## Background
The present invention relates to novel phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives, to a plurality of processes for their preparation and to their use as pesticides and/or herbicides.
Moreover, the invention relates to novel selective herbicidal active compound combinations comprising, firstly, phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivates and, secondly, at least one crop plant compatibility-improving compound, which combinations can be used with particularly good results for the selective control of weeds and various crops of useful plants.
The present invention furthermore relates to increasing the activity of crop protection compositions comprising in particular phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivates by adding ammonium salts or phosphonium salts and, if appropriate, penetrants, to the corresponding compositions, to processes for their preparation and to their use in crop protection as insecticides and/or for preventing unwanted plant growth.
It is known that certain substituted 2-arylcyclopentanediones have herbicidal, insecticidal and acaricidal properties (cf., for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,283,348; 4,338,122; 4,436,666; 4,526,723; 4,551,547; 4,632,698; WO 96/01 798; WO 96/03 366, WO 97/14 667 and also WO 98/39281, WO 99/43649, WO99/48869, WO 99/55673, WO 01/17972, WO 01/74770, WO 03/062244, WO 04/080962, WO04/111042, WO05/092897, WO06/029799, WO07/080,066, WO07/096,058, WO 09/019,005 and WO 09/019,015). Also known are compounds which are substituted in a similar way: 3-hydroxy-5,5-dimethyl-2-phenylcyclopent-2-en-1-one from the publication Micklefield et. al., Tetrahedron, (1992), 7519-26 and the natural product Involution (−)-cis-5-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-enone from the publication Edwards et al., J. Chem. Soc. S, (1967), 405-9. An insecticidal or acaricidal action is not described. Moreover, 2-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-indanedione is known from the publication J. Economic Entomology, 66 (1973), 584 and the laid-open publication DE-A 2 361 084, with herbicidal and acaricidal actions being stated.
However, in particular at low application rates and concentrations, the activity and activity spectrum of these compounds is not always fully satisfactory. Furthermore, the compatibility of these compounds with plants is not always sufficient.
This invention now provides novel compounds of the formula (I)




in which

    X represents alkyl, cycloalkyl or alkoxy,
    Y represents hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy,
    Z represents hydrogen, alkyl or cycloalkyl,
    where
    A and B together with the carbon atom to which they are attached represent a saturated or unsaturated unsubstituted or substituted cycle which optionally contains at least one heteroatom,
    or
    A and B together with the carbon atom to which they are attached represent a carbonyl group, a C1-C4-alkylene group or a ═N—OR9 group,
    G represents hydrogen (a) or represents one of the groups






    
    
        in which
        E represents a metal ion equivalent or an ammonium ion,
        L represents oxygen or sulphur,
        M represents oxygen or sulphur,
    
    
    R1 represents in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, polyalkoxyalkyl or optionally halogen-, alkyl- or alkoxy-substituted cycloalkyl which may be interrupted by at least one heteroatom, in each case optionally substituted phenyl, phenylalkyl, hetaryl, phenoxyalkyl or hetaryloxyalkyl,
    R2 represents in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl, polyalkoxyalkyl or represents in each case optionally substituted cycloalkyl, phenyl or benzyl,
    R3, R4 and R5 independently of one another represent in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkylamino, dialkylamino, alkylthio, alkenylthio, cycloalkylthio or represent in each case optionally substituted phenyl, benzyl, phenoxy or phenylthio,
    R6 and R7 independently of one another represent hydrogen, in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, represent optionally substituted phenyl, represent optionally substituted benzyl, or together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached represent a cycle which is optionally interrupted by oxygen or sulphur,
    R9 represents hydrogen, represents in each case optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, CH2-cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, arylalkyl or hetarylalkyl.


Depending inter alia on the nature of the substituents, the compounds of the formula (I) may be present as geometric and/or optical isomers or isomer mixtures of varying composition which, if appropriate, may be separated in a customary manner. The present invention provides both the pure isomers and the isomer mixtures, their preparation and use and compositions comprising them. However, for the sake of simplicity, hereinbelow only compounds of the formula (I) are referred to, although what is meant is both the pure compounds and, if appropriate, mixtures having various proportions of isomeric compounds.
Depending on the position of the substituent G, the compounds of the formula (I) can be present in the two isomeric forms of the formulae (I-A) and (I-B)




which is meant to be indicated by the broken line in formula (I).

The compounds of the formulae (I-A) and (I-B) can be present both as mixtures and in the form of their pure isomers. If appropriate, mixtures of the compounds of the formulae (I-A) and (I-B) can be separated by physical methods, for example by way of chromatographic methods.
For reasons of clarity, hereinbelow only one of the possible isomers is shown in each case. This does not exclude that, if appropriate, the compounds may be present in the form of the isomer mixtures or in the respective other isomeric form.
Including the different meanings (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of group G, the following principle structures (I-a) to (I-g) result:







in which

A, B, E, L, M, X, Y, Z, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 have the meanings given above.

A further form of stereoisomerism results from the cis-attachment of the two carbacyclic five-membered rings, namely in the case where specifically the two substituents A and B in formula (Ia) are not identical.




Hereinbelow, the isomers encountered in this case are referred to as “syn” and “anti”, respectively, depending on whether the substituent A or B to be prioritized according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules is in the anti- or syn-position to the cyclopentanedione ring. Two examples of such forms of isomerism in the compounds of the formula (I-a) are mentioned below:

Surprisingly, it has now also been found that certain substituted cyclic ketoenoles, when used together with the crop plant compatibility-improving compounds (safener/antidotes) described below, efficiently prevent damage to the crop plants and can be used in a particularly advantageous manner as broad-spectrum combination preparations for the selective control of unwanted plants in crops of useful plants, such as, for example, in cereals, but also in maize, potatoes, soya beans and rice.

It has now surprisingly been found that the above-defined active compound combinations of compounds of the general formula (I) and safeners (antidotes) from group (b′) set out above combine very good compatibility with useful plants with a particularly high herbicidal activity and can be used in various crops, in particular in cereals (especially wheat), but also in soya beans, potatoes, maize and rice, for the selective control of weeds.
In this context, it is considered surprising that, from a multiplicity of known safeners or antidotes capable of antagonizing the damaging effect of a herbicidal crop plant, it is specifically the compounds of group (b′) set out above which are suitable for compensating—almost completely—the damaging effect of compounds of the formula (I) on the crop plants, without at the same time having any substantial adverse effect on the herbicidal activity against the weeds.
Emphasis may be given here to the particularly advantageous effect of the preferred and most preferred combination partners from group (b′), particularly with regard to the sparing of cereal plants, such as, for example, wheat, barley and rye, but also maize and rice, as crop plants.
The formula (I) provides a general definition of the compounds according to the invention. Preferred substituents or ranges of the radicals given in the formulae mentioned above and below are illustrated below:

    X preferably represents C1-C4-alkyl, C3-C6-cycloalkyl or C1-C4-alkoxy,
    Y preferably represents hydrogen, C1-C4-alkyl or C1-C4-alkoxy,

In the literature it has already been described how the action of various active compounds can be boosted by addition of ammonium salts. The salts in question, however, are detersive salts (for example WO 95/017817) or salts which have relatively long alkyl substituents and/or aryl substituents and which have a permeabilizing action or which increase the active compound's solubility (for example EP-A 0 453 086, EP-A 0 664 081, FR-A 2 600 494, U.S. Pat. No. 4,844,734, U.S. Pat. No. 5,462,912, U.S. Pat. No. 5,538,937, US-A 03/0224939, US-A 05/0009880, US-A 05/0096386). Moreover, the prior art describes the action only for particular active compounds and/or particular applications of the corresponding compositions. In other cases, in turn, the salts in question are those of sulphonic acids, where the acids themselves have a paralytic action on insects (U.S. Pat. No. 2,842,476). A boost to action by ammonium sulphate, for example, is described by way of example for the herbicides glyphosate, phosphinothricin and for phenyl-substituted cyclic ketoenols (U.S. Pat. No. 6,645,914, EP-A2 0 036 106, WO 07/068,427). A corresponding boost of action in the case of insecticides has already been described in WO 07/068,428.
The use of ammonium sulphate as a formulating assistant has also been described for certain active compounds and applications (WO 92/16108), but its purpose therein is to stabilize the formulation, not to boost the action.
It has now been found, surprisingly, that the action of insecticides and/or acaricides and/or herbicides from the class of the phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I) can be boosted significantly through the addition of ammonium salts or phosphonium salts to the application solution or through the incorporation of these salts into a formulation comprising phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I). The present invention therefore provides for the use of ammonium salts or phosphonium salts for boosting the action of crop protection compositions which comprise as their active compound herbicidal and/or insecticidal and/or acaricidal phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I). The invention likewise provides compositions which comprise herbicidal and/or acaricidal and/or insecticidal phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I) and action-boosting ammonium salts or phosphonium salts, including not only formulated active compounds but also ready-to-use compositions (spray liquors). The invention further provides, finally, for the use of these compositions for controlling insect pests and/or spider mites and/or unwanted vegetation.
The active compounds can be used in the compositions according to the invention in a broad concentration range. The concentration of the active compounds in the formulation is typically 0.1%-50% by weight.
Formula (III′) provides a definition of the ammonium salts and phosphonium salts which, according to the invention, boost the activity of crop protection compositions comprising fatty acid biosynthesis inhibitors

D preferably represents nitrogen,

R26, R27, R28 and R29 independently of one another represent hydrogen or in each case optionally substituted C1-C8-alkyl or mono- or polyunsaturated, optionally substituted C1-C8-alkylene, the substituents being selectable from halogen, nitro and cyano,

R26, R27, R28 and R29 independently of one another particularly preferably represent hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl or tert-butyl,

R30 particularly preferably represents lactate, sulphate, nitrate, thiosulphate, thiocyanate, oxalate or formate.

R30 very particularly preferably represents sulphate.

The ammonium salts and phosphonium salts of the formula (III′) can be used in a broad concentration range to boost the activity of crop protection compositions comprising phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I). In general the ammonium salts or phosphonium salts are used in the ready-to-use crop protection composition in a concentration of 0.5 to 80 mmol/l, preferably 0.75 to 37.5 mmol/l, more preferably 1.5 to 25 mmol/l. In the case of a formulated product the ammonium salt and/or phosphonium salt concentration in the formulation is chosen such that it is within these stated general, preferred or particularly preferred ranges after the formulation has been diluted to the desired active compound concentration. The concentration of the salt in the formulation is typically 1%-50% by weight.
In one preferred embodiment of the invention the activity is boosted by adding to the crop protection compositions not only an ammonium salt and/or phosphonium salt but also, additionally, a penetrant. It is considered entirely surprising that even in these cases an even greater boost to activity is observed. The present invention therefore likewise provides for the use of a combination of penetrant and ammonium salts and/or phosphonium salts to boost the activity of crop protection compositions which comprise insecticidal and/or acaricidal and/or herbicidal phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I) as active compound. The invention likewise provides compositions which comprise herbicidal and/or acaricidal and/or insecticidal phenyl-substituted bicyclooctane-1,3-dione derivatives of the formula (I), penetrants and ammonium salts and/or phosphonium salts, including specifically not only formulated active compounds but also ready-to-use compositions (spray liquors). The invention additionally provides, finally, for the use of these compositions for controlling harmful insects and/or spider mites and/or unwanted vegetation.
In the present context, suitable penetrants are all those substances which are usually employed to improve penetration of agrochemically active compounds into plants. In this context, penetrants are defined in that they penetrate from the aqueous spray liquor and/or the spray coating into the cuticles of the plant, thus increasing the mobility of active compounds in the cuticles. The method described in the literature (Baur et al., 1997, Pesticide Science 51, 131-152) can be used for determining this property.
Examples of suitable penetrants include alkanol alkoxylates. Penetrants of the invention are alkanol alkoxylates of the formula (IV′)

Preference is given to rapeseed oil, sunflower oil and their methyl or ethyl esters.

In the case of a formulated crop protection composition it is in general 1% to 95%, preferably 1% to 55%, more preferably 15%-40% by weight. In the ready-to-use compositions (spray liquors) the concentrations are generally between 0.1 and 10 g/l, preferably between 0.5 and 5 g/l.

If appropriate, the compounds according to the invention can, at certain concentrations or application rates, also be used as herbicides, safeners, growth regulators or agents to improve plant properties, or as microbicides, for example as fungicides, antimycotics, bactericides, viricides (including agents against viroids) or as agents against MLO (Mycoplasma-like organisms) and RLO (Rickettsia-like organisms). If appropriate, they can also be employed as intermediates or precursors for the synthesis of other active compounds.
The active compounds can be converted to the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, water- and oil-based suspensions, powders, dusts, pastes, soluble powders, soluble granules, granules for broadcasting, suspension-emulsion concentrates, natural materials impregnated with active compound, synthetic materials impregnated with active compound, fertilizers and microencapsulations in polymeric substances.
These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is liquid solvents and/or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surfactants, that is emulsifiers and/or dispersants and/or foam-formers. The formulations are prepared either in suitable plants or else before or during the application.
Suitable for use as auxiliaries are substances which are suitable for imparting to the composition itself and/or to preparations derived therefrom (for example spray liquors, seed dressings) particular properties such as certain technical properties and/or also particular biological properties. Typical suitable auxiliaries are: extenders, solvents and carriers.
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 sulphones and sulphoxides (such as dimethyl sulphoxide).
If the extender used is water, it is also possible to employ, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents. Essentially, suitable liquid solvents are: 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 petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols such as butanol or glycol and also their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as dimethyl sulphoxide, and also water.
According to the invention, a carrier is a natural or synthetic organic or inorganic substance which may be solid or liquid and with which the active compounds are mixed or bonded for better applicability, in particular for application to plants or parts of plants. The solid or liquid carrier is generally inert and should be suitable for use in agriculture.
Suitable solid carriers are:
for example, ammonium salts and ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals, such as finely divided 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, and also synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material such as paper, 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 and also protein hydrolysates; suitable dispersants are nonionic and/or ionic substances, for example from the classes of the alcohol-POE and/or -POP ethers, acid and/or POP-POE esters, alkylaryl and/or POP-POE ethers, fat- and/or POP-POE adducts, POE- and/or POP-polyol derivatives, POE- and/or POP-sorbitan or -sugar adducts, alkyl or aryl sulphates, alkyl- or arylsulphonates and alkyl or aryl phosphates or the corresponding PO-ether adducts. Furthermore, suitable oligo- or polymers, for example those derived from vinylic monomers, from acrylic acid, from EO and/or PO alone or in combination with, for example, (poly)alcohols or (poly)amines. It is also possible to employ lignin and its sulphonic acid derivatives, unmodified and modified celluloses, aromatic and/or aliphatic sulphonic acids and their adducts with formaldehyde.
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, as well as natural phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids, can be used in the formulations.
It is possible to use colorants 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.
Other possible additives are perfumes, mineral or vegetable, optionally modified oils, waxes and nutrients (including trace nutrients), such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.
Stabilizers, such as low-temperature stabilizers, preservatives, antioxidants, light stabilizers or other agents which improve chemical and/or physical stability may also be present.
The formulations generally comprise between 0.01 and 98% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.
The active compound according to the invention can be used in its commercially available formulations and in the use forms, prepared from these formulations, as a mixture with other active compounds, such as insecticides, attractants, sterilizing agents, bactericides, acaricides, nematicides, fungicides, growth-regulating substances, herbicides, safeners, fertilizers or semiochemicals.
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 can furthermore 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 increase the action of the active compounds, without it being necessary for the synergist added to be active itself.
When used as insecticides, the active compounds according to the invention can furthermore 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.
The active compound content of the use forms prepared from the commercially available formulations can vary within wide limits. The active compound concentration of the use forms can be from 0.00000001 to 95% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.00001 and 1% by weight.
The compounds are employed in a customary manner appropriate for the use forms.
All plants and plant parts can be treated in accordance with the invention. Plants are to be understood as meaning in the present context all plants and plant populations such as desired and undesired wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional plant breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and genetic engineering methods or by combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and including the plant cultivars protectable or not protectable by plant breeders' rights. Plant parts are to be understood as meaning all parts and organs of plants above and below the ground, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples which may be mentioned being leaves, needles, stalks, stems, flowers, fruit bodies, fruits, seeds, roots, tubers and rhizomes. The plant parts also include harvested material, and vegetative and generative propagation material, for example cuttings, tubers, rhizomes, offshoots 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 their parts according to 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 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”, “parts of plants” and “plant parts” have been explained above.
Particularly preferably, plants of the plant cultivars which are in each case commercially available or in use are treated according to the invention. Plant cultivars are to be understood as meaning plants having novel properties (“traits”) which have been obtained by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. These can be cultivars, bio- or genotypes.
Depending on the plant species or plant cultivars, their location and growth conditions (soils, climate, vegetation period, diet), the treatment according to the invention may also result in superadditive (“synergistic”) effects. Thus, for example, reduced application rates and/or a widening of the activity spectrum and/or an increase in the activity of the substances and compositions which can be used according to the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content, increased flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, higher quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, better storage stability and/or processability of the harvested products are possible, which exceed the effects which were actually to be expected.
The transgenic plants or plant cultivars (obtained by genetic engineering) which are preferably to be treated according to the invention include all plants which, by virtue of the genetic modification, received genetic material which imparted particularly advantageous, useful traits to these plants. Examples of such traits are better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content, increased flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, higher quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, better storage stability and/or processability of the harvested products. Further and particularly emphasized examples of such traits are a better defence 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 compounds. Examples of transgenic plants which may be mentioned are the important crop plants, such as cereals (wheat, rice), maize, soya beans, potatoes, sugar beet, tomatoes, peas and other vegetable varieties, cotton, tobacco, oilseed rape and also fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and grapes), and particular emphasis is given to maize, soya beans, potatoes, cotton, tobacco and oilseed rape. Traits that are emphasized are in particular increased defence of the plants against insects, arachnids, nematodes and slugs and snails by virtue of 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) (referred to hereinbelow as “Bt plants”). Traits that are also particularly emphasized are the increased defence of the plants against fungi, bacteria and viruses by systemic acquired resistance (SAR), systemin, phytoalexins, elicitors and resistance genes and correspondingly expressed proteins and toxins. Traits that are furthermore particularly emphasized are the increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidally active compounds, for example imidazolinones, sulphonylureas, glyphosate or phosphinotricin (for example the “PAT” gene). The genes which impart the desired traits in question can also be present in combination with one another in the transgenic plants. Examples of “Bt plants” which may be mentioned are maize varieties, cotton varieties, soya bean varieties and potato varieties which are sold under the trade names YIELD GARD® (for example maize, cotton, soya beans), KnockOut® (for example maize), StarLink® (for example maize), Bollgard® (cotton), Nucotn® (cotton) and NewLeaf® (potato). Examples of herbicide-tolerant plants which may be mentioned are maize varieties, cotton varieties and soya bean varieties which are sold under the trade names Roundup Ready® (tolerance to glyphosate, for example maize, cotton, soya bean), Liberty Link® (tolerance to phosphinotricin, for example oilseed rape), IMI® (tolerance to imidazolinones) and STS® (tolerance to sulphonylureas, for example maize). 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 maize). Of course, these statements also apply to plant cultivars having these genetic traits or genetic traits still to be developed, which plant cultivars will be developed and/or marketed in the future.
The plants listed can be treated according to the invention in a particularly advantageous manner with the compounds of the general formula (I) 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.
The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention (active compounds) have excellent herbicidal activity against a broad spectrum of economically important monocotylidonous and dicotylidonous annual harmful plants. The active compounds also act efficiently on perennial harmful plants which produce shoots from rhizomes, root stocks or other perennial organs and which are difficult to control.
The amount of active compound used may vary within a relatively wide range. It depends essentially on the nature of the desired effect. In general, the application rates are between 1 g and 10 kg of active compound per hectare of soil area, preferably between 5 g and 5 kg per ha.
The advantageous effect of the compatibility with crop plants of the active compound combinations according to the invention is particularly pronounced at certain concentration ratios. However, the weight ratios of the active compounds in the active compound combinations can be varied within relatively wide ranges. In general, from 0.001 to 1000 parts by weight, preferably from 0.01 to 100 parts by weight, particularly preferably from 0.05 to 20 parts by weight, of one of the crop plant compatibility-improving compounds (antidotes/safeners) mentioned above under (b′) are present per part by weight of active compound of the formula (I).
The active compound combinations according to the invention are generally applied in the form of finished formulations. However, the active compounds present in the active compound combinations can, as individual formulations, also be mixed during use, i.e. be applied in the form of tank mixtures.
For certain applications, in particular in the post-emergence method, it may furthermore be advantageous to include in the formulations, as further additives, mineral or vegetable oils which are tolerated by plants (for example the commercial preparation “Rako Binol”), or ammonium salts, such as, for example, ammonium sulphate or ammonium thiocyanate.
The novel active compound combinations can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom by further dilution, such as ready-to-use solutions, suspensions, emulsions, powders, pastes and granules. The application is in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying, atomizing, dusting or broadcasting.
The application rates of the active compound combinations according to the invention can be varied within a certain range; they depend, inter alia, on the weather and on soil factors. In general, the application rates are from 0.001 to 5 kg per ha, preferably from 0.005 to 2 kg per ha, particularly preferably from 0.01 to 0.5 kg per ha.
Depending on their properties, the safeners to be used according to the invention can be used for pretreating the seed of the crop plant (seed dressing) or can be introduced into the seed ferrules prior to the seed or be used separately prior to the herbicide or together with the herbicide, before or after emergence of the plants.
Examples of plants which may be mentioned are important crop plants, such as cereals (wheat, barley, rice), maize, soya beans, potatoes, cotton, oilseed rape, beet, sugar cane and also fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and grapevines), greater emphasis being given to cereals, maize, soya beans, potatoes, cotton and oilseed rape.
All plants and plant parts can be treated with the active compounds according to the invention. Here, plants are to be understood as meaning all plants and plant populations such as wanted and unwanted wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional plant breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and recombinant methods or by combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and inclusive of the plant cultivars protectable or not protectable by plant breeders rights. Plant parts are to be understood as meaning all parts and organs of plants above and below the ground, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples which may be mentioned being leaves, needles, stalks, stems, flowers, fruit bodies, fruits and seed and also roots, tubers and rhizomes. The plant parts also include harvested material, and also vegetative and generative propagation material, for example cuttings, tubers, rhizomes, offshoots 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, broadcasting, painting on or injection and, in the case of propagation material, in particular in the case of seed, also by applying one or more coats.
The present invention therefore also relates to a method of controlling unwanted plants or for regulating the growth of plants, preferably in crops of plants, where one or more compound(s) according to the invention is/are applied to the plants (for example harmful plants such as monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted crop plants), to the seed (for example grains, seeds or vegetative propagules such as tubers or shoot parts with buds) or to the area on which the plants grow (for example the area under cultivation). In this context, the compounds according to the invention can be applied for example pre-planting (if appropriate also by incorporation into the soil), pre-emergence or post-emergence. Examples of individual representatives of the monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weed flora which can be controlled by the compounds according to the invention shall be mentioned, without the mention being intended as a limitation to certain species.

Particular emphasis is given to the treatment of plants with the compounds or mixtures specifically mentioned in the present text.
If the compounds according to the invention are applied to the soil surface before germination, either the emergence of the weed seedlings is prevented completely or the weeds grow until they have reached the cotyledon stage, but then stop their growth and, finally, die completely after three to four weeks have elapsed.
When the active compounds are applied post-emergence to the green plant parts, growth stops after the treatment, and the harmful plants remain in the growth stage of the time of application or die fully after a certain period of time, so that competition by weeds, which is harmful to the crop plants, is thus eliminated at an early point in time and in a sustained manner.
Although the compounds according to the invention display an outstanding herbicidal activity against monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds, crop plants of economically important crops, for example dicotyledonous crops of the genera Arachis, Beta, Brassica, Cucumis, Cucurbita, Helianthus, Daucus, Glycine, Gossypium, Ipomoea, Lactuca, Linum, Lycopersicon, Miscanthus, Nicotiana, Phaseolus, Pisum, Solanum, Vicia, or monocotyledonous crops of the genera Allium, Ananas, Asparagus, Avena, Hordeum, Oryza, Panicum, Saccharum, Secale, Sorghum, Triticale, Triticum, Zea, are damaged only to an insignificant extent, or not at all, depending on the structure of the respective compound according to the invention and its application rate. This is why the present compounds are highly suitable for the selective control of unwanted vegetation in plant crops such as agriculturally useful plants or ornamentals.
Moreover, the compounds according to the invention (depending on their respective structure and the application rate applied) have outstanding growth-regulatory properties in crop plants. They engage in the plant metabolism in a regulatory fashion and can therefore be employed for the influencing, in a targeted manner, of plant constituents and for facilitating harvesting, such as, for example, by triggering desiccation and stunted growth. Moreover, they are also suitable for generally controlling and inhibiting unwanted vegetative growth without destroying the plants in the process. Inhibiting the vegetative growth plays an important role in many monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crops since for example lodging can be reduced, or prevented completely, hereby.
As already mentioned above, it is possible to treat all plants and their parts according to 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 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”, “parts of plants” and “plant parts” have been explained above.
Particularly preferably, plants of the plant cultivars which are in each case commercially available or in use are treated according to the invention. Plant cultivars are to be understood as meaning plants having novel properties (“traits”) which have been obtained by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. These can be cultivars, bio- or genotypes.
Depending on the plant species or plant cultivars, their location and growth conditions (soils, climate, vegetation period, diet), the treatment according to the invention may also result in superadditive (“synergistic”) effects. Thus, for example, reduced application rates and/or a widening of the activity spectrum and/or an increase in the activity of the substances and compositions which can be used according to the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content, increased flowering performance, easier harvesting, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, higher, quality and/or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products, better storage stability and/or processability of the harvested products are possible, which exceed the effects which were actually to be expected.
Owing to their herbicidal and plant-growth-regulatory properties, the active compounds can also be employed for controlling harmful plants in crops of known genetically modified plants or genetically modified plants which are still to be developed. As a rule, the transgenic plants are distinguished by especially advantageous properties, for example by resistances to certain pesticides, mainly certain herbicides, resistances to plant diseases or causative organisms of plant diseases, such as certain insects or microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria or viruses. Other special properties relate for example to the harvested material with regard to quantity, quality, storability, composition and specific constituents. Thus, transgenic plants with an increased starch content or a modified starch quality or those with a different fatty acid composition of the harvested material are known. Further particular properties may be tolerance or resistance to abiotec stresses, for example heat, cold, drought, salt and ultraviolet radiation.
It is preferred to use the compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention in economically important transgenic crops of useful plants and ornamentals, for example of cereals such as wheat, barley, rye, oats, sorghum and millet, rice, cassava and maize or else crops of sugar beet, cotton, soya bean, oilseed rape, potato, tomato, peas and other vegetables.
It is preferred to employ the compounds of the formula (I) as herbicides in crops of useful plants which are resistant, or have been made resistant by recombinant means, to the phytotoxic effects of the herbicides.
Conventional ways of generating novel plants which, in comparison with existing plants, have modified properties are, for example, traditional breeding methods and the generation of mutants. Alternatively, novel plants with modified properties can be generated with the aid of recombinant methods (see, for example, EP-A-0221044, EP-A-0131624). For example, the following have been described in several cases:

    
    
        recombinant modifications of crop plants for the purposes of modifying the starch synthesized in the plants (for example WO 92/11376, WO 92/14827, WO 91/19806),
        transgenic crop plants which are resistant to certain herbicides of the glufosinate type (cf., for example, EP-A-0242236, EP-A-242246) or of the glyphosate type (WO 92/00377) or of the sulphonylurea type (EP-A-0257993, U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,659),
        transgenic crop plants, for example cotton, which is capable of producing Bacillus thuringiensis toxins (Bt toxins), which make the plants resistant to certain pests (EP-A-0142924, EP-A-0193259),
        transgenic crop plants with a modified fatty acid composition (WO 91/13972),
        genetically modified crop plants with novel constituents or secondary metabolites, for example novel phytoalexins, which bring about an increased disease resistance (EPA 309862, EPA0464461),
        genetically modified plants with reduced photorespiration which feature higher yields and higher stress tolerance (EPA 0305398),
        transgenic crop plants which produce pharmaceutically or diagnostically important proteins (“molecular pharming”),
        transgenic crop plants which are distinguished by higher yields or better quality,
        transgenic crop plants which are distinguished by a combination, for example of the abovementioned novel properties (“gene stacking”).
    
    


A large number of molecular-biological techniques by means of which novel transgenic plants with modified properties can be generated are known in principle; see, for example, I. Potrykus and G. Spangenberg (eds.) Gene Transfer to Plants, Springer Lab Manual (1995), Springer Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg. or Christou, “Trends in Plant Science” 1 (1996) 423-431.
To carry out such recombinant manipulations, it is possible to introduce nucleic acid molecules into plasmids, which permit a mutagenesis or sequence modification by recombination of DNA sequences. For example, base substitutions can be carried out, part-sequences can be removed, or natural or synthetic sequences may be added with the aid of standard methods. To link the DNA fragments with one another, it is possible to add adapters or linkers to the fragments; see, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2nd ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.; or Winnacker “Gene and Klone”, VCH Weinheim 2nd ed., 1996
The generation of plant cells with a reduced activity for a gene product can be achieved for example by the expression of at least one corresponding antisense RNA, a sense RNA for achieving a cosuppression effect or by the expression of at least one correspondingly constructed ribozyme, which specifically cleaves transcripts of the abovementioned gene product.
To this end, it is possible firstly to use DNA molecules which comprise all of the coding sequence of a gene product, including any flanking sequences which may be present, or else DNA molecules which only comprise parts of the coding sequence, it being necessary for these parts to be long enough to bring about an antisense effect in the cells. It is also possible to use DNA sequences which have a high degree of homology with the coding sequences of a gene product, but which are not entirely identical.
When expressing nucleic acid molecules in plants, the protein synthesized may be localized in any compartment of the plant cell. In order to achieve localization in a particular compartment, however, it is possible for example to link the coding region to DNA sequences which ensure the localization in a specific compartment. Such sequences are known to the skilled worker (see, for example, Braun et al., EMBO J. 11 (1992), 3219-3227; Wolter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85 (1988), 846-850; Sonnewald et al., Plant J. 1 (1991), 95-106). The nucleic acid molecules can also be expressed in the organelles of the plant cells.
The transgenic plant cells can be regenerated by known techniques to give intact plants. In principle, the transgenic plants may be plants of any plant species, that is to say both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants.
Thus, transgenic plants can be obtained which feature modified properties as the result of overexpression, suppression or inhibition of homologous (=natural) genes or gene sequences or expression of heterologous (=foreign) genes or gene sequences.
It is preferred to employ the compounds (I) according to the invention in transgenic crops which are resistant to growth regulators such as, for example, dicamba, or to herbicides which inhibit essential plant enzymes, for example acetolactate synthases (ALS), EPSP synthases, glutamine synthases (GS) or hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenases (HPPD), or to herbicides from the group of the sulphonylureas, glyphosate, glufosinate or benzoylisoxazoles and analogous active compounds.
When the active compounds according to the invention are used in transgenic crops, effects are frequently observed—in addition to the effects on harmful plants which can be observed in other crops—which are specific for the application in the transgenic crop in question, for example a modified or specifically widened spectrum of weeds which can be controlled, modified application rates which may be employed for application, preferably good combinability with the herbicides to which the transgenic crop is resistant, and an effect on growth and yield of the transgenic crop plants.
The invention therefore also relates to the use of the compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention as herbicides for controlling harmful plants in transgenic crop plants.
The compounds according to the invention can be used in the form of wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, sprayable solutions, dusting products or granules in the customary formulations. The invention therefore also provides herbicidal and plant growth-regulating compositions which comprise the compounds according to the invention.
The compounds according to the invention can be formulated in various ways according to which biological and/or physicochemical parameters are required. Possible formulations include, for example: wettable powders (WP), water-soluble powders (SP), water-soluble concentrates, emulsifiable concentrates (EC), emulsions (EW) such as oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, sprayable solutions, suspension concentrates (SC), oil- or water-based dispersions, oil-miscible solutions, capsule suspensions (CS), dusting products (DP), seed-dressing products, granules for scattering and soil application, granules (GR) in the form of microgranules, spray granules, coated granules and adsorption granules, water-dispersible granules (WG), water-soluble granules (SG), ULV formulations, microcapsules and waxes.
These individual formulation types are known in principle and are described, for example, in: Winnacker-Küchler, “Chemische Technologie” [Chemical technology], Volume 7, C. Hanser Verlag Munich, 4th Ed. 1986, Wade van Valkenburg, “Pesticide Formulations”, Marcel Dekker, N.Y.; 1973; K. Martens, “Spray Drying” Handbook, 3rd Ed. 1979, G. Goodwin Ltd. London.
The necessary formulation assistants, such as inert materials, surfactants, solvents and further additives, are likewise known and are described, for example, in: Watkins, “Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers”, 2nd Ed., Darland Books, Caldwell N.J., H.v. Olphen, “Introduction to Clay Colloid Chemistry”; 2nd Ed., J. Wiley & Sons, N.Y.; C. Marsden, “Solvents Guide”; 2nd Ed., Interscience, N.Y. 1963; McCutcheon's “Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual”, MC Publ. Corp., Ridgewood N.J.; Sisley and Wood, “Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents”, Chem. Publ. Co. Inc., N.Y. 1964; Schönfeldt, “Grenzflächenaktive Äthylenoxidaddukte” [Interface-active ethylene oxide adducts], Wiss. Verlagsgesell., Stuttgart 1976; Winnacker-Küchler, “Chemische Technologie”, Volume 7, C. Hanser Verlag Munich, 4th Ed. 1986.
Based on these formulations, it is also possible to prepare combinations with other pesticidally active compounds, such as, for example, insecticides, acaracides, berbicides, fungicides, and also with safeners, fertilizers and/or growth regulators, for example in the form of a finished formulation or as a tank mix.
Wettable powders are preparations which can be dispersed uniformly in water and, as well as the active compound, apart from a diluent or inert substance, also comprise surfactants of the ionic and/or nonionic type (wetting agents, dispersants), for example polyoxyethylated alkylphenols, polyoxyethylated fatty alcohols, polyoxyethylated fatty amines, fatty alcohol polyglycol ether sulphates, alkanesulphonates, alkylbenzenesulphonates, sodium lignosulphonate, sodium 2,2′-dinaphthylmethane-6,6′-disulphonate, sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulphonate or else sodium oleylmethyltauride. To prepare the wettable powders, the active herbicidal compounds are ground finely, for example in customary apparatus such as hammer mills, blower mills and air-jet mills and simultaneously or subsequently mixed with the formulation assistants.
Emulsifiable concentrates are prepared by dissolving the active compound in an organic solvent, for example butanol, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, xylene or else relatively high-boiling aromatics or hydrocarbons or mixtures of the organic solvents with addition of one or more surfactants of the ionic and/or nonionic type (emulsifiers). The emulsifiers used may, for example, be: calcium alkylarylsulphonates such as calcium dodecylbenzenesulphonate, or nonionic emulsifiers such as fatty acid polyglycol esters, alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers, propylene oxide-ethylene oxide condensation products, alkyl polyethers, sorbitan esters, for example sorbitan fatty acid esters, or polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters, for example polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters.
Dusting products are obtained by grinding the active compound with finely divided solid substances, for example talc, natural clays such as kaolin, bentonite and pyrophyllite, or diatomaceous earth.
Suspension concentrates may be water- or oil-based. They may be prepared, for example, by wet grinding by means of commercial bead mills and optional addition of surfactants as have, for example, already been listed above for the other formulation types.
Emulsions, for example oil-in-water emulsions (EW), can be prepared, for example, by means of stirrers, colloid mills and/or static mixers using aqueous organic solvents and optionally surfactants, as have, for example, already been listed above for the other formulation types.
Granules can be produced either by spraying the active compound onto adsorptive granulated inert material or by applying active compound concentrates by means of adhesives, for example polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or else mineral oils, onto the surface of carriers such as sand, kaolinites or of granulated inert material. It is also possible to granulate suitable active compounds in the manner customary for the production of fertilizer granules—if desired in a mixture with fertilizers.
Water-dispersible granules are prepared generally by the customary processes such as spray-drying, fluidized bed granulation, pan granulation, mixing with high-speed mixers and extrusion without solid inert material.
For the preparation of pan, fluidized bed, extruder and spray granules, see, for example, processes in “Spray-Drying Handbook” 3rd ed. 1979, G. Goodwin Ltd., London; J. E. Browning, “Agglomeration”, Chemical and Engineering 1967, pages 147 ff; “Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook”, 5th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York 1973, pp. 8-57.
For further details regarding the formulation of crop protection compositions, see, for example, G. C. Klingman, “Weed Control as a Science”, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., New York, 1961, pages 81-96 and J. D. Freyer, S. A. Evans, “Weed Control Handbook”, 5th Ed., Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford, 1968, pages 101-103.
The agrochemical formulations contain generally from 0.1 to 99% by weight, in particular from 0.1 to 95% by weight, of compounds according to the invention.
In wettable powders, the active compound concentration is, for example, from about 10 to 90% by weight; the remainder to 100% by weight consists of customary formulation constituents. In the case of emulsifiable concentrates, the active compound concentration may be from about 1 to 90% by weight, preferably from 5 to 80% by weight. Dust-type formulations contain from 1 to 30% by weight of active compound, preferably usually from 5 to 20% by weight of active compound; sprayable solutions contain from about 0.05 to 80% by weight, preferably from 2 to 50% by weight of active compound. In water-dispersible granules, the active compound content depends partly on whether the active compound is present in solid or liquid form and which granulation assistants, fillers, etc. are used. In the granules dispersible in water, the content of active compound is, for example, between 1 and 95% by weight, preferably between 10 and 80% by weight.
In addition, the active compound formulations mentioned optionally comprise the respective customary adhesives, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, penetrants, preservatives, antifreeze agents and solvents, fillers, carriers and dyes, defoamers, evaporation inhibitors and agents which influence the pH and the viscosity.
The term “active compounds” or “compounds” in each case also includes the active compound combinations mentioned herein.

After cooling, the mixture is poured into ice-water, acidified to pH 3 using conc. hydrochloric acid and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The organic phase is dried (magnesium sulphate), and the solvent is then distilled off and the residue is chromatographed on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane=50:50).
Fraction A:
anti-isomer (I-a-1); yield 1.70 g (40%); colourless crystals of m.p. 104-105° C.

Example I-e-1




At room temperature, 82 mg (0.81 mmol) of triethylamine are added to 0.100 g (0.27 mmol) of the compound (I-a-1) according to the invention and 28 mg (0.30 mmol) of methyl chloroformate in 5 ml of dichloromethane, and the mixture is stirred for another 1 h. The reaction mixture is poured into ice-water, taken up in dichloromethane, washed with water, dried (magnesium sulphate), and the solvent is distilled off.
Chromatographic purification on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane v/v=20:80) gives 104 mg (90%) of the desired compound of the formula (I-c-1) in the form of colourless crystals of melting point 111-112° C.
Example I-c-17




0.98 ml of 2.5% strength solution of osmium tetroxide in n-butanol is added to 1.50 g (4.05 mmol) of 2-(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)-5-methylidene-3-oxo-3,3a,4,5,6,6a-hexahydropentalen-1-yl ethyl carbonate (Example I-c-5) and 4.33 g (20.24 mmol) of sodium meta-periodate in 150 ml of a water/tert-butanol mixture (v/v=50:50), and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. 50 ml of ethyl acetate are then added, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for another 2 h.
The reaction mixture is poured onto ice, taken up in ethyl acetate and extracted with water. After drying (magnesium sulphate) and distillative removal of the solvent, the residue is chromatographed on silica gel using ethyl acetate/hexane (v/v=30:70). This gives 1.00 g (66%) of the desired compound of the formula (I-c-17) as a viscose oil.
1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=1.26 (t, 3H), 3.51 and 4.31 (in each case mc, in each case 1H), 4.20 (mc, 2H) ppm
The following compounds of the formula (I-c) are obtained analogously to Examples (I-c-1) and (I-c-17) and in accordance with the general statements on the preparation:

Preparation of Starting Materials
2-[(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)acetyl]-4-methylidenecyclohexanecarboxylic acid
Example (XIII-1)




At −30° C., 14.48 g (65.7 mmol) of methyl 2-ethyl-4,6-dimethylphenyl acetate (XVII-1) are slowly added dropwise to a solution of lithium diisopropylamide in 250 ml of THF, prepared from 16.3 g (164 mmol) of diisopropylamine and the equimolar amount of a solution of n-butyllithium in hexane, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 45 min. At −20° C., 10.00 g (65.7 mmol) of 4-methylenecyclopentane-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride (XVI-1), dissolved in 20 ml of THF, are then added, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for around 12 h. For work-up, 100 ml of sat. ammonium chloride solution are added, a layer of ethyl acetate is added on top and the mixture is washed with water, dried (magnesium sulphate) and concentrated using a rotary evaporator. This gives 22.3 g of the compound (XIV-1) as a reddish oil which can be reacted without further purification.
1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=1.11 and 1.12, in each case t, in each case 3H), 2.25-2.50 (m, 4H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 2.69 (mc, 2H), 2.72-2.90 (m, 4H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 4.85 (s, 2H) ppm
10 g of potassium hydroxide in 100 ml of water are added to 22.3 g of intermediate (XIV-1), and the mixture is heated at reflux for 24 h. The mixture is then allowed to cool to room temperature, acidified to pH 2 with 2N hydrochloric acid and stirred at room temperature for 1 h, and the precipitated solid is filtered off with suction. This gives 10.3 g (45%) of 2-[(2,6-diethyl-4-methyl-phenyl)acetyl]-4-methylidenecyclohexanecarboxylic acid (XIII-1) as a yellowish solid which can be used without further purification for the next reaction step.

2,6-Diethyl-4-methylbenzyl chloride
Example (XIX-1)




With ice-cooling, 48.0 g (3 equivalent) of N,N-dimethylformamide, dissolved in 50 ml of THF, are slowly added dropwise to a solution of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenylmagnesium bromide, prepared from 6.00 g of magnesium turnings and 50 g of 1-bromo-2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzene in 220 ml of THF, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for another 3 h. The mixture is poured onto a sat. ammonium chloride solution and extracted with ethyl acetate, and the extract is dried (magnesium sulphate) giving, after distillative removal of the solvent, 38.70 g (99%) of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzaldehyde as a colourless oil, 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=1.22 (t, 6H), 2.32 (s, 3H), 2.93 (q, 4H), 6.91 (s, 2H), 10.52 (s, 1H)
The following compounds were prepared analogously:

    2-ethyl-4,6-dimethylbenzaldehyde:


1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 1.22 (t, 3H), 2.32 (s, 3H), 2.57 (s, 3H), 2.95 (q, 2H), 6.92 (mc, 2H), 10.55 (s, 1H) ppm

    2-methoxy-6-ethyl-4-methylbenzaldehyde
    2-cyclopropyl-6-ethyl-4-methylbenzaldehyde
    2,6-cyclopropyl-4-methylbenzaldehyde


A solution of 35.5 g (201.4 mmol) of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzaldehyde, dissolved in 80 ml of diethyl ether is added dropwise to a suspension of 2.10 g (55.4 mmol) of lithium aluminium hydride in 200 ml of diethyl ether. The mixture is then heated at reflux for another 1 h. After cooling, the mixture is hydrolyzed with water and 10% strength sulphuric acid, the phases are separated and the aqueous phase is extracted two more times with diethyl ether. Drying (magnesium sulphate), distillative removal of the solvent and chromatography of the resulting crude product on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane=30:70) gives 33.10 g (92%) of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol in the form of colourless crystals of m.p. 71-72° C. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=1.22 (t, 6H), 2.30 (s, 3H), 2.74 (q, 4H), 4.71 (s, 2H), 6.90 (s, 2H).
Direct preparation of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol from 1-bromo-2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzene




Over a period of 30 min, gaseous formaldehyde (generated from 5.56 g of paraformaldehyde) is introduced with stirring into a solution of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenylmagnesium bromide, prepared from 12.40 g (54.6 mmol) of 1-bromo-2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzene and 1.47 g (60.65 mmol) of magnesium turnings in 50 ml of THF, and the mixture is then stirred at room temperature for another 2 h. Distillative removal of the solvent and chromatography on silica gel (see above) gives 6.88 g (71%) of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol.
The following compounds are prepared analogously:

    2-ethyl-4,6-dimethylbenzyl alcohol: m.p. 40-41° C.
    2-methoxy-4,6-dimethylbenzyl alcohol: m.p. 63-65° C.
    2-cyclopropyl-6-ethyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol
    2,6-cyclopropyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol


11.20 g (94.16 mmol) of thionyl chloride are slowly added dropwise to 15.26 g (85.6 mmol) of 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzyl alcohol in 200 ml of dichloromethane, and the mixture is then heated at reflux for 2 h. After cooling, the mixture is stirred with 50 ml of water for 10 min, and the organic phase is separated off, dried (magnesium sulphate), concentrated using a rotary evaporator and chromatographed in silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane=15:85). This gives 16.18 g (96%) 2,6-diethyl-4-methylbenzyl chloride as a colourless oil. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=1.26 (t, 6H), 2.30 (s, 3H), 2.76 (q, 4H), 4.70 (s, 2H), 6.88 (s, 2H).

Example No. 1
1. Herbicidal Pre-Emergence Action
Seeds of monocotylidonous and dicotylidonous weed and crop plants are placed in sandy loam in wood fibre pots and covered with soil. The test compounds, formulated in the form of wettable powders (WP), are then, as an aqueous suspension with a water application rate of 600 l/ha (converted), with 0.2% of wetting agent added, applied to the surface of the covering soil in different amounts.
After the treatment, the pots are placed in a greenhouse and kept under good growth conditions for the test plants. The visual assessment of the emergence damage on the test plants is carried out after a trial period of three weeks by comparison with the untreated controls (herbicidal effect in percent: 100% effect=the plants have died, 0% effect=like control plants).
In addition to the compounds mentioned above, the following compounds, applied by the pre-emergence method at 320 g/ha a.i., show an effect of ≧80% against Alopecurus myosuroides, Echinocloa crus-galli, Lolium multiflorum and Setaria viridis: I-a-3, I-a-6, I-a-7, I-a-8, I-a-9, I-a-10, I-a-11, I-a-12, I-a-13, I-a-14, I-b-4, I-b-5, I-b-6, I-b-7, I-b-8, I-c-3, I-c-4, I-c-5, I-c-7, I-c-9, I-c-10, I-c-11, I-c-12, I-c-14
2. Herbicidal Post-Emergence Action
Seeds of monocotylidonous and dicotylidonous weed and crop plants are placed in sandy loam in wood fibre pots, covered with soil and cultivated in a greenhouse under good growth conditions. Two to three weeks after sowing, the test plants are treated at the one-leaf stage. The test compounds, formulated as wettable powders (WP), are then with a water application rate of 600 l/ha (converted), with 0.2% of wetting agent added, sprayed onto the green parts of the plants in different amounts. After the test plants have been kept in the greenhouse under optimum growth conditions for about three weeks, the effect of the preparations is assessed visually in comparison to untreated controls (herbicidal effect in percent: 100% effect=the plants have died, 0% effect=like control plants).
In addition to the compounds mentioned above, the following compounds, applied by the pre-emergence method at 80 g/ha, show an effect of ≧80% against Alopecurus myosuroides, Echinocloa crus-galli, Lolium multiflorum and Setaria viridis: I-a-2, I-a-3, I-a-6, I-a-7, I-a-8, I-a-10, I-a-11, I-a-12, I-a-13, I-a-14, I-b-2, I-b-6, I-b-7, I-c-3, I-c-7, I-c-8, I-c-9, I-c-10, I-c-11, I-c-12, I-c-14, I-c-15, I-f-1
Use of Safeners:
If it is to be additionally tested as to whether safeners can improve the plant compatibility of test substances in the case of crop plants, the following options are used for applying the safeners:

    
    
        Seeds of the crop plants are, before sowing, dressed with safener substance (the amount of safener stated in percent, based on the weight of the seed)
        Before the application of the test substances, the crop plants are sprayed with the safener at a certain application rate per hectare (usually one day before the application of the test substances)
        The safener is applied together with the test substance as a tank mix (the amount of safener stated in g/ha or as a ratio, based on the herbicide).

Method crop compatibility small plot trial outdoors:

    
    
        Customary sowing using a single seed seeder
        Plot size: 11.25 m2/two repetitions
    
    


Treatment was carried out using a plot sprayer. The safener was applied together with the test substance as a tank mix using 300 l of water/ha (amounts of herbicide and safener are stated in g of ai/ha). Post-emergence application was carried out at the five-leaf stage of maize. Crop compatibility was assessed visually 14 and 27 days after the treatment (in percent compared to an untreated control), 100% damage=the plants have died, 0% damage=like control plants).

Myzus test (MYZUPE spray treatment)


















Solvents:
78.0 parts by weight of acetone




 1.5 parts by weight of dimethylformamide



Emulsifier:
 0.5 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether










To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, one part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amounts of solvents and emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with emulsifier-containing water to the desired concentration.
Discs of Chinese cabbage leaves (Brassica pekinensis) which are infested by all stages of the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) are sprayed with an active compound preparation of the desired concentration.
After six days, the effect in percent is determined. 100% means that all aphids have been killed; 0% means that none of the aphids have been killed.
In this test, for example, the following compounds of the Preparation Examples show an effect of ≧80% at an application rate of 500 g/ha:
Ex.: I-a-10, I-c-10, I-c-14
Example No. 5










Heliothis virescens test - Treatment of transgenic plants


















Solvent:
7 parts by weight of acetone



Emulsifier:
1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether










To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, one part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent and the stated amount of emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Soya bean shoots (Glycine max) of the cultivar Roundup Ready (trademark of Monsanto Comp. USA) are treated by being dipped into the preparation of active compound of the desired concentration and are populated with the tobacco budworm Heliothis virescens while the leaves are still moist.
After the desired period of time, the kill of the insects is determined.

Critical concentration test/Soil 


insects - Treatment of transgenic plants


















Test insect:
Diabrotica balteata - Larvae in the soil



Solvent:
7 parts by weight of acetone



Emulsifier:
1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether










To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, one part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
The preparation of active compound is poured onto the soil. Here, the concentration of active compound in the preparation is virtually immaterial; only the amount by weight of active compound per volume unit of soil, which is stated in ppm (mg/l) matters. The soil is filled into 0.25 l pots, and these are allowed to stand at 20° C.
Immediately after the preparation, five pregerminated maize corns of the cultivar YIELD GUARD (trademark of Monsanto Comp., USA) are placed into each pot. After two days, the appropriate test insects are placed into the treated soil. After a further seven days, the efficacy of the active compound is determined by counting the maize plants that have emerged (1 plant=20% activity).
Example No. 7
Increase of penetration into the plant by ammonium or phosphonium salts and synergistic increase of penetration into the plant by ammonium/phosphonium salts in combination with penetrants.
In this test, the penetration of active compounds through enzymatically isolated cuticles of apple tree leaves was measured.
Use was made of leaves which, fully developed, were cut from apple trees of the cultivar Golden Delicious. The cuticles were isolated by

    
    
        initially filling leaf discs punched out and stained with dye on the underside by vacuum infiltration with a pectinase solution (0.2 to 2% strength) buffered to a pH between 3 and 4,
        then sodium azide was added and
        allowing the leaf discs treated in this manner to stand until the original leaf structure has dissolved and the non-cellular cuticles have detached.
    
    


Only the cuticles, free from hairs and stoma, of the upper sides of the leaves were then used. They were washed repeatedly alternating with water and a buffer solution of pH 7. The clean cuticles obtained were then mounted on Teflon plates and smoothed and dried with a gentle stream of air.
In the next step, the cuticle membranes obtained in this manner were placed into stainless steel diffusion cells (=transport chambers) for membrane transport studies. To this end, the cuticles were placed with a pincet into the centre of the edges, coated with silicone fat, of the diffusion cells and closed with a ring, which had also been treated with fat. The arrangement was chosen such that the morphological outside of the cuticles was facing outwards, i.e. exposed to air, whereas the original inside was facing the interior of the diffusion cells.
The diffusion cells were filled with a 30% strength ethylene glycol/water solution. To determine the penetration, in each case 10 μl of the spray liquor of the composition below were applied to the outside of the cuticles. The spray liquor was prepared using local tap water of medium hardness.
After the spray liquors had been applied, the water was allowed to evaporate and the chambers were inverted and placed into thermostatic taps in which temperature and atmospheric humidity over the cuticles could be adjusted using a gentle stream of air onto the cuticles with the spray coating (20° C., 60% rh). At regular intervals, an autosampler took aliquots and the active compound content was determined by HPLC.
The test results are shown in the table below. The stated numbers are average values of eight to ten measurements.
