Description
WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 CHEMICAL PINCHING METHOD AND COMPOSITION Background Suckers in Virginia tobacco are chemically controlled by using two main types of substances: contacts (fatty alcohols, such as n-decanol) and systemics, such 5 as maleic hydrazide (MH). Fatty alcohols are generally very effective in killing small suckers, but they are characterized by a disgusting smell, which can be very annoying for farmers during the distribution on the cultivars, causing nausea, vomiting, suspension of work, etc. Furthermore people living in the surrounding areas may complain about 10 the smell and limit the tobacco producer's ability to use this valuable chemical pinching agent in cultivation of his tobacco. To overcome this problem new formulations have been developed containing n-decanol and a specialized polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate. These new formulations are effective at reducing odor without altering their biological activity 15 and, above all, without causing any negative side-effect on the characteristics of flue-cured tobacco leaves, which might be detrimental for cigarette manufacture. Attempts have surprisingly not been successful directed to modifying the n-decanol formulations to contain some flavoring substances which are supposed to mask the smell of fatty alcohols. 20 Summary of the Invention One aspect of this invention is a method of inhibiting the growth of suckers in tobacco plants which comprises applying to said tobacco plants after topping an effective amount for inhibiting tobacco sucker growth of an aqueous solution containing as active ingredient from about 10% to about 90% by weight of a 25 saturated C 6 to C 1 8 fatty alcohol and about 90% to about 10% of polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester comprising a mixture of mono, di and triesters. Another aspect of this invention is disclosed wherein said polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester comprises a polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester having the formula -1- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 (O CH 2

3 wherein w + x + y + z is between 6 and 25. Detailed Description of The Invention The long chain fatty acid of this invention constitutes the active ingredient of the formulation for chemical suckering of tobacco but the critical factor in masking 5 the objectionable odor of the fatty acid is the presence in the polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester of an Gas Chromatographic peak between 18.00 minutes and 19.00 minutes of column retention time. Fig 1 shows the GC trace for the polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester of the control standard n-decanol formulation (20/80 weight ratio). Fig 2 shows the polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester of this invention 10 showing clearly second peak from the left having a retention time of 18.5 minutes is present but is not present in the polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester of the commercial control formulation which is Royaltac, a product of Uniroyal Chemical Company. This surprising result in decreasing odor in the applied formulation is believed to derive from the particular component of the polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester 15 represented by this critical GC peak. In order to detect this peak any recognized analytic method may be utilized, but the following was used to generate the traces of Fig 1 and Fig 2. Formulating Methods A water-containing or aqueous emulsion, the most preferred embodiment of 20 the invention, is prepared from a solution, as described below, into which a surface -4- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 active agent has been added. A suitable liquid solution is formed by dissolving the active ingredient, saturated C 6 to C 1 8 fatty alcohol in an aqueous or organic solvent. In most cases, the solvent which acts as the carrier, is an organic solvent. 5 Preferred solvents include aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene and xylene. Additional solvents that are preferred include such organic compounds as acetone, methanol, isopropanol, tert-butyl alcohol, cyclohexanone, dioxane, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethylene dichloride, diacetone alcohol and N-methylpyrrolidone. 10 Surface active agents suitable for purposes of forming effective aqueous emulsions within the contemplation of our invention are known to those skilled in the art. McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers, Allured Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey (1970); U.S. Patent 2,514,916, at Columns 2 to 4; and 15 U.S. Patent 2,547,734, at Columns 3 and 4, for example, provide detailed examples of such surface active agents suitable for this purpose. As is indicated in these references, the surface active agent may be anionic, non-ionic or cationic. In yet another embodiment of our present invention, our composition can take the form of an aerosol. In preparing this aerosol, we prefer to dissolve the 20 compound of formula I in a first solvent. The first solvent is conventional in the sense that it is not highly volatile. The resulting solution is then admixed with a second solvent that is highly volatile. The volatile second solvent is commonly called a "liquid aerosol carrier." The aerosol carrier is liquid only under elevated pressure. At ambient 25 temperature and pressure, namely 25 degrees Celsius and one (1) atmosphere pressure, such an aerosol carrier is typically a gas. Other optional ingredients may also be desirable for particular applications including: emulsifying agent, wetting agent, spreaders, solubilizers, stickers, foam suppressors and drift control agents at effective levels, generally between .01 and 2 -5- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 weight per cent. Gas Chromatographic Test Method The following method was utilized to determine the presence critical component of the which occurs at 18.5 +/- 0.5 minutes as shown in Fig I and Fig 2. 5 The samples to be tested were weighed into 3 ml reactive vials and magnetic stirring fleas were added along with 1 ml of Silanization Reagent [BSA; TMCS; TMSI 3:2:3 [N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide + Trimethylchlorosilane + N-trimethyl silylimidazole] was added. 1 ml of toluene was added to allow the sample and Reagent to mix and react. The samples were allowed to stir (while lightly capped to 10 prevent excess air/humidity from entering and to allow pressure release) for 30-40 min. The sampled were then quantitatively transferred with HPCC grade methylene chloride to clean labeled 10ml volumetric flasks. The samples were then brought to the mark with additional methylene chloride. (Uf=-I O0ml) they were then sampled for GC analysis. 15 The above reaction conditions were the result of a first attempt at a much lower concentration of sample and longer reaction time.

Tobacco field trials In these experiments, the traditional formulation of n-decanol -called control formulation with the Fig 1 GC curve- was compared with the formulation of this invention having Fig 2 GC trace. Both formulations were 80/20 n-decanol to 30 polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester. Two large scale field experiments were carried out, -6- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 one in Central Italy referred to as Region 1 (results in Table 1) and the other in Northern Italy referred to as Region 2 (results in Table 2). In order to have fragrance and efficacy evaluations, some trials were carried out on some large tobacco farms Regions 1 and 2, treating hundreds of hectares with 5 the formulation of this invention and the control product without the specialized ingredient having the 18.5 minute GC peak of this invention. Trial in Region 1 The trial in Region 1 was carried out on a silty-clay soil, with a pH of 7.9, organic matter content of 1.7% and low nitrogen content. Tobacco was grown 10 following the normal farm practices in central Italy, as reported in Table I. N decanol for sucker control was applied as a water solution of the formulated products (4% v/v). The Control formulation and the formulation of this invention were compared using a randomized block design, with four replications and a plot 15 surface-area of 20 m 2 . Chemicals were sprayed by using a Plot Oxford Precision Sprayer, equipped with a single-row bar, fitted with three solid cone nozzles (TG1-TG3-TG1), delivering 600 1 ha -I spray solution at 100 kPa pressure. During the treatments, nozzles were kept 20 cm above the plants. 20 Biological activity was recorded by collecting all the apical suckers in each plot, counting and weighing them (fresh and dry weight). The average length of the suckers in each plot was also recorded. Tobacco leaves were harvested in three different times 20 days apart. At each harvesting time, leaves from each plot were separately weighed, combined over replications and cured in different barns, to 25 avoid cross contamination. Flue-cured leaves were placed in separate polyethylene bags for each treatment and stored for cigarette smoke flavor evaluation. Flue-cured leaves were evaluated for quality, by a technical commission composed of three experts from the state agency with responsibility. During this evaluation, the extrinsic characteristics of tobacco leaves (development, color, tissue -7- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 texture, consistency, etc...) were subjectively recorded and used to estimate the percentage of yield to be assigned to each of the three commercial grades A, B and C (A being the highest quality grade). Trial in Region 2 5 The second trial was carried out on a sandy soil, following the normal farming practices for Northern Italy, with respect to the choice of the cultivar (K326), the date of transplanting (28.5.96), plant spacing (1.10 x 0.37 m), plot surface area (374 m 2 ). Biological activity was recorded. Fragrance Evaluation 10 The acceptability of the smell of each formulation including the control formulation was assessed with respect to the currently used commercial formulation. In all the trials, subjective evaluations were made during the distribution, both by the operator and by other assistants. In both trials some technicians followed the sprayer during the applications and recorded the smell on a scale from 0 to 100 (in 15 terms of intensity, acceptability, persistence and diffusion). Results Biological Activity In the trial in central Italy, both formulations gave a good control of apical suckers, with no significant differences among them. 20 Acceptability of the Smell Results obtained in Region 1 are summarized in Table 1. In all the cases and regardless of the formulation, a prolonged exposure to the smell of Control formulation resulted in some nuisance for all the people involved in the experiments. The flavor of the formulation of this invention proved to be characterized by a high 25 intensity at the treatment and two hours later, but it was considered, due to its "neutral" smell, more acceptable than the commercial one. -8- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 TABLE 1 Formulation At the 2 hours 8 hours 24 hours treatment later later later A I I I I Ex. 1-invention 50 80 60 20 20 Control formulation 0 100 70 40 20 5 Footnotes to Table: I=intensity of smell.

The A scale=0-100 with [0=unpleasant 10=acceptable. * Number of replication of readings that support these averages is 5 persons The Example 1-the formulation of the invention, was considered to be much 10 more acceptable than the commercial formulation for its smell and low intensity and persistence.

The scale=0-100 with [0=unpleasant 10=acceptable. * Number of replication of readings that support these averages is 5 persons 20 All the trials in these two years showed that the new formulations of this invention's formulation are as effective as the currently used one in controlling suckers in tobacco. Furthermore the abovementioned formulations did not -9- WO 98/51148 PCT/US98/09731 negatively influence the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of flue-cured tobacco. Concerning the smell of fatty-alcohols, the formulation of this invention proved to be more acceptable than the standard formulations. Example 1, the 5 formulation of the invention, proved to have a less intense smell compared to the Control formulation and thus was more acceptable for the operators working on the two experimental farms, for the farmers of the tobacco farms and for people living in the surrounding area. Because of its "neutral" smell, this formulation was considered the best one to solve the problem of the unpleasant smell of fatty alcohols 10 both Regions 1 and 2, the biggest producers (90%) of Virginia tobacco in Italy. - 10-
