Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
An aqueous slurry or pasty fungicidal composition such as an aqueous emulsion paint, a water paint, an aqueous adhesive, a printing paste and a pulp slurry contains N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) maleimide as an active ingredient.

Description

l 15~6~
The present invention relates to industrial aqueous fungicidal compositions which protect industrial products and raw materials from microorganisms, especially fungi.
Heretofore, the economic growth caused by the growth of microorganisms, such as bac-teria and :Eungi, in industrial produc-ts and raw materials has been serious. For example, fun~i, such as Asperigllus and Cladosporium grow on walls and ceilings, coated with an aqueous emulsion paint or a water paint causing serious disadvantages in hygiene and appearance. Fungi such as Chaetomium, Rhizopus and Aspergillus grow on products such as soap cartons, causing serious damage including deterioration of paper strength and hygiene. Various chemicals have been proposed to prevent such damage. However they are not satisfactory.
In attemp-ts to find chemicals effective for protecting such industrial products and raw materials against such serious damage caused by microor~anisms N-arylmaleimides known as agricultural germicides have been studied. As a result, N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)maleimide known to have germicidal activity aga~nst bacteria such as Staphylococcus aurcus and Eschericha coli (Japanese Examined Patent Publication No.
38819/1974), has been found to have inferior fungicidal activity to find fungicidal compounds for industrial purposes.
The present invention provides an industrial aqueous fun~icidal composition, especially an aqueous slurry or pasty fungicidal composition, such as an aqueous emulsion paint, a water paint, an aqueous adhesive, a printing paste and a pulp slurry.
According to the present invention -there i5 provided an aqueous slurry or pasty fungicidal composition including N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide as an active ingredient.
It has been found that N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) ; .

l 15980~
maleimide having a meltiny point of 130DC as colorless powdery ~ crystals obtained by a dehydrocyclization of 2,4,6-trichloro-i aniline and maleic anhydride has an especially good fungicidal activity agatnst noxious funyi and is very effective for prol-ecting various industrial products and raw materials from damage due to microorganisms, especially fungi. The present invention provides industrial fungicidal compositions containing N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide as an active ingredient. -N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide used in the present i invention can be produced by adding a solution of 2,4,6-trichloro-~ aniline in a solvent, such as toluene dropwise into a solution , :
of maleic anhydride in a solvent, such as toluene, with stirring at about 65C for 2 hours and adding sulfuric acid and refluxing the mixture with stirring for 4 hours to effect reaction and distilling off the solvent after the reaction, pouring the reaction mixture into water and then filtering the precipitated crystals having a melting point of 130 to 132C.
The compound of the present invention can be used by itself and also can be used in a suitable form such as wettable powder, dust, tablet or suspension obtained by admixing with a diluent, or bulking filler or an additive, such as a dispersing ; agent, penetrant and a wetting agent. Most conventional industrial fungicides are not easily soluble in organic solvents whereby their field of the application is quite limited.
However, the compound of the present invention is readily soluble in most solvents, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, solvent naphtha, chloroform, methyl isobutyl ketone, and dimethylformamide whereby an emulsion type composition can be prepared and the field of application are not so limited. The compound of the present invention can be combined with conventional industrial - funyicide such as phenol type fungicides e.g. 2,4,6-trichloro-~ ..

l 1~9604 phenol; chlorine type fungicides e.y. tetrachloroi oph-thalnitrile, and organ~tin compound fungicides e.g. tributyl-tin-oxide and such a synergistic effect may be achieved without reducing the effect of the compounds.
The N-arylmaleimides are known agricultural germicides.
The agrlcultural germicides controlling plant virus growing on plants are quite different from the industrial fungicides for inhibiting fungi grown on industrial products and raw materials in view of locations of applications, types of microorganisms to be controlled and physical properties of the compositions.
Although N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)maleimide has high activity against viruses, the N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide of the present invention has greatly superior activity against fungi. An excellent fungicidal effect when used as an industrial fungicide is found. N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide is especially superior to other maleimide derivatives in the form of an aqueous suspension or pasty composition, such as an aqueous emulsion paint, a water paint, an aqueous adhesive, especially adhesives for bonding paper, etc., a printing paste and a pulp slurry. N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide is preferably incorporated in the composition in the form solubilized with a surfactant, especially in the form of an emulsifiable concentrate or a wettable powder.
The content of N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)maleimide in the composition is not critical and is sufficient to impart the fungicidal activity and can be considered from the minimal growth inhibition, and is preferably more than 100 ppm, especially more than 200 pp~.
The present invention will be further illustrated by the following Examples and References:
_ AMPLE 1 (Tests for minimal growth inhibition concentration) ~ 159604 Each wettable powder was prepared by mixing and pulver-izing 50 wt. parts of each active ingredient, 2 wt. parts of a surfactant (Neopelex: a trademark of Kao-Atlas Co.), 2 wt.
parts of an extract (Sunex P: a trademark of Sanyo Pulp Co.), and 46 wt. parts of diatomaceous earth. Each minimal growth inhibition concentration against various fungi was measured by the agar dilution method by using the prepared wettable powders. The results are shown in Table 1.
