## Background
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a §371 National Stage Application of PCT/EP2012/075269, filed Dec. 12, 2012, which claims priority to EP 11194855.0, filed Dec. 21, 2011.
BACKGROUND
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel N-arylamidine-substituted trifluoroethyl sulfide derivatives, to their use as acaricides and insecticides for controlling animal pests and to processes and intermediates for their preparation.
Description of Related Art
Various substituted N-arylamidines and their insecticidal and acaricidal action have already been described in the literature in WO 2007/131680.
On application, the active compounds already known from the publications mentioned above have disadvantages, be it that they may have no or else only insufficient insecticidal and/or acaricidal activity against animal pests, in particular at relatively low application rates.
SUMMARY
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide corresponding N-arylamidine-substituted trifluoroethyl sulfide derivatives which can be employed as insecticides and/or acaricides with satisfactory insecticidal and/or acaricidal activity against animal pests, in particular at relatively low application rates, with high selectivity and improved compatibility in crops of useful plants.
The present invention now provides novel compounds of the formula (I)

Preparation Processes
The compounds of the general formula (I) can be prepared by the methods described in the application WO 2007/131680. Alternatively to these described methods, the compounds of the formula (I) can also be prepared by process A, process B, process C, process E, process F, process G, process H, process I, process J and process K. Process D provides an alternative to the preparation of the precursors.
A number of general processes for preparing amidines are described in S. Patai and Z. Rappoport, The Chemistry of Amidines and Imidates, Vol. 27, John Wiley & Sons, New York, N.Y., USA, 1991.
Also described in the literature are palladium(II)-catalyzed syntheses of arylamidines with the aid of trifluoroborates, see, for example, J. Sävmarker, Ph.D. thesis University of Uppsala, 2012 or J. Sävmarker, Org. Lett. 14 (2012), 2394-2397.
Process A




where X1, X2, X3, X4, R1, R2 and R3 have the meanings given above, AG represents a leaving group and PG represents a protective group.
Anilines of the formula (VII) are either commercially available or they can be prepared by known methods. In the presence of acids, acid anhydrides or acid chlorides of the formula (VIII), the anilines (VII) are converted into the corresponding anilides (VI). Chlorosulfonation of the anilides (VI) with chlorosulfonic acid affords the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides (V). Reduction of the sulfonyl chlorides (V) to the disulfides (IV) can be carried out using methods known from the literature such as iron in hydrochloric acid or iodide. Reaction of the disulfides (IV) with trifluoroethyl electrophiles of the formula (XVI) where AG represents a leaving group such as, for example, chlorine, bromine, tosylate, mesylate or triflate affords the sulfides (III).
The anilides (III) are chlorinated, for example with diphenyl chlorophosphate or phosphorus pentachloride, to give imidoyl chlorides of the formula (II) and reacted with amines to give amidines (Ia).
The thioethers (Ia) are converted into the corresponding sulfoxides (Ib) by reaction with oxidizing agents such as, for example, meta-chloroperbenzoic acid.
The oxidation of compounds of the formula (Ia) to compounds of the formula (Ib) can be performed using an oxidizing agent in a suitable solvent and diluent. Suitable oxidizing agents are, for example, dilute nitric acid, hydrogen peroxide and peroxycarboxylic acids such as meta-chloroperbenzoic acid. Suitable solvents are inert organic solvents, typically acetonitrile and halogenated solvents such as dichloromethane, chloroform or dichloroethane.
A large number of different methods are suitable for generating enantiomerically enriched sulfoxides, as described by A. R. Maguire in ARKIVOC, 2011(i), 1-110 or by WO2011/006646: metal-catalyzed asymmetric oxidations of thioethers, for example with titanium and vanadium as the most frequently employed catalyst sources, in the form of Ti(OiPr4) and VO(acac)2, together with a chiral ligand and an oxidizing agent such as tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP), 2-phenylpropan-2-yl hydroperoxide (CHP) or hydrogen peroxide; non-metal-catalyzed asymmetric oxidations employing chiral oxidizing agents or chiral catalysts; electrochemical or biological asymmetric oxidations and also kinetic resolution of sulfoxides and nucleophilic shift (according to Andersen's method).
The enantiomers can also be obtained from the racemate, for example by separating them on a preparative scale by chiral HPLC.
The compounds of the formulae (II), (III), (IV) and (V) in process A can be prepared in particular under the conditions mentioned in the Preparation Examples.
Alternatively, the thioethers of the formula (III) can be prepared by process B.
Process B




where X1, X2, X3, X4 and R3 have the meanings given above, AG represents a leaving group and PG represents a protective group.
The anilines (VII) can be protected with a suitable protective group known from the literature such as, for example, an acetyl group, to give compounds of the formula (XVI). Chlorosulfonation of the compounds of the formula (XVI) with chlorosulfonic acid affords the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides (XV). Reduction of the sulfonyl chlorides (XV) to the disulfides (XIV) can be carried out using methods known from the literature such as iron in hydrochloric acid or iodide. Reaction of the disulfides (XIV) with trifluoroethyl electrophiles of the formula (IX) where AG represents a leaving group such as, for example, chlorine, bromine, tosylate, mesylate or triflate affords the sulfides (XIII). The protective group is removed by suitable methods known from the literature, giving anilines of the formula (X). The latter are converted in the presence of acids, acid anhydrides or acid chlorides of the formula (VIII) into the corresponding anilides (III).
Instead of the reduction to the disulfide (XIV), it is also possible to reduce with a suitable reducing agent such as, for example, iodine/phosphorus to give the alkyl thioate (XI), which is then deprotected using a suitable method, for example with potassium hydroxide solution, to afford compounds of the formula (X). Reaction of the thiols (XI) with trifluoroethyl electrophiles of the formula (IX) where AG represents a leaving group such as, for example, chlorine, bromine, tosylate, mesylate or triflate affords the sulfides (X). The latter are converted in the presence of acids, acid anhydrides or acid chlorides of the formula (VIII) into the corresponding anilides (III).
The compounds of the formulae (III), (X), (XI), (XII), (XV) and (XVI) in process B can be prepared in particular under the conditions mentioned in the Preparation Examples.
Process C

Furthermore it has been found that chiral compounds (Ib) are obtained by process C when compounds of the formula (III) are chirally oxidized to sulfoxides of the formula (XVII).
The anilides (XVII) are chlorinated, for example with diphenyl chlorophosphate or phosphorus pentachloride, to give imidoyl chlorides of the formula (XVIII) and reacted with amines to give amidines (Ib).
Some of the compounds of the formula (XVII) in process C are novel, and they can be prepared in particular under the conditions mentioned in the Preparation Examples.
Process D
Alternatively, the thioethers of the formula (X) can be prepared by process D.




X2, X4 independently of one another may particularly preferably represent hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine.
Chlorosulfonation of the nitroaromatics of the formula (XIX) with chlorosulfonic acid affords the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides (XX). Reduction of the sulfonyl chlorides (XX) to the bis(nitroaryl) disulfides (XXI) can be carried out using methods known from the literature, for example iodide. Reduction of the disulfides (XXI) to the disulfanediyldianilines (XXII), some of which are formed as a mixture with the corresponding aminoarylthiols (XI), is possible using reducing agents such as, for example, hydrogen with the aid of heterogeneous catalysts such as, for example, Raney nickel, platinum on activated carbon or palladium on activated carbon. Reaction of the disulfides (XXII) or thiophenols (XI) with trifluoroethyl electrophiles of the formula (IX) where AG represents a leaving group such as, for example, chlorine, bromine, iodine, tosylate, mesylate or triflate affords the 3-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)sulfanyl]anilines of the formula (X).

where X1, X2, X3, X4 and R2 have the meanings given above.
Anilines of the formula (X) can be reacted directly by reaction with isocyanates (XXV, A=O) or isothiocyanates (XXV, A=S) to give the cyclic amidines of the formula (Ia-c). In the case of intermediate isolation of the (thio)ureas of the formula (XXVI), these can be converted in the presence of bases into the cyclic amidines of the formula (Ia-c).
In the patent JP2011/042611, (thio)ureas and their sulfoxides are claimed as acaricides. The (thio)ureas of the formula (XXVI) are novel and also form part of the subject matter of the invention.
The sulfoxides of the formula (Ib-c) can be obtained by oxidation of the thioethers (Ia-c) by methods known from the literature.
The thioethers (Ia-c) and the sulfoxides (Ib-c) can then be converted by methods known from the literature into the compounds of the general formulae (Ia-d) and (Ib-d), respectively, where R2 may have the meanings given above.

R7 and R8 are the substituents at the ring formed by R1 and R3 together with the atoms to which they are attached.
Anilines of the formula (XXVIII) can be prepared by oxidation of the anilines of the formula (X), for example with meta-chlorobenzoic acid as oxidizing agent in an inert organic solvent. The anilines of the formula (XXVIII) are novel and also form part of the subject matter of the invention.
Anilines of the formula (X) and (XXVIII) can be converted into the ureas of the formulae (XXVII) and (XXIX), respectively, by methods known from the literature, for example according to JP2011/042611, by treating them with isocyanates, optionally in the presence of a base and optionally in the presence of an organic solvent. Alternatively, these anilines can be converted by generally known methods into their isocyanates, which are then converted with amines into the ureas.
The 3-substituted 2-aryliminooxazoles (Ia-e) and (Ib-e) can be synthesized from ureas (XXVII) and (XXIX), respectively, for example by the method of M. Han in Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 2012, 33(4), 1371-1374, where initially, using carbon tetrachloride and triphenylphosphine, an N′-substituted N-arylimidoformamide is prepared which is then reacted with an adequate hydroxycarbonyl compound under Ku(I) catalysis in an inert high-boiling solvent to yield selectively the 2-aryliminooxazole.
The sulfoxides (Ib) can be obtained by oxidation of the thioether (Ia) by methods known from the literature.
These 2-aryliminooxazoles (I) can also be synthesized directly from the anilines of the formula (X) or (XXVIII), for example by reaction with 3-alkyl-1,3-oxazolinethiones of the formula (J) or their oxazolium salts, optionally in the presence of a base and optionally in an inert solvent, generally at high temperatures, as described by Gompper in Chem. Ber. 1959, 92, 1928-1932.




3-Substituted 1,3-oxazolinethiones of the formula (J) can be obtained from commercial sources or be prepared by methods known from the literature, for example from dicarbonyl compounds of the formula (G) via the synthesis intermediates (H), analogously to the procedures of K. N. Mehrotra in Bull. Chem. Soc. Jap. 1985, 58 (8), 2399-2402 for R7═R8=aryl, using carbon disulfide as sulfur source.
The oxazoliium salts of the formula (K) can be prepared by alkylation of the corresponding oxazolinethiones of the formula (J). Suitable alkylating agents are, for example, alkyl halides (alkyl chlorides, alkyl bromides and alkyl iodides), alkyl triflates, alkyl mesylates and dialkyl sulfates. The nature of the anion X in the general formula (K) is determined by this agent and can be, for example, chloride, bromide, iodide, triflate, mesylate or sulfate.

Process H
The 3-substituted 2-aryliminothiadiazoles of the general formula (I) can be prepared, for example, by process H

Anilines of the general formula (X) or the general formula (XXVIII) can be reacted, for example, with thiadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXX) or with the corresponding thiadiazolium salts of the formula (XXXI) to give the 2-aryliminothiadiazoles of the formula (Ia-f) and (Ib-f), respectively. This succeeds optionally in the presence of a base, optionally in an inert solvent or in an agent that can simultaneously serve as base and solvent, for example pyridine.
The synthesis of the thiadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXX) and their thiadiazolium salts (XXXI) can be carried out, for example, by the following process:




The synthesis of N-substituted amidoximes of the formula (XXXIV) has been described in detail in the literature. They can be, for example, according to J. Org. Chem. 1980, 45 (21), 4198 from the corresponding imidoyl chlorides of the formula (XXXIII) by reaction with the desired amines. Optionally, this takes place in an inert solvent at temperatures from 0° C. to 100° C. with reaction times from 1 h to 36 h. For the preparation of the imidoyl chlorides, it is possible to apply processes known from the literature, for example the reaction of the appropriate nitro compounds of the formula (XXXII) with alkoxylates, optionally in the corresponding alcohol as solvent, followed by addition of a chlorinating agent, for example titanium tetrachloride.
The literature discloses a number of methods for synthesizing oxadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXXV), for example the reaction of 1,2,4-oxadiazolin-5-ones with phosphorus pentasulfide, described by D. Sümengen in J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans 1 1983, 4, 687-691. The 1,2,4-oxadiazolin-5-ones required are commercially available or can be obtained from the N-substituted amidoximes (XXXIV) by reaction with a suitable halocarbonyl derivative, as described by H. Argibas in Phosp., Sulf., Silicon and rd. elem. 1998, 134/135, 381-319. Alternatively, the oxadiazolinethiones can be obtained directly from N-substituted amidoximes of the formula (XXXIV), for example by reaction with thiophosgene, as also published by D. Sümengen.
For the synthesis of the thiadiazolinones of the formula (XXXVI) from oxadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXXV), it is possible to employ the method of D. Sümengen in J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans 1 1983, 4, 687-691: this is a rearrangement of 3,4-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoline-5-thiones under copper catalysis in a high-boiling inert solvent at elevated temperature.
Thiadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXX) can be prepared, for example, from thiadiazolinones of the formula (XXXVI) by treatment with suitable sulfurizing agents such as, for example, phosphorus pentasulfide or Lawesson's reagent, optionally in an inert solvent at temperatures of up to 140° C.
The thiadiazolium salts of the formula (XXXI) can be prepared by methods known from the literature by alkylation of the corresponding thiadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXX). Suitable alkylating agents are, for example, alkyl halides (alkyl chlorides, alkyl bromides and alkyl iodides), alkyl triflates, alkyl mesylates and dialkyl sulfates.
The compounds of the formula (XXVIII) in process H can be prepared in particular under the conditions mentioned in the Preparation Examples.

where X1, X2, X3, X4 and R2 have the meanings given above and n may represent 0 or 1.
Anilines of the formula (X) and (XXVIII) can be converted into the ureas (A=O) and thioureas (S) of the formulae (XXXVIII) and (XXXVII), respectively, by methods known from the literature, for example according to JP2011/042611, by treating them with isocyanates (for A=O) and isothiocyanates (for A=S), optionally in the presence of a base and optionally in the presence of an organic solvent, or by converting them by generally known methods into their isocyanates (A=O) and isothiocyanates (A=S) and reacting these with amines to give the thioureas.
From the ureas (A=O) and thioureas (A=S) of the general formulae (XXXVIII) and (XXXVII), respectively, it is possible to synthesize the 2-arylimino-1,3-oxazolidin-4-ones (A=O) and -thiazolidin-4-ones (A=S) of the general formulae (Ia-g) and (Ib-g), respectively, for example by cycloacylation with an adequate halocarbonyl derivative in an inert solvent, in most cases at temperatures of more than 100° C. Suitable halocarbonyl derivatives are, for example for n=0, chloroacetic acid and its acid chloride, bromoacetic acid and its acid chloride or bromide; for n=1 the literature mentions 3-substituted 2-propenoyl chlorides, as described by C. F. Howell in J. Org. Chem. 1962, 27, 1686 and 1691 for analogous conversions into oxazolidinones and V. N. Britsun in Russ. J. Org. Chem. 2006, 41 (11), 1719-1729 for thiazolidinones.

The 3-substituted 2-aryliminothiazoles (Ia-h) and (Ib-h) can be synthesized from the thioureas (XXXVIII) and (XXXVII), respectively, for example by reaction with an adequate halocarbonyl derivative in an inert solvent. This may take place, for example, by cycloacylation with α-haloketo compounds or derivatives thereof, for example with 3-bromo-2-butanone for R7═R8=methyl, as described by A. Yahyazadeh in J. Pharm. Res. 1998, 9, 536-537(S), 2126-2139(M), or with 2-chloro-1,1-diethoxyethane for R7═R8═H as described in the U.S. Pat. No. 4,079,144.
The sulfoxides (Ib) can be obtained by oxidation of the thioether (Ia) by methods known from the literature. Known methods of enantioselective enrichment of the sulfoxides may be employed for this purpose.
These 2-arylimino-1,3-thiazoles (I) can also be synthesized directly from the anilines of the formula (X) or (XXVIII), for example by reaction with 3-alkyl-1,3-thiazolinethiones of the formula (A) or their thiazolium salts, optionally in the presence of a base and optionally in an inert solvent.




3-Substituted 1,3-thiazolinthiones of the formula (A) can be obtained from commercial sources or be prepared by methods known from the literature as described, for example, by K. Janikowska in Phosp. Sulf. Sil. and rel.elem. 2011, 186(1), 12-20. As in J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 1987, 109 (2), 492-507, amines can be reacted with carbon disulfide to give dithiocarbamates of the formula (D) which then, using an adequate halocarbonyl synthone, afford alkylated compounds of the formula (C). Suitable halocarbonyl compounds are, for example, chloroethanal or 2-chloro-1,1-diethoxyethane for R7═R8═H, chloropropanone for R7═H and R8=methyl, 3-bromo-2-butanone for R7═R8=methyl, 2-bromo-3-pentanone for R7=methyl and R8=ethyl, etc. The compounds of the formula (C) can either cyclize spontaneously to the desired thiazolinethiones (A) or only after dehydration, in most cases under acidic conditions and with heating.
The thiazolinium salts of the formula (B) can be prepared by alkylation of the corresponding thiadiazolinethiones of the formula (B). Suitable alkylating agents are, for example, alkyl halides (alkyl chlorides, alkyl bromides and alkyl iodides), alkyl triflates, alkyl mesylates and dialkyl sulfates.
The compounds of the formulae (XXVIII), (XXXVII) and (XXXVIII) in process J can be prepared in particular under the conditions mentioned in the Preparation Examples.
Process K
The 3-substituted 2-aryliminooxadiazoles of the general formula (I) can be prepared, for example, by process K




where X1, X2, X3, X4 and R2 have the meanings given above.
R7 is the substituent at the ring formed by R1 and R3 together with the atoms to which they are attached.
Anilines of the general formula (X) or the general formula (XXVIII) can be reacted, for example, with oxadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXXV) or with the corresponding oxadiazolium salts of the formula (XXXIX) to give the 2-aryliminooxadiazoles of the formula (Ia-i) and (Ib-i), respectively. This succeeds optionally in the presence of a base, optionally in an inert solvent or in an agent that can assume both roles, for example pyridine.
The synthesis of the oxadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXXV) and their oxadiazolium salts (XXXIX) can be carried out, for example, by the following process:




The oxadiazolium salts of the formula (XXXIX) can be prepared by methods known from the literature by alkylation of the corresponding oxadiazolinethiones of the formula (XXXV). Suitable alkylating agents are, for example, alkyl halides (alkyl chlorides, alkyl bromides and alkyl iodides), alkyl triflates, alkyl mesylates and dialkyl sulfates.

Customary formulations are, for example, water-soluble liquids (SL), emulsion concentrates (EC), emulsions in water (EW), suspension concentrates (SC, SE, FS, OD), water-dispersible granules (WG), granules (GR) and capsule concentrates (CS); these and further possible formulation types are described, for example, by Crop Life International and in Pesticide Specifications, Manual on development and use of FAO and WHO specifications for pesticides, FAO Plant Production and Protection Papers-173, prepared by the FAO/WHO Joint Meeting on Pesticide Specifications, 2004, ISBN: 9251048576. The formulations optionally comprise, in addition to one or more active compounds according to the invention, further agrochemically active compounds.
These are preferably formulations or use forms which comprise auxiliaries, for example extenders, solvents, spontaneity promoters, carriers, emulsifiers, dispersants, antifreezes, biocides, thickeners and/or further auxiliaries, for example adjuvants. An adjuvant in this context is a component which enhances the biological effect of the formulation, without the component itself having any biological effect. Examples of adjuvants are agents which promote retention, spreading, attachment to the leaf surface or penetration.
These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active ingredients with auxiliaries, for example extenders, solvents and/or solid carriers and/or further auxiliaries, for example surfactants. The formulations are produced either in suitable production plants or else before or during application.
The auxiliaries used may be substances suitable for imparting special properties, such as certain physical, technical and/or biological properties, to the formulation of the active ingredient, or to the use forms prepared from these formulations (for example ready-to-use crop protection compositions such as spray liquors or seed dressing products).
Suitable extenders are, for example, water, polar and nonpolar organic chemical liquids, for example from the classes of the aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons (such as paraffins, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, chlorobenzenes), the alcohols and polyols (which, if appropriate, may also be substituted, etherified and/or esterified), the ketones (such as acetone, cyclohexanone), esters (including fats and oils) and (poly)ethers, the unsubstituted and substituted amines, amides, lactams (such as N-alkylpyrrolidones) and lactones, the sulfones and sulfoxides (such as dimethyl sulfoxide).
If the extender used is water, it is also possible to employ, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents. Useful liquid solvents are essentially: aromatics such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example mineral oil fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols such as butanol or glycol and their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide, and also water.
In principle, it is possible to use all suitable solvents. Examples of suitable solvents are aromatic hydrocarbons, such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatic or chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzene, chloroethylene or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane, paraffins, petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol or glycol and their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as dimethyl sulfoxide, and also water.
In principle, it is possible to use all suitable carriers. Useful carriers include in particular: for example ammonium salts and ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic materials such as finely divided silica, alumina and natural or synthetic silicates, resins, waxes and/or solid fertilizers. Mixtures of such carriers may also be used. Useful carriers for granules include: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite, dolomite, and synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and also granules of organic material such as sawdust, paper, coconut shells, corn cobs and tobacco stalks.
Liquefied gaseous extenders or solvents can also be used. Particularly suitable extenders or carriers are those which are gaseous at ambient temperature and under atmospheric pressure, for example aerosol propellant gases, such as halohydrocarbons, and also butane, propane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide.
Examples of emulsifiers and/or foam formers, dispersants or wetting agents with ionic or nonionic properties, or mixtures of these surfactants, include salts of polyacrylic acid, salts of lignosulfonic acid, salts of phenolsulfonic acid or naphthalenesulfonic acid, polycondensates of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols or with fatty acids or with fatty amines, with substituted phenols (preferably alkylphenols or arylphenols), salts of sulfosuccinic esters, taurine derivatives (preferably alkyl taurates), phosphoric esters of polyethoxylated alcohols or phenols, fatty acid esters of polyols, and derivatives of the compounds containing sulfates, sulfonates and phosphates, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkyl sulfonates, alkylsulfates, arylsulfonates, protein hydrolyzates, lignosulfite waste liquors and methylcellulose. The presence of a surfactant is advantageous when one of the active ingredients and/or one of the inert carriers is insoluble in water and when application is effected in water.
Further auxiliaries which may be present in the formulations and the use forms derived therefrom include dyes such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussian Blue, and organic dyes such as alizarin dyes, azo dyes and metal phthalocyanine dyes, and nutrients and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.
Additional components may be stabilizers, such as cold stabilizers, preservatives, antioxidants, light stabilizers, or other agents which improve chemical and/or physical stability. Foam formers or antifoams may also be present.
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 may also be present as additional auxiliaries in the formulations and the use forms derived therefrom. Further auxiliaries may be mineral and vegetable oils.
Optionally, further auxiliaries may be present in the formulations and the use forms derived therefrom. Examples of such additives include fragrances, protective colloids, binders, adhesives, thickeners, thixotropic agents, penetrants, retention promoters, stabilizers, sequestrants, complexing agents, humectants, spreaders. In general, the active compounds can be combined with any solid or liquid additive customarily used for formulation purposes.
Useful retention promoters include all those substances which reduce the dynamic surface tension, for example dioctyl sulfosuccinate, or increase the viscoelasticity, for example hydroxypropylguar polymers.
Useful penetrants in the present context are all those substances which are typically used to improve the penetration of active agrochemical ingredients into plants. Penetrants are defined in this context by their ability to penetrate from the (generally aqueous) application liquor and/or from the spray coating into the cuticle of the plant and thereby increase the mobility of active ingredients in the cuticle. The method described in the literature (Baur et al., 1997, Pesticide Science 51, 131-152) can be used to determine this property. Examples include alcohol alkoxylates such as coconut fatty ethoxylate (10) or isotridecyl ethoxylate (12), fatty acid esters, for example rapeseed oil methyl ester or soybean oil methyl ester, fatty amine alkoxylates, for example tallowamine ethoxylate (15), or ammonium and/or phosphonium salts, for example ammonium sulfate or diammonium hydrogenphosphate.
The formulations contain preferably between 0.00000001% and 98% by weight of active ingredient or more preferably between 0.01% and 95% by weight of active ingredient, more preferably between 0.5% and 90% by weight of active ingredient, based on the weight of the formulation.
The active ingredient content of the use forms (crop protection compositions) prepared from the formulations can vary within wide limits. The active ingredient concentration of the use forms may typically be between 0.00000001% and 95% by weight of active ingredient, preferably between 0.00001% and 1% by weight, based on the weight of the use form. Application is accomplished in a customary manner appropriate for the use forms.
The active compounds according to the invention may be used as such or in formulations thereof, including in a mixture with one or more suitable fungicides, bactericides, acaricides, nematicides, insecticides, microbicides, fertilizers, attractants, phytotonics, sterilants, synergists, safeners, semiochemicals and/or plant growth regulators, in order thus, for example, to broaden the spectrum of action, to prolong the duration of action, to increase the rate of action, to prevent repulsion or prevent evolution of resistance. In addition, plant growth can be improved by those combinations which enhance tolerance to abiotic factors, for example high or low temperatures, to drought or to elevated water content or soil salinity. It is also possible to improve flowering and fruiting performance, optimize germination capacity and root development, facilitate harvesting and improve yields, influence maturation, improve the quality and/or the nutritional value of the harvested products, prolong storage life and/or improve the processability of the harvested products. In general, by combining the active compounds according to the invention and mixing partners, synergistic effects are obtained, i.e. the efficacy of the mixture in question is greater than the efficacy of the individual components. It is generally possible to use the combinations in premixes, tank mixes or ready mixes, and also in seed applications.
Particularly favorable mixing partners are, for example, the following:
Insecticides/Acaricides/Nematicides

All mixing partners mentioned in classes (1) to (16) can, if they are capable on the basis of their functional groups, optionally form salts with suitable bases or acids.
A mixture with other known active compounds, such as herbicides, fertilizers, growth regulators, safeners, semiochemicals, or else with agents for improving the plant properties, is also possible.
When used as insecticides, the active compounds according to the invention may also be present in their commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as a mixture with synergists. Synergists are compounds which enhance the action of the active compounds, without any need for the synergist added to be active itself.
When used as insecticides, the active compounds according to the invention may also be present in their commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as a mixture with inhibitors which reduce degradation of the active compound after use in the environment of the plant, on the surface of parts of plants or in plant tissues.
According to the invention, it is possible to treat all plants and plant parts. Plants are understood here to mean all plants and plant populations, such as wanted and unwanted wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants may be plants obtainable by conventional breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and gene-technological methods, or combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and including the plant cultivars protectable or not protectable by plant breeders' rights. Parts of plants shall be understood to mean all above-ground and below-ground parts and organs of plants, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples including leaves, needles, stems, trunks, flowers, fruit bodies, fruits and seeds, and also roots, tubers and rhizomes. The plant parts also include harvested material and vegetative and generative propagation material, for example cuttings, tubers, rhizomes, slips and seeds.
Treatment according to the invention of the plants and plant parts with the active compounds is carried out directly or by allowing the compounds to act on their surroundings, habitat or storage space by the customary treatment methods, for example by immersion, spraying, evaporation, fogging, scattering, painting on, injection and, in the case of propagation material, in particular in the case of seeds, also by applying one or more coats.
As already mentioned above, it is possible to treat all plants and parts thereof in accordance with the invention. In a preferred embodiment, wild plant species and plant cultivars, or those obtained by conventional biological breeding methods, such as crossing or protoplast fusion, and also parts thereof, are treated. In a further preferred embodiment, transgenic plants and plant cultivars obtained by genetic engineering methods, if appropriate in combination with conventional methods (genetically modified organisms), and parts thereof are treated. The terms “parts” or “parts of plants” or “plant parts” have been explained above.
More preferably, plants of the plant cultivars which are commercially available or are in use are treated in accordance with the invention. Plant cultivars are understood to mean plants having new properties (“traits”) and which have been obtained by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. They may be cultivars, biotypes and genotypes.
Depending on the plant species or plant cultivars, and the location and growth conditions (soils, climate, vegetation period, diet) thereof, the treatment according to the invention may also result in superadditive (“synergistic”) effects. For example, possibilities include reduced application rates and/or broadening of the activity spectrum and/or an increase in the activity of the compounds and compositions usable in accordance with the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to levels of water or soil salinity, enhanced flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated ripening, higher yields, higher quality and/or higher nutritional value of the harvested products, increased storage life and/or processability of the harvested products, which exceed the effects normally to be expected.
The preferred transgenic plants or plant cultivars (those obtained by genetic engineering) which are to be treated in accordance with the invention include all plants which, through the genetic modification, received genetic material which imparts particular advantageous useful traits to these plants. Examples of such properties are better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to levels of water or soil salinity, enhanced flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated ripening, higher yields, higher quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, longer storage life and/or processability of the harvested products. Further and particularly emphasized examples of such properties are an improved defense of the plants against animal and microbial pests, such as against insects, mites, phytopathogenic fungi, bacteria and/or viruses, and also increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidally active ingredients. Examples of transgenic plants which may be mentioned are the important crop plants, such as cereals (wheat, rice), corn, soybeans, potatoes, sugar beet, tomatoes, peas and other types of vegetable, cotton, tobacco, oilseed rape and also fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and grapes), with particular emphasis being given to corn, soybeans, potatoes, cotton, tobacco and oilseed rape. Traits that are emphasized in particular are the increased defense of the plants against insects, arachnids, nematodes and slugs and snails by toxins formed in the plants, in particular those formed in the plants by the genetic material from Bacillus thuringiensis (for example by the genes CryIA(a), CryIA(b), CryIA(c), CryIIA, CryIIIA, CryIIIB2, Cry9c, Cry2Ab, Cry3Bb and CryIF and also combinations thereof) (hereinbelow referred to as “Bt plants”). Traits that are also particularly emphasized are the improved defense of plants against fungi, bacteria and viruses by systemic acquired resistance (SAR), systemin, phytoalexins, elicitors and also resistance genes and correspondingly expressed proteins and toxins. Traits that are additionally particularly emphasized are the increased tolerance of the plants to certain active herbicidal ingredients, for example imidazolinones, sulfonylureas, glyphosate or phosphinothricin (for example the “PAT” gene). The genes which impart the desired traits in question can also be present in combinations with one another in the transgenic plants. Examples of “Bt plants” include corn varieties, cotton varieties, soybean varieties and potato varieties which are sold under the trade names YIELD GARD® (for example corn, cotton, soybean), KnockOut® (for example corn), StarLink® (for example corn), Bollgard® (cotton), Nucotn® (cotton) and NewLeaf® (potato). Examples of herbicide-tolerant plants include corn varieties, cotton varieties and soybean varieties which are sold under the trade names Roundup Ready® (tolerance to glyphosate, for example corn, cotton, soybean), Liberty Link® (tolerance to phosphinothricin, for example oilseed rape), IMI® (tolerance to imidazolinones) and STS® (tolerance to sulfonylureas, for example corn). Herbicide-resistant plants (plants bred in a conventional manner for herbicide tolerance) which may be mentioned include the varieties sold under the name Clearfield® (for example corn). Of course, these statements also apply to plant cultivars which have these genetic traits or genetic traits which are still to be developed and will be developed and/or marketed in the future.
The plants listed can be treated in accordance with the invention in a particularly advantageous manner with the compounds of the general formula I and/or the active compound mixtures according to the invention. The preferred ranges stated above for the active compounds or mixtures also apply to the treatment of these plants. Particular emphasis is given to the treatment of plants with the compounds or mixtures specifically mentioned in the present text.

At 0° C., 27.5 g of 2-fluoro-4-methylaniline are initially charged in 300 ml of dichloromethane, 26.7 g of triethylamine are added and 50.8 g of trifluoroacetic anhydride are then added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at 0° C. for another 2 h and then concentrated by rotary evaporation. The residue is taken up in water and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulfate and filtered and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure. This gives 49.0 g (100% of theory) of the trifluoroacetamide (VI-1).

A little at a time, 1.61 g (6.72 mmol) of 2-fluoro-4-methyl-5-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)sulfanyl]aniline are added to a solution of 1 g (7.37 mmol) of 3-chloropropyl isocyanate in 30 ml of tert-butyl methyl ether and a catalytic amount of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and subsequently stirred at room temperature for another 18 h. Under reduced pressure, the mixture is freed from the solvent. The residue that remains is a light-beige oil which slowly crystallizes. This leaves 2.3 g of product (91.3% of theory, purity 95% according to LC/MS).
13C-NMR (D6-DMSO) δ ppm: 166.0 (broad), 156.1, 142.1, 131.7, 129.4, 126.1, 120.6, 118.6, 41.3, 34.9, 26.6, 20.6
log P(HCOOH): 1.34
Step 2: 2-Fluoro-4-methyl-N-[1,3-thiazinan-2-ylidene]-5-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)sulfanyl]aniline (Ia-279)

The mixture is extracted repeatedly with dichloromethane. The combined organic phases are separated off, dried over sodium sulfate and freed from the solvent under reduced pressure. This leaves a residue of 1.56 g of product (68.3% of theory, purity 100% according to 1H-NMR) as shiny amber crystals.

A little at a time, 1.9 g (7.94 mmol) of 2-fluoro-4-methyl-5-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)sulfanyl]aniline are added to a solution of 1 g (8.22 mmol) of 2-chloroethyl isothiocyanate in 50 ml of tert-butyl methyl ether and a catalytic amount of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and subsequently stirred at room temperature for another 18 h. Under reduced pressure, almost all of the solvent is removed from the mixture, and the resulting white solid is filtered off with suction. This leaves 2.88 g of product (97.1% of theory, purity 100% according to 1H-NMR).

Under reduced pressure, the mixture is freed from the solvent and the slurry of solids that remains is neutralized with dilute hydrochloric acid. The mixture is extracted repeatedly with dichloromethane. The combined organic phases are separated off, dried over magnesium sulfate and freed from the solvent under reduced pressure. This gives 2.38 g of a brown oil as a crude product. Purification by column chromatography using a Biotage Isolera One using a 50 g Snap cartridge and ethyl acetate/cyclohexane 1:1 v/v as mobile phase gives 590 mg of product (23.9% of theory, purity according to LC/MS 92.9%).

The combined organic phases are washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate and filtered. After removal of the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue is purified by column chromatography using MPLC on RP(C-18) with water/acetonitrile.

The log P values were determined in accordance with EEC Directive 79/831 Annex V.A8 by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) using reversed-phase columns (C18) by the following methods:
[a] The LC-MS determination in the acidic range is carried out at pH 2.7 using 0.1% aqueous formic acid and acetonitrile (contains 0.1% formic acid) as mobile phases; linear gradient from 10% acetonitrile to 95% acetonitrile. Also referred to as log P(HCOOH).
[b] The LC-MS determination in the neutral range is carried out at pH 7.8 using 0.001 molar aqueous ammonium bicarbonate solution and acetonitrile as mobile phases; linear gradient from 10% acetonitrile to 95% acetonitrile. Also referred to as log P(neutral).
[c] The determination in the acidic range is carried out at pH 2.3 using 0.1% aqueous phosphoric acid and acetonitrile as mobile phases; linear gradient from 10% acetonitrile to 95% acetonitrile.
Calibration is carried out using unbranched alkan-2-ones (having from 3 to 16 carbon atoms) with known log P values (the log P values are determined by the retention times using linear interpolation between two successive alkanones).
The lambda-max values were determined in the maxima of the chromatographic signals using the UV spectra from 200 nm to 400 nm.
NMR Data of Selected Examples
The NMR data for selected examples are listed either in conventional form (6 values, number of hydrogen atoms, multiplet splitting) or as NMR peak lists.
NMR peak list method:
When the 1H NMR data for selected examples are noted in the form of 1H NMR peak lists, first the δ value in ppm and then the signal intensity is listed for each signal peak, separated by a space. The δ value-signal intensity number pairs for different signal peaks are listed with separation from one another by semicolons.
The peak list for one example therefore takes the form of:
δ1 intensity1; δ2 intensity2; . . . ; δi intensityi; . . . ; δn intensityn 
The solvent in which the NMR spectrum was recorded is listed in square brackets after the number of the example and before the NMR peak list or the conventional NMR interpretation list.

The intensity of sharp signals correlates with the height of the signals in a printed example of an NMR spectrum in cm and shows the true ratios of the signal intensities. In the case of broad signals, several peaks or the middle of the signal and their relative intensities may be shown in comparison to the most intense signal in the spectrum.
The lists of the 1H NMR peaks are similar to the conventional 1H NMR printouts and thus usually contain all peaks listed in a conventional NMR interpretation.
In addition, like conventional 1H NMR printouts, they may show solvent signals, signals of stereoisomers of the target compounds, which likewise form part of the subject-matter of the invention, and/or peaks of impurities.
In the reporting of compound signals in the delta range of solvents and/or water, our lists of 1H NMR peaks show the usual solvent peaks, for example peaks of DMSO in DMSO-d6 and the peak of water, which usually have a high intensity on average.
The peaks of stereoisomers of the target compounds and/or peaks of impurities usually have a lower intensity on average than the peaks of the target compounds (for example with a purity of >90%).
Such stereoisomers and/or impurities may be typical of the particular preparation process. Their peaks can thus help in this case to identify reproduction of our preparation process with reference to “by-product fingerprints”.
An expert calculating the peaks of the target compounds by known methods (MestreC, ACD simulation, but also with empirically evaluated expected values) can, if required, isolate the peaks of the target compounds, optionally using additional intensity filters. This isolation would be similar to the relevant peak picking in conventional 1H NMR interpretation.
If, as a result of the δ-value being rounded to two digits after the comma, there are signals having the same δ-value, their intensities after addition give the same image that would also be observed in the printout of a classic NMR in the region of this δ-value.
