The compounds I referred to above as component 1, their preparation and their action against harmful fungi are proposed in a general manner in the literature (U.S. Pat. No. 5,593,996). Individual compounds of the formula I are known from U.S. Pat. No. 5,593,996; WO 02/02563; WO 02/94020).


Mixtures of 5-chlorotriazolopyrimidines with various active compounds are known in a general manner from EP-A 988 790 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,268,371.


It is an object of the present invention, with a view to reducing the application rates of the known compounds, to provide novel active compounds or mixtures which, at a reduced total amount of active compounds applied, have improved activity against harmful fungi.


Accordingly, the mixtures defined at the outset and novel active compounds have been found. Moreover, it has been found that simultaneous, that is joint or separate, application of a compound I and an active compound II from groups A) to R) or successive application of a compound I and an active compound from groups A) to R) allows better control of harmful fungi than is possible with the individual compounds (synergistic mixtures).


Suitable for use according to the invention are in particular the compounds compiled in the following table, where the groups D and L have the following meanings:

They are a preferred subject matter of the invention.


In addition, preference is also given to compounds I in which L is fluorine and D has one of the meanings below:


(CH2)4—; —CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH(CH3)—; —CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH2—; —CH2—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—; —CH2—CH(CH3)—CH(CH3)—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—; —CH(CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH2—CH(CH3)—; —CH2—CH(CH3)—CH(CH3)—(CH2)2—; —CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—; —(CH2)2—CH(CH[CH3]2)—(CH2)2—; —CH(CH2CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH2—CH2—; —CH—CH(CH2CH3)—CH2—CH2—CH2—; —CH2—CH2—CH(CH2CH3)—CH2—CH2—; —CH2—CH2—CH(CH2CH2CH3)—CH2—CH2— and —CH2—CH2—CH(C[CH3]3)—CH2—CH2—. These compounds, too, are novel.

These compounds are novel.


The novel compounds can be obtained by different routes. Advantageously, they are obtained by reacting dichlorotriazolopyrimidines of the formula II′ in which L is methyl, fluorine or chlorine with amines of the formula II′ in which D is as defined for formula I, under conditions known in a general manner from WO 98/46608.







The reaction of II′ with amines-III′ is advantageously carried out at from 0° C. to 70° C., preferably from 10° C. to 35° C., preferably in the presence of an inert solvent, such as an ether, for example dioxane, diethyl ether or, in particular, tetrahydrofuran, a halogenated hydrocarbon, such as dichloromethane or an aromatic hydrocarbon, such as, for example, toluene.


The use of a base, such as a tertiary amine, for example triethylamine or an inorganic base, such as potassium carbonate, is preferred; it is also possible for excess amine of the formula III to serve as base.


Amines of the formula III′ are commercially available.

The mixtures of the compounds I and the active compounds from groups A) to R) or the simultaneous, that is joint or separate, use of the compounds I and the active compounds from groups A) to R) are distinguished by being highly active against a wide range of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular from the classes of the Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Oomycetes and Basidiomycetes. Some of them act systemically and can be used in crop protection as foliar fungicides, as fungicides for seed dressing and as soil-acting fungicides.


They are particularly important for controlling a multitude of fungi on various cultivated plants, such as bananas, cotton, vegetable species (for example cucumbers, beans and cucurbits), barley, grass, oats, coffee, potatoes, corn, fruit species, rice, rye, soya, tomatoes, grapevines, wheat, ornamental plants, sugar cane and on a large number of seeds.


They are particularly suitable for the control of the following phytopathogenic fungi: Blumeria graminis (powdery mildew) on cereals, Erysiphe cichoracearum and Sphaerotheca fuliginea on cucurbits, Podosphaera leucotricha on apples, Uncinula necator on grapevines, Puccinia species on cereals, Rhizoctonia species on cotton, rice and lawns, Ustilago species on cereals and sugar cane, Venturia inaequalis on apples, Bipolaris and Drechslera species on cereals, rice and lawns, Septoria species on wheat, Botrytis cinerea on strawberries, vegetables, ornamental plants and grapevines, Mycosphaerella species on bananas, peanuts and cereals, Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides on wheat and barley, Pyricularia oryzae on rice, Phakopsora species on soybean, Phytophthora infestans on potatoes and tomatoes, Pseudoperonospora species on cucurbits and hops, Plasmopara viticola on grapevines, Alternaria species on fruit and vegetables and also Fusarium and Verticillium species.


They can also be used in the protection of materials (e.g. the protection of wood), for example against Paecilomyces variotii.


The compound I and the active compounds from groups A) to R) can be applied simultaneously, that is jointly or separately, or in succession, the sequence, in the case of separate application, generally not having any effect on the result of the control measures.

The mixtures according to the invention, or the active components, can be converted into the customary formulations, for example solutions, emulsions, suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes and granules. The use form depends on the particular intended purpose; in each case, it should ensure a fine and even distribution of the compound according to the invention.

Examples of solid carriers are mineral earths such as silica gels, silicates, talc, kaolin, attaclay, limestone, lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolomite, diatomaceous earth, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide, ground synthetic materials, fertilizers, such as, for example, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, ureas, and products of vegetable origin, such as cereal meal, tree bark meal, wood meal and nutshell meal, cellulose powders and other solid carriers.


In general, the formulations comprise from 0.01 to 95% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 90% by weight, of the active compounds. The active compounds are employed in a purity of from 90% to 100%, preferably 95% to 100% (according to NMR spectrum).


The following are examples of formulations of the invention:


1. Products for Dilution with Water


A Water-soluble Concentrates (SL)

10 parts by weight of the active compounds are dissolved with 90 parts by weight of water or a water-soluble solvent. As an alternative, wetters or other auxiliaries are added. The active compound dissolves upon dilution with water. In this way, a formulation having an active compound content of 10% by weight is obtained.


B Dispersible Concentrates (DC)

20 parts by weight of the active compounds are dissolved in 70 parts by weight of cyclohexanone with addition of 10 parts by weight of a dispersant, for example polyvinylpyrrolidone. Dilution with water gives a dispersion. The active compound content is 20% by weight


C Emulsifiable Concentrates (EC)

15 parts by weight of the active compounds are dissolved in 75 parts by weight of xylene with addition of calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and castor oil ethoxylate (in each case 5 parts by weight). Dilution with water gives an emulsion. The formulation has an active compound content of 15% by weight.


D Emulsions (EW, EO)

25 parts by weight of the active compounds are dissolved in 35 parts by weight of xylene with addition of calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and castor oil ethoxylate (in each case 5 parts by weight). This mixture is introduced into 30 parts by weight of water by means of an emulsifying machine (for example Ultraturrax) and made into a homogeneous emulsion. Dilution with water gives an emulsion. The formulation has an active compound content of 25% by weight.


E Suspensions (SC, OD)

In an agitated ball mill, 20 parts by weight of the active compounds are comminuted with addition of 10 parts by weight of dispersants and wetters and 70 parts by weight of water or an organic solvent to give a fine active compound suspension. Dilution with water gives a stable suspension of the active compound. The active compound content in the formulation is 20% by weight.


F Water-Dispersible Granules and Water-Soluble Granules (WG, SG)

50 parts by weight of the active compounds are ground finely with addition of 50 parts by weight of dispersants and wetters and prepared as water-dispersible or water-soluble granules by means of technical appliances (for example extrusion, spray tower, fluidized bed). Dilution with water gives a stable dispersion or solution of the active compound. The formulation has an active compound content of 50% by weight.


G Water-Dispersible Powders and Water-Soluble Powders (WP, SP)

75 parts by weight of the active compounds are ground in a rotor-stator mill with addition of 25 parts by weight of dispersants, wetters and silica gel. Dilution with water gives a stable dispersion or solution of the active compound. The active compound content of the formulation is 75% by weight.


2. Products to be Applied Undiluted
H Dustable Powders (DP)

5 parts by weight of the active compounds are ground finely and mixed intimately with 95 parts by weight of finely divided kaolin. This gives a dustable product having an active compound content of 5% by weight.


I Granules (GR, FG, GG, MG)

0.5 part by weight of the active compounds is ground finely and associated with 99.5 parts by weight of carriers. Current methods are extrusion, spray-drying or the fluidized bed. This gives granules to be applied undiluted having an active compound content of 0.5% by weight.


J ULV Solutions (UL)

10 parts by weight of the active compounds are dissolved in 90 parts by weight of an organic solvent, for example xylene. This gives a product to be applied undiluted having an active compound content of 10% by weight.


The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom, for example in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dustable products, materials for spreading, or granules, by means of spraying, atomizing, dusting, spreading or pouring. The use forms depend entirely on the intended purposes; they are intended to ensure in each case the finest possible distribution of the active compounds according to the invention.


Aqueous use forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders (sprayable powders, oil dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil dispersions, the substances, as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by means of a wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier. However, it is also possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance, wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such concentrates are suitable for dilution with water.


The active compound concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations can be varied within relatively wide ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.01 to 1%.


The active compounds may also be used successfully in the ultra-low-volume process (ULV), it being possible to apply formulations comprising over 95% by weight of active compound, or even to apply the active compound without additives.


Oils of various types, wetters, adjuvants, herbicides, fungicides, other pesticides, or bactericides may be added to the active compounds even, if appropriate, not until immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents are typically admixed with the compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of from 1:10 to 10:1.


The compounds I and II or the mixtures or the corresponding formulations are applied by treating the harmful fungi, the plants, seeds, soils, areas, materials or spaces to be kept free from them with a fungicidally effective amount of the mixture or, in the case of separate application, of the compounds I and II. Application can be carried out before or after infection by the harmful fungi.

The fungicidal effect of the compound and the mixtures was demonstrated by the following tests:


Use Example 1
Activity Against Venturia Inequalis (Protective)

Leaves of potted apple seedlings of the cultivar “Common” were sprayed to run off point with an aqueous active compound preparation which had been prepared using a stock solution of 5% active compound, 94% acetonitrile and 1% emulsifier (Tween 20). After the spray coating had dried on (3-5 h), the leaves were inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension of Venturia inequalis. The test plants were then placed in climatized chambers at 22-24° C. and 95-99% relative atmospheric humidity for 2 days and then cultivated in the greenhouse at 21-23° C. and about 95% relative atmospheric humidity for a further 2 weeks. The extent of the development of the infection on the leaves was then determined visually.


In this test, the plants which had been treated with 200 ppm of the active compound I-1, I-2 or I-10 showed an infection of at most 15%, whereas the untreated plants were 90% infected.


Use Example 2
Activity Against Alternaria solani on Tomatoes (Protective)

Leaves of tomato plants of the cultivar “Pixie II” which had been cultivated in pots up to the 4-leaf stage were sprayed to run off point with an aqueous active compound preparation which had been prepared from a stock solution of 5% active compound, 94% acetone and 1% emulsifier (Tween 20). After the spray coating had dried on (3-5 h), the leaves were inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension of Alternaria solani (density 15×103 spores per ml). The test plants were then placed in climatized chambers at 22-24° C. and 96-99% relative atmospheric humidity for 36 hours and then cultivated in the greenhouse at 21-23° C. and about 95% relative atmospheric humidity for a further 2 to 3 days. The extent of the development of the infection on the leaves was then determined visually.


In this test, plants which had been treated with 200 ppm of the active compounds I-1, I-2, I-5, I-6, I-7, I-9 or I-11 showed an infection of at most 15%, whereas the untreated plants were 90% infected.


For use examples 3 to 9, the active compounds, separately or jointly, were prepared as a stock solution comprising 0.25% by weight of active compound in acetone or DMSO. 1% by weight of the emulsifier Uniperol® EL (wetter having emulsifying and dispersant action based on ethoxylated alkylphenols) was added to this solution, and the mixture was diluted with water to the desired concentration.


The active compounds fosetyl-AI, epoxiconazole, triticonazole and pyraclostrobin were applied in their commercial formulation.


Use Example 3
Activity Against Early Blight of Tomato Caused by Alternaria Solani

Leaves of potted plants of the cultivar “Goldene Königin” were sprayed to run off point with an aqueous suspension having the active compound concentration stated below. The next day, the leaves were infected with an aqueous spore suspension of Alternaria solani in a 2% strength biomalt solution having a density of 0.17×106 spores/ml. The plants were then placed in a water vapor-saturated chamber at temperatures between 20 and 22° C. After 5 days, the disease on the untreated but infected control plants had developed to such an extent that the infection could be determined visually in %.


In this test, the plants which had been treated with 63 ppm of the active compound I-12 showed no infection, whereas the untreated plants were 90% infected.


Use Example 4
Activity Against Net Blotch of Barley Caused by Pyrenophora Teres, 1 Day Protective Application

Leaves of potted barley seedlings were sprayed to run off with an aqueous suspension having the active compound concentration stated below. 24 hours after the spray coating had dried on, the test plants were inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension of Pyrenophora [syn. Drechslera ] teres, the net blotch pathogen. The test plants were then placed in a greenhouse at temperatures between 20 and 24° C. and 95 to 100% relative atmospheric humidity. After 6 days, the extent of the development of the disease was determined visually in % infection of the entire leaf area.


In this test, the plants which had been treated with 63 ppm of the active compound I-12 showed an infection of 7%, whereas the untreated plants were 90% infected.


Synergistic Effects
Use Example 5
Activity Against Early Blight of Tomato Caused by Alternaria Solani

A further test according to use example 3 was evaluated as follows:


The visually determined percentages of infected leaf areas were converted into efficacies in % of the untreated control:


The efficacy (E) is calculated as follows using Abbot's formula:






E=(1−α/β)·100


α corresponds to the fungicidal infection of the treated plants in % and


β 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 mixtures of active compounds were determined using Colby's formula (Colby, S.R. “Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations”, Weeds, 15, 20-22, 1967) and compared with the observed efficacies.


Colby's formula:






E=x+y−x·y/100

  • E expected efficacy, expressed in % of the untreated control, when using the mixture of the active compounds A and B at the concentrations a and b
  • x efficacy, expressed in % of the untreated control, when using the active compound A at the concentration a
  • y efficacy, expressed in % of the untreated control, when using the active compound B at the concentration b


The following results were obtained:
