Abstract

New and valuable herbicides containing mixtures, inter alia, of lower alkyl esters of N-benzoyl-N-chlorophenyl-2-amino-lower alkanoic acids and 3-lower alkyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazinone-(4)-2,2-dioxides or salts thereof.

Description

The present invention relates to new and valuable herbicides containing compositions of different active ingredients.

It is known that benzoylaminocarboxylic acids, dinitrophenol derivatives, hydroxybenzonitriles, hydroxybenzaldoxime aryl ethers, benzothiadiazinone dioxides and phenoxycarboxylic acids have a herbicidal action. However, this action is not always satisfactory.

I have now found that a composition of

A. a compound of the formula ##EQU1## where X denotes halogen, alkyl, haloalkyl or alkoxy, R denotes hydrogen or lower alkyl, R.sup.1 denotes lower alkyl, and n denotes one of the integers 0, 1, 2 and 3, and/or B. a compound of the formula ##EQU2## where R denotes lower alkyl, and R.sup.1 denotes hydrogen, or a salt thereof, e.g. ammonium, potassium, sodium, lithium, calcium, magnesium, ethylamine, dimethylamine, diethylamine, diethanolamine, ethanolamine, dimethylethanolamine, trimethylamine salts, and/or C. a compound of the formula ##EQU3## where X denotes chloro, bromo, nitro, iodo, cyano or lower alkyl, n denotes one of the integers 0, 1, 2 and 3, and R denotes hydrogen and salts thereof, e.g. sodium and lithium salts, ##EQU4## Y denoting chloro, iodo or bromo, R.sup.1 denoting lower alkyl, ##EQU5## hydrogen and salts thereof, e.g., sodium salt, R.sup.2 denoting hydrogen, lower alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl radical, and R.sup.3 denoting hydrogen, lower alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl radical, and/or D. a compound of the formula ##EQU6## where X denotes chloro or methyl, Y denotes chloro or methyl, n denotes one of the integers 0, 1, 2 and 3, R denotes hydrogen or lower alkyl, m denotes one of the integers 0, 1 and 2 and R.sup.1 denotes alkyl or hydrogen, or a salt thereof, e.g., sodium, potassium, dimethylamine, diethanolamine, and diethylamine salts, has a better herbicidal action than its constituents.

The compositions may contain one or more compounds of the formula a) and one of more compounds of the formulas b), c) or d).

The ratio of the active ingredients to each other is 1:0.1 to 10 parts by weight.

The amount used of the agents according to the invention may vary and depends in essence on the type of effect to be achieved; it is generally from 0.1 to 30 (and more), preferably 0.2 to 6, kg per hectare of active ingredient. The agents according to the invention may be used once or several times inter alia after planting, postemergence or during emergence of the crop or unwanted plants.

The compositions are selective in crops such as Triticum spp., Hordeum spp., Secale spp., Zea mays, Oryza sativa, Pisum sativum, Phaseolus vulgaris, Glycine max, and Solanum tuberosum.

The compositions may also be used as total herbicides on ditches, aquatic areas, railroad tracks, and barren or waste land, etc.

Compositions of a+b, a+c, a+d, a+b+c, a+b+d, a+c+d, and b+c+d are preferred.

Application may be effected for instance in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions, dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dusts, broadcasting agents, or granules by spraying, atomizing, dusting, broadcasting or watering. The forms of application depend entirely on the purpose for which the agents are being used; in any case they should ensure a fine distribution of the active ingredient.

For the preparation of solutions, emulsions, pastes and oil dispersions to be sprayed direct, mineral oil fractions of medium to high boiling point, such as kerosene or diesel oil, further coaltar oils, etc. and oil of vegetable or mineral origin, aliphatic, cyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, paraffin, tetrahydronaphthalene, alkylated naphthalenes and their derivatives such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, chlorobenzene, isophorone, etc., and strongly polar solvents such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, N-methylpyrrolidone, water, etc. are suitable.

Aqueous formulations may be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes, oil dispersions or wettable powders by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes and oil dispersions the ingredients as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent may be homogenized in water by means of wetting or dispersing agents, adherents or emulsifiers. Concentrates which are suitable for dilution with water may be prepared from active ingredient, wetting agent, adherent, emulsifying or dispersing agent and possibly solvent or oil.

Examples of surfactants are: alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and ammonium salts of ligninsulfonic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acids, phenolsulfonic acids, alkylaryl sulfonates, alkyl sulfates, and alkyl sulfonates, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts or dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid, lauryl ether sulfate, fatty alcohol sulfates, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of fatty acids, salts of sulfated hexadecanols, heptadecanols, and octadecanols, salts of sulfated fatty alcohol glycol ether, condensation products of sulfonated naphthalene and naphthalene derivatives with formaldehyde, condensation products of naphthalene or naphthalenesulfonic acids with phenol and formaldehyde, polyoxyethylene octylphenol ethers, ethoxylated isooctylphenol, ethoxylated octylphenol and ethoxylated nonylphenol, alkylphenol polyglycol ethers, tributylphenyl polyglycol ethers, alkylaryl polyether alcohols, isotridecyl alcohol, fatty alcohol ethylene oxide condensates, ethoxylated castor oil, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, ethoxylated polyoxypropylene, lauryl alcohol polyglycol ether acetal, sorbitol esters, lignin, sulfite waste liquors and methyl cellulose.

Powders, dusts and broadcasting agents may be prepared by mixing or grinding the active ingredients with a solid carrier.

Granules, e.g., coated, impregnated or homogeneous granules, may be prepared by bonding the active ingredients to solid carriers. Examples of solid carriers are mineral earths such as silica gel, silicic acid, silica gels, silicates, talc, kaolin,, Attaclay, limestone, lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolomite, diatomaceous earth, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide, ground plastics, fertilizers such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, and ureas, and vegetable products such as grain flours, bark meal, wood meal, and nutshell meal, cellulosic powders, etc.

The formulations contain 0.1 to 95, and preferably 0.5 to 90, % by weight of active ingredient.

There may be added to the compositions or individual active ingredients (if desired, immediately before use (tankmix) oils of various types, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, insecticides, bactericides, trace elements, fertilizers, antifoams (e.g., silicones), growth regulators, antidotes and other herbicidally effective compounds such as substituted anilines substituted aryloxycarboxylic acids and salts, esters and amides thereof,

The last-mentioned herbicidal compounds may also be applied before or after the active ingredients or compositions thereof according to the invention.

These agents may be added to the herbicides according to the invention in a ratio by weight of from 1:10 to 10:1. The same applies to oils, fungicides, nematocides, insecticides, bactericides, antidotes and growth regulators.

The new compositions have a strong herbicidal action and may therefore be used as weedkillers or for controlling the growth of unwanted plants. Whether the new active ingredients are used as total or selective agents depends in essence on the amount of ingredient used per unit area.

By weeds and unwanted plant growth are meant all monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants which grow in loci where they are not desired.
