Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to methods for controlling pests. In particular, it relates to control by the application of certain novel compositions containing pesticidal N-substituted azacyclic derivatives.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is well known that pests such as insects and acarids in general can cause significant damage, not only to crops grown in agriculture, but also, for example, to structures and turf where the damage is caused by soil-borne insects, such as termites and white grubs. Such damage may result in the loss of millions of dollars of value associated with a given crop, turf or structure. Insecticides and acaricides are useful for controlling insects and acarids which may otherwise cause significant damage to crops such as wheat, corn, soybeans, potatoes, and cotton to name a few. For crop protection, insecticides and acaricides are desired which can control the insects and acarids without damaging the crops, and which have no deleterious effects to mammals and other living organisms. Surprisingly, it has now been found that compositions of N-substituted azacyclic derivatives of the present invention are unexpectedly active in controlling sucking pests such as cotton aphids, as well as other insect species.

Pharmacologically active 1,2,4-, 1,3,4-, and 1,2,5-oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-, 1,3,4- and 1,2,5-thiadiazoles have been reported in the literature, for example, Wätjen et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,870,073; Baker et al., U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,952,587 and 5,686,463 and European Patent EP 0323864 A2; Sauerberg et al., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,260,314, 5,481,240 and 5,527,813; Sauerberg et al., Journal of Medicinal Chem., Vol. 35, No. 12, pp. 2274-2283 (1992); Olesen et al., Eur. J. Med. Chem., 31, pp. 221-230 (1996); and MacLeod et al., Journal of Medicinal Chem., Vol. 33, pp. 2052-2059 (1990). Similarly, insecticidally and acaricidally active 1,2,4-, 1,3,4-, and 1,2,5-oxadiazoles, 1,2,3-, 1,2,4- and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, 1,2,4-triazoles, and 1,2,3,4-tetrazoles have been reported in the literature. For example, Dick, U.S. Pat. No. 5,393,767; Tsubata et al., U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,337,341 B1 and 6,348,460 B1; Theobald et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,943,584; and Matsumoto et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,722,934. EP 0445731 A1 and WO 01/15532 disclose azabicyclo and azacyclo oxime and amine compounds as pesticides. It has also been disclosed that pharmacologically active 1,2,4- and 1,2,5-thiadiazoles and insecticidally and acaricidally active 1,2,4-oxdiazoles, 1,3,4-triazoles, and 1,2,3,4-tetrazoles can act as muscarinic agonists, see, for example, Sauerberg et al., Journal of Medicinal Chem., Vol. 35, No. 12, pp. 2274-2283 (1992); Dick et al., Pestic. Sci., 49, 268-276 (1997); Olesen et al., Eur. J. Med. Chem., 31, pp. 221-230 (1996); and MacLeod et al., Journal of Medicinal Chem., Vol. 33, pp. 2052-2059 (1990).

WO 95/03306 discloses arthropodically active substituted 1,2,5-oxadiazoles and 1,2,5-thiadiazoles; however, it specifically requires that the 1,2,5-oxadiazole or 1,2,5-thiadiazole be substituted with an azabicyclic compound rather than a tetrahydropyridyl or a pyridyl ring and that said azabicyclic compound can only attach at the two position when the bridge occurs between the nitrogen and a carbon atom on the ring.

WO 93/14636 and its equivalent U.S. Pat. No. 5,244,906 disclose certain substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-thiadiazoles useful for control of insects, such as sucking insects like two-spotted spider mite.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It has now been found that certain compositions containing a pesticidally effective amount of an N-substituted azacyclic derivative, and their agriculturally acceptable salts, in admixture with at least one agriculturally acceptable extender or adjuvant are surprisingly effective in controlling pests, i.e., acaricides, as well as insects. The N-substituted azacyclic derivatives may be represented by the following formula I: wherein

As used in this specification and unless otherwise indicated, the substituent terms “alkyl” and “alkoxy”, alone or as part of a larger moiety, include chains of 1 to 14 carbon atoms, preferably straight or branched alkyls of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; while “halogen” or “halo”, alone or as part of a larger moiety, includes chlorine, bromine, fluorine, and iodine atoms. The terms “alkenyl” or “alkynyl”, used alone or as part of a larger moiety, includes straight or branched chains of at least two carbon atoms containing at least one carbon-carbon double or triple bond, preferably up to 12 carbon atoms, more preferably, up to ten carbon atoms, most preferably up to seven carbon atoms. The term “cycloalkyl” includes rings of three to twelve carbon atoms, preferably rings of three to six carbon atoms. The terms “haloalkyl” and “haloalkoxy”, alone or as part of a larger moiety, include straight or branched chain alkyls of 1 to 14 carbon atoms, preferably lower straight or branched chain alkyls of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced with halogen atoms, as, for example, trifluoromethyl or 2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy, respectively. “Aryl” refers to an aromatic ring structure, including fused rings, having 5 to 10 carbon atoms. “Heterocyclyl” refers to an aromatic ring structure, including fused rings, having at least one nitrogen, sulfur or oxygen atom. “Amino” refers to compounds of nitrogen that may be considered derived from ammonia and includes primary, secondary and tertiary amines wherein one or more of the hydrogen atoms is replaced with alkyl groups. “THF” refers to tetrahydrofuran, “DMF” refers to N,N-dimethylformamide, “MeOH” refers to methanol, “EtOH” refers to ethanol, “DMAC” refers to N,N-dimethylacetamide, and “TEA” refers to triethylamine.

The term “pesticide” or “pesticidal” refers to insecticide, acaricide or insecticidal and acaricidal, respectively.

The term “pesticidally effective amount” refers to an insecticidally effective amount and an acaricidally effective amount, and as used in the context of the present invention, refers to a rate of application of a compound of the present invention applied to a locus where insect and acarid control is needed. Such a pesticidally effective amount in the context of the present invention is in the range of 10 ppm to 1000 ppm. Of course, one skilled in the art will realize that the pesticidally effective amount may not be the same to control both insects and acarids.

The term “translaminar” as it relates to the present invention refers to the physical ability of a pesticide to enter a plant such as a crop plant through the outer surface of its leaves or through its root system, thereby becoming a presence within the plants' circulatory system. Pesticides, for example insecticides and acaricides that are translaminar may offer an advantage in that they are longer lasting because they are protected within the plant from such deleterious effects as caused by sunlight and rain washoff. Hence, insecticides and acaricides that are translaminar may provide long term residual insecticidal and acaricidal activity. In addition, translaminar insecticides and acaricides are particularly suited for the control of piercing, sucking pests that feed on saps and juices in the plant.

The compounds of the present invention may be synthesized by methods that are individually known to those skilled in the art from intermediate compounds readily available in commerce. As set forth in the preparative examples below, many of the intermediates penultimate to the N-substituted azacyclic derivatives of the present invention are known compounds synthetically prepared in specific references. For example the intermediate penultimate to Compound 6 (Example 2 below) is compound 11 in J. Med. Chem, 1992, 35, 2274-2283. The intermediate penultimate to Compound 396 (Example 3 below) is compound 7b in J. Med. Chem, 1991, 34, 2726-2735. The intermediate penultimate to Compound 402 (Example 1 below) is compound 2o in J. Med. Chem, 1992, 35, 2392-2406. The intermediate penultimate to Compound 407 (Example 4 below) is compound 28 in J. Med. Chem, 1992, 35, 1280-1290. The intermediate penultimate to Compound 685 (Example 6 below) is compound 9b in J. Med. Chem, 1991, 34, 2726-2735. The penultimate intermediates set forth above were converted to the compounds of formula I of the present invention also by methods known to one skilled in the art. The scheme below sets forth one such method:

As depicted in Scheme 1 the known compound 7b was oxidized using meta-chloroperbenzoic acid, yielding a compound of formula I.

The compositions of the present invention are those compositions that are normally employed in the art for facilitating the dispersion of active ingredients for the particular utility desired, recognizing the fact that the composition and mode of application of a toxicant may affect the activity of the material in a given application. Thus, for agricultural use the present pesticidal, i.e., insecticidal and acaricidal compositions may be granules of relatively large particle size, water-soluble or water-dispersible granules, powdery dusts, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, solutions, or as any of several other known types of compositions, depending on the desired mode of application.

These insecticidal and acaricidal compositions may be applied either as water-diluted sprays, or dusts, or granules to the areas in which insect and arachnid control is desired. These compositions may contain as little as 0.1%, 0.2% or 0.5% to as much as 95% or more by weight of active ingredient.

Dusts are free flowing admixtures of the active ingredients with finely divided solids such as talc, natural clays, kieselguhr, flours such as walnut shell and cottonseed flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act as dispersants and carriers for the toxicant; these finely divided solids have an average particle size of less than about 50 microns. A typical dust composition useful herein is one containing 1.0 part or less of the insecticidal and acaricidal compound and 99.0 parts of talc.

Wettable powders are in the form of finely divided particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant. The wettable powder is ultimately applied to the locus where insect and arachnid control is desired either as a dry dust or as an emulsion in water or other liquid. Typical carriers for wettable powders include Fuller's earth, kaolin clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, readily wet, inorganic diluents. Wettable powders normally are prepared to contain about 5-80% of active ingredient, depending on the absorbency of the carrier, and usually also contain a small amount of a wetting, dispersing, or emulsifying agent to facilitate dispersion. For example, a useful wettable powder composition contains 80.8 parts of the insecticidal and acaricidal compound, 17.9 parts of Palmetto clay, and 1.0 part of sodium lignosulfonate and 0.3 part of sulfonated aliphatic polyester as wetting agents.

Other useful compositions for insecticidal and acaricidal applications are emulsifiable concentrates (ECs) which are homogeneous liquid compositions dispersible in water or other dispersant, and may consist entirely of the insecticidal and acaricidal compound and a liquid or solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier, such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, or other non-volatile organic solvent. For insecticidal and acaricidal application these concentrates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated. The percentage by weight of the essential active ingredient may vary according to the manner in which the composition is to be applied, but in general comprises 0.5 to 95% of active ingredient by weight of the insecticidal and acaricidal composition.

Flowable compositions are similar to ECs except that the active ingredient is suspended in a liquid carrier, generally water. Flowables, like ECs, may include a small amount of a surfactant, and contain active ingredient in the range of 0.5 to 95%, frequently from 10 to 50%, by weight of the composition. For application, flowables may be diluted in water or other liquid vehicle, and are normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated.

Typical wetting, dispersing, or emulsifying agents used in agricultural compositions include, but are not limited to, the alkyl and alkylaryl sulfonates and sulfates and their sodium salts; alkylaryl polyether alcohols; sulfated higher alcohols; polyethylene oxides; sulfonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils; fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide addition products of such esters; and the addition product of long-chain mercaptans and ethylene oxide. Many other types of useful surface-active agents are available in commerce. The surface-active agents, when used, normally comprise from 1 to 15% by weight of the composition.

Other useful compositions include suspensions of the active ingredient in a relatively non-volatile solvent such as water, corn oil, kerosene, propylene glycol, or other suitable solvents.

Still other useful compositions for insecticidal and acaricidal applications include simple solutions of the active ingredient in a solvent in which it is completely soluble at the desired concentration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or other organic solvents. Granular compositions, wherein the toxicant is carried on relatively coarse particles, are of particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration of cover crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, typically aerosols wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided form as a result of vaporization of a low boiling dispersant solvent carrier, such as carbon dioxide, propane, or butane, may also be used. Water-soluble or water-dispersible granules are also useful compositions for insecticidal and acaricidal application of the present compounds. Such granular compositions are free-flowing, non-dusty, and readily water-soluble or water-miscible. The soluble or dispersible granular compositions described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,920,442 are useful herein with the present insecticidal and acaricidal compounds. In use by the farmer on the field, the granular compositions, emulsifiable concentrates, flowable concentrates, solutions, etc., may be diluted with water to give a concentration of active ingredient in the range of say 0.1% or 0.2% to 1.5% or 2%.

The active insecticidal compounds of this invention may be formulated and/or applied with one or more second compounds. Second compounds include, but are not limited to, other pesticides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, soil conditioners, or other agricultural chemicals.

The methods of the present invention are predicated on causing an insecticidal or acaricidal amount of a compound of Formula I to be present within insects or acarids and, thereby, killing or controlling the insects or acarids. It is possible and is within the scope of the invention to cause a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent amino (NH₂) to be present within insects or acarids by contacting the insects or acarids with a derivative of that compound, which derivative is converted within the insects or acarids to a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent amino. Such compounds, which can be referred to as pro-insecticides, include compounds containing an R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ substituent that can be converted to NH₂ by chemical processes, such as hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction, and the like, that are either enzymatic or non-enzymatic in nature. Suitable substituents include N-acylamino, N-substituted imino, and N-sulfenyl amino groups, and the like. Some examples, wherein hydrocarbyl refers to an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon moiety optionally substituted with halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, cyano, or nitro, or the like, are illustrated below:

NH—CO(hydrocarbyl); NH—CH(OH)(hydrocarbyl); NH—CO₂(hydrocarbyl); N═CH(hydrocarbyl); NH—CO—NH(hydrocarbyl); NH—S(hydrocarbyl); NH—COCO₂(hydrocarbyl); NH—S—N(hydrocarbyl)₂; NH—C(S-(hydrocarbyl))=N(hydrocarbyl); NH—CH(O-(hydrocarbyl))(hydrocarbyl)

Compounds containing such substituents can be prepared from compounds of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent NH₂ by well established methods known to those in the art. For example, N-acyl derivatives can be prepared by treatment with an acyl halide or anhydride, N-substituted imino derivatives can be prepared by treatment with aldehydes, urea derivatives can be prepared by treatment with isocyanates, N-sulfenyl derivatives can be prepared by treatment with a sulfenyl chloride, carbamate derivatives can be prepared by treatment with a chloroformate ester, and isothiourea derivatives can be prepared by treatment with first an isothiocyanate and then a hydrocarbyl halide.

It is further possible and within the scope of the invention to cause a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent hydroxy (OH) to be present within insects or acarids by contacting the insects or acarids with a derivative of that compound, which derivative is converted within the insects or acarids to a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent hydroxy. Such compounds are also pro-insecticides. Suitable compounds include compounds containing an R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ substituent that can be converted to OH by chemical processes, such as hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction, and the like, that are either enzymatic or non-enzymatic in nature. Typical substituents include acyloxy, carbamoyloxy, and carbonyl. Some examples, wherein hydrocarbyl refers to an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon moiety optionally substituted with halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, cyano, or nitro, or the like are illustrated below:

O—CO(hydrocarbyl; O—CH₃; O—CO₂(hydrocarbyl); O—C(CH₃)₂—O-hyrdocarboyl; O—C(O)—N(hydrocarbyl)₂; O—CH₂OCH₃; O—C(O)—NH₂; O—CH₂CH═CH₂; O—SO₃⁻M⁺; O—PO₃⁻M⁺

Compounds of these types can be prepared from compounds of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent OH by methods well established in the art. For example, acyloxy derivatives may be prepared by treatment with acid halides or anhydrides; carbamoyloxy derivatives can be prepared by treatment with a carbamoyl chloride; and carbonyl derivatives can be prepared by treatment with a carbonate or chloroformate.

It is further possible and within the scope of the invention to cause a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent mercapto or thiol (SH) to be present within insects or acarids by contacting the insects or acarids with a derivative of that compound, which derivative is converted within the insects or acarids to a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent mercapto. Such compounds are also pro-insecticides. Suitable compounds include compounds containing an R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ substituent that can be converted to SH by chemical processes, such as hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction, and the like, that are either enzymatic or non-enzymatic in nature. Typical substituents include acylthio and hydrocarbyloxyalkylthio, wherein hydrocarbyl refers to an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon moiety optionally substituted with halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, cyano, or nitro, or the like. Some examples are illustrated below:

• • S—C(O)-hydrocarbyl; S—CH₂O₂C(hydrocarbyl); S—CH₃; S—C(O)-aryl

Compounds of these types can be prepared from a compound of Formula I wherein R⁵, R⁶ and R⁷ represent SH by methods well established in the art. For example, acylthio derivatives may be prepared by treatment with acyl halides or anhydrides and hydrocarbyloxyalkylthio derivatives may be prepared by treatment with a hydrocarbylheteroalkyl halide.

Certain N-Substituted azacyclic compounds where the N-substituent is O⁻ (the N-oxides) of the present invention were tested to determine their translaminar characteristics as evidenced by activity against cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii) in comparison with their corresponding free amine derivatives. These tests were conducted in the following manner: For each compound tested, one cotton plant with two mature leaves was selected. On the top of one of the leaves a sticky material used for trapping insects was applied using a stamp of about 2.5 centimeters in diameter. The process was repeated on the bottom of the second leaf of the cotton plant. A solution of 500 ppm of test compound (dissolved in 1:1 acetone and water containing a small amount of surfactant) was then applied to the entire side of each leaf opposite the side stamped with the sticky material using a saturated cotton swab. Upon completion of the application of the test compounds, the cotton plants were maintained in a growth chamber for about 18 hours. After this time the leaves of the test plant were infested with a known number of cotton aphids by placing an infested leaf cutting from the cotton aphid colony directly over the sticky material on each leaf. The leaf cutting on the bottom of a leaf of the test plant was secured to the leaf with a pin. The treated and infested cotton plants were then maintained in a chamber, during which time they were evaluated at daily intervals of from one to up to eight days. A test compound was termed active (A) if the top and bottom of the leaves of the test plant were mostly free of aphids (80% to 100%) when compared to untreated controls. A test compound was termed somewhat active (SA) if 50% to 80% of the aphids were eliminated, and inactive (I) if less than 50% of the aphids were eliminated. The results of these tests are set forth below:

The N-oxides and their corresponding free amines that were tested are set forth below:

As taught in Table 2, above the N-oxide derivatives of the present invention exhibit improved insecticidal activity against cotton aphid when compared to their free amine analogs. The improved insecticidal activity is believed to be the result of the unexpected translaminar properties attributed to the N-oxides. For example, Compound 396 provided 100% mortality throughout the seven-day test period. In contrast, its free amine derivative, Compound B, provided less than 50% mortality of cotton aphid.

Certain N-Substituted azacyclic compounds where the N-substituent is O⁻ (the N-oxides) of the present invention were also tested to determine their residual insecticidal activity. These tests were conducted in the following manner:

For each rate of application of test compound, a 15 mL aliquot of test solution was prepared. Sufficient test compound was dissolved in 1.5 mL of acetone to provide an application rate as high as 1200 grams/Ha. Each solution was then added to 13.5 mL of water containing 300 ppm of a surfactant. There were four replicates for each rate of application of test compound, and all tests included a known chemical standard as well as a standard of water and untreated checks.

A maximum of 14 appropriately sized cotton plants for each rate of application and replicate were arranged in a 28 pot plastic flat and sprayed with the 15 mL sample of test compound using an traveling boom sprayer equipped with a cone spray tip at a rate of 30 gallons/acre under a pressure of 40-44 psi. The untreated checks were sprayed first, followed by the test compounds and standards, all in order of lowest to highest rates of application. Once the spraying was complete, the test plants were allowed to air-dry on the conveyor on which they were sprayed.

In the test to determine residual activity (0 Day Residual) one set of dry plants was infested with leaf cuttings covered with about 25 cotton aphids taken from cotton plants in an aphid colony. The cotton plants were then maintained in a greenhouse or in an atmosphere of simulated direct sunlight for 72 hours after which time cotton aphid mortality was determined.

A second set of dry test plants treated with test compounds were maintained for three days (3 Day Residual), then infested with cotton aphid. The infested plants were maintained and evaluated for cotton aphid mortality after 72 hours as set forth above. Other residual activity periods are optionally evaluated also, for example a 5 day residual.

At the end of the 72 hour exposure period the numbers of live insects were counted a percent mortality of aphids was calculated based on the number of live insects present and the number that were infested onto the plants. The results of these tests are set forth below:

As indicated by the results in Tables 3 and 4 above, the N-oxide derivatives of the present invention exhibit improved residual insecticidal activity against cotton aphid when compared to their free amine analogs, as a result of the unexpected translaminar properties attributed to the N-oxides. For example, in Table 3, Compound 396 provided 99% mortality in cotton aphid at a rate of application of 224 g/ha when the test plants were infested with the aphid at 3 days post-treatment. In contrast the corresponding free amine, Compound B, provided only 21% mortality at the same rate of application and time interval. In Table 4, Compound 396, as well as Compound 402, continue to provide unexpected residual insecticidal activity at the lower rates of application of 112 g/ha and 56 g/ha and a longer residual interval of 5 days.

While the invention has been described in detail and with reference to specific embodiments thereof, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the following claims.
