Description:
DESCRIPTION 
     The present invention relates to novel aminopyrimidine derivatives, to processes for their preparation to agents containing them, and to their use as fungicides. 
     Pyrimidine derivatives have already been disclosed as effective components in fungicidal agents (cf. EP-A-270,362, EP-A-259,139, EP-A 234,104). However, the action of these pyrimidine derivatives is not always satisfactory, in particular when low amounts are applied. 
     Novel pyrimidine derivatives which have advantageous actions in the control of a broad range of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular at low application rates, have been found.

     In this context, the alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl radicals can be straight-chain or branched. Halogen is F, Cl, Br or I, preferably P, Cl and Br. Here and below the prefix &#34;halo&#34; in the name of a substituent means that this substituent can occur once or several times in an identical or different meaning.

     or 
     the two radicals R 7  and R 8  together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded stand for an unsubstituted or up to disubstituted 5- to 7-membered, saturated or unsaturated heterocycle which has 1 or 2 identical or different hetero atoms, preferably the hetero atoms nitrogen and/or oxygen, and the substituent (C 1  -C 3 )alkyl,

     The following acids are suitable for the preparation of the acid addition salts of the compounds of the formula I: hydrohalic acids, such as hydrochloric acid or hydrobromic acid, furthermore phosphoric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, monofunctional or bifunctional carboxylic acids and hydroxycarboxylic acids, such as acetic acid, maleic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, salicylic acid, sorbic acid or lactic acid, and also sulfonic acids, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid or 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonic acid. The acid addition salts of the compounds of the formula I can be obtained in a simple manner by customary salt formation methods, for example by dissolving a compound of the formula I in a suitable organic solvent and adding the acid, and they can be isolated in a known manner, for example by filtration, and, if appropriate, purified by washing with an inert organic solvent. 
     The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the compounds of the formula I, wherein a compound of the formula II is reacted with a compound of the formula III in the presence of a base. ##STR3## 
     In this context, the substituents R 1  to R 8  are as defined in formula I. X stands for halogen. Halogen is fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, in particular chlorine or bromine. 
     The compounds II are preferably reacted with III in inert aprotic solvents such as, for example, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, toluene, xylene, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dialkyl ethers, such as diethylene glycol dialkyl ethers, in particular diethylene glycol diethyl ether, or DMF, at temperatures between -10° C. and the boiling point of the solvent. Bases which are suitable are those which are customary for this type of reaction, such as, for example, carbonates and hydrogen carbonates of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal alcoholates such as potassium tert.-butylate, or tertiary amines, pyridine or substituted pyridine bases (for example 4-dimethylaminopyridine). 
     It is also possible for a second equivalent of the compounds of the general formula III to take over the base function. 
     The compounds of the formula II can be prepared by known processes (cf. EP-A-234,104, EP-A-259,139, EP-A-270,362, J. Org. Chem. 12, 1591, (1967)). The compounds of the formula III are known and readily accessible (Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Org. Chemie [Methods in Organic Chemistry], Vol. XI/1). 
     The compounds of the formula I according to the invention are distinguished by an excellent fungicidal action. Fungal pathogens which have already penetrated the plant tissue can be successfully controlled curatively. This is particularly important and advantageous in the case of those fungal diseases where control with other customary fungicides after infection has taken place is no longer effective. The range of action of the claimed compounds embraces a multitude of various economically important phytopathogenic fungi such as, for example, Pyricularia oryzae, Venturis inaequalis, Cercospora beticola, powdery mildew species, Fusarium species, Plasmopora viticola, Pseudoperonospora cubensis, various rusts and Pseudocercosporelia herpotrichoides. It acts particularly well on Botrytis cinerea strains which are sensitive and resistant to benzimidazol and dicarboximide. 
     In addition, the compounds according to the invention are also suitable for use in industrial sectors, for example as wood protection agents, as preservatives in paints, in cooling lubricants for metal processing, or as preservatives in drilling and cutting oils. 
     The invention also relates to agents which contain the compounds of the formula I besides suitable formulation auxiliaries. 
     The agents according to the invention contain the active substances of the formula I in general in amounts of from 1 to 95% by weight. 
     They can be formulated in many ways, depending on the biological and/or physicochemical parameters. The. following formulations are therefore possible: wettable powders (WP), emulsifiable concentrates (EC), aqueous solutions (SC), emulsions, sprayable solutions, oil- or water-based dispersions (SC), suspoemulsions (SC), dusts (DP), seed treatment agents, granules in the form of microgranules, spray granules, coated granules and adsorption granules, water-dispersible granules (WG), ULV formulations, microcapsules, waxes or baits. 
     These individual formulation types are known in principle and are described, for example, in: Winnacker-Kuchler, Chemische Technologie [Chemical Technology], Volume 7, C. Hauser Verlag Munich, 4th Ed., 1986; van Valkenburg, &#34;Pesticides Formulations&#34;, Marcel Dekker N.Y., 2nd Ed. 1972-73; K Martesn, &#34;Spray Drying Handbook&#34;, 3rd Ed. 1979, G. Goodwin Ltd. London. 
     The formulation auxiliaries required, such as inert materials, surfactants, solvents and other additives, are likewise known and are described, for example, in: Watkins, &#34;Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers&#34;, 2nd Ed., Darland Books, Caldwell N.J.; H. v. Olphen, &#34;Introduction to Clay Colloid Chemistry&#34;, 2nd Ed., J. Wiley &amp; Sons, N.Y.; Marschen, &#34;Solvents Guide&#34;, 2nd Ed., Interscience, N.Y. 1950; McCutcheon&#39;s &#34;Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual&#34;, MC Publ. Corp. Ridgewood N.J.; Sisley and Wood, &#34;Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents&#34;, Chem. Publ. Co. Inc., N.Y. 1964; Schonfeldt, &#34;Grenzflachenaktive Athylenoxidaddukte&#34; [Surface-active Ethylene Oxide Adducts]&#34;, Wiss. Verlags-gesell., Stuttgart 1976; Winnacker-Kuchler, &#34;Chemische Technologie [Chemical Technology]&#34;, Volume 7, C. Hauser Verlag Munich, 4th Ed. 1986. 
     Combinations with other pesticidally active substances, fertilizers and/or growth regulators may also be prepared on the basis of these formulations, for example in the form of a readymix or as a tank mix. 
     Wettable powders are preparations which are uniformly dispersible in water and which, besides the active substance, also contain wetting agents, for example polyoxethylated alkylphenols, polyoxethylated fatty alcohols, alkylsulfonates or alkylphenolsulfonates, and dispersing agents, for example sodium ligninsulfonate, sodium 2,2&#39;-dinaphthylmethane-6,6&#39;-disulfonate, sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulfonate, or alternatively sodium oleylmethyltaurinate, in addition to a diluent or inert substance. Emulsifiable concentrates are prepared by dissolving the active substance in an organic solvent, for example butanol, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, xylene and also higher-boiling aromatic compounds or hydrocarbons, with the addition of one or more emulsifiers. Examples of emulsifiers which can be used are: calcium salts of an alkylarylsulfonic acid, such as Ca dodecylbenzenesulfonate, or non-ionic emulsifiers, such as fatty acid polyglycol esters, alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers, propylene oxide/ethylene oxide sorbitan fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters or polyoxyethylene sorbitol esters. 
     Dusting agents can be obtained by grinding the active substance with finely divided solid substances, for example talc or natural clays, such as kaolin, bentonite, pyrophyllite or diatomaceous earth. Granules can be produced either by spraying the active substance onto adsorptive, granulated inert material or by applying active substance concentrates onto the surface of carriers, such as sand, kaolinites or granulated inert material, by means of binders, for example polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or, alternatively, mineral oils. Suitable active substances can also be granulated in the manner which is conventional for the production of fertilizer granules, if desired in a mixture with fertilizers. 
     The concentration of active substance in wettable powders is, for example, about 10 to 90% by weight, the remainder to 100% by weight is composed of conventional formulation components. In the case of emulsifiable concentrates, the concentration of active substance can be about 5 to 80% by weight. Formulations in the form of dusts usually contain 5 to 20% by weight of active substance, sprayable solutions about 2 to 20% by weight. In the case of granules, the active substance content depends partly on whether the active compound is liquid or solid and on which granulation auxiliaries, fillers etc. are used. 
     In addition, the active substance formulations mentioned contain, if appropriate, the adhesives, wetting agents, dispersing agents, emulsifiers, penetrants, solvents, fillers or carriers which are conventional in each case. 
     For use, the concentrates, present in commercially available form, are diluted, if appropriate, in a customary manner, for example using water in the case of wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, dispersions and in some cases, also in the case of microgranules. Preparations in the form of dusts or granulated preparations and also sprayable solutions are usually not further diluted with other inert substances before use. 
     The application rate required varies with the external conditions, such as, inter alia, temperature and humidity. It can vary within wide limits, for example between 0.005 and 10.0 kg/ha or more of active ingredient; preferably, however, it is between 0.01 and 5 kg/ha. 
     The active substances according to the invention can be used, in their commercially available formulations, either by themselves or in combination with other fungicides known from the literature. 
     Examples of fungicides which are known from the literature and which can be combined according to the invention with the compounds of the formula I, are the following products: Imazalil, prochloraz, fenapanil, SSF 105, triflumizol, PP 969, flutriafol, BAY-MEB 6401, propiconazol, etaconazol, diclobutrazol, bitertanol, triadimefon, triadimenol, fluotrimazol, tridemorph, dodemorph, fenpropimorph, falimorph, S-32165, chlobenzthiazone, parinol, buthiobate, fenpropidin, triforine, fenarimol, nuarimol, triarimol, ethirimol, dimethirimol, bupirimate, rabenzazole, tricyclazole, fluobenzimine, pyroxyfur, NK-483, PP-389, pyroquilon, hymexazole, fenitropan, UHF-8227, cymoxanil, dichlorunanid, captafol, captan, folpet, tolylfluanid, chlorothalonil, etridiazol, iprodione (formula II), procymidon, vinclozolin, metomeclan, myclozolin, dichlozolinate, fluorimide, drazoxolan, chinomethionate, nitrothalisopropyl, dithianon, dinocap, binapacryl, fentin acetate, fentin hydroxide, carboxin, oxycarboxin, pyracarbolid, methfuroxam, fenfuram, furmecyclox, benodanil, mebenil, mepronil, flutalanil, fuberidazole, thiabendazole, carbendazim, benomyl, thiophanate, thiophanatemethyl, CGD-94340 F, IKF-1216, mancozeb, maneb, zineb, nabam, thiram, probineb, prothiocarb, propamocarb, dodine, guazatine, dicloran, quintozene, chloroneb, tecnazene, biphenyl, anilazine, 2-phenylphenol, copper compounds such as Cu oxychloride, oxine-Cu, Cu oxides, sulfur and fosetyl aluminum, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, sodium dodecylsulfate, sodium C 13/  Cl5-alcohol ether sulfonate, sodium cetostearyl phosphate ester, dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate, sodium isopropylnaphthalenesulfonate, sodium methylenebisnaphthalenesulfonate, cetyl trimethylammonium chloride, salts of long-chain primary, secondary or tertiary amines, alkylpropyleneamines, laurylpyridinium bromide, ethoxylated quaternized fatty amines, alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride and 1-hydroxyethyl-2-alkylimidazoline.

     EXAMPLE 9 
     Wheat plants cv. liubilar, in the 2-leaf stage were treated to runoff point with aqueous suspensions of the preparations given in Table 9. 
     After the spray coating had dried on, the plants were inoculated with an aqueous pyknospore suspension of Leptosphaeria nodorum and incubated for several hours in a controlled-environment chamber at 100% relative atmospheric humidity. The plants were grown further in a greenhouse at about 90% relative atmospheric humidity until the symptoms became apparent. 
     The degree of effectiveness is expressed as a percentage relative to the untreated, infected control and can be seen from Table 9.
