Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylic acid derivatives.
Compounds for use against phytopathogenic fungi are already known. Compounds in use of this kind are for instance manganeseethylene-bisdithiocarbamate (U.S. Pat. No. 2,504,404), N-trichloromethylmercaptotetrahydro-phthalimide and N-trichloromethylmercapto-phthalimide (U.S. Pat. No. 2,553,770, U.S. Pat. No. 2,553,771, U.S. Pat. No. 2,553,776), tetrachloroisophthalodinitrile (U.S. Pat. No. 3,290,353, U.S. Pat. No. 3,331,735) as well as mercury-organic compositions.
Agents for simultaneous use against nematodes and pathogenic soil fungi are likewise known, for instance sodium N-methyldithiocarbamate (British Pat. No. 789,690).
The object of the present invention is to provide agents of superior activity or other superior properties which have simultaneously fungicidal and nematocidal effects.
ESSENCE OF THE INVENTION
The compounds of the invention have the formula ##STR2## wherein R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkinyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkyl,
R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkoxycarbonyl, aminocarbonyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkylaminocarbonyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkylaminocarbonyl, di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkylaminocarbonyl, cyclohexylmethylaminocarbonyl, alkoxyalkylaminocarbonyl, morpholinocarbonyl, pyrrolidinocarbonyl, piperidinocarbonyl or cyano and
n is 0, 1 or 2.
The compounds of the invention wherein n is 1 or 2 have a surprisingly broad spectrum of activity against phytopathogenic fungi, superior to prior art agents of the type above listed. They also have a good compatibility with agricultural plants and an adequate duration of their activity. They have furthermore the advantage that they are also effective against nematodes in which case they can be used, contrary to the prior art nematocidal compounds, without a waiting time between their use and the planting period because of their high plant compatibility. Thus, they permit a problem-free action against pests. A further advantage is that compared to the toxicologically objectionable mercury compounds they are environmentally acceptable.
Due to these properties the compounds of the invention can be used both in agricultural operations and in horticulture for treatment of the soil or for application to the leaves, etc.
The compounds of the invention wherein n is 1 or 2 have a superior activity against a large number of noxious fungi such as for instance Pythium ultimum, Penicillium digitatum, Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria solani, Fusarium avenaceum, Tilletia caries, Helminthosporium gramineum, Ustilago avenae, Piricularia oryzae and others.
The nematocidal activity is also effective against many genera of nematodes, for instance Meloidogyne sp., Rotylenchus, Pratylenchus, Tylenchorhynchus and others.
In the above formula I, R should preferably be methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, sec.-butyl, tert.-butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, isohexyl, 2-propenyl, 2-propinyl, cyclopropyl and cyclohexyl.
R.sub.1 preferably should be methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl, aminocarbonyl, methylaminocarbonyl, butylaminocarbonyl, dimethylaminocarbonyl, cyclopropylaminocarbonyl, propylaminocarbonyl, isopropylaminocarbonyl, (N-butyl-N-methyl)-aminocarbonyl, (2-methoxyethyl)-aminocarbonyl, (3-methoxypropyl)-aminocarbonyl and cyano.
The compounds of the invention can either be used individually or intermixed with each other or intermixed with other active agents. If desired, other fungicidal, nematocidal or insecticidal compounds or other pesticides may be used depending on the specific purpose.
The compounds may be used in the form of compositions such as powders, dusting agents, granulates, solutions, emulsions or suspensions. There should then be added liquid and/or solid carrier materials or diluents and if desired surface active agents.
Suitable liquid carrier materials are water, mineral oils, or other organic solvents such as xylene, chlorobenzene, cyclohexanol, dioxane, acetonitrile, acetic ester, dimethylformamide, isophoron and dimethylsulfoxide.
As solid carrier materials there may be used lime, kaolin, chalk, talc, attaclay and other clays as well as natural or synthetic silicic acid.
If surface active agents are added they may for instance be salts of lignosulfonic acids, salts of alkylated benzoesulfonic acids, sulfonic acid amides and their salts, polyethoxyamines and alcohols.
If the agents are used for seed treatment there may be added dyestuffs in order to give the treated seed material a distinct coloration.
The fraction of the active agent or agents can be varied within a broad range. The particular concentration of the agents depends mainly on the amount of agent actually employed. For instance the total compositions may contain about 1 to 95% by weight, preferably 20 to 50% by weight, of active agent or agents and about 99 to 5% by weight of liquid or solid carrier materials. Part of the carrier materials may be replaced by up to 20% by weight of surface active agents.
The compositions may be applied in conventional form, for instance by spraying, dusting, fogging, gasifying, smoke formation, spreading, pouring or otherwise.
PROCESS OF MAKING THE PREFERRED COMPOUNDS
(n=1 or 2)
The compounds of the invention wherein n is 1 or 2 can be formed in various ways.
(A) Compounds of the formula ##STR3## in which R and R.sub.1 have the same meaning as in the above formula I and n is 0, are treated with oxidizing agents, preferably organic hydroperoxides, per-acids or inorganic oxidizing agents, in equimolar amounts dissolved in an inert solvent.
(B) Compounds of the invention wherein R.sub.1 is a carboxylic acid amide residue can be made by reacting the compounds of the above formula II wherein, however, R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkoxycarbonyl with a suitable amine followed by treatment with an oxidizing agent as under A.
(C) If the compounds of formula I are intended to be of the type wherein R.sub.1 is cyano they can be made by treating compounds of the above formula II wherein R.sub.1 is aminocarbonyl with a dehydration agent followed by treatment with an oxidizing agent as described above at A.
(D) If the compounds of the invention are intended to be of the type wherein R.sub.1 is a carboxylamide residue they can be made by reacting compounds of the formula
R.sub.1 "--CO--NH--NH.sub.2,
wherein R.sub.1 " constitutes a carboxylic amide residue as listed with carbondisulfide in the presence of a base so as to form a compound of the formula
R.sub.1 "--CO--NH--NH--CS--S.sup.(-) Me.sup.(+).
The latter product is then reacted with an alkylating agent to form a compound of the formula
R.sub.1 "--CO--NH--NH--CS--S--R
whereupon it is treated with a dehydration agent and an oxidizing agent in order to obtain the desired compounds of the invention.
(E) If compounds are wanted of the type of formula I in which R.sub.1 is a carboxylic acid residue, the proceeding could be as follows: a compound of the formula
H.sub.2 N--NH--CS--S.sup.(-) Me.sup.(+)
is reacted with an alkylating agent to form a compound of the formula
H.sub.2 N--NH--CS--S--R.
The latter reaction product is then treated with a compound of the formula
R.sub.1 --CO--CO--Cl
in which R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkoxycarbonyl so as to form a carboxylic acid derivative of the above formula II, the reaction being carried out under dehydrating conditions. The last obtained reaction product is then treated with an oxidizing agent as stated above at A.
In all these compounds R and R.sub.1 have the meaning as in Formula I except as stated and Me.sup.(+) is a cation of an organic or inorganic base.
II. PROCESS FOR MAKING THE COMPOUNDS USED AS STARTING PRODUCTS BUT ALSO AS FINAL PRODUCTS
(n=0)
The compounds of the formula I wherein n is 0 and which have not been disclosed heretofore can be made as follows:
Compounds of the formula
R.sub.1 '--CO--NH--NH.sub.2
in which R.sub.1 ' is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkoxycarbonyl are reacted with carbon disulfide in the presence of a base so as to form a compound of the formula
R.sub.1 '--CO--NH--NH--CS--S.sup.(-) Me.sup.(+).
The latter reaction product is then reacted with a dehydration agent so as to form a compound of the formula ##STR4## The latter compounds are subjected to the action of an alkylating agent, if desired in the presence of a base. There are thus formed the desired compounds of the formula ##STR5## The latter may be further reacted with suitable amines to form compounds of the formula ##STR6## In all of these formulas R and R.sub.1 have the meaning as in formula I unless otherwise indicated, Me.sup.(+) is the cation of an inorganic or organic base and R.sub.1 " is a carboxylic amide residue or a cyano group.
III. DETAILS OF THE PROCESS OF MAKING
In order to make the compounds of the invention in which in the general formula I n=1 there may be used as oxidizing agents organic hydroperoxides such as tert.-butylhydroperoxide, or per-acids, such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid, or N-halogeno acid amides like N-bromosuccinimide. Inorganic oxidizing agents, such as hydrogen peroxide and sodium metaperiodate may also be used. Preferably two oxidation equivalents of the oxidizing agents or a small excess are employed per mol of thio compound at temperatures of about 0.degree. to 60.degree. C.
In order to make the compounds of the formula I in which n is 2 it is possible in addition to the just named oxidizing agents to use also agents such as chlorine, potassium permanganate, chromic acid and their salts or nitric acid and the temperature range of 0.degree. to 120.degree. C. Preferably, there are used four oxidation equivalents or a slight excess above it per mol of thio compound. In other words, there are used about twice the amount of oxidizing agents as employed for the above-described sulfoxidation as in the case where n is 1.
The reaction in general can be carried out at temperatures between -30.degree. and 120.degree. C. These temperatures should be used during the oxidation reactions.
For the synthesis of the compounds of the invention the reactants are used in about equimolar amounts. This is otherwise in case of the dehydration reaction in which a large excess of the water extracting agent is preferred.
As reaction media there may be used solvents which are inert towards the reactants. They may be used as such or in mixture with water. Their selection dependson conventional considerations having in mind the specific purpose of the reaction. As solvents or suspension agents there may be used: carboxylic acids such as acetic acid, carboxylic amides, such as dimethylformamide; carboxylic acid nitriles, such as acetonitrile; alcohols, such as methanol; ethers, such as dioxane, and many others.
If it is considered advisable there may be used as inorganic or organic bases, oxides and hydroxides of the alkali or alkali earth metals, for instance sodium or potassium hydroxide or tertiary amines, such as triethylamine or N,N-dimethylaniline.
Suitable alkylating agents are for instance alkyl halides, preferably iodides and bromides, as well as esters of sulfuric acid, such as dimethylsulfate or esters of aromatic sulfonic acids, such as methyltosylate.
Suitable dehydration agents are particularly inorganic agents, such as mineral acids, for instance concentrated sulfuric acid or polyphosphoric acid, inorganic halides, for instance, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus trichloride, titanium tetrachloride and many others. Also organic agents may be used such as carboxylic acid chlorides, for instance acetylchloride, carboxylic acid anhydride, such as trifluoroacetic acid anhydride, carbodiimides, such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and many others. The isolation of the formed compounds of the invention may be carried out by distilling off the solvent at atmospheric or reduced pressure or by precipitation with water or a slightly polar organic solvent such as diethylether or by crystallization.

EXAMPLES ILLUSTRATING USES AND ACTIVITIES
The following examples are furnished to illustrate the various uses and the superior fungicidal activity of the compounds of the invention.
EXAMPLE 14
Threshold concentration test for use of the compounds against Pythium ultimum
A 20% concentration of certain pulverulent active agents as listed below were mixed in uniform manner into a soil which had been heavily infested by Pythium ultimum. The thus treated soil was then placed into clay dishes of a capacity of 0.5 l earth. Without any intermediate time lapse 20 grain of garden peas (Pisum sativum L. convar. medullare Alef.) of the type "Wunder von Kelvedon" were then seeded into each of the clay dishes. After a cultivation period of three weeks at 20.degree. to 24.degree. C. in a hothouse the number of sound peas was determined and a root evaluation was carried out. The active agents amounts and results appear from the following table.
The root evaluation was carried out on a scale from 1 to 4 as follows:
4=white roots without fungous necrosis;
3=white roots, minor fungous necrosis;

Threshold concentration test in case of Fusarium avenaceum
A 20% pulverulent active agent of the type further identified in the table below was mixed in uniform manner with a soil which had been heavily infested with Fusarium avenaceum. The thus treated soil was then placed into clay dishes of a capacity of 0.5 l of earth. Each dish was seeded without any intervening time with 20 grains of garden peas (Pisum sativum L. convar. medullare Alef.) of the type "Wunder von Kelvedon". After a cultivation time of 18 days at 20.degree. to 24.degree. C. in a hot house the number of sound peas was determined and a root evaluation was carried out. The active agents employed, the amounts and results appear from the following table.
The root evaluation was carried out on a scale from 1 to 4 as follows:
4=white roots without fungous necroses
3=white roots with minor fungous necroses
2=brown roots already more pronounced fungous necroses `1=heavy fungous necroses with roots rotted.

Inhibition of fungus in a nutrient solution
20 ml of a nutrient solution of grape juice and water (1:1) were filled into a glass vial of a 100 ml capacity and were mixed with the pulverulent active agents which appear from the subsequent table. Thereafter, the solution was inoculated with conidia (spores) of the test fungi.
After an incubation time of 6 days at 21.degree. to 23.degree. C. the fungus development on the surface of the nutrient solution was evaluated. The test fungi used were the following: Penicillium digitatum, Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria solani, Fusarium avenaceum.
The evaluation was carried out at a scale from 0 to 5 as follows:
0=no fungus growth;
1=isolated fungus colonies on the surface;
2=5 to 10% of the surface covered by the fungus turf;
3=10 to 30% of the surface covered by the fungus turf;
4=30 to 60% of the surface covered by the fungus turf;

Threshold concentration test with root gall nematodes (Meloidogyne sp.)
20% concentration pulverulent active agents as listed in the table below were mixed in a uniform manner with a soil which had been heavily infested by root gall nematodes. After waiting for 3 days the treated soil was placed in two clay dishes of a capacity of 0.5 liter. 10 grain of cucumber seeds of the type "Guntruud" were placed into each dish.
Thereafter, the contents of the dishes were permitted to develop at a temperature of 24.degree. to 27.degree. C. for a time of 28 days in a hothouse. The cucumber roots were then washed out and were examined in a water bath regarding nematode infestation. The reduction of the infestation by the active agents as compared with untreated control material was determined in percentages.
The active agents amounts and reduction of infestation appear from the following table.
The nematocidal activity was calculated by the formula
(A-B.)/A.multidot.100
In this formula

Effects of prophylactic leaf treatment of grapevines in the hothouse against Plasmopara viticola
Young grapevine plants having from 5 to 8 leaves were sprayed dripping wet with the concentrations of active agents stated in the table below. After drying of the spray deposit the leaves were sprayed with an aqueous suspension of sporangia of the fungus (about 20,000 per ml); the spraying was applied to the bottom side of the leaves. The plants were then immediately incubated in a hothouse at a temperature of 22.degree. to 24.degree. C. and at maximum water saturation in the atmosphere. Beginning with the second day the humidity of the air was reduced for 3 to 4 days to normal level (30 to 70% saturation) and was then maintained for another day on the level of full saturation. Subsequently, the percentage portion of the fungus infested surface of each leaf was noted and the average per treatment was calculated in order to determine the fungicidal activity. This was done on the basis of the following formula: ##EQU7##
The active compounds were applied in the form of a 20% concentration spray powder.
