Description

The present invention relates to and has for its objects the provision of particular new pyrimidine (4,6)diyl-bis-(thiono) (thiol)-phosphoric(phosphonic) acid esters which possess insecticidal or acaricidal properties, active compositions in the form of mixtures of such compounds with solid and liquid dispersible carrier vehicles, and methods for producing such compounds and for using such compounds in a new way especially for combating pests, e.g. insects and acarids, with other and further objects becoming apparent from a study of the within specification and accompanying examples.
It is known that certain pyrimidinyl(thiono)-phosphoric acid esters, for example 0,0-diethyl-0-[2-isopropyl-4-methylpyrimidin(6)yl]-(Compound A) and 0,0-diethyl-0-[2-methyl-mercapto-4-methyl-pyrimidin(6)yl]-thionophosphoric acid ester(Compound B) (U.S. Pat. No. 2,754,243 and German Patent Specification No. 910,652), as well as bis-(thiono)-phosphoric acid esters, for example 4,4'-dihydroxy-diphenylsulfide(Compound C) and 4,4'-dihydroxy-diphenyldisulfide-0,0'-bis-thionophosphoric acid 0,0-diethyl ester(Compound D) (German Patent Specification Nos. 1,170,401, 1,197,878), possess insecticidal and acaricidal properties.
The present invention provides pyrimidine(4,6)diyl-bis(thiono)(thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic) acid esters of the general formula ##STR2## in which R is alkyl with 1 to 6 carbon atoms,
R.sub.1 is alkyl, alkoxy or alkylmercapto each with 1 to 6 carbon atoms or phenyl,
R.sub.2 is alkyl, alkoxy or alkylmercapto each with 1 to 5 carbon atoms, hydrogen or phenyl,
R.sub.3 is hydrogen, alkyl with 1 to 4 carbon atoms or halogen, and
X is oxygen or sulfur.
Preferably R is straight-chain or branched alkyl with 1 to 5 carbon atoms, R.sub.1 is alkyl, alkoxy or alkylmercapto each with 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or phenyl, R.sub.2 is straight-chain or branched alkyl, alkoxy or alkylmercapto each with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, hydrogen or phenyl, and R.sub.3 is hydrogen, straight-chain or branched alkyl with 1 to 3 carbon atoms, fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine.
Surprisingly, the pyrimidine(4,6)diyl-bis-(thiono) (thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic) acid esters according to the invention exhibit a better leaf-insecticidal and soil-insecticidal action, and a better acaricidal action, than the corresponding compounds of analogous structure and of the same type of action previously known from the art. Accordingly, the products according to the present invention represent a genuine enrichment of the art.
The invention also provides a process for the production of a pyrimidine (4,6)diyl-bis-(thiono)(thiol)phosphoric (phosphonic) acid ester of the formula (I) in which a (thiono) (thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic)acid ester halide of the general formula ##STR3## in which R, R.sub.1 and X have the abovementioned meanings and
Hal denotes halogen, preferably chlorine,
is reacted with a 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivative of the formula ##STR4## in which R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have the abovementioned meanings,
in the presence of an acid acceptor, or in the form of a dialkali metal salt, dialkaline earth metal salt or diammonium salt.
If, for example, 0,0-diethyl-thionophosphoric acid diester chloride and 2-isopropyl-4,6-dihydroxy-5-chloropyrimidine are used as starting materials, the course of the reaction can be represented by the following formula scheme: ##STR5##
The (thiono)(thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic) acid ester halides (II) to be used as starting materials are known from the literature and can be prepared in accordance with generally customary processes.
The following may be mentioned as individual examples: O,O-dimethyl-, O,O-diethyl-, O,O-di-n-propyl-, O,O-di-iso-propyl-, O,O-di-n-butyl-, O,O-di-iso-butyl-, O,O-di-sec.- butyl and O,O-di-tert.-butyl-phosphoric acid ester chloride and the corresponding thiono analogues, as well as O-ethyl-, O-n-propyl-, O-iso-propyl-, O-n-butyl-, O-iso-butyl-, O-sec.- butyl-, O-tert.-butyl-, O-n-pentyl-, O-n-hexyl-, O-n-heptyl-, O-n-octyl- and O-n-nonyl-O-methyl- and -O-ethyl-phosphoric acid ester chloride and the corresponding thiono analogues, and also O-methyl-, -ethyl-, O-n-propyl-, O-iso-propyl-, O-n-butyl-, O-sec.-butyl-, O-iso-butyl- and O-tert.-butyl-methane-, -ethane-, -n-propane-, -iso-propane-, -butane- and -benzene-phosphonic acid ester chloride and the corresponding thiono analogues, as well as O,S-dimethyl-, O,S-diethyl-, O,S-di-n-propyl-, O,S-di-iso-propyl-, O,S-di-n-butyl-, O,S-di-iso-butyl-, O,S-di-sec.-butyl-, O,S-di-tert.-butyl-, O-methyl-S-ethyl-, O-ethyl-S-methyl-, O-ethyl-S-n-propyl- and O-ethyl-S-iso-propyl-thiolphosphoric acid ester chloride and the corresponding thiono analogues.
The 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivatives (III), some of which are new, can be prepared in accordance with processes known from the literature, for example in accordance with one of the following three methods:
a. an optionally substituted malonic acid dialkyl ester is reacted with an amidine, isourea or thiourea derivative in the presence of a base, for example an alkali metal alcoholate, in accordance with the following reaction scheme: ##STR6## wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have the abovementioned meanings,
b. a 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivative of the formula (III), in which
R.sub.2 has the indicated meaning and
R.sub.3 represents hydrogen,
is reacted with elementary halogen in accordance with the following formula scheme: ##STR7## wherein Hal represents chlorine or bromine,
c. a 2-mercapto-4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivative is reacted with an alkyl halide or alkyl sulfate in the presence of an acid acceptor in accordance with the following formula scheme: ##STR8## wherein R' represents alkyl,
Y represents chlorine, bromine, iodine or alkyl-sulfate, and
R.sub.3 has the abovementioned meaning.
The following may be mentioned as individual examples of the 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivatives (III) to be used in accordance with the process of the invention: 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine, 2-methyl-, 2-ethyl-, 2-n-propyl-, 2-iso-propyl-, 2-n-butyl-, 2-iso-butyl-, 2-sec.-butyl-, 2-tert.-butyl-, 2-n-pentyl-, 2-phenyl-, 2-methoxy-, 2-ethoxy-, 2-n-propoxy-, 2-iso-propoxy-, 2-n-butoxy-, 2-iso-butoxy-, 2-sec.-butoxy-, 2-tert.-butoxy-, 2-n-pentoxy-, 2-methylmercapto-, 2-ethylmercapto-, 2-n-propylmercapto-, 2-iso-propylmercapto-, 2-n-butylmercapto-, 2-iso-butylmercapto-, 2-sec.-butylmercapto-, 2-tert.-butylmercapto and 2-n-butylmercapto-4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine and also the corresponding 5-methyl, 5-ethyl, 5-n-propyl, 5-iso-propyl, 5-fluoro, 5-chloro-, 5-bromo and 5-iodo derivatives.
The reaction according to the invention is preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent, which term includes a mere diluent. Practically all inert organic solvents can be used for this purpose. These in particular include aliphatic and aromatic optionally chlorinated hydrocarbons, for example benzene, toluene, xylene, benzine, methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and chlorobenzene; ethers, for example diethyl ether, dibutyl ether and dioxane; ketones, for example acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone; and nitriles, for example acetonitrile and propionitrile.
All customary acid-binding agents can be used as acid acceptors. Alkali metal carbonates and alkali metal alcoholates, such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate, and potassium tert.-butylate, have proved particularly successful, as have aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic amines, for example triethylamine, trimethylamine, dimethylaniline, dimethylbenzylamine and pyridine.
The reaction temperature can be varied within a substantial range. In general, the reaction is carried out at 0.degree. to 120.degree. C, preferably at 40.degree. to 65.degree. C.
In general, the reaction is allowed to take place under normal pressure.
In general, 2 moles of (thiono)(thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic) acid ester chloride (II) are employed per mole of 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivative (III) when carrying out the process. In most cases, the 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine derivative (III) in one of the stated solvents or diluents, if appropriate together with the acid acceptor, is taken and the phosphorus component is added dropwise. After heating for from one to several hours at the stated temperatures, the reaction mixture is poured into an organic solvent, for example toluene, and worked up in the usual manner, for example by separating off the organic phase, washing and drying it and distilling off the solvent.
The new compounds are frequently obtained in the form of oils, which in most cases cannot be distilled without decomposition, but can be freed from the last volatile constituents by so-called "slight distillation", that is to say by prolonged heating under reduced pressure to moderately elevated temperatures, and they can be purified in this way. They are characterized by their refractive index. Some of the compounds are obtained in a crystalline form and have a sharp melting point.
As has already been mentioned, the pyrimidine(4,6)diylbis-(thiono)(thiol)phosphoric(phosphonic) acid esters according to the invention are distinguished by an excellent leaf-insecticidal and soil-insecticidal activity and acaricidal activity. They are active against plant pests, hygiene pests and pests of stored products. They have a good action against both sucking and biting insects and mites.
For this reason, the compounds according to the invention can be employed successfully as pesticides in plant protection and in the hygiene field and the field of protection of stored products.
To the sucking insects there belong, in the main, aphids (Aphididae) such as the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae), the bean aphid (Doralis fabae), the bird cherry aphid (Rhopalosiphum padi), the pea aphid (Macrosiphum pisi) and the potato aphid (Macrosiphum solanifolii), the currant gall aphid (Cryptomyzus korschelti), the rosy apple aphid (Sappaphis mali), the mealy plum aphid (Hyalopterus arundinis) and the cherry blackfly (Myzus cerasi); in addition, scales and mealybugs (Coccina), for example the oleander scale (Aspidiotus hederae) and the soft scale (Lecanium hesperidum) as well as the grape mealybug (Pseudococcus maritimus); thrips (Thysanoptera), such as Hercinothrips femoralis, and bugs, for example the beet bug (Piesma quadrata), the red cotton bug (Dysdercus intermedius), the bed bug (Cimex lectularius), the assassin bug (Rhodnius prolixus) and Chagas' bug (Triatoma infestans) and, further, cicadas, such as Euscelis bilobatus and Nephotettix bipunctatus.

The Diptera comprise essentially the flies, such as the vinegar fly (Drosophila melanogaster), the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata), the house fly (Musca domestica), the little house fly (Fannia canicularis), the black blow fly (Phormia regina) and bluebottle fly (Calliphora erythrocephala) as well as the stable fly (Stomoxys calcitrans); further, gnats, for example mosquitoes such as the yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti), the northern house mosquito (Culex pipiens) and the malaria mosquito (Anopheles stephensi). With the mites (Acari) there are classed, in particular, the spider mites (Tetranychidae) such as the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) and the European rod mite (Paratetranychus pilosus = Panonychus ulmi), gall mites, for example the blackcurrent gall mite (Eriophyes ribis) and tarsonemids, for example the broad mite (Hemitarsonemus latus) and the cyclamen mite (Tarsonemus pallidus); finally ticks, such as the relapsing fever tick (Ornithodorus moubata).
When applied against hygiene pests and pests of stored products, particularly flies and mosquitoes, the process products are also distinguished by an outstanding residual activity on wood and clay, as well as a good stability to alkali on limed substrates.
The active compounds according to the instant invention can be utilized, if desired, in the form of the usual formulations or compositions with conventional inert (i.e. plant compatible or herbicidally inert) pesticide diluents or extenders, i.e. diluents, carriers or extenders of the type usable in conventional pesticide formulations or compositions, e.g. conventional pesticide dispersible carrier vehicles such as gases, solutions, emulsions, suspensions, emulsifiable concentrates, spray powders, pastes, soluble powders, dusting agents, granules, etc. These are prepared in known manner, for instance by extending the active compounds with conventional pesticide dispersible liquid diluent carriers and/or dispersible solid carriers optionally with the use of carrier vehicle assistants, e.g. conventional pesticide surface-active agents, including emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents, whereby, for example, in the case where water is used as diluent, organic solvents may be added as auxiliary solvents. The following may be chiefly considered for use as conventional carrier vehicles for this purpose: aerosol propellants which are gaseous at normal temperatures and pressures, such as Freon; inert dispersible liquid diluent carriers, including inert organic solvents, such as aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, alkyl naphthalenes, etc.), halogenated, especially chlorinated, aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. chlorobenzenes, etc.), cycloalkanes, (e.g. cyclohexane, etc.), paraffins (e.g. petroleum or mineral oil fractions), chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (e.g. methylene chloride, chloroethylenes, etc.), alcohols (e.g. methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, glycol, etc.) as well as ethers and esters thereof (e.g. glycol monomethyl ether, etc.), amines (e.g. ethanolamine, etc.), amides (e.g. dimethyl formamide, etc.), sulfoxides (e.g. dimethyl sulfoxide, etc.), acetonitrile, ketones (e.g. acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, etc.), and/or water; as well as inert dispersible finely divided solid carriers, such as ground natural minerals (e.g. kaolins, clays, alumina, silica, chalk, i.e. calcium carbonate, talc, attapulgite, montmorillonite, kieselguhr, etc.) and ground synthetic minerals (e.g. highly dispersed silicic acid, silicates, e.g. alkali silicates, etc.); whereas the following may be chiefly considered for use as conventional carrier vehicle assistants, e.g. surface-active agents, for this purpose: emulsifying agents, such as non-ionic and/or anionic emulsifying agents (e.g. polyethylene oxide esters of fatty acids, polyethylene oxide ethers of fatty alcohols, alkyl sulfates, alkyl sulfonates, aryl sulfonates, albumin hydrolyzates, etc., and especially alkyl arylpolyglycol ethers, magnesium stearate, sodium oleate, etc.); and/or dispersing agents, such as lignin, sulfite waste liquors, methyl cellulose, etc.
Such active compounds may be employed alone or in the form of mixtures with one another and/or with such solid and/or liquid dispersible carrier vehicles and/or with other known compatible active agents, especially plant protection agents, such as other insecticides and acaricides, or nematocides, fungicides, bactericides, rodenticides, herbicides, fertilizers, growth-regulating agents, etc., if desired, or in the form of particular dosage preparations for specific application made therefrom, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, pastes, and granules which are thus ready for use.
As concerns commercially marketed preparations, these generally contemplate carrier composition mixtures in which the active compound is present in an amount substantially between about 0.1-95% by weight, and preferably 0.5-90% by weight, of the mixture, whereas carrier composition mixtures suitable for direct application or field application generally contemplate those in which the active compound is present in an amount substantially between about 0.0001-10%, preferably 0.01-1%, by weight of the mixture. Thus, the present invention contemplates overall compositions which comprise mixtures of a conventional dispersible carrier vehicle such as (1) a dispersible inert finely divided carrier solid, and/or (2) a dispersible carrier liquid such as an inert organic solvent and/or water, preferably including a surface-active effective amount of a carrier vehicle assistant, e.g. a surface-active agent, such as an emulsifying agent and/or a dispersing agent, and an amount of the active compound which is effective for the purpose in question and which is generally between about 0.0001-95%, and preferably 0.01-95%, by weight of the mixture.
The active compounds can also be used in accordance with the well known ultra-low-volume process with good success, i.e. by applying such compound if normally a liquid, or by applying a liquid composition containing the same, via very effective atomizing equipment, in finely divided form, e.g. average particle diameter of from 50-100 microns, or even less, i.e. mist form, for example by airplane crop spraying techniques. Only up to at most about a few liters/hectare are needed, and often amounts only up to about 15 to 1000 g/hectare, preferably 40 to 600 g/hectare, are sufficient. In this process it is possible to use highly concentrated liquid compositions with said liquid carrier vehicles containing from about 20 to about 95% by weight of the active compound or even the 100% active substance alone, e.g. about 20-100% by weight of the active compound.
Furthermore, the present invention contemplates methods of selectively killing, combating or controlling pests, e.g. insects and acarids, which comprises applying to at least one of correspondingly (a) such insects, (b) such acarids, and (c) the corresponding habitat thereof, i.e. the locus to be protected, e.g. to a growing crop, to a area where a crop is to be grown or to a domestic animal, a correspondingly combative or toxic amount, i.e. insecticidally or acaricidally effective amount, of the particular active compound of the invention along or together with a carrier vehicle as noted above. The instant formulations or compositions are applied in the usual manner, for instance by spraying, atomizing, vaporizing, scattering, dusting, watering, squirting, sprinkling, pouring, fumigating, dressing, encrusting, and the like.
It will be realized, of course, that the concentration of the particular active compound utilized in admixture with the carrier vehicle will depend upon the intended application. Therefore, in special cases it is possible to go above or below the aforementioned concentration ranges.





The unexpected superiority and outstanding activity of the particular new compounds of the present invention are illustrated, without limitation, by the following examples:

critical concentration test/soil insects
Test insect: Tenebrio molitor larvae in the soil
Solvent: 3 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 was mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier was added and the concentrate was diluted with water to the desired concentration.
The preparation of active compound was intimately mixed with the soil. The concentration of the active compound in the preparation was practically immaterial, the only decisive factor being the amount by weight of active compound per unit volume of soil, which is quoted in ppm (= mg/1). The soil was filled into pots and the pots were left to stand at room temperature.
After 24 hours the test insects were introduced into the treated soil and after a further 2 to 7 days the degree of effectiveness of the active compound was determined in % by counting the dead and live test insects. The degree of effectiveness was 100% if all test insects had been killed and was 0% is exactly as many test insects were still alive as in the case of the untreated control.
The active compounds, amounts used and results can be seen from the Table 4 which follows:
