German Patent Publication Nos. 2,643,403 and 2,643,445, published April 7, 1977, disclose the use of N-~alkylthiocarbonylethyl)acetanilides for controlling fungi, particularly those of the class Phycomycetes.
Netherlands Patent Publication No. 152,849, published April 15, 1977, discloses the use of N-~alkoxymethyl)acetanilides as fungicides.
Belgian Patent No. 867,556, published November 27, 1978, dis-closes 3-~N-cyclopropylcarbonyl-N-arylamino)-gamma-butyrolactones.
Belgian Patent No. 863,615, published August 3, 1978, discloses fungicidal 3-~N-acyl-N-arylamino)-gamma-butyrolactones.
It has been found that 3-~N-thionoacyl-N-arylamino-gamma-butyrolac-tones and butyrothiolactones are effective for the control of fungi, espe-cially for downy mildew fungal infection caused by fungal species of the Peronosporaceae family and late blight fungal infection caused by Phytophthora infestans. Some of the compounds of the invention are effec-tive both as protectant fungicides, i.e., they prevent or protect against fungal infections, and as eradicant fungicides, i.e., they eliminate and cure established infections. The compounds of the invention are especially l~S8~;S4 preferred for the control of grape downy mildew.

028 The compounds of the invention are useful for control-029 ling fungi, particularly plant fungal infections. However, 030 some fungicidal compositions of the invention may be more fungi-031 cidally active than others against particular fungi. For 032 example, the activity of the preferred compounds of the 033 invention is highly specific for certain fungal diseases such 034 as downy mildews, e.g., Plasmopara viticola (grapes) and 035 Peronospora parasitica (cabbage and collard), late blights, 03~ e.g., Phytophthora inestans tomatoes and potatoes), and crown 037 and root rots, e.g., Phytopbthora.
038 The compounds of the invention are particularly oig useful fungicides because they cure established ungal infec-040 tions. This permits economical use of the fungicides of the in-041 vention, because they need not be applied to plants unless 042 fungal infection actually occurs. Thus, a preventative progr~m 043 of apolying fungicides against potential fungal infection is 044 not necessary.
r~
002 When used as fungicides, the compounds of the inven-003 tion are applied in fungicidally effective amounts to fungi 004 and/or their habitats, such as vegetative hosts and nonvegeta-005 tive hosts, e.g., animal products. The amount used will, of 006 course, depend on several factors such as the host, the type of 007 fungus and the particular compound of the invention. As with 008 most pesticidal compounds, the fungicides of the invention are 009 not usually applied full strength, but are generally incorpo-010 rated with conventional, biologically inert extenders or 011 carriers normally employed for facilitating dispersion of 012 active fungicidal compounds, recognizing that the formulation 013 and ~,ode of application may affect the activity of the fungi-014 cide. Thus, the fungicides of the invention may be formulated 015 and applied as granules, as powdery dusts, as ~ettable powders, 016 as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions, or as any of 017 several other known types of formulations, depending on the 018 desired mode of application.
019 ~Jettable powders are in the form of finely divided 020 particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant.
021 These compositions normally contain from about 5-80% fungicide, 022 and the rest inert material, which includes dispersing agents, 023 emulsifying agents and wetting agents. The powder may be 024 applied to the soil as a dry dust, or preferably as a suspen-025 sion in water. Typical carriers include fuller's earth, kaolin 026 clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, wettable, inorganic 027 diluents. Typical wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents 028 include, for example: the aryl and alkylaryl sulfonates and 029 their sodium salts, alkylamide sulfonates, including fatty 030 methyl taurides; alkylaryl polyether alcohols, sulfated higher 031 alcohols and polyvinyl alcohols; 2olyethylene oxides, sul-032 fonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils, 033 fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide 034 addition products of such esters; and the addition products of 035 long-chain mercaptans and ethylene oxide. ilany other ty~es of 03~ useful surface-active agents are available in commer~e. The 037 surface-active agent, when used, normally comprises from l~ to 038 l~ by weight of the fungicidal composition.
~586S4 002 Dusts are freely flowing admi~tures of the active 003 fungicide with finely divided solids such as talc, natural 004 clays, kieselguhr, pyrophyllite, chalk, diatomaceous earths, 005 calcium phosphates, calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfur, 006 lime, flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act 007 as dispersants and carriers for the toxicant. These finely 008 divided solids have an average particle size of less than about - 009 50 microns. A typical dust formulation useful herein contains 010 75~ silica and 25% of the toxicant.
011 Useful liquid concentrates include the emulsifiable 012 concentrates, which are homogeneous liquid or paste composi-013 tions which are readily dispersed in water or other dispersant, 014 and may consist entirely of the fungicide with a liquid or 015 solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier 016 such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, and other 017 nonvolatile organic solvents. For application, these concen-018 trates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and are 019 normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated.
020 Other useful formulations for fungicidal applications 021 include si~ple solutions of the active fungicide in a disper-022 sant in which it is completely soluble at the desired con-023 centration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or 02~ other organic solvents. Granular formulations, wherein the 025 fungicide is carried on relatively coarse particles, are of 026 particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration 027 of cover-crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, typically aerosols 028 wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided 029 form as a result of vapori~ation of a low-boiling disoer~ant 030 solvent carrier, such as the Freons, may also be used. All of 031 those techniques for formulatIng and applying fungicides are 032 well known in the art.
033 The percentases by weight of the fungicide may vary 034 according to the manner in which the composition is to be 035 applied and the particular type of for~ulation, but in general 036 comprise 0.5 to 95~ of the toxicant by weight of the fungicidal 037 composition.
_ / /
002 The fungicidal compositions may be formulated and 003 applied with other active ingredients, including other fungi-004 cides, insecticides, nematocides, bactericides, plant growth OOS regulators, fertilizers, etc.

028 The compounds of the invention are useful for control-029 ling fungi, particularly plant fungal infections. However, 030 some fungicidal compositions of the invention may be more fungi-031 cidally active than others against particular fungi. For 032 example, the activity of the preferred compounds of the 033 invention is highly specific for certain fungal diseases such 034 as downy mildews, e.g., Plasmopara viticola (grapes) and 035 Peronospora parasitica (cabbage and collard), late blights, 03~ e.g., Phytophthora inestans tomatoes and potatoes), and crown 037 and root rots, e.g., Phytopbthora.
038 The compounds of the invention are particularly oig useful fungicides because they cure established ungal infec-040 tions. This permits economical use of the fungicides of the in-041 vention, because they need not be applied to plants unless 042 fungal infection actually occurs. Thus, a preventative progr~m 043 of apolying fungicides against potential fungal infection is 044 not necessary.
r~
002 When used as fungicides, the compounds of the inven-003 tion are applied in fungicidally effective amounts to fungi 004 and/or their habitats, such as vegetative hosts and nonvegeta-005 tive hosts, e.g., animal products. The amount used will, of 006 course, depend on several factors such as the host, the type of 007 fungus and the particular compound of the invention. As with 008 most pesticidal compounds, the fungicides of the invention are 009 not usually applied full strength, but are generally incorpo-010 rated with conventional, biologically inert extenders or 011 carriers normally employed for facilitating dispersion of 012 active fungicidal compounds, recognizing that the formulation 013 and ~,ode of application may affect the activity of the fungi-014 cide. Thus, the fungicides of the invention may be formulated 015 and applied as granules, as powdery dusts, as ~ettable powders, 016 as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions, or as any of 017 several other known types of formulations, depending on the 018 desired mode of application.
019 ~Jettable powders are in the form of finely divided 020 particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant.
021 These compositions normally contain from about 5-80% fungicide, 022 and the rest inert material, which includes dispersing agents, 023 emulsifying agents and wetting agents. The powder may be 024 applied to the soil as a dry dust, or preferably as a suspen-025 sion in water. Typical carriers include fuller's earth, kaolin 026 clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, wettable, inorganic 027 diluents. Typical wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents 028 include, for example: the aryl and alkylaryl sulfonates and 029 their sodium salts, alkylamide sulfonates, including fatty 030 methyl taurides; alkylaryl polyether alcohols, sulfated higher 031 alcohols and polyvinyl alcohols; 2olyethylene oxides, sul-032 fonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils, 033 fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide 034 addition products of such esters; and the addition products of 035 long-chain mercaptans and ethylene oxide. ilany other ty~es of 03~ useful surface-active agents are available in commer~e. The 037 surface-active agent, when used, normally comprises from l~ to 038 l~ by weight of the fungicidal composition.
~586S4 002 Dusts are freely flowing admi~tures of the active 003 fungicide with finely divided solids such as talc, natural 004 clays, kieselguhr, pyrophyllite, chalk, diatomaceous earths, 005 calcium phosphates, calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfur, 006 lime, flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act 007 as dispersants and carriers for the toxicant. These finely 008 divided solids have an average particle size of less than about - 009 50 microns. A typical dust formulation useful herein contains 010 75~ silica and 25% of the toxicant.
011 Useful liquid concentrates include the emulsifiable 012 concentrates, which are homogeneous liquid or paste composi-013 tions which are readily dispersed in water or other dispersant, 014 and may consist entirely of the fungicide with a liquid or 015 solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier 016 such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, and other 017 nonvolatile organic solvents. For application, these concen-018 trates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and are 019 normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated.
020 Other useful formulations for fungicidal applications 021 include si~ple solutions of the active fungicide in a disper-022 sant in which it is completely soluble at the desired con-023 centration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or 02~ other organic solvents. Granular formulations, wherein the 025 fungicide is carried on relatively coarse particles, are of 026 particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration 027 of cover-crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, typically aerosols 028 wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided 029 form as a result of vapori~ation of a low-boiling disoer~ant 030 solvent carrier, such as the Freons, may also be used. All of 031 those techniques for formulatIng and applying fungicides are 032 well known in the art.
033 The percentases by weight of the fungicide may vary 034 according to the manner in which the composition is to be 035 applied and the particular type of for~ulation, but in general 036 comprise 0.5 to 95~ of the toxicant by weight of the fungicidal 037 composition.

002 The fungicidal compositions may be formulated and 003 applied with other active ingredients, including other fungi-004 cides, insecticides, nematocides, bactericides, plant growth OOS regulators, fertilizers, etc.
