters and Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) transporters. Overexpression of membrane transporters can be confirmed, e.g., by measuring an amount of the transporter protein or of the corresponding mRNA. The measured amount of mRNA may be, e.g., 2-fold, 5-fold, 20-fold, up to 100-fold or more, relative to the mRNA amount of the corresponding fungicide-sensitive wild-type fungus.
The compounds I of the present invention can be applied to control a plant disease that is caused by a multidrugresistant (MDR) fungus. The multidrug-resistant fungus may have in addition one or more resistances derived from one or more mutations of one or more genes encoding target proteins of various kinds of the fungicides including but not limited to the mutations listed in Table M and/or a resistance derived from an overexpression of the target protein. Thus, compounds I are also particularly useful to control such multidrug-resistant fungi.
The compounds I and compositions thereof, respectively, are also suitable for controlling harmful microorganisms in the protection of stored products or harvest, and in the protection of materials.
The term "stored products or harvest" is understood to denote natural substances of plant or animal origin and their processed forms for which long-term protection is desired. Stored products of plant origin, for example stalks, leafs, tubers, seeds, fruits or grains, can be protected in the freshly harvested state or in processed form, such as predried, moistened, comminuted, ground, pressed or roasted, which process is also known as post-harvest treatment. Also falling under the definition of stored products is timber, whether in the form of crude timber, such as construction timber, electricity pylons and barriers, or in the form of finished articles, such as furniture or objects made from wood. Stored products of animal origin are hides, leather, furs, hairs and alike. Preferably, "stored products" is understood to denote natural substances of plant origin and their processed forms, more preferably fruits and their processed forms, such as pomes, stone fruits, soft fruits and citrus fruits and their processed forms, where application of compounds I and compositions thereof can also prevent disadvantageous effects such as decay, discoloration or mold.
The term "protection of materials" is to be understood to denote the protection of technical and non-living materials, such as adhesives, glues, wood, paper, paperboard, textiles, leather, paint dispersions, plastics, cooling lubricants, fiber, or fabrics against the infestation and destruction by harmful microorganisms, such as fungi and bacteria.
When used in the protection of materials or stored products, the amount of active substance applied depends on the kind of application area and on the desired effect. Amounts customarily applied in the protection of materials are 0.001 g to 2 kg, preferably 0.005 g to 1 kg, of active substance per cubic meter of treated material.
The compounds I and compositions thereof, respectively, may be used for improving the health of a plant. The invention also relates to a method for improving plant health by treating a plant, its propagation material, and/or the locus where the plant is growing or is to grow with an effective amount of compounds I and compositions thereof, respectively.
The term "plant health" is to be understood to denote a condition of the plant and/or its products which is determined by several indicators alone or in combination with each other, such as yield (e.g. increased biomass and/or increased content of valuable ingredients), plant vigor (e.g. improved plant growth and/or greener leaves ("greening effect”)), quality (e.g. improved content or composition of certain ingredients), and tolerance to abiotic and/or biotic stress. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or may result from each other. The compounds I are employed as such or in form of compositions by treating the fungi, the plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds; soil, surfaces, materials, or rooms to be protected from fungal attack with a fungicidally effective amount of the active substances. The application can be carried out both before and after the infection of the plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds; soil, surfaces, materials or rooms by the fungi.
An agrochemical composition comprises a fungicidally effective amount of a compound I. The term "fungicidally effective amount" denotes an amount of the composition or of the compounds I, which is sufficient for controlling harmful fungi on cultivated plants or in the protection of stored products or harvest or of materials and which does not result in a substantial damage to the treated plants, the treated stored products or harvest, or to the treated materials. Such an amount can vary in a broad range and is dependent on various factors, such as the fungal species to be controlled, the treated cultivated plant, stored product, harvest or material, the climatic conditions and the specific compound I used.
Plant propagation materials may be treated with compounds I as such or a composition comprising at least one compound I prophylactically either at or before planting or transplanting.
When employed in plant protection, the amounts of active substances applied are, depending on the kind of effect desired, from 0.001 to 2 kg per ha, preferably from 0.005 to 2 kg per ha, more preferably from 0.05 to 0.9 kg per ha, and in particular from 0.1 to 0.75 kg per ha.
In treatment of plant propagation materials such as seeds, e.g. by dusting, coating, or drenching, amounts of active substance of generally from 0.1 to 1000 g, preferably from 1 to 1000 g, more preferably from 1 to 100 g and most preferably from 5 to 100 g, per 100 kg of plant propagation material (preferably seeds) are required.
The user applies the agrochemical composition usually from a predosage device, a knapsack sprayer, a spray tank, a spray plane, or an irrigation system. Usually, the agrochemical composition is made up with water, buffer, and/or further auxiliaries to the desired application concentration and the ready-to-use spray liquor or the agrochemical composition according to the invention is thus obtained. Usually, 20 to 2000 liters, preferably 50 to 400 liters, of the ready-to-use spray liquor are applied per hectare of agricultural useful area.
The compounds I, their N-oxides and salts can be converted into customary types of agrochemical compositions, e.g. solutions, emulsions, suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes, granules, pressings, capsules, and mixtures thereof.

A pesticide is generally a chemical or biological agent (such as pestidal active ingredient, compound, composition, virus, bacterium, antimicrobial, or disinfectant) that through its effect deters, incapacitates, kills or otherwise discourages pests. Target pests can include insects, plant pathogens, weeds, mollusks, birds, mammals, fish, nematodes (roundworms), and microbes that destroy property, cause nuisance, spread disease or are vectors for disease. The term "pesticide” includes also plant growth regulators that alter the expected growth, flowering, or reproduction rate of plants; defoliants that cause leaves or other foliage to drop from a plant, usually to facilitate harvest; desiccants that promote drying of living tissues, such as unwanted plant tops; plant activators that activate plant physiology for defense of against certain pests; safeners that reduce unwanted herbicidal action of pesticides on crop plants; and plant growth promoters that affect plant physiology e.g. to increase plant growth, biomass, yield or any other quality parameter of the harvestable goods of a crop plant.
Biopesticides have been defined as a form of pesticides based on microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses, nematodes, etc.) or natural products (compounds, such as metabolites, proteins, or extracts from biological or other natural sources) (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency: http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/biopesticides/). Biopesticides fall into two major classes, microbial and biochemical pesticides:
(1) Microbial pesticides consist of bacteria, fungi or viruses (and often include the metabolites that bacteria and fungi produce). Entomopathogenic nematodes are also classified as microbial pesticides, even though they are multi-cellular.
(2) Biochemical pesticides are naturally occurring substances that control pests or provide other crop protection uses as defined below, but are relatively non-toxic to mammals.
The total weight ratios of compositions comprising at least one microbial pesticide in the form of viable microbial cells including dormant forms, can be determined using the amount of CFU of the respective microorganism to calculate the total weight of the respective active component with the following equation that 1 x 1010 CFU equals one gram of total weight of the respective active component. Colony forming unit is measure of viable microbial cells. In addition, CFU may also be understood as the number of (juvenile) individual nematodes in case of nematode biopesticides, such as Steinernema feltiae. In the binary mixtures the weight ratio of the component 1) and the component 2) generally depends from the properties of the components used, usually it is in the range of from 1:10,000 to 10,000:1, often from 1:100 to 100:1, regularly from 1:50 to 50:1, preferably from 1:20 to 20:1, more preferably from 1:10 to 10:1, even more preferably from 1 :4 to 4: 1 and in particular from 1 :2 to 2: 1. According to further embodiments, the weight ratio of the component
1) and the component 2) usually is in the range of from 1000:1 to 1:1, often from 100: 1 to 1:1, regularly from 50:1 to 1:1, preferably from 20:1 to 1:1, more preferably from 10:1 to 1:1, even more preferably from 4:1 to 1:1 and in particular from 2:1 to 1:1.

The method of treatment according to the invention can also be used in the field of protecting stored products or harvest against attack of fungi and microorganisms. According to the present invention, the term "stored products" is understood to denote natural substances of plant or animal origin and their processed forms, which have been taken from the natural life cycle and for which long-term protection is desired. Stored products of crop plant origin, such as plants or parts thereof, for example stalks, leafs, tubers, seeds, fruits or grains, can be protected in the freshly harvested state or in processed form, such as pre-dried, moistened, comminuted, ground, pressed or roasted, which process is also known as post-harvest treatment. Also falling under the definition of stored products is timber, whether in the form of crude timber, such as construction timber, electricity pylons and barriers, or in the form of finished articles, such as furniture or objects made from wood. Stored products of animal origin are hides, leather, furs, hairs and the like. The combinations according the present invention can prevent disadvantageous effects such as decay, discoloration or mold. Preferably "stored products" is understood to denote natural substances of plant origin and their processed forms, more preferably fruits and their processed forms, such as pomes, stone fruits, soft fruits and citrus fruits and their processed forms.
The compounds of formula I can be present in different crystal modifications whose biological activity may differ. They are likewise subject matter of the present invention.
The compounds I are employed as such or in form of compositions by treating the fungi or the plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, soil, surfaces, materials or rooms to be protected from fungal attack with a fungicidally effective amount of the active substances. The application can be carried out both before and after the infection of the plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, soil, surfaces, materials or rooms by the fungi.
Plant propagation materials may be treated with compounds I as such or a composition comprising at least one compound I prophylactically either at or before planting or transplanting.
The invention also relates to agrochemical compositions comprising an auxiliary and at least one compound I according to the invention.
An agrochemical composition comprises a fungicidally effective amount of a compound I. The term "effective amount" denotes an amount of the composition or of the compounds I, which is sufficient for controlling harmful fungi on cultivated plants or in the protection of materials and which does not result in a substantial damage to the treated plants. Such an amount can vary in a broad range and is dependent on various factors, such as the fungal species to be controlled, the treated cultivated plant or material, the climatic conditions and the specific compound I used.
The compounds I, their N-oxides and salts can be converted into customary types of agrochemical compositions, e. g. solutions, emulsions, suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes, granules, pressings, capsules, and mixtures thereof. Examples for composition types are suspensions (e. g. SC, CD, FS), emulsifiable concentrates (e. g. EC), emulsions (e. g. EW, EC, ES, ME), capsules (e. g. CS, ZC), pastes, pastilles, wettable powders or dusts (e. g. WP, SP, WS, DP, DS), pressings (e. g. BR, TB, DT), granules (e. g. WG, SG, GR, FG, GG, MG), insecticidal articles (e. g. LN), as well as gel formulations for the treatment of plant propagation materials such as seeds (e. g. GF).

5-20 wt% of a compound I are added to 5-30 wt% organic solvent blend (e. g. fatty acid dimethyl amide and cyclohexanone), 10-25 wt% surfactant blend (e. g. alcohol ethoxylate and arylphenol ethoxylate), and water ad 100 %. This mixture is stirred for 1 h to produce spontaneously a thermodynamically stable microemulsion. x) Microcapsules (CS)
An oil phase comprising 5-50 wt% of a compound I, 0-40 wt% water insoluble organic solvent (e. g. aromatic hydrocarbon), 2-15 wt% acrylic monomers (e. g. methylmethacrylate, methacrylic acid and a di- or triacrylate) are dispersed into an aqueous solution of a protective colloid (e. g. polyvinyl alcohol). Radical polymerization results in the formation of poly(meth)acrylate microcapsules. Alternatively, an oil phase comprising 5-50 wt% of a compound I according to the invention, 0-40 wt% water insoluble organic solvent (e. g. aromatic hydrocarbon), and an isocyanate monomer (e. g. diphenylmethene-4,4'-diisocyanatae) are dispersed into an aqueous solution of a protective colloid (e. g. polyvinyl alcohol). The addition of a polyamine (e. g. hexamethylenediamine) results in the formation of polyurea microcapsules. The monomers amount to 1-10 wt%. The wt% relate to the total CS composition. xi) Dustable powders (DP, DS)
1-10 wt% of a compound I are ground finely and mixed intimately with solid carrier (e. g. finely divided kaolin) ad 100 wt%. xii) Granules (GR, FG)
0.5-30 wt% of a compound I is ground finely and associated with solid carrier (e. g. silicate) ad 100 wt%. Granulation is achieved by extrusion, spray-drying or fluidized bed. xiii) Ultra-low volume liquids (UL)
1-50 wt% of a compound I are dissolved in organic solvent (e. g. aromatic hydrocarbon) ad 100 wt%.
The compositions types i) to xiii) may optionally comprise further auxiliaries, such as 0.1-1 wt% bactericides, 5-15 wt% anti-freezing agents, 0.1-1 wt% anti-foaming agents, and 0.1-1 wt% colorants.
The agrochemical compositions generally comprise between 0.01 and 95%, preferably between 0.1 and 90%, more preferably between 1 and 70%, and in particular between 10 and 60%, by weight of active substance. The active substances are employed in a purity of from 90% to 100%, preferably from 95% to 100% (according to NMR spectrum).
For the purposes of treatment of plant propagation materials, particularly seeds, solutions for seed treatment (LS), Suspoemulsions (SE), flowable concentrates (FS), powders for dry treatment (DS), water-dispersible powders for slurry treatment (WS), water-soluble powders (SS), emulsions (ES), emulsifiable concentrates (EC), and gels (GF) are usually employed. The compositions in question give, after two-to-tenfold dilution, active compound concentrations of from 0.01 to 60% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 40%, in the ready-to-use preparations. Application can be carried out before or during sowing. Methods for applying compound I and compositions thereof, respectively, onto plant propagation material, especially seeds, include dressing, coating, pelleting, dusting, and soaking as well as in-furrow application methods. Preferably, compound I or the compositions thereof, respectively, are applied on to the plant propagation material by a method such that germination is not induced, e. g. by seed dressing, pelleting, coating and dusting.
When employed in plant protection, the amounts of active substances applied are, depending on the kind of effect desired, from 0.001 to 2 kg per ha, preferably from 0.005 to 2 kg per ha, more preferably from 0.05 to 0.9 kg per ha, and in particular from 0.1 to 0.75 kg per ha.
In treatment of plant propagation materials such as seeds, e. g. by dusting, coating or drenching seed, amounts of active compound of from 0.1 to 1000 g, preferably from 1 to 1000 g, more preferably from 1 to 100 g and most preferably from 5 to 100 g, per 100 kilogram of plant propagation material (preferably seeds) are generally required.
When used in the protection of materials or stored products, the amount of active compound applied depends on the kind of application area and on the desired effect. Amounts customarily applied in the protection of materials are 0.001 g to 2 kg, preferably 0.005 g to 1 kg, of active compound per cubic meter of treated material.
Various types of oils, wetters, adjuvants, fertilizer, or micronutrients, and further pesticides (e. g. herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, growth regulators, safeners, biopesticides) may be added to the active substances or the compositions comprising them as premix or, if appropriate not until immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents can be admixed with the compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1 :100 to 100:1, preferably 1 :10 to 10:1.
A pesticide is generally a chemical or biological agent (such as pestidal active ingredient, compound, composition, virus, bacterium, antimicrobial or disinfectant) that through its effect deters, incapacitates, kills or otherwise discourages pests. Target pests can include insects, plant pathogens, weeds, mollusks, birds, mammals, fish, nematodes (roundworms), and microbes that destroy property, cause nuisance, spread disease or are vectors for disease. The term "pesticide” includes also plant growth regulators that alter the expected growth, flowering, or reproduction rate of plants; defoliants that cause leaves or other foliage to drop from a plant, usually to facilitate harvest; desiccants that promote drying of living tissues, such as unwanted plant tops; plant activators that activate plant physiology for defense of against certain pests; safeners that reduce unwanted herbicidal action of pesticides on crop plants; and plant growth promoters that affect plant physiology e.g. to increase plant growth, biomass, yield or any other quality parameter of the harvestable goods of a crop plant.
The user applies the composition according to the invention usually from a predosage device, a knapsack sprayer, a spray tank, a spray plane, or an irrigation system. Usually, the agrochemical composition is made up with water, buffer, and/or further auxiliaries to the desired application concentration and the ready-to-use spray liquor or the agrochemical composition according to the invention is thus obtained. Usually, 20 to 2000 liters, preferably 50 to 400 liters, of the ready-to-use spray liquor are applied per hectare of agricultural useful area.
According to one embodiment, individual components of the composition according to the invention such as parts of a kit or parts of a binary or ternary mixture may be mixed by the user himself in a spray tank or any other kind of vessel used for applications (e. g. seed treater drums, seed pelleting machinery, knapsack sprayer) and further auxiliaries may be added, if appropriate.
Consequently, one embodiment of the invention is a kit for preparing a usable pesticidal composition, the kit comprising a) a composition comprising component 1) as defined herein and at least one auxiliary; and b) a composition comprising component 2) as defined herein and at least one auxiliary; and optionally c) a composition comprising at least one auxiliary and optionally a further active component 3) as defined herein.
Mixing the compounds I or the compositions comprising them in the use form as fungicides with other fungicides results in many cases in an expansion of the fungicidal spectrum of activity being obtained or in a prevention of fungicide resistance development. Furthermore, in many cases, synergistic effects are obtained.
The present invention furthermore relates to agrochemical compositions comprising a mixture of at least one compound I (component 1) and at least one further active compound useful for plant protection, e. g. selected from the groups A) to O) (component 2), in particular one further fungicide, e. g. one or more fungicide from the groups A) to K), as described above, and if desired one suitable solvent or solid carrier. Those mixtures are of particular interest, since many of them at the same application rate show higher efficiencies against harmful fungi.
Furthermore, combating harmful fungi with a mixture of compounds I and at least one fungicide from groups A) to K), as described above, is more efficient than combating those fungi with individual compounds I or individual fungicides from groups A) to K).
By applying compounds I together with at least one active compound from groups A) to O) a synergistic effect can be obtained, i.e. more than simple addition of the individual effects is obtained (synergistic mixtures).
This can be obtained by applying the compounds I and at least one further active compound simultaneously, either jointly (e. g. as tank-mix) or seperately, or in succession, wherein the time interval between the individual applications is selected to ensure that the active compound applied first still occurs at the site of action in a sufficient amount at the time of application of the further active substance(s). The order of application is not essential for working of the present invention.
When applying compound I and a pesticide II sequentially the time between both applications may vary e. g. between 2 hours to 7 days. Also a broader range is possible ranging from 0.25 hour to 30 days, preferably from 0.5 hour to 14 days, particularly from 1 hour to 7 days or from 1 .5 hours to 5 days, even more preferred from 2 hours to 1 day.
In the binary mixtures and compositions according to the invention the weight ratio of the component 1) and the component 2) generally depends from the properties of the active components used, usually it is in the range of from 1:10000 to 10000:1, often it is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1, regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1, preferably in the range of from 1:20 to 20:1, more preferably in the range of from 1 :5 to 5:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :2 to 2:1.
According to a further embodiment of the binary mixtures and compositions, the weight ratio of the component 1) and the component 2) usually is in the range of from 1000:1 to 1 :1, often in the range of from 100: 1 to 1:1, regularly in the range of from 50:1 to 1 :1, preferably in the range of from 20:1 to 1 :1, more preferably in the range of from 5:1 to 1:1 and in particular in the range of from 2:1 to 1 :1.
According to a further embodiments of the binary mixtures and compositions, the weight ratio of the component 1) and the component 2) usually is in the range of from 1 :1 to 1 :1000, often in the range of from 1 :1 to 1 :100, regularly in the range of from 1:1 to 1 :50, preferably in the range of from 1 :1 to 1 :20, more preferably in the range of from 1 :1 to 1 :5 and in particular in the range of from 1 : 1 to 1 :2.
In the ternary mixtures, i.e. compositions according to the invention comprising the component 1) and component 2) and a compound III (component s), the weight ratio of component 1) and component s) is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1, regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1, preferably in the range of from 1:20 to 20:1, more preferably in the range of from 1 :5 to 5:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :2 to 2:1, and the weight ratio of component 1) and component s) is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1, regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1, preferably in the range of from 1 :20 to 20:1, more preferably in the range of from 1 :5 to 5:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :2 to 2:1.
Any further active components are, if desired, added in a ratio of from 20:1 to 1 :20 to the component 1).
These ratios are also suitable for inventive mixtures applied by seed treatment.
The fungicidal action of the mixtures according to the invention can be shown by the tests described below.
The visually determined percentages of infected leaf areas are converted into efficacies in % of the untreated control.
The efficacy (E) is calculated as follows using Abbot's formula: E = (1 - a/p) ■ 100 a corresponds to the fungicidal infection of the treated plants in % and p corresponds to the fungicidal infection of the untreated (control) plants in %
An efficacy of 0 means that the infection level of the treated plants corresponds to that of the untreated control plants; an efficacy of 100 means that the treated plants were not infected.
The expected efficacies of active compound combinations may be determined using Colby's formula (Colby, S.R. "Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations", Weeds, 15, pp. 20-22, 1967) and compared with the observed efficacies.
Colby's formula:
E = x+y - x /100
