Description

The invention relates to new sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones having substituents bonded via oxygen, to a plurality of processes and novel intermediates for their preparation, and to their use as herbicides.
It has been disclosed that certain substituted sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones such as, for example, 2-(2-chloro-phenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4,5-dimethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one have herbicidal properties (cf. EP-A 341,489). However, the action of these compounds is not satisfactory in all respects.
Further sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones such as, for example, 2-(2-methoxycarbonyl-phenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4-methyl-5-methoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one are the subject of an earlier, but non-prior-published Patent Application (cf. German Patent 3,934,081 dated Dec. 10, 1989).
There have now been found the novel sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones having substituents bonded via oxygen, of the general formula (I) ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, amino, or an optionally substituted radical from the series comprising alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, aryl, alkylamino, cycloalkylamino, dialkylamino,
R.sup.2 represents an optionally substituted radical from the series comprising alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aralkyl, aryl, and
R.sup.3 represents an optionally substituted radical from the series comprising alkyl, aralkyl, aryl, heteroaryl,
and salts of compounds of the formula (I), with the exception of 2-(2-methoxycarbonyl-phenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4-methyl-5-methoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (cf. German Patent 3,934,081).
The new sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones having substituents bonded via oxygen, of the general formula (I), are obtained when
(a) Triazolinones of the General Formula (II) ##STR3## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the abovementioned meanings
are reacted with sulphonyl isocyanates of the general formula (III)
R.sup.3 --SO.sub.2 --N.dbd.C.dbd.O (III)
in which
R.sup.3 has the abovementioned meaning,
if appropriate in the presence of a diluent, or when
(b) Triazolinone Derivatives of the General Formula (IV) ##STR4## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the abovementioned meanings and
Z represents halogen, alkoxy, aralkoxy or aryloxy,
are reacted with sulphonamides of the general formula (V)
R.sup.3 --SO.sub.2--NH.sub.2 (V)
in which
R.sup.3 has the abovementioned meaning,
if appropriate in the presence of an acid acceptor and if appropriate in the presence of a diluent, or when
(c) Triazolinones of the General Formula (II) ##STR5## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the abovementioned meanings
are reacted with sulphonamide derivatives of the general formula (VI)
R.sup.3 --SO.sub.2 --NH--CO--Z (VI)
in which
R.sup.3 has the abovementioned meaning and
Z represents halogen, alkoxy, aralkoxy or aryloxy,
if appropriate in the presence of an acid acceptor and if appropriate in the presence of a diluent and, if appropriate, salts are formed, by customary methods, of the compounds of the formula (I) which have been prepared by process (a), (b) or (c).
The new sulphonylaminocarbonyltriazolinones having substituents bonded via oxygen, of the general formula (I), and their salts are distinguished by a powerful herbicidal activity.
Surprisingly, the new compounds of the formula (I) show a considerably better herbicidal action than the known compound 2-(2-chlorophenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4,5-dimethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, which has a similar structure.

Surprisingly, some mixtures also show a synergistic action.
Mixtures with other known active compounds, such as fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, bird repellants, plant nutrients and agents which improve soil structure, are also possible.
The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or in the use forms prepared therefrom by further dilution, such as ready-to-use solutions, suspensions, emulsions, powders, pastes and granules. They are used in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying, atomising or scattering.
The active compounds according to the invention can be applied either before or after emergence of the plants.
They can also be incorporated into the soil before sowing.
The amount of active compound used can vary within a substantial range. It depends essentially on the nature of the desired effect. In general, the amounts used are between 1 g and 10 kg of active compound per hectare of soil surface, preferably between 5 g and 5 kg per ha.





The preparation and use of the active compounds according to the invention can be seen from the following examples.
PREPARATION EXAMPLES
Example 1 ##STR107## (Process (a))
A mixture of 2.0 g (10.5 mmol) of 4-methyl-5-phenoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, 3.5 g (14.5 mmol) of 2-methoxycarbonyl-phenylsulphonyl isocyanate and 60 ml of acetonitrile is stirred for 6 hours at 20.degree. C. and subsequently concentrated under a water pump vacuum. The residue is stirred with diethyl ether and the product which has precipitated in crystalline form is isolated by filtration with suction.
4.1 g (90% of theory) of 2-(2-methoxycarbonyl-phenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4-methyl-5-phenoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one of melting point 161.degree. C. are obtained.

Starting Substances of the Formula (II)
Example (II-1) ##STR501##
A mixture of 5.0 g (0.02 mol) of 1-phenoxycarbonyl-4-allyl-O-methyl-isosemicarbazide and 30 ml of toluene is refluxed for 15 minutes and subsequently concentrated under a water pump vacuum. The residue is triturated with diethyl ether/petroleum ether, and the product which has been obtained in crystalline form is isolated by filtration with suction.
2.0 g (64% of theory) of 4-allyl-5-methoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one of melting point 111.degree. C. are obtained.
Example (II-2) ##STR502##
50.2 g (0.33 mol) of phenyl hydrazinoformate and 36.6 g (0.33 mol, 93% strength) of trimethyl iminocarbonate are heated to 60.degree. C. in 100 ml of absolute o-dichlorobenzene, and the mixture is stirred for 2 hours, during which process a clear solution is formed. In the course of two hours, it is heated to 120.degree. C., during which process methanol distilled off. A vacuum is applied carefully, during which process more methanol and finally phenol distil off. Further distillation results in a fraction which solidifies in the receiving vessel in crystalline form.
After recrystallisation from toluene, 7.0 g (0.054 mol, 16% of theory) of 4-methyl-5-methoxy-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one of melting point 142.degree.-144.degree. C. are obtained in the form of colourless crystals.

Use Examples
In the Use Examples, the following compound (A) is used as comparison substance: ##STR518##
2-(2-chloro-phenylsulphonylaminocarbonyl)-4,5-dimethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (disclosed in EP-A 341,489).
Example A
Post-emergence Test
Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Test plants-which have a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the preparation of the active compound in such a way as-to apply the particular amounts of active compound desired per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is so chosen that the particular amounts of active compound desired are applied in 1,000 l of water/ha. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. The figures denote:
0%=no action (like untreated control)
100%=total destruction
In this test, a considerably more powerful action against weeds than the known compound (A) is shown, for example, by the compounds of Preparation Examples 1, 2, 3, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 64, 65 and 67, while having, in some cases, good crop plant compatibility.
Example B
Pre-emergence Test
Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Seeds of the test plants are sown in normal soil and, after 24 hours, watered with the preparation of the active compound. It is expedient to keep constant the amount of water per unit area. The concentration of the active compound in the preparation is of no importance, only the amount of active compound applied per unit area being decisive. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. The figures denote:
0%=no action (like untreated control)
100%=total destruction
In this test, a considerably more powerful action against weeds than the known compound (A) is shown, for example, by the compounds of Preparation Examples 2, 54 and 69, while having, in some cases, good crop plant compatibility.
It will be understood that the specification and examples are illustrative but not imitative of the present invention and that other embodiments within the spirit and scope of the invention will suggest themselves to those skilled in the art.
