Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present invention is concerned with a method for selective control of weeds in corn, (maize) wherein a highly active and non selective herbicide, N-(2'-methoxyethyl)-2,6-dimethyl-chloracetanilide is applied before or after emergence/together with a safening agent (antidote) selected from a small group of N,N-disubstituted dichloro-acetamides.
The invention is also concerned with compositions including such herbicides and safeners.

Description

It is known that many herbicides in important crops of cultivated plants have no, or too little, selective action, i.e. in addition to the weeds to be destroyed they also injure the cultivated plants to a greater or lesser degree. This applied to most classes of herbicide, e.g. triazines, urea derivatives, carbamates, thiolcarbamates, haloacetanilides etc.
This property has particularly disadvantageous conse-quences in large scale crops, such as cereals and maize, and despite successful efforts to find herbicides of good selectivity, this problem has still not been completely satisfactorily solved.
On the other hand, substances have been proposed for pretreating seeds, e.g. for providing cereal and maize seeds with protective layers before sowing in order to make them resistant to specific herbicides. Both the protective agent and the herbi-cide are very largely species-specific with respect to the culti-vated plant. Thus in German Offenlegungsschrift 1.952.910 issued June 25, 1970 to Gulf and in French patent 2.021.611 issued July 24, 1970 to Gulf, the use of 1,8-naphthalic acid derivatives, oxamic acid derivatives ~derivatives of the oxylic monoamide HOOC-CONH2) and malonic diamide has been proposed for treating cereal and maize seeds in order to protect these against attack by herbicidal N,N-dialkylated thiocarbamic acid-S-alkyl esters.
Earlier, proposals had already been made for treating cereal seeds with the most diverse substances, such as hydroxyaminoacetanilide, dichloroxanthenones, hydantoins, isopropyldithiocarbamate salts, N-methyl-dichlorobenzene-sulphonamide etc.~ in order to protect the seeds against *he action of herbicidal carbamates, such as IPC, CIPC ~German patent 1.576.076 issued 1968 to Gulf, United States patent 3.131.509 issued May 5, 1968 to Gulf).
Of more recent date are publications relating to the ~' . .

treatment of the seeds and shoots of corn and sorghum with N,N-disubstituked oxamic acid esters, diallyl proprionamide, diallyl acetamide, naphthalates etc. in order to protect these against attack by N-methoxymethyl-~2',6'-diethylchloroacetanilide) cf.
British patent 1.277.557 issued June 14, 1972 to Gulf.
This particular seed treatment before sowing entails substantial economic disadvantages, in particular the expenditure in terms of labour and money involved in the special steps carried out in special mixing devices for the large amounts of seeds which are sown in large-scale crops.
Attempts have therefore already been made to find what are known as safening agents or antidotes which can be applied not to the seeds, but either together with, or before or after, the herbicidal applica*ion to the crop area to be sown, or which has already been sown (preemergent treatment), or after the seeds have germinated ~post-emergent treatment), and which have the same pro-tective effect, i.e. they cause the non-selective herbicide to act selectively in that the weeds are damaged as much as possible with-out any more injury to the cultivated plants. Belgian patent 771.928 issued February 29, 1972 to Stauffer and German Offenle-gungsschrift ~Stauff0r) describe such an agent for protecking cereals against the herbicidal action of thiolcarbamates and ~riazines.
Besides these herbicides, this agent contains antidote halogenated alkanesulphonates of the type X- ~CH2) -0-S02-R

herein X represents a halogen atom, R represents alkyl, haloalkyl, halogen, acetoxy(halo)-alkyl, aryl, and n is a whole number from 1 to 5.
~ere too a pronounced species-specificity of the herbicides and the antidote on cereals is evident.

Finally, there has recently appear0d a publication ~German Offenlegungsschrift 2.218.097 issued October 14, 1972 to Stauffer) in whic}l, besides a straight forward pretreatment of the seeds with halogenated alkoylamides, there are also described herbicidal agents which contain such haloalkoylamides as antidotes.
The majority of the antidotes described and tested therein are used specifically with respect to the active com-ponents in the application o~ herbicidal thiolcarbamates and mixtures thereof with other herbicidal active substances. The emphasis is clearly on antagonising undesirable injury to the crop plants by thiolcarbamates. It is true that this publica-tion does also mention among the herbicides to be protected ckloroacetanilides as mixture components and individual active substances. However, the individual tests with such active substances refer only to two her~icides of this type, namely ~ N-methoxymethyl-2,6-diethyl-chloro-acetanilide ~"~ASSO") without ~, antidote and with an uneconomic surplus of an antidote in sorghum vulgare, and N-isopropyl-chloroacetanilide ~"RA~ROD") without antidote and with a surplus of antidote in corn. Despite the surplus of antidote, the result in both cases was far from con-vincing, the decrease in injury of the crop plant with the anti-dote moderate, and the ultimate injury determined still consider-able (20%). It is known that, in contradistrinction to other and recent, more active chloroacetanilides, no antidote at all is required when applying these two herbicides to maize.
It is probably for this reason that, despite a vast number o tests, this publication contains no further examples witk ckloroacetanilides as herbicides. Evidently, the applicant of German Offenlegungsschrift 2.212.268 issued ~ dcl O ~h ~ rK, -- ~ 1 3 ~86 September 28, 1972 to Sumetomo has not realised the exceptional-ly important fact that other more active chloroacetanilides of different constitut:ion can be conspicu-.

e ously improved in their selective ~ct$vlty against weeds incereals and maize by small amounts oE some of the antidotes proposed by her, and for this reago~ has proposed these antidotes with proved success onl~ together with thiolcarha-mates as herbicides.
Whereas certain herbicides oE the triazine and phenylurea series are already knwon ~or the selective control of weeds in cereals and maize and ~e con~lercially available, it has not been possible to avail ~f more recent haloacetani-lides to the desired extent on ac~ount o~ their generally unsatisfactory selectivity in cereQl and ~aize plantations, since they cause severe injury to these crop plants, which means diminishedyield, and still no effective antidote against such haloacet~nilides has become known.

Specific disclosure of _he invention The surprisin~ discovery has now been made that~ contrary to the presumptions to be inferred Erom the literature, it is possible to impart firstrat~ protection to n~ize plan~s from injury by ~he above mèntiohed herbicidal chloracetanilide by treating the ~oll with a N,N-di-substituted dichloracetamide.

of weeds in maize cultures, which consists in treating the seeds or the crop areas intended for the cultivation of maize in which the seeds are to ~e sown, or which have been sown, or in which the seeds have already germinated, simultaneously or successively, in optional saquence and in an appropriate interval of time, on the one hand with a herbicide, the chloroacetanilide of the formula I, and on the other with an antidote of the N,N-disubstituted dichloracetami.de of the above formula II which protects the germinated crop plants and/or the seeds thereof.
The invention is also concerned with an agent for selective control of weeds in maize, which contains as herbicidally active component the chloroacetanilide of the formula I as well as an atidote of the formula II.

~f The followil-~" ~ests were carried out to determine the selecti.ve herbicidal actinn of chloroacetanilides of the for~-nula I alone and togetheL with anti~otes of the , formula II:

\~ N 2 2 J m.p. ~ 42~45 \===,~\ CO - CH 2C l was used as herbicidal active substance.
This compound was manufactured by reacting 2,6-dimethyl-aniline with methoxyacetaldehyde dissolved in benzene in the presence of trimethylamine by boiling to give 1-(2'-methoxy~ethylidene-amino)-2,6-dimethylbenzene (b.p. 58-61C/O.l Torr), converting this product by hydrogenation in ethanol with palladium-charcoal to N-(2'-methoxyethyl)-2,6-xylidine (b.p. 64C-65~C/0.2 Torr), and reacting this latter as a suspension together with potassium bicarbonate in benzene with chloroacetyl chloride.
N,N-diyllyl-dichloroacetamide (B) and N3-dichloroacetyl-2,2-dimethyl-1~3-oxyzolidine (C) were used as antido~,e, bo~h substances described in German OE~enlegungsschrift2.21$~0~7 g (Lxamples 1 and 42), as well as N-ethy'l.-N-al.lyl-dichloro-acetamide (D) and N-isopropyl--N-al].yl~dlchloroacetamide (E). Aqueous stock broths(suspenslorls) were prepared from wettable powders based on substances A, B, C, D, and E, and these suspenslons were applled 'both ~ingly and as mixtures, in the i.ndicated concentra~lons and mixture ratios, immediately after the test plants had been sown in seed dishes in a greenhouse, to the surface of t'he soil in the dishes, The seed dishes were then kept for 24 dags at 22 to 23C and 50% to 70% relative humidity while appropriately watering the dishes and the emergent plants.
The results were evaluated ater 13 and 24 days accordi.ng to a scale of rating from 1-9:
9 = plants not injured (as untreated control) 1 = plants completely withered 2 to 8 = intermediate stages of injury As test plants there were used:

~ ~ 168~6 The results show clearly that the crop plant maize, which is virtually completely destroyed after 13 days using a rate o application of 2 kg/ha of herbicide A alone, suffers no more injury at all even after 24 days using the same amount of herbicide together with only 1/4 the amount ~0.5 kg/ha) of the antidote B, C, D or E, whereas all weeds are just as severely injured as without the antidote. It can even be seen that better results are often obtained with the application of smaller amounts of antidote than with larger ones. No surplus of antidote is therefore necessary and the ratio of antidote to herbicide can be 1:4.
It is advisable in practice, especially in regions with low rainfall, not only to apply the agent according to the invention to the surface of the soil, but to work it into the soil before the crop plants are sown~ thus preventillg only the perhaps more soluble herbicide from pene-trating into the soil when rainfall is slight and the antidote which remains on the surface from not being sufficiently active.
In the above tests, a surface treatment of the soil alone was sufficient to prove clearly an optimum effectiveness of the antidote lCI
