Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to a phenylhydrazone derivative of oxamide useful as active ingredient of herbicidal composition and to the herbicidal compositions containing said derivatives as active ingredient. 
     Hitherto, 1-(2-tolyl)hydrazone of N-benzoyloxamide and 1-(3-tolyl)hydrazone of N-benzoyloxamide have been reported as phenylhydrazone derivatives of oxamide (Journal of the Chemical Society, 575, 1962). However, no disclosure has ever been made about the phenylhydrazone derivatives of oxamide represented by the following formula (I): ##STR2## (wherein R 1  is straight-chain alkyl group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, branched alkyl group or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms which is substituted with an alicyclic structure having 3 to 7 carbon atoms, phenyl group, halogen-substituted phenyl group, aralkyl group having 7 to 9 carbon atoms, alkenyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms alkyl group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms which is subsutituted with alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or alkyl group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms which is substituted with 1 to 19 fluorine atoms; and R 2  is hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, methyl group or methoxy group, and the fact that such derivatives have an excellent selective herbicidal activity. 
     Rice, wheat and corn are the important crops, and use of a herbicide is essential for increasing the yield of such crops by protecting them against harm by weeds. Thus, the development of the herbicides, especially the ones having a selective herbicidal activity enabling killing of weeds alone without doing any practical harm to the crops even if applied to the crops and weeds at the same time, has been strongly desired. 
     The present inventors have made extensive studies on the compounds showing an excellent herbicidal effect but not doing any practical harm to the useful crops such as rice, wheat and corn, and found that the phenylhydrazone derivatives of oxamide represented by the following formula (I) have the excellent selective herbicidal activities: ##STR3## wherein R 1  is straight-chain alkyl group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, branched alkyl group or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms which is substituted with an alicyclic structure having 3 to 7 carbon atoms, phenyl group, halogen-substituted phenyl group aralkyl group having 7 to 9 carbon atoms, alkenyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms, alkyl group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms which is substituted with alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or alkyl group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms which is substituted with 1 to 19 fluorine atoms; and R 2  is hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, methyl group or methoxy group. 
     The present invention was attained on the basis of this finding. 
     Thus, the present invention has for its object to provide a phenylhydrazone derivative of oxamide having a selective herbicidal activity, that is, showing excellent herbicidal activities against the gramineous weeds and, in particular, broadleaf weeds, while doing no harm to the crops such as rice, wheat and corn, and a herbicidal composition containing such derivatives as active ingredient.

     SYNTHESIS EXAMPLE 1 
     Synthesis of 1-(3-methylbutoxy)methyl-3-nitrobenzene ##STR23## 
     Seventy-eight g (1.39 mol, 1.5 equivalent) of KOH pellets were added into a solution prepared by dissolving 158.1 g (0.92 mol) of 3-nitrobenzyl chloride into a mixture of 500ml (4.59 mol, 5 equivalents) of 3-methyl-1-butanol and 140 ml of dimethylformamide under vigorous stirring while cooling the solution with a water bath. The temperature rose up to 43° C. but thereafter it lowered gradually to return to room temperature. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 7 hours to complete the reaction. 
     The solids in the reaction solution were filtered out. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 2 with hydrochloric acid and then excess alcohol and dimethylformamide were distilled off. The residue was dissolved in a mixed solvent of 450 ml of n-hexane and 50 ml of ethyl acetate, then washed with 1N HCl and a saturated sodium chloride solution successively and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off and the residue was fractionally distilled. The fraction having a boiling point of 116°-117° C. (at 0.08 mmHg) was collected and 185.2 g of 1-(3-methylbutoxy)methyl-3-nitrobenzene was obtained in a 90.1% yield. 
     SYNTHESIS EXAMPLE 2 
     Synthesis of 3-[(3-methylbutoxy)methyl]aniline ##STR24## 
     A hundred and thirty g (0.58 mol) of the nitrobenzene derivative obtained in Synthesis Example 1 was dissolved in 150 ml of ethanol, followed by the addition of 0.6 g of 10% palladium carbon. Under stirring, 89 ml (1.84 mol) of hydrazine hydrate was added dropwise to the solution at a rate which would not cause violent foaming. Thereafter, the mixed solution was refluxed on a hot water bath for 3 hours to complete the reaction. The filtrate was allowed to cool by itself and, after filtering out the catalyst, washed with ethanol. The filtrate was concentrated, dissolved in 300 ml of dichloromethane, washed with a 10% sodium carbonate solution and a saturated sodium chloride solution successively, and dried over anhydrous potassium carbonate. The solvent was distilled off and the residue was fractionally distilled. The fraction having a boiling point of 105°-106° C. (at 0.19 mmHg) was collected and 109.2 g of 3-[(3-methylbutoxy)methyl]aniline was obtained in a 97.1% yield. 
     SYNTHESIS EXAMPLE 3 
     Synthesis of 4-[3-[(3-methylbutoxy)methyl]phenyl]hydrazone of 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxazoline-4,5-dione ##STR25## 
     A solution of 3.94 g of 2-fluorohippuric acid and 3.28 g of sodium acetate in 17.4 ml of acetic anhydride was stirred at 60° C. for 20 minutes to prepare 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxazoline-5-one, and was quickly cooled with ice-water. 
     Separately, 3.48 g (18 mmol) of 3-[(3-methylbutoxy)methyl]aniline obtained in Synthesis Example 2 was dissolved in a mixture of 3.4 ml of 35% hydrochloric acid and 12 ml of acetic acid, and the solution was stirred under cooling with ice-water Then, the solution was added with 2.8 ml of isopentyl nitrite and further stirred for 10 minutes to prepare a diazonium salt. 
     The previously prepared mixture containing 2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxazoline-5-one was stirred under cooling with ice-water, and the diazonium salt prepared above was added thereto over a period of 2 minutes, followed by stirring for 30 minutes. The solution was further stirred for 1.5 hour and then added with 40 ml of ice-water and 20 ml of petroleum ether, followed by 2-hour stirring. The orange-colored precipitate was filtered out and air-dried to obtain 2.45 g of the objective compound in a 35.5% yield. 
     EXAMPLE 1 
     Synthesis of 1-[3- [(3-methylbutoxy)methyl]phenyl]hydrazone of 1-(2-fluorobenzoyl)oxamide (Compound No. 17) 
     One and a half g of phenylhydrazone derivative of 2-oxazoline-4,5-dione synthesized in Synthesis Example 3 was added to 30 ml of ether and stirred at room temperature. The solution was added with 0.5 ml of a 35% NH 3  solution, stirred for 30 minutes and then added with 60 ml of hexane. The precipitate was filtered out and air dried to obtain 1.22 g of the objective compound having a melting point of 138°-140° C. in a 78% yield.

     EXAMPLE 6 
     Effect on crop field weeds (by post-emergence treatment) 
     The seeds of the specified plants were sown by following the same procedure as Example 5. When the plants have grown to the one- to two-foliage stage, the wettable powder prepared in the same way as Example 2 and diluted with water was uniformly sprayed to the stalks and leaves of the plants and on the soil surface by a spray gun so that the active ingredient would be applied at a rate of 200 g/10 a. Then the planters were left in a glasshouse to allow growth of the plants under control. 
     Twenty-one days after the treatment, the herbicidal effect of the compounds and phytotoxicity of the crops were observed and evaluated in the same way as in Example 5. The results are shown in Table 4.

     EXAMPLE 7 
     Effect on paddy field weeds and phytotoxicity to rice plant 
     In the 1/2000-are Wagner pots packed with paddy field soil and watered to simulate a paddy field, the seeds of Echinochloa Crus-galli var. hispidula, Scirpus juncoides subsp. Hotarui, Alisma canaliculatum. Monochoria vaginalis and Cyperus difformis were sown and the tubers of Sagittaria pygmaea and Cyperus serotinus were planted. Further, two 2-foliage seedlings of rice plant (variety: Sasanishiki) were transplanted in the pots. Then the pots were left in a glass house to allow growth of the plants for three days. Then the emulsions prepared in the same way as Example 3 and diluted with water to a predetermined concentration were uniformly trickled down to the water surface in each pot so that the active ingredient would be applied at a rate of 200 g/10 a. 
     Twenty-one days after said treatment, the herbicidal effect of the compounds and the degree of phytotoxicity of the rice plants were examined and evaluated according to the same ratings as in Example 5.
