Description

[0001] The invention relates to novel substituted aminosalicylamides, to a plurality of processes for their preparation and to their use as fungicides, and also to novel intermediates and to a plurality of processes for their preparation.

[0002] Certain substituted acylaminosalicylamides, such as, for example, the compounds 3-formamido-salicylanilide 3-(formylamino)-2-hydroxy-N-(phenylmethyl)-benzamide, are already known (compare, for example, Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1993), 1142(3), 262-8, J. Med. Chem. (1990), 33(1), 136-42 or J. Biol. Chem. (1971), 246(23), 7125-30). However, a pesticidal activity of these prior-art compounds has hitherto not been described.

[0003] The present invention, accordingly, provides the novel substituted aminosalicylamides of tie general formula (I),

[0004] in which

[0005] R1 represents hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy,

[0006] Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 and Y5 are identical or different and each represents hydrogen, halogen, cyano, alkyl, halogenoalkyl, alkoxy or halogenoalkoxy, and either

[0007] Y2 or Y3 represents —G—Z,

[0008] in which

[0009] G represents one of the groupings below —Q—CQ—, —CQ—Q—, —CQ—Q—CH2—, —CH2—Q—CQ—, —Q—CQ—CH2—, —Q—CQ—Q—CH2—, —S(O)n—, —CH2—S(O)n—, —CQ—, —S(O)n—CH2—, —C(R3)═N—O—, —C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —N(R4)—, —CQ—N(R4)—, —N(R4)—CQ—, —Q—CQ—N(R4)—, —N═C(R3)—Q—CH2—, —CH2—O—N═C(R3 )—, —C(CH3)-O—N═C(R3 )—, —N(R4)—CQ—Q—, —CQ—N(R4)—CQ—Q—, —N(R4)—CQ—Q—CH2—, —Q—C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —N(R4)—C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —O—CH2—C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —N═N—C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —C(═N—O—R5)—C(R3)═N—O—CH2—, —C(═N—O—R5)—C(R3)—O—N═CH—, —C(═N—O—R5)—C(R3)—O—N═C(CH3)—, —T—Ar1— or —T—Ar1—Q—,

[0012] n represents the numbers 0, 1 or 2,

[0013] Q represents oxygen or sulphur,

[0014] R3 represents hydrogen, cyano or in each case optionally substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylamino, dialkylamino or cycloalkyl, and

[0019] In the definitions, the hydrocarbon chains, such as alkyl, alkylene, alkenyl or alkinyl, are in each case straight-chain or branched, including in combination with heteroatoms, such as an alkoxy, alkylthio or alkylamino.

If the ring contains a plurality of heteroatoms, these can be identical or different. Preferred heteroatoms are oxygen, nitrogen or sulphur. If appropriate, the cyclic compounds form, together with further carbocyclic or heterocyclic, fused-on or bridged rings, a polycyclic ring system. Preference is given to mono- or bicyclic ring systems, in particular to mono- or bicyclic aromatic ring systems.

Suitable solid carriers are: for example ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals such as highly disperse silica, alumina and silicates. Suitable solid carriers for granules are: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite, or else synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shells, maize cobs and tobacco stalks. Suitable emulsifiers and/or foam formers are: for example nonionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl sulphates, arylsulphonates, or else protein hydrolysates. Suitable dispersants are: for example lignin-sulphite waste liquors and methylcellulose.

[0450] Tackifiers such as carboxymethylcellulose and natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or latices, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, or else natural phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins and synthetic phospholipids can be used in the formulations. Other suitable additives are mineral and vegetable oils.

[0451] It is possible to use colourants such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussian Blue, and organic dyestuffs such as alizarin dyestuffs, azo dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dyestuffs, and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.

[0452] The formulations generally comprise between 0.1 and 95 per cent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.

[0453] Depending on their particular physical and/or chemical properties, the active compounds can be converted into the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, foams, pastes, granules, aerosols and microencapsulations in polymeric substances and in coating compositions for seeds, and ULV cool and warm fogging formulations.

[0454] The active compounds according to the invention can be used as such or in their formulations also mixed with known fungicides, bactericides, acaricides, nematicides or insecticides in order thus, for example, to widen the spectrum of action or to prevent development of resistance. In many cases, synergistic effects are achieved, i.e. the activity of the mixture exceeds the activity of the individual components.

USE EXAMPLES

Example A

[0613] Phytophthora Test (Tomato)/Protective

[0614] Solvent: 47 parts by weight of acetone

[0615] Emulsifier: 3 parts by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

[0616] To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amounts of solvent and emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.

[0617] To test for protective activity, young plants are sprayed with the preparation of active compound at the stated application rate. After the spray coating has dried on, the plants are inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension of Phytophthora infestans. The plants are then placed in an incubation cabin at approximately 20° C. and 100% relative atmospheric humidity.

[0618] Evaluation is carried out 3 days after the inoculation. 0% means an efficacy which corresponds to that of the control, whereas an efficacy of 100% means that no infection is observed.

[0619] In this test, for example, the following compounds of Preparation Examples 1, 2 and 4 exhibit, at an exemplary active compound application rate of 100 g/ha, an efficacy of more than 80%, compared with the untreated control.

Example B

[0620] Venturia Test (Apple)/Protective

[0621] Solvent: 47 parts by weight of acetone

[0622] Emulsifier: 3 parts by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

[0623] To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amounts of solvent and emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.

[0624] To test for protective activity, young plants are sprayed with the preparation of active compound at the stated application rate. After the spray coating has dried on, the plants are inoculated with an aqueous conidia suspension of the causative organism of apple scab Venturia inaequalis and then remain in an incubation cabin at approximately 20° C. and 100% relative atmospheric humidity for 1 day.

[0625] The plants are then placed in a greenhouse at approximately 21° C. and a relative atmospheric humidity of approximately 90%.

[0626] Evaluation is carried out 12 days after the evaluation. 0% means an efficacy which corresponds to that of the control, whereas an efficacy of 100% means that no infection is observed.

[0627] In this test, for example, the following compounds of Preparation Examples 1 and 2 exhibit, at an exemplary active compound application rate of 100 g/ha, an efficacy of more than 80%, compared with the untreated control.
