Abstract

"RODENTICIDAL COMPOSITIONS"

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

Compositions having rodenticida] activity are disclosed which are constituted by a solution of a compound having anti-coagulant activity and which is an indane dione or a 4-hydroxycoumarin in a glycol, possibly in admixture with a volatile co-solvent which increases the solvent activity of the glycol for the anti-coagulant compound.
The composition is stable and may be applied to solid or liquid baits or used to form trail poisons.

Description

This invention relates to compositions having rodénti-cidal activity and intended for use in the destruction of ro dents such as rats and mice, and to a method for the destruction of rodents.
Several derivatives of indane-diones and ~-hydro~y-coumarins are known to possess the property of lowering the amount of prothrombin in the blood. For this reason, they may be used as rodenticides, producing high mortality in rats and rnice by causing lntexnal hemorrhaging~ However compositions containing these compounds lack satisfactory storage properties, tending to be unstable or tending to render bait to which they are applied unattractive to rodents.
It is an object of this invention to provide a rodenti-cidal composition which is stable during storage.
It is another object of this invention to provide a rodenticidal composition which does not impair the attraction to rodents of bait to which it is applied.
According to this invention, there is provided a com-position having rodenticidal activity comprising a compound selected from the group consisting of chlorophacinone, diphaci-none, bromadiolone, and coumachlor, in a rotenticidal amount, dissolved in a glycol and a volatile co-solvent miscible with the glycol in which said compound is more soluble than in said glycol, said glycol and said co-solvent being in a weight ratio selected to provide a greater solubility of said compound than in said glycol alone, said weight ratio being within the range of about 5-5.5.
This invention also provides a method of killing rod-ents which compr:ises applying to or placing in a rodent habitat or rodent infested location a composition wherein said volatile

co-solvent is acetone or dichloromethane, and said glycol is ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or a polyoxyethylene gly-col.

~ ~ 3 ~

,. .. , : . . . . . .

It has now been found that indane~diones and 4-hydroxycoumarins, in general, exhibit satisfactory solubility in glycols, for example propylene glycol, ethylene glycol and polyoxyethylene glycols, such as polyoxyethylene glycol 300 that i~ polyoxyethylene glycol of molecular weight 300, thereby yielding solutions which are stable over a substantial length of time.
Moreover, when the solubility of the rodenti-cidally active compounds in a glycol is too low for thedesired concentration o~ the compound to be achieved, a volatile co-solvent, miscible with the glycol, for example, dichloromethane or acetone, may be employed to yield a stable solution which may have a concentra-tion of the order of 10 g/kg.
Any indane-dione or 4-hydroxycoumarin which ;~
is an effective rodenticide, that is possesses anti-coagulant properties, may be employed in the composi-tions of this invention. Such compounds are exemplified by the following 4-hydroxycoumarins:
(l-phenyl-2-acetyl)-3-ethyl-4-hydroxycoumarin, commonly known as Warfarin, 3-(~-acetonyl-4-chlorobenzyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin, commonly known as Coumachlor, -~3-(4'-hydroxy-3'-coumarinyl~-3-phenyl-1-(4'-bromo-4'-biphenyl)]-l-propanol, commonly known as Bromadiolone,
3-(3'-paradiphenylyl-1',2',3', 4'-tetrahydro-1'-naphthyl)- `-
4 hydroxycoumarin commonly known as Difenacoum and ;

3-(1 ,2 ~3 ,~ -tetrahydro-l -naphthyl)-~-hydroxycoumarin commonly known as Coumatetralyl, and the following indane-diones, 1,1-diphenyl-2-acetyl-1,3-indane-dione, commonly known as Diphacinone arld (l -p-chlorophenyl-l -phenyl)-2-acetyl-1~3-indane-dione, commonly known as Chlorodiphacinone.
The concentration in a glycol of the rodenticidal compound is preferably frorn Ool to 10 g/kg.
The solutions in glycols, irrespectlve of whether they additionally contain solvents miscible witll th~ ylycol used are chemically s-table. They can be coloured with water-soluble dyes and may contain compounds for imparting an aroma thereto.
T~le solutions of rodent:icides in ~Jlycols may -be used to impregnate baits which are based on cereals, for example wheat, maize~ barley and oats~ or any other support which is likely to be eaten by thc rodents, for example apples or carrots. These solutions in glycols can also be used to impregnate an absorbent substance or powder to form a trail poison.
Moreover,when the solutions in glycol are diluted with water they can be used as toxic drinks for the rodents and can be sprayed on plan-ts or par-ts of pllnts which are usually catcn by tilf' rodents. ~;
