Abstract

Abstract of the disclosure:

Herbicidal compositions containing phosphinothricine, its ester, salts or oligopeptides, in combination with inorganic or organic ammonium salts, amines and/or inorganic or organic chelating agents.

Description

~ ~2~7~

The recently found phosphinothricine type herbicides of the formula 3 \
P ~ CH2 - CH2 - CH - COOH

have a good contact activi~y and are well absorbed by leaves, so that they are suitable for non-selectively combating weeds of all botanic classes. They are therefore applicable against undesirable plant growth on farming grounds, industrial areas etc. ~see German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2,717,440).
Herbicides of the phosphinothricine type are effective against annual as well as perennial weeds and weed grasses. Some economically import-ant perennial weeds such as quack-grass (Agropyron repens), Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon), perennial cyperaceae and corresponding dicotyledonous weeds,however, are sufficiently combated only with increased herbicide amounts.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that the addition to phosphino-thricine and its derivatives of certain types of organic and inorganic compoundswhich for themselves have no herbicidal activity produces a pronounced syner-gistic effect, that lS, considerably increases the herbicidal efficiency againstannual and perennial weeds.
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a herbicidal composition which comprises an amount of:
~ A) a phosphinothricine derivative of the formula H C O
~:: 3 ~ 11 P - CH - CH - CH - COOH
~; / 2 2 in which R is hydrogen or ~Cl-C4)-alkyl, a salt thereof with an acid or base or a peptide thereof, in combination with;

l 162~7~

B~ an inorganic or organic ammonium salt of the formula R2 _ N - R4 X II
R n in which Rl to R4, being identical or different, each are hydrogen, ~Cl-C4)-alkyl or hydroxyethyl, or two of the radicals Rl to R4 together with the nitro-gen atom form a 3- to 7-membered ring a -CH2 group of which may be replaced by 0, NH or N(Cl-C4)-alkyl; X is the anion of an inorganic or organic mono- or polybasic acid and n is 1, 2 or 3, or with the free base from which the salt of the formula II are derived, or with a precursor metabolizing under physiologi-cal conditions to a compound of the formula II; or C) an inorganic or organic chelating agent, selected from the group consisting of polybasic organic acids or their salts, and water-soluble poly-phosphates of different chain length which are used in the soap and detergent industry, wherein the weight ratio of components A to B or C is from 4 : 1 to 150, with the proviso that, if R in formula I is hydrogen, the compound B
is not a free base. Preferably, the peptide in component A is phosphinothricyl-alanyl-alanine.
According to another aspect of the present invention there is pro-vided a method for combating weeds which comprises applying to the areas infested by them the above composition in an amount of from 0.125 to 35 kg of active substance ~component A ~ component B or C) per hectare.
Phosphinothricine and its derivatives have an asymmetric carbon atom, and thus may be present in the form of racemates or optionally active enantlomers, the L-enantiomer of which is especially preferred in accordance wlth the invention.
; A) Due to their amphoteric nature, phosphinothricine and its esters are able to form salts with inorganic and organic bases and acidsj which salts 07~

may likewise be used for the compositions of the invention. When using bases, compounds are formed in which R is cation equivalent. The following cation equivalents are particularly important: Na , K , 1/2 Ca , lt2 Zn , 1/2 Mg N~ N~(CH3)4, H2N (CH3)2, H2N ~C2H5)2, NH ~C2H5)3' 3 3 3 3 7 4 9 2 3 7 )2~ H3N CH2CH20H, H2N (CH2CH20H), HN~CH CH OH) ~CH3)3N CH2CH20H, (CH3)2N HCH2CH20H, CH3N H2CH2CH20H, (CH3)2N HC12H25, and the guanidinium ion.
When using strong bases, the -COOH group is ionized, too, and diso-dium or dipotassium salts, for example, are obtained in these cases.
1~ For salt formation with acids, any inorganic and organic acids such as HCl, HBr, H2S04, H3PO4, }INO3 or CH3COOH may be used.
In accordance with the invention, oligopeptides of phosphinothricine are alternatively suitable as component A, such as phosphinothricyl-alanyl-alanine which is described in ~ -3a-1 182~71 Helv. Chim. Acta 55, 224 seq. (1972).
B) The B type compounds are preferably ammonium salts (R1 to R4 = H), but salts of organic ammonium bases with any anions (see A) may also be used. Preferred organic ammonium salts have cations such as enumerated sub A) and anions such as Cl , Br , S04 , HS04, P03 , Hpo42 , , '~2P04, CH3COO , (COO )22 , or SCN .
Compounds which metabolize in the ?lant to form ammo-nium ions are likewise useful, for example urea, aspartic or glutamic acid.
Instead of the ammonium salts II, the free bases from which they are derived, for example triethylamine or piperi-dine, may be used in combination with phosphinothricine - esters, salts or peptides.
C) Suit~ble complexing agents of type C are for example polybasic organic acids such as oxalic, succinic, tartaric, citric, nitrilotriacetic or ethylenediamine-tetra-acetic acid (EDTA~ or their salts, furthermore water-soluble polyphosphates of different chain length (metaphosphates, triphosphates) which are used in the soap and detergent industry. Such complexing agents are described for example in O.A. Neumuller: Rompps Chemielexikon, 7nd. ed. 1972, pp. 545 and 2768 seq.
The compounds of types B ànd C can be combined with the A type herbicides either individually, or several of them in any number may be employed.
The mixing ratio of the individual components in the combinations of the invention may vary within wide limits. A synergistic effect is observed at a ratio of A : B(C) between 4 : 1 and 1 : 150. For practical reasons, the mixing ratio is chosen in a range of from 2 : 1 to 1 : 50, preferably 1 : 1 to 1 : 10.
The mixtures of the invention may have the form of ready-to-use formulations, for example wettable powders or emulsifiable concentrates, which are applied in usual manner as aqueous dilutions, or as so-called tank mixtures which are prepared immediately before application by common~ dilu~
tion of the separately formulated components with water.

I lB207~

Alternatively, the herbicides and the synergists may be separately applied as spray liquors or aqueous solutions;
the sequence of the components being irrelevant.
The application concentration of the A type herbicides in the mixtures of active substances is generally from 0.10 to 5 kg/ha, that of B and C from 0.025 to 30 kg/ha; that iS3 the total amount of active substance combination is in the range of .rom about 0.125 to 35 kg/ha.
The compositions o. the invention can be employed in form of the usual formulations known to the expert skilled in the art, for example as wettable powders, dusts, granu-les, emulsifiable concentrates or sprayable solutions, and contain generally from 2 to 95 weight % of the combinations of active substances according to the invention.
Wettable powders are formulations which are uniformly dispersible ln water and which, in addition to the active compound, and a diluent or inert material, also contain wetting agents, for example, polyoxyethylated alkylphenols, alkylsulfonates or alkylphenylsulfonates, and dispersing agents, for example sodium ligninsulfonate, sodium-dinaph-thylmethane-disulfonate, or the sodium salt of oleoyl-methyl-taurir.e.
Emulsifiable concentrates are obtained by dissol~ing the active ^ompound in an organic solvent, for example, butanol, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, xylene or even higher-boiling aromatics, and adding an emulsifier, for example, a polyoxyethylated alklphenol.
In the case the herbicidai compositions, the concen-trations of the active compounds in the commercial formula-tions can vary. In wettable powders, the active compoundconcentration (herbicide and synergist) varies, for example, between about 1u and 95 %, the remainder consisting of one or more of the above-mentioned formulation additives. In the case of emulsifiable concentrates, the active compound concentration is about 10 to 80 %. Dust formulations usually contain 5 - 20 g of active compound, and sprayable solutions about 2 - 20 %. In the case of granules, the active compound content in part depends on whether the ,. .

1 16207~

active compound is in a liquid or solid form and what granu-- Lating auxiliaries, fillers and the like are used.
If necessary or desired the commercial concentrates may be diluted prior to application in the usual manner, for example by means of water in the case of wettable powders and emulsifiable concentrates. Dust, granules and sprayable solutions are generally ready for use without further dilu-tion with inerc materials. The amount of active ingredient necessary for obtaining th desired result depends on exter-nal conditions such as temperature, humidity and the like.
The actiYe compounds according to the invention can becombined with other herbicides, fungicides and insecticides.
The following examples illustrate the invention.

i5 E X A M P L E
Seeds of annual weeds and rhizomes of perennial noxious plants were placed in pots of plastic material filled with loamy soil, and left in a greenhouse under favorable growth conditions. After 3 weeks, the plants had formed 3 to 4 leaves, in which stage they were sprayed either with the herbicide at varying dosage, or with mixtures of herbicide and synergists; the application concentration being main-tained at a constant 12 kg/ha. For comparison, further test plants were treated with a solution of the synergist alone.
In all cases, the amount of liquid corresponded to 600 l/ha.
3 Weeks after the treatment, the degree of damage of the plants treated was evaluated in comparison with the ~ntreated control.
The results listed in Table 1 show that the synergist alone did not damage the plants, but in combination with the test herbiclde considerably increased the herbicidal effect.
In the case of Alopecurus, for example, a herbicide concen-tration of 0.~ kg/ha yielded an 80 % damage of the plants;
the same degree of damage was attained at a herbicide amount of 0.15 kg/ha only with the addition of 12 kg/ha of the synergist.
The improved effect in the perennial weeds Agropyron (quack-grass), Cyperus (nutsedge) and Cyanodon (Bermuda 6~71 grass) by addition of the synergists was also remarkable.
These are weeds of special economic importance, which are normally difficult to combat.

Without addition of ammonium sulfate two or even four times the amount of phosphinothricine derivative was necessary in order to attain the same herbicidal effect.

In combating perennial weeds, suppression of resprout-ing from underground plant organs (rhizomes, root-stocks) is particularly important.

Quack-grass plants were grown under greenhouse condi-tions in buckets of plastic material filled with sandy loam, and in the 5 to 6 leaf stage were sprayed with varying doses of phosphinothricine ammonium salt (A III) alone and in com-bination with 4 kg/ha of ammonium sulfate (B I) (water corresp. to 400 l/ha). After a residence time of 4 weeks in the greenhouse the overground parts of the treated and un-treated plants were cut off and the recipients were placed for a further 7 weeks in the greenhouse. Thereaf~er, the leaves which had sprouted anew were cut off, dried at 100C, and the dry mass of the leaves was determined.
The dry leaf mass per recipient of treated test plants was compared with that of untreated controls. The results are l~stad in Table 6.
Addition of ammonium sulfate to all doses of active substance resulted in increased suppression of resprouting while ammonium sulfate alone had no effect at all. The results demonstrate that in the case of perennial plants ammonium sulfate obviously increases the systemic effect of phosphinothricine and thus prolongs the lasting effect of this herbicide.

According to the method of Example 1, plants were grown and sprayed in the 3 to 4 leaf stage with solutions of the compounds indicated in Tables 7 and 8. The water amount correspGnded to 400 l/ha (with synergists B V, B VI, B VII) and 200 l/ha (with B VIII).
4 Weeks after application the damage was evaluated.
As Tables 7 and 8 demonstrate, the ethanolamine salts and piperidine generally improved the herbicidal action of phosphinothricine ammonium salt. In combination with the synergists about one half of the amount of A III required when using the herbicide alone was sufficient to achieve the same degree of activity. When used alone, the synergists had no herbicidal activity.
