Description

The present invention relates to certain new halogenated 4-trifluoromethyl-diphenyl-ether compounds, to herbicidal compositions containing them, and to herbicidal applications using them.
It is known that 2,4-dichloro-4'-cyano-diphenyl-ether and 2,4,6-trichloro-4'-cyano-diphenyl ether can be used for combating weeds; see German Offenlegungsschrift (German Published Specification) 1,912,000; 2,4-dichloro-4'-nitro-diphenyl-ether, disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,080,225 and sold under the name Nitrofen, is also known. However, these compounds are not active against all weeds, especially if low amounts and low concentrations are used; for example, they have a low activity against species of Echinochloa, such as Echinochloa crus galli, which occurs as a weed in rice, and against species of Eleocharis, such as Eleocharis palustris.
The present invention provides halogenated 4-trifluoromethyl-diphenyl-ethers of the formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 is alkylthio of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or aminothiocarbonyl;
R.sup.2 is hydrogen or methyl;
X.sup.1 is halogen; and
X.sup.2 is hydrogen or halogen.
Preferably, X.sup.1 represents chlorine, X.sup.2 represents hydrogen or chlorine and R.sup.1 represents aminothiocarbonyl or alkylthio of from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, alkylsulfinyl or from 1 to 3 carbon atoms or alkylsulfonyl of from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, especially methylthio, ethylthio, methylsulfinyl, ethylsulfinyl, methylsulfonyl or ethylsulfonyl.
Surprisingly, the halogenated 4-trifluoromethyl-diphenyl-ethers according to the invention display a substantially greater herbicidal action than the compounds known in the art, such as 2,4-dichloro-4'-cyanodiphenyl-ether, 2,4,6-trichloro-4'-cyanodiphenyl-ether and 2,4-dichloro-4'-nitro-diphenyl-ether. The compounds according to the invention thus represent an enrichment of the art.
The invention also provides a process for the production of a halogenated 4-trifluoromethyl-diphenyl-ether of the formula (I) in which
a. a 4-halobenzotrifluoride of the formula ##STR3## in which X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 have the above-mentioned meanings and
Hal represents halogen,
is reacted with a phenolate or thiophenolate of the formula ##STR4## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the above-mentioned meanings and
M is an alkali metal,
optionally in the presence of an aprotic solvent; of (if R.sup.1 is alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl)
(b) a diphenyl-ether of the formula ##STR5## in which X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and R.sup.2 have the meanings indicated above,
is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide in acid or alkaline solution; or (if R.sup.1 is aminothiocarbonyl)
c. a diphenyl-ether of the formula ##STR6## in which X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and R.sup.2 have the above-mentioned meanings,
is reacted with O,O-diethyl-dithiophosphoric acid in the presence of hydrogen chloride and optionally in the presence of a diluent.
If, in accordance with process variant (a), 3,4,5-trichlorobenzotrifluoride and sodium p-methylsulfonyl-phenolate are used as starting compounds, the course of the reaction can be represented by the following formula scheme: ##STR7##
The following formula schemes exemplify process variants (b) and (c), respectively: ##STR8##
The general formula (II) provides a definition of the 4-halobenzotrifluorides which can be used as starting compounds for variant (a). In this formula, hal preferably represents chlorine. Some of these 4-halobenzotrifluorides are known (see J. Am. Chem. Soc. 57, 2066-2068 (1935) and U.S. Pat. No. 2,654,789); those which are not yet known can be prepared according to methods described in the above literature, by halogenation of benzotrifluorides (such methods are illustrated in the Examples herein).
The general formula (III) provides a definition of the phenolates or thiophenolates used as starting compounds in variant (a). In this formula, M preferably represents sodium or potassium. The sodium phenolates and potassium phenolates and sodium thiophenolates and potassium thiophenolates of the formula (III) are generally known.
All aprotic solvents can be used as diluents in carrying out variant (a). Preferred ones include amides, such as hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, dimethylformamide or dimehtylacetamide and also sulfoxides, such as dimethylsulfoxide, as well as ketones, such as methyl ethyl ketone, and nitriles, such as acetonitrile.
In process variant (a), the reaction temperatures can be varied over a wide range. In general, the reaction is carried out at 40.degree. to 200.degree. C, preferably at 80.degree. to 160.degree. C.
The starting compounds of the formulae (II) and (III) used in process variant (a) are preferably reacted in stoichiometric amounts, but amounts greater or less than this up to 20% can be used without significant losses in yield. The reaction mixture may be worked up in the manner customary in the laboratory.
Process variant (b) belongs to a known type of process, but is new in its particular starting materials. Process variant (c) also belongs to a known type of process (see, on this matter, U.S. Pat. No. 2,822,374); it is illustrated in the Examples herein.

The active compounds according to the invention have excellent herbicidal properties and can therefore be used for combating weeds.
Weeds in the broadest sense are plants which grow in locations where they are not desired. As weeds there may be mentioned: dicotyledons, such as mustard (Sinapis), cress (Lepidum), cleavers (Galium), chickweed (Stellaria), camomile (Matricaria), gallant Soldier (Galinsoga), goosefoot (Chenopodium), annual nettle (Urtica) and groundsel (Senecio), and monocotyledons, such as timothy (Phleum), bluegrass (Poa), fescue (Festuca), goosegrass (Eleusine), foxtail (Setaria), ryegrass (Lolium) and barnyard grass (Echinochloa).
The active compounds according to the invention have a very strong influence on plant growth, but in different ways, so that they can be used as selective herbicides. They display particular advantages as selective herbicides in the cultivation of cotton, rice, carrots and cereals (including maize). In higher concentrations (approximately 10 to 20 kg/ha), they can be employed as total weedkillers.
The active compounds according to the present invention can be converted into the usual formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, pastes and granulates. These may be produced in known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is, liquid or solid or liquefied gaseous diluents or carriers, optionally with the use of surface-active agents, that is, emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents, and/or foam-forming agents. In the case of the use of water as an extender, organic solvents can, for example, also be used as auxiliary solvents.
As liquid diluents or carriers, there are preferably used aromatic hydrocarbons, such as xylenes, toluene, benzene or alkyl naphthalenes, chlorinated aromatic or aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example mineral oil fractions, alcohols, such as butanol or glycol as well as their ethers and esters, ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, or strongly polar solvents, such as dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide or acetonitrile, as well as water.
By liquefied gaseous diluents or carriers are meant liquids which would be gaseous at normal temperatures and pressures, e.g. aerosol propellants, such as halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g. freon.
As solid diluents or carriers, there are preferably used ground natural minerals, such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, or ground synthetic minerals, such as highly-dispersed silicic acid, alumina or silicates.
Preferred examples of emulsifying and foam-forming agents include non-ionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene-fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene-fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylarylpolyglycol ethers, alkyl sulfonates, alkyl sulfates and aryl sulfonates as well as albumin hydrolyzation products; and preferred examples of dispersing agents include lignin, sulfite waste liquors and methyl cellulose.
The active compounds according to the invention can be used as a mixture with other active compounds.
The formulations in general contain from 0.1 to 95 percent by weight of active compound, preferably 0.5 to 90 percent by weight.
The active compounds can be used as such or in the form of their formulations or the application forms prepared therefrom, such as ready-to-use solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, pastes and granules. They may be applied in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying, atomizing, sprinkling and dusting.
They can be applied both post-emergence and pre-emergence; they are preferably applied after emergence of the plants.
The amount of active compound employed can vary within wide ranges. It depends essentially on the nature of the desired effect. In general, the amounts used are 0.1 to 25 kg/ha, preferably 0.5 to 10 kg/ha.
The compounds according to the invention also have an insecticidal, acaricidal and fungicidal action which deserves mention.
The invention therefore provides a herbicidal composition containing as active ingredient a compound according to the invention in admixture with a solid or liquefied gaseous diluent or carrier or in admixture with a liquid diluent or carrier containing a surface-active agent.
The invention also provides a method of combating weeds which comprises applying to the weeds or their habitat a compound according to the invention alone or in the form of a composition containing as active ingredient a compound according to the invention in admixture with a diluent or carrier.
The invention also provides means of providing crops protected from damage by weeds by being grown in areas in which, immediately prior to and/or during the time of the growing, a compound according to the invention was applied alone or in admixture with a diluent or carrier. It will be seen that the usual methods of providing a harvested crop may be improved by the present invention.
