Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a novel substituted thiophene derivative, an agricultural and horticultural fungicide containing the same as in active ingredient and a method for controlling plant disease by the same.
2) Description of Related Art
Recently developed fungicides having selective mechanism of action differ from conventionally used, nonselective fungicides for exhibiting steady effect at low dosage. However, the recent fungicides have a problem of developing chemical tolerance and leading to reduction of efficacy. For example, a benzimidazole fungicide has a broad fungicidal spectrum and exhibits excellent effect also on gray mold disease. However, such fungicide caused a drastic reduction of efficacy due to appearance of a resistant fungus against said fungicide in the 1970's. A dicarboxyimide fungicide was focused attention as a replacement of the benzimidazole fungicide. Nevertheless, a resistant fungus also appeared against the dicarboxyimide fungicide in the 1980's. Consequently, the lack of the counter measure for controlling the resistant fungus of gray mold disease has become a serious problem in Japan and also in the world.
On the other hand, an azole fungicide has a broad fungicidal spectrum and is an excellent pesticide which exhibits efficacy at a previously unknown low dosage particularly for powdery mildew disease and rust disease of various crops and scab disease of apple and pear. However, a resistant fungus against this fungicide has recently appeared and also led to a problem of a sharp fall of the fungicide efficacy. Such occurence of fungicide resistant fungus has become an inevitable problem for the selective fungicide, and accordingly development of a new fungicide is now an urgent subject.
Many aromatic aniline derivatives have conventionally been known to have fungicidal activity. For example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Hei 5-221994 and 6-199803 have disclosed that various aniline derivatives have efficacy for gray mold disease. The present inventors have tested fungicidal activity against various plant-pathogenic fungi on the compounds disclosed in these patents. However, the disease control effect was low even in the case of gray mold disease and no efficacy was observed at all on powdery mildew disease and brown rust disease.
Consequently, the object of the invention is to provide a novel agricultural and horticultural fungicide which has a broad spectrum for pathogenic fungus of various crops and can also solve the resistant fungus which has become a serious problem.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
As a result of an intensive research on the bioactivity of various heterocyclic amine derivatives, the present inventors have found that some kinds of aminothiophene derivative have powerful controlling effect on various plant disease and exhibit excellent controlling activity for not only a sensitive fungus but a resistant fungus of benzimidazole and dicarboxyimide fungicides, and further for the sensitive fungus and resistant fungus of an azole fungicide and that such aminothiophene derivative has high safety for crops and consequently can attain the above object.
