The compounds of formula (I) wherein n is 0 may be prepared by a variety of methods.
They may be prepared, for example, by the reaction of a corresponding thiol compound of formula (XXIII) and an appropriate difluorobut-1-ene alkylating agent of formula (XXIV), where L is a good leaving group. This reaction is preferably conducted in the presence of a mild base such as an alkali metal carbonate, for example sodium or potassium carbonate, in an inert solvent, at a temperature of from 0.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. Conveniently the reaction may be conducted at the reflux temperature of a suitable inert solvent, for example acetone, which has a boiling point within this range.
In formula (XXIV) the leaving group L is preferably a halogen or an ester of sulfonic acid having the formula OSO2Rb, as illustrated by formula (XXV), where Rb is a C1-4 alkyl group or a phenyl group optionally substituted with a C1-4 alkyl group. More preferably, L is bromine as shown in formula (XXVI).
The sulfonic ester of formula (XXV) may be prepared by reaction of 1,4-dibromo-1,1,2-trifluorobutane with the silver salt of the chosen sulfonic acid and debromofluorination of the resulting intermediate, 4-toluenesulfonate ester.
In copending International Patent Application No. PCT/GB94/01570, we disclose a method for preparing the compound of formula (XXVI), namely 4-bromo-1,1-difluorobut-1-ene, in which hydrogen bromide is reacted with commercially available 4-bromo-1,1,2-trifluorobut-1-ene in an inert solvent to give 1,4-dibromo-1,1,2-trifluorobutane. This intermediate can then be treated with a debromofluorinating agent in a suitable solvent, for example acetone or water, to give the compound of formula (XXVI).
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that compounds of the Formula (XXIII) may exist in tautomeric equilibrium between the equivalent mercapto and thione forms. For the sake of convenience, these compounds are referred to herein in their mercapto form unless otherwise stated.
Compounds of Formula (XXIII) are commercially available or may be prepared from commercially available precursors by standard procedures well known in the art.
Alternatively, the compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by reacting a corresponding compound of formula (XXVII), where L is again a good leaving group, with a mercapto compound of formula (XXVIII), under conditions well known in the art for such displacement reactions. Preferably, L is halogen or a nitro group. Conveniently the reaction may be carried out using a two phase solvent system, such as water/dichloromethane, in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst, for example tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide, at ambient-temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere.
The mercapto compound of formula (XXVIII) is conveniently reacted in the form of its S-acetyl or its isothiouronium hydrogen bromide salt, which compounds are readily hydrolysed to the mercapto compound of formula (XXVIII).
The compounds of formula (I) may also be prepared from the corresponding amino compound of formula (XXIX), which can be diazotised, for example with an alkylnitrite, such as tert. butyl nitrite, in the presence of the disulfide of formula (XXX), in a suitable solvent, such as dichloromethane or acetonitrile.
The compounds of formula (I) where n is 1 or 2, may be prepared by oxidising the correspondingly substituted compound of formula (I) when n is 0, using conventional methods, for example by treatment with a suitable oxidising agent in an inert organic solvent. In general, oxidation of a compound of Formula (I) with one equivalent of a suitable oxidising agent provides the corresponding compound wherein n is 1, and oxidation using two equivalents of the oxidising agent provides the corresponding compound wherein n is 2. Suitable oxidising agents include organic and inorganic peroxides such as peroxy carboxylic acids, or their salts, for example, metal-chloroperbenzoic acid, perbenzoic acid, magnesium monoperoxy-phthalic acid or potassium peroxymono-sulfate.
Thus, according to a further aspect of the present invention there is provided a process for the preparation of compounds of formula (I) where n is 1 or 2, which comprises oxidation of the correspondingly substituted compound of formula (I) when n is 0.
As well as the compounds of formula (I) being prepared from the corresponding substituted compounds of formula (XXIII), (XXVII) or (XXIX), it will be appreciated that subsequent functional group transformations may be carried out using known chemistry to obtain the required ring substitution. Examples of such functional group transformations include the reduction of nitro groups to amine groups, halogenation, e.g. chlorination, hydrolysis of an ester to the acid, oxidation of an alcohol to the acid, salt formation.

Benzonitrile (15 g), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (10 g), potassium carbonate (10 g), ethanol (150 cm.sup.3) and water (15 cm.sup.3) were heated to gether at reflux for 6 hours and then allowed to cool overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered and the solid residue washed with ethanol. The filtrate and washings were combined and evaporated and the resultant brown residue partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic phase was separated, washed with brine and dried (MgSO.sub.4). Evaporation gave a brown oil which crystallised on addition of ethyl acetate and hexane to give a grey solid (10.3 g). The solid (4.4 g) was stirred in ether (50 cm.sup.3) and thiophosgene (0.55 cm.sup.3) was added causing a thick white precipitate to form. The reaction was heated at reflux for 1 hour and then allowed to cool. A solution of sodium hydroxide in water (50 cm.sup.3) was then added and the reaction heated for a further 4 hours, then allowed to cool to leave a yellow biphasic reaction mixture. The organic phase was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with ether. The aqueous layer was acidified to pH 1 causing formation of a yellow ppt. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined ethyl acetate layers were dried (MgSO.sub.4) and evaporated to give 5-mercapto-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole as an orange-brown solid (0.554 g), which was used without further purification. .sup.1 H NMR: .delta.7.45-7.63(3H,m); 7.70-7.90(2H,m).
Use of the alternative reagent, 1,1-thiocarbonyldiimidazole, is illustrated by the preparation of 5-mercapto-3-methoxymethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole.
Methoxyacetonitrile (7.1 g), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (7 g), potassium carbonate (13.8 g), ethanol (90 cm.sup.3) and water (9 cm.sup.3) were heated together at 50.degree. C. for 9 hours and then allowed to cool. The reaction mixture was filtered and the white solid residue washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate and washings were combined and evaporated and the resultant residue dissolved in dichloromethane. Insoluble material was removed by filtration and the filtrate evaporated to give a viscous oil (9.2 g). The oil was added to toluene (60 cm.sup.3) and dry dimethylformamide (4 cm.sup.3) containing 1,1-thiocarbonyldiimidazole (5.655 g) and the mixture was stirred at the ambient temperature for 2 hours. After standing for a further 60 hours the beige solid which had formed was recovered by filtration (5.2 g obtainedk) and shown by NMR to be the uncyclised product of reaction between the hydroxy group of the amidoxime and the thiocarbonyl group. A portion of the solid (2 g) was added to a suspension of sodium hydride (0.33 g) in dry dimethylformamide (30 cm.sup.3) (frothing) and the mixture was stirred at the ambient temperature for 5 hours and left to stand for 18 hours. The reaction product was poured into water and the product extracted into ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were sepaerated, dried (MgSO.sub.4) and evaporated under reduced pressure, finally at high vacuum to remove traces of dimethylformamide. The crude 5-mercapto-3-methoxymethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole had .sup.1 H NMR: .delta.3.2(3H,s); 4.10(2H,s); 6.92-6.98(1H,br s) and was used without further purification.

Method A--Preparation of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole.
To a solution of acetic hydrazide (5 g) in ethanol (10 cm.sup.3) was added carbon disulfide (7.7 g) followed by a solution of potassium hydroxide in ethanol (5.7 g in 20 cm.sup.3) which caused a white precipitate to form. The reaction was then stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours and left to stand overnight. The reaction was filtered to give a white solid (11 g). This salt (5 g) was taken up in pyridine (10 cm.sup.3) and the mixture heated under reflux for a total of 14 hours. After cooling, the reaction was acidified and extracted twice with diethyl ether. The ether layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give an orange solid.

The solid which was produced was filtered off, washed with water and dried by washing with diethyl ether, to give a brown solid (2.15 g).

The product of Step 1 (1 g) 4-bromo-4,4-difluorobutyl methanesulfonate (1.65 g) and potassium carbonate (0.852 g) were stirred together in acetone (30 cm.sup.3) at ambient temperature for 36 hours. Inorganic solids were removed by filtration and the filtrate evaporated under reduced pressure to give a brown oil. Chromatography on silica gel using 1:4 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant gave two yellow oils (ea 0.5 g). The first-eluted oil was identified as N-alkylated material and the second was the desired S-alkyated intermediate 4-(4-bromo-4,4-difluorobutylthio)-1,2,3-benzotriazine. .sup.1 H NMR: .delta. 2.18-2.31(2H,m); 2.58-2.71(2H,m); 3.63(2H,t); 7.95(1H,t); 8.09(2H,m); 8.40(1H,d).

The mixture was cooled, then excess ethyl acetate and 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid were added and the organic phase separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases were washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a yellow oil. Chromatography on silica gel using 1:4 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant gave Compound XIX.1 (0.25 g) MH.sup.+ =2.54; .sup.1 H NMR: .delta. 2.60(2H,m); 3.60(2H,t); 4.30-4.40(1H,m); 7.93(1H,t); 8.09(2H,m); 8.39(1H,d); (oil)
EXAMPLE XX.1
Two methods (A and B) of preparing mercapto-1,2,4-triazines required as intermediates for preparation of compounds of the invention are described below.
METHOD A
A general synthesis of 3-mercapto-1,2,4-triazines is by reaction between thiosemicarbazide and a 1,2 di-carbonyl compound. This is illustrated by the preparation of 3-mercapto-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazine.
A solution of sodium bicarbonate (8 g) in water (100 cm.sup.3) was added to a suspension of thiosemicarbazide (8 g) in water (100 cm.sup.3). The resulting solution was cooled below 5.degree. C. and pyruvic aldehyde (40% weight solution in water, (20 cm.sup.3)) was added. The solution was kept at 5.degree. C. for 18 hours, then washed with chloroform (10.times.50 cm.sup.3). The pH of the aqueous layer was adjusted to 2 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The resulting precipitate was filtered off, washed with copious amounts of water and dried, giving an orange solid (4.036 g). The 3-mercapto-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazine was used without further purification in subsequent steps.
The following intermediate mercaptotriazines were prepared following the above procedure. In some cases, ethanol was used as solvent in place of water. The starting materials were commercially available.
(i) 3-mercapto-1,2,4-triazine from glyoxal.
(ii) 3-mercapto-5-propyl-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazine from hexane-2,3-dione. .sup.1 H NMR: .delta. 0.98(3H,t); 1.54-1.68(2H,m); 2.08(3H,s); 3.04(2H,t); 8.2(1H,br s).
(iii) 3-mercapto-5-phenyl-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazine from 1-phenylpropane-1,2-dione.
METHOD B
An alternative method for preparing mercapto-1,2,4-triazines comprises treatment of a corresponding hydroxytriazine (which may exist in various tautomeric forms) with a thiolating reagent such as phosphorous pentasulfide. This following illustrates the preparation of 1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-dithione from 1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-dione (6-azauracil).
6-Azauracil (2 g), phosphorous pentasulfide (15.72 g) and pyridine 50 cm.sup.3 were stirred together and heated under reflux for 56 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool and most of the pyridine was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was agitated with diethyl ether and water and the organic layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with three further portions of diethyl ether and the combined organic phases were washed with saturated aqueous brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4) and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a brown oil which was chromatographed on silica gel, using 1:5 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant. This gave an orange solid (1 g) which was used without further purification. .sup.1 H NMR (DMSO-d.sub.6): .delta. 7.95(1H,s); 13.8-14.1(1H,br s); 14.3-14.6(1H,br s)
3-Mercapto-1,2,4-benzotriazine was prepared from 3-hydroxy-1,2,4-benzotriazine and 6-methyl-1,2,3-triazine-5-(4H)-thione from 6-methyl-1,2,3-triazine-5-(4H)-one following essentially the above procedure.
EXAMPLE XX.2
This Example illustrates the preparation of compounds according to the invention which contain a 1,2,3-triazine substituted with a 4,4-difluorobut-3-enylthio group in the 3, 5 or 6-position, starting from a correspondingly substituted mercaptotriazine and an appropriate difluorobut-1-ene alkylating agent. This is demonstrated by the following preparation of 3-(4,4-difluorobut-3-enylthio)-5-hydroxy-1,2,4-triazine (Compound XX.227) from 6-aza-2-thiouracil and 4,4-difluorobut-3-enyl 4-methyl-benzenesulfonate.
4,4-Difluorobut-3-enyl 4-methyl-benzenesulfonate (1.5 g) and potassium iodide (0.95 g) were stirred in ethanol (5 cm.sup.3) and heated under reflux for three hours then allowed to cool. This part of the procedure converts the starting material to the more chemically reactive and thio-selective alkylating agent, 4-iodo-1,1-difluorobut-1-ene. 6-Aza-2-thiouracil (0.744 g) was added as a solution in 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide (5.73 cm.sup.3) and the reaction mixture stirred at ambient temperature for 70 hours. The reaction was worked up by addition of an excess of 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide and ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was separated and the aqueous layer was washed with more ethyl acetate. These extracts were discarded. The aqueous layer was then acidified to pH4 with 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid. The product was extracted into ethyl acetate (3 portions) and these combined organic layers were washed with water and saturated aqueous brine and dried (MgSO.sub.4). The product was recovered from the solution by evaporation under reduced pressure to give a cream solid (0.659 g). A portion was redissolved in hot ethyl acetate and some insoluble material removed by filtration. Compound XX.227 recovered from solution by evaporation had mp 102.degree.-103.degree. C. M.sup.+ =219; .sup.1 H NMR (DMSO-d.sub.6): .delta. 2.41(2H,m); 3.25(2H,t); 4.55-4.75(1H,m); 7.69 and 7.79(total 1H,ea s, tautomeric protons)
Compound XX.247 was prepared using a related procedure, as follows.
6-Methyl-1,2,3-triazine-5(4H)-thione (0.5 g), 4-bromo-1,1-difluorobut-1-ene (0.673 g) and potassium carbonate (0.543 g) were stirred together in acetone (5 cm.sup.3) for 60 hours at the ambient temperature. Then inorganic material was filtered off and washed with acetone. Solvent was removed from the combined acetone solutions by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residual brown gum was chromatographed on silica, eluting with 20% ethyl acetate in hexane, to give 5-(4,4-difluorobut-3-enylthio)-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazine (Compound XX.247) (0.075 g). M.sup.+ =217; .sup.1 H NMR: .delta. 2.45(2H,m); 2.60(3H,s); 3.29(2H,t); 4.20-4.40(1H,m); 9.11(1H,s); (oil).
EXAMPLE XX.3
When the mercaptotriazine is fully soluble in acetone and carries no other potentially interfering nucleophilic groups a procedure alternative to that of Example XX.2 may be used.
This is illustrated by the following preparation of 3,5-bis-(4,4-difluorobut-3-enylthio)-1,2,4-triazine (Compound XX.231) from 1,2,4-triazine-3,5-(2H,4H)-dithione and 4,4-difluoro-3-butenyl 4-methyl-benzenesulfonate.
1,2,4-Triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-dithione (1 g), 4,4-difluorobut-3-enyl 4-methyl-benzenesulfonate (3.6 g), potassium iodide (1.14 g) and potassium carbonate (0.952 g) were stirred and heated under reflux in acetone (20 cm.sup.3) for 7 hours. The solution was cooled and filtered to remove solids. The filtrate and further acetone washings of the solids were combined and evaporated under reduced pressure to give a brown oil. Chromatography on silica gel using 15:85 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant gave Compound XX.231 (1 g) as an orange oil. M.sup.+ =325; .sup.1 H NMR: .delta. 2.40-2.55(4H,m); 3.25(4H,m); ;4.15-4.40(2H,m); 8.70(1H,s).

Inorganic solids were removed by filtration and the filtrate evaporated under reduced pressure to give a brown oil (1.058 g). Chromatography on silica gel using 1:4 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant gave an orange oil (0.576 g). This was stirred and heated under reflux in trifluoroacetic acid (3 cm.sup.3) for 6 hours to re-cyclise some material which had undergone partial hydrolysis and ring opening. Product was recovered by evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure and chromatography on silica gel and gave 3-(4-bromo-4,4-difluorobutylthio)-5-phenyl-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazine.

1,8-Diazabicyclo�5.4.0! undec-7-ene (DBU) (1 cm.sup.3) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of the product from step 1 (0.5 g) in toluene (10 cm.sup.3). The mixture was kept at ambient temperature for 20 hours, then excess ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous ammonium chloride were added and the organic phase separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases were washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give an orange oil (0.43 g). Chromatography on silica gel using 1:4 ethyl acetate:hexane as eluant gave Compound XX.4 (0.281 g).

4-bromo-4,4-difluorobutyl methanesulfonate (1 g) and thiosemicarbazide (0.475 g) were stirred together and heated under reflux in ethanol (20 cm.sup.3) for 5 hours. GC indicated complete consumption of the methanesulfonate. The mixture was allowed to cool and water (3 cm.sup.3) and sodium bicarbonate (1 g) were added (effervescence). A 40% by weight solution of pyruvic aldehyde (1 cm.sup.3) was then added and the mixture stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. TLC showed that product had formed. It was extracted into ethyl acetate and the organic layer was dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and evaporated to give an oil (1.209 g).

The mixture was allowed to cool overnight, whereupon a crystalline yellow precipitate of the S-alkylated compound was evident. This was not isolated but solvent was removed by evaportion at reduced pressure and the residue (1.3 g) was treated with sodium bicarbonate (0.928 g), water (3 cm.sup.3) and ethanol (20 cm.sup.3). A 40% by weight solution of pyruvic aldehyde (0.9 cm.sup.3) was then added (slight effervescence) and the mixture stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The reaction was poured into water and the product was extracted into ethyl acetate (3 portions). The combined organic phases were dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and evaporated to give a brown gum (0.85 g). Chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 10% ethyl acetate in hexane gave a fraction which was identified as Compound XX.116 (0.05 g) (containing 10% of Compound XX.52 by NMR). Continued elution gave a mixed fraction containing an approximately 1:1 mixture of Compounds XX.52 and XX.116 (0.16 g) and then a fraction identified as Compound XX.52 (0.1 g) (containing 15% of Compound XX.116 by NMR).

The compounds of formula (I) are nematicidal and can be used to control nematodes in plants. Thus, in a further aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of killing or controlling nematodes, which comprises applying a compound of formula (I) to the nematode.
The term "controlling" extends to non-lethal effects which result in the prevention of damage to the host plant and the limitation of nematode population increase. The effects may be the result of chemical induced disorientation, immobilisation, or hatch prevention or induction. The chemical treatment may also have deleterious effects on nematode development or reproduction.

Generally, the compounds may be used to combat and control pest injurious to and/or associated with the transmission of diseases of man and animals. The pest which may be combated and controlled by the use of the compounds of the invention parasitic nematodes of animals, including mammals, which may be found in the gastrointestinal tract, the air passages or blood vessels of the respiratory tract and the heart, together with the associated blood vessels.
The compounds of formula (I) may be used to treat vertebrates, such as mammals (for example, man, pigs, sheep, cattle, equines, cats and dogs), birds (for example, chicken, ducks, turkeys, geese, canaries and budgerigas), and fish (for example, salmon, trout and ornamental fish).
The nematode and other pests may be killed/controlled by applying an effective amount of one or more of the compounds of the present invention to the environment of the pests, to the area to be protected, as well as directly on the pests.
In order to apply the compounds to the locus of the nematode, insect or acarid pest, or to a plant susceptible to attack by the nematode, insect or acarid pest, the compound is usually formulated into a composition which includes in addition to the compound of formula (I) suitable inert diluent or carrier materials, and/or surface active agents. Thus in two further aspects of the invention there is provided a nematicidal, insecticidal or acaricidal composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of formula (I) as defined herein and an inert diluent or carrier material and optionally a surface active agent.
The amount of composition generally applied for the control of nematode pests gives a rate of active ingredient from 0.01 to 10 kg per hectare, preferably from 0.1 to 6 kg per hectare.
The compositions can be applied to the soil, plant, seed, or other area to be protected, to the locus of the pests, or to the habitat of the pests, in the form of dusting powders, wettable powders, granules (slow or fast release), emulsion or suspension concentrates, liquid solutions, emulsions, seed dressings, fogging/smoke formulations or controlled release compositions, such as microencapsulated granules or suspensions.
Dusting powders are formulated by mixing the active ingredient with one or more finely divided solid carriers and/or diluents, for example natural clays, kaolin, pyrophyllite, bentonite alumina, montmorillonite, kieslguhr, chalk, diatomaceous earths, calcium phosphates, calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfur, lime, flours, talc and other organic and inorganic solid carriers.
Granules are formed either by absorbing the active ingredient in a porous granular material for example pumice, attapulgite clays, fuller's earth, kieselguhr, diatomaceous earths, ground corn cobs, and the like, or on to hard core materials such as sands, silicates, mineral carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, or the like. Agents which are commonly used to aid in impregnation, binding or coating the solid carriers include aliphatic and aromatic petroleum solvents, alcohols, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinyl alcohols, ethers, ketones, esters, dextrins, sugars and vegetable oils with the active ingredient. Other additives may also be included, such as emulsifying agents, wetting agents or dispersing agents.
Microencapsulated formulations (microcapsule suspensions CS) or other controlled release formulations may also be used, particularly for slow release over a period of time, and for seed treatment.
Alternatively the compositions may be in the form of liquid preparations to be used as dips, irrigation additives or sprays, which are generally aqueous dispersions or emulsions of the active ingredient in the presence of one or more known wetting agents, dispersing agents or emulsifying agents (surface active agents). The compositions which are to be used in the form of aqueous dispersions or emulsions are generally supplied in the form of an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) or a suspension concentrate (SC) containing a high proportion of the active ingredient or ingredients. An EC is a homogeneous liquid composition, usually containing the active ingredient dissolved in a substantially non-volatile organic solvent. An SC is a fine particle size dispersion of solid active ingredient in water. To apply the concentrates they are diluted in water and are usually applied by means of a spray to the area to be treated. For agricultural or horticultural purposes, an aqueous preparation containing between 0.0001% and 0.1% by weight of the active ingredient (approximately equivalent to from 5-2000 g/ha) is particularly useful.
Suitable liquid solvents for ECs include methyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, xylenes, toluene, chlorobenzene, paraffins, kerosene, white oil, alcohols, (for example, butanol), methylnaphthalene, trimethylbenzene, trichloroethylene, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA).
Wetting agents, dispersing agents and emulsifying agents may be of the cationic, anionic or non-ionic type. Suitable agents of the cationic type include, for example, quaternary ammonium compounds, for example cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide. Suitable agents of the anionic type include, for example, soaps, salts of aliphatic monoesters of sulfuric acid, for example sodium lauryl sulfate, salts of sulfonated aromatic compounds, for example sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, sodium, calcium or ammonium lignosulfonate, or butylnaphthalene sulfonate, and a mixture of the sodium salts of diisopropyl- and triisopropylnaphthalene sulfonates. Suitable agents of the non-ionic type include, for example, the condensation products of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols such as oleyl alcohol or cetyl alcohol, or with alkyl phenols such as octyl phenol, nonyl phenol and octyl cresol. Other non-ionic agents are the partial esters derived from long chain fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, the condensation products of the said partial esters with ethylene oxide, and the lecithins.
These concentrates are often required to withstand storage for prolonged periods and after such storage, to be capable of dilution with water to form aqueous preparations which remain homogeneous for a sufficient time to enable them to be applied by conventional spray equipment. The concentrates may contain 1-85% by weight of the active ingredient or ingredients. When diluted to form aqueous preparations such preparations may contain varying amounts of the active ingredient depending upon the purpose for which they are to be used.
The compounds of formula (I) may also be formulated as powders (dry seed treatment DS or water dispersible powder WS) or liquids (flowable concentrates FS, liquid seed treatment LS), or microcapsule suspensions CS for use in seed treatments. The formulations can be applied to the seed by standard techniques and through conventional seed treaters. In use the compositions are applied to the nematodes, to the locus of the nematodes, to the habitat of the nematodes, or to growing plants liable to infestation by the nematodes, by any of the known means of applying pesticidal compositions, for example, by dusting, spraying, or incorporation of granules.
The compounds of the invention may be the sole active ingredient of the composition or they may be admixed with one or more additional active ingredients such as nematicides or agents which modify the behaviour of nematodes such as hatching factors, insecticides, synergists, herbicides, fungicides or plant growth regulators where appropriate.
Suitable additional active ingredients for inclusion in admixture with the compounds of the invention may be compounds which will broaden the spectrum of activity of the compounds of the invention or increase their persistence in the location of the pest. They may synergise the activity of the compound of the invention or complement the activity for example by increasing the speed of effect or overcoming repellency. Additionally multi-component mixtures of this type may help to overcome or prevent the development of resistance to individual components.
The particular additional active ingredient included will depend upon the intended utility of the mixture and the type of complementary action required. Examples of suitable insecticides include the following:
a) Pyrethroids such as permethrin, esfenvalerate, deltamethrin, cyhalothrin in particular lambda-cyhalothrin, bifenthrin, fenpropathrin, cyfluthrin, tefluthrin, fish safe pyrethroids for example ethofenprox, natural pyrethrin, tetramethrin, s-bioallethrin, fenfluthrin, prallethrin and 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl-(E)-(1R,3S)-2,2-dimethyl-3-(2-oxothiolan-3-ylidenemethyl) cyclopropane carboxylate;
b) Organophosphates such as profenofos, sulprofos, methyl parathion, azinphos-methyl, demeton-s-methyl, heptenophos, thiometon, fenamiphos, monocrotophos, triazophos, methamidophos, dimethoate, phosphamidon, malathion, chloropyrifos, phosalone, terbufos, fensulfothion, fonofos, phorate, phoxim, pyrimiphos-methyl, pyrimiphos-ethyl, fenitrothion or diazinon;
c) Carbamates (including aryl carbamates) such as pirimicarb, cloethocarb, carbofuran, furathiocarb, ethiofencarb, aldicarb, thiofurox, carbosulfan, bendiocarb, fenobucarb, propoxur or oxamyl;
d) Benzoyl ureas such as triflumuron, or chlorofluazuron;
e) Organic tin compounds such as cyhexatin, fenbutatin oxide, azocyclotin;
f) Macrolides such as avemectins or milbemycins, for example such as abamectin, ivemectin and milbemycin;
g) Hormones and pheromones;
h) Organochlorine compounds such as benzene hexachloride, DDT, endosulphan, chlordane or dieldrin;
i) Amidines, such as chlorodimeform or amitraz
j) Fumigant agents;
k) Nitromethylenes such as imidacloprid.
In addition to the major chemical classes of insecticide listed above, other insecticides having particular targets may be employed in the mixture if appropriate for the intended utility of the mixture. For instance selective insecticides for particular crops, for example stemborer specific insecticides for use in rice such as cartap or buprofezin can be employed. Alternatively insecticides specific for particular insect species/stages for example ovo-larvicides such as clofentezine, flubenzimine, hexythiazox and tetradifon, motilicides such as dicofol or propargite, general acaricides such as bromopropylate, chlorobenzilate, or growth regulators such as hydramethylnon, cyromazine, methoprene, chlorofluazuron and diflubenzuron may also be included in the compositions.
Examples of suitable synergists for use in the compositions include piperonyl butoxide, sesamax, safroxan and dodecyl imidazole.
Suitable herbicides, fungicides and plant-growth regulators for inclusion in the compositions will depend upon the intended target and the effect required.
An example of a rice selective herbicides which can be included is propanil, an example of a plant growth regulator for use in cotton is "Pix", and examples of fungicides for use in rice include blasticides such as blasticidin-S. The ratio of the compound of the invention to the other active ingredient in the composition will depend upon a number of factors including type of target, effect required from the mixture etc. However in general, the additional active ingredient of the composition will be applied at about the rate as it is usually employed, or at a slightly lower rate if synergism occurs.
EXAMPLE 1
The activity of compounds of formula (I) according to the invention was determined using a variety of pests. The pests were treated with a liquid composition containing 500 parts per million (ppm) by weight of the compound unless otherwise stated. The compositions were made by dissolving the compound in acetone:ethanol (50:50) mixture and diluting the solutions with water containing 0.05% by weight of a wetting agent sold under the trade name "Synperonic" NP8 until the liquid composition contained the required concentration of the compound. "Synperonic" is a Registered Trade Mark.
The test procedure adopted with regard to each pest was basically the same and comprised supporting a number of the pests on a medium which was usually a host plant or a foodstuff on which the pests feed, and treating either or both the medium and the pests with the compositions. The mortality of the pests was then assessed at periods usually varying from one to three days after the treatment.
The results of the tests are presented in Table A for each of the compounds. The results indicate a grading of mortality designated as A, B or C wherein A indicates less than 40% mortality, B indicates 40-79% mortality and C indicates 80-100% mortality; - indicates that either the compound was not tested or no meaningful result was obtained.
Information regarding the pest species, the support medium or food, and the type and duration of the test is given in Table B. The pest species is designated by a letter code.

Application rates are shown in the Table heading for each test type. The test procedure for test MPb (Myzus persicae, systemic) was as follows:
Upward systemicity of the test compounds was evaluated against the peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae by soil drenching 2-3 week old radish plants (cv. Cherrybelle) at 10 ppm or 2.5 ppm. Plants with 1st true leaves approximately 2.times.1 cm were used. The cotyledons, growing point and 1 true leaf were removed. The soil was covered with a clear lid. 12-18 mature aphids were added to each plant 1 day before treatment. On the treatment day, each pot was placed in a 250 cm.sup.3 plastic pot with a fluon band to prevent aphid escape. Each pot was treated with 10 cm.sup.3 of chemical in aqueous solution (prepared in 1% ethanol and acetone (1:1) and 0.01% Synperonic NP8--ICI Chemicals and Polymers). Each treatment was replicated 3 times. The treated plants were transferred to a constant environment room at 20.degree. C., 60% relative humidity and a 16 hour photoperiod. The mortality was assessed at 3 and 5 days after treatment.
Activity against the root know nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (MI), was evaluated by applying the candidate nematicide as a drench solution to 2 week old cucumber plants (cultivar Telegraph) and infesting the soil with nematodes. 10 cm.sup.3 of an aqueous solution of the test compound, (prepared in 1% ethanol and acetone (1:1) and 0.05% Synperonic NP8--ICI Chemicals & Polymers) was added to each plant such that the final soil concentration was 2 ppm. Each treatment was replicated twice. The cucumber plants were inoculated 48 hours after treatment with a 2 cm.sup.3 suspension of freshly hatched juveniles at a concentration of 350 nematodes per cm.sup.3. The test was maintained at 25.degree. C. with a 16 hour photoperiod for 9 days. The roots of each plant were assessed for percentage root-knot reduction relative to an untreated, infested control and the results are recorded in Table C as % knot reduction compared to the control.
The results in Table C for the four species other than MI are expressed as % Control observed. A dash indicates that either the compound was not tested or that no meaningful result was obtained.
