- 2 -HOE 82/F ~01 It ;s known that 1-benzhydrylimidazole-5-carboxy-lic acid d~rivatives possess fungicidal and also herbici-dal activity (German Offenlegungsschrift 2,732,531).
It has now been found, surprisingly, tha~ imida-zole-S-carboxylic acid derivatives in which ~he 1-position of the imidazole ring is substituted by a ~,6-dialkylphe-nyl rad;cal, ;.eO der;vatives of 1~t2,6-d;alkylphenyl)-imida~ol~-5-carboxylic acid, wh;ch, moreover~ can be pre-pared more easily than the àbove 1-ben~hydryl compounds, are also very good fungicides and also display remarkable herbicidal and growth-regulating properties~ and that it is furthermore poss;ble to obtain 1-substituted im;dazole-S-carboxyl;c acid derivatives in a simpler manner than that hitherto described.
The present invention therefore relates to 1-sub-stituted ;midazole-5 carboxylic acid derivatives of the forrnula tI) R 2 ~ C ~ X _ ;~1 t I ) in ~hich X is ~, S or Nr particularly 0~
R1 denotes hydrogen~ phenyl, C2- to C6~alkenyl, preferablY C3-alkenylj or C1- to C12-alkyl, in particular C1- to c6-alkyl, it being possible ,or the alkyl group to be monosubstituted to trisu~-stitu~ed - also ~ith different substituents - pre-ferably monosubstituted, by C1- to C6-alkoxy, in particular C~- or C2-alkoxy or C1- to C3-d;alkyl-am;no or by halogen, and two îdent;cal or d;ffer-ent radicals R1 being a~tached to N if X = N.
If X ~ O or S, R1 can also represent the cation of a metal of the Io II or VII group of the peri-odic system, for instance 7n, Cu or Mn, preferabLy an alkal; metal cation, or ammonium.
R2 denotes a radical of the formula ~II) ,~

The invention also reLates to processes for the preparation of the new compounds and to their use as bio-cides, in particular fungicides, herbicides and growthregulators~

In addition to the known processO ~hich, however, ;s tedious, three process variants are available fQr the preparation of the 1~substituted imidazoLe-5-carboxylic ac;d der;vat;ves from the b;sformyl esters:
In process variant a) the b;sformyL esters (V) or (Va) are reacted w;th a carboxam;de having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, most su;t2bly formamide, wh;ch acts at the same t;me as the solvent, advantageously in the presence of strong ac;ds, preferably us;ng molar quanti~ies of strong m;nera( acids, such as concentrated hydrochloric ac;d, at temperatures of 50 to 25û, preferably 120 to 170C, to g;ve the ;midazoles. The progress of the react;on can be foLlowed easily by means of chromatography~
In variant b) the compounds of the struc.ure tV) or t~a) are reacted with a 5-fold to 30-fold, advanta~e-ously 10-fold to 20-fold, molar excess of ammon;um acet-ate ;n a 5 to 50-fold, especially 20 to 40-fold, molar amount of glacial acetic acid at temperatures of sa ~o 1~0C, particularly advantageously at the boiling point of the react;on mixture.

which can be prepared readily by known processes from the compounds ~V~ or (Va~ by reaction wi~h ammon;a or ammonium salts are subjected generally without ~he necessity for S them to be ;solated, to an intramolecular condensat;on reaction which is carried out at such a temperature that the product is removed by distillation at the same time.
It is particularly advantayeous to regula$e the pressure in the d;st;llation at such a level that distillation can be carr;ed out at a bath temperature of 130 to 250C.
S;nce products conta;ning ~he radical ~R7 ~bear-;ng in mind the limitation in respect of R7 ind;cated above) are formed ;n all cases, this radical is, if de-sired, substituted or modified in accordance with gener-ally kno~n methods by other radicals out of those men-tioned for X and R1, for example by saponificat;on, trans-esterlf;cation or am;dation. F;nally, ;f appropr;a~e, the poss;bil;ty of forming a salt or complex salt of, or quaterniz;ng, the imidazole rin~ which has a basic re-~0 act;on~ can also be exploited by reacting the product in aknown manner w;th organic or inorclan;c acids, with metals of the groups Ib~ IIb, Ivb or VlII of the periodic system~
for example Cu~ Zn or Sn, or with alkyl or phenacyl halides.
In ~eneral, the desired compounds are ob~a;ned ;n ~S ~ery high purity and in good yielcls by the procedure ac-cording to ~he ;nvention~ This was surprising and could L'7~6 not have been foreseen. It ~ou~dO on the contraryr have been expected that the ester grouping -oR7, which is chemically relatively labile, would be destroyed by saponi-fication or by amide formation~ even before the cycliza-tion reaction, under the conditions of the reaction, suchas, for exarnple~ heating to relatively high temperatures with molar amounts of concentrated hydrochloric acid ;n formanlicle.
Compared with the known method for the preparation of 1-substituted ;midazole-5-carboxyl;c ac;d derivatives~
in ~hich the b;sformyl compounds are cycl;zed to give the 2-mercapto compound by means of potassium th;ocyanate w;th eliminat;on of the N-formyl group~ and the mercapto ~roup is then removed by oxidation in a second react;on stage ~R~ G. Jones, J. Am. Chem. Soc. ~1 (1949), 6~4~, the pro-cedure claimed const;tutes a considerable ;mprovement, since a single-stage reaction takes the pLace of the two-stage reaction, the elimination of two aux;liary groups, ~hich is unsatisf3ctory from an economic point of viewf ~Q is avoided and, last but not least, the inevitable forma-tion of undesirable by-products does not take place.
As already mentioned, the new 1-subst;tuted ;mi-dazole-5-carboxyl;c acid derivatives can be used as b;o-cides. They are d;stinguished by an excellent fungicidal act;on~ Fungo-d pathogens wh;ch have already penetrated into the plant t;ssue can be successfully combated in a curat;ve rnanner. Th;s is part;cularly ;mportant and ad-vantageous ;n the case of fungal cl;seases ~n;ch can no ~onger be combated effect;vely using the otherw;se custorn-~ZQ~7:~6 ary fungicides after infestation has taken place. ThPspectrum of action of the new compounds embraces a large number of different phytopathogenic fungi, such as, for example, Piricular;a oryzae, Plasmopara viticola, various species of rust and above all Venturia inaequalis~ Cerco-spora beticola and powdery mildew fungir in the cultiva-tion of fruit, vegetables, cereals and ornamental plants.
The compounds are also su;table for use in tech-n;cal fields, for example in wood preservatives, as pre-servatives in paints and in coolant-lubricants for metal ~ork;ng or as preservatives in drilling and cutting oils.
The agents can be used as wettable powders, emul-sifiable concentrates, sprayable solutions, dusting agents~
dressing agents~ dispersions, granules or microgranulesr in the customary formulations~
Wettable powders are preparations ~hich can be uniformly dispersed in ~ater and which, as well the act-;ve compound, also contain~ in addition, if ap'propriate, to a d;luent or inert substance, wett;ng agents, for ex ample polyoxethylated alkylphenols, polyoxethylated fatty alcohols, alky'lsulfonates or al~ylphenylsulfonates, and d;spers;ng agents, for example sodium ligninsulfonate, sodium 2,2'-d;naphthylmethane-6~6'-disulfona~e, sod;um dibutylnapthalenesulfonate or the sodium salt of oleyl-~ethyltaur;de. They are prepared ;n a customary manner,for example by gr;nd;ng and mixing the co~ponentsO
~mulsifiable concentrates can be prepared, for .
example~ by d;ssolving the act;ve compound in an inert or~an;c solvent~ for example bu~anol, cyclohexanone, di-71~
methylformamide, xylene or h;gher-bo;l;ng aromatic com-pounds or hydrocarbons, with the addition of one or more emulsifiers. In the case of liquid active compounds, the quota of solvent can also be completely or partially omit-S ted~ The following are examples of emulsif;ers which canbe used: calcium alkylarylsulfonates~ such as Ca dodecyl-benzenesulfonate~ or nonionic emulsi~iers, such as fatty acid esters of polyglycols, alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers~ propylene oxide/ethylene ox;de condensat;on products, fatty alcohol/propylene ox-ide/ethylene oxide condensat;on products~ alkyl polyglycol ethers, fatty acid esters of sorbitan, fatty ac;d esters of polyoxethylenesorbitan or esters of polyoxethylenesor-bitol Dusting agents can be obtained by grinding the act;ve compound w;th f;nely divided solid substances, for example talc, natural clays, such as kaol;n, bentonite or pyrophillite, or diatomaceous earth.
Granules can be prepared e;ther by atomizintJ the active compound onto an adsorptive granulatecl inert mate-r~al or by applying con~entrat;ons of active compound by means of b;nders, for example polyv;nyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or mineral oils~ to ~he surface of carriers, such as sand, kaollnite or a granulated inert material~
Su;table active compounds can also be granulated in the ~manner customary for the preparation of fertil;zer gran ules, ;f des;red as a mixture ~;th fertili2ers~
The concentrat;on of act;ve compound in wettable powders is, for example~ about 10 to 90% by weigh~; the 7~6 remainder up to 100% by weight is somposed of custornary formulation ingredients. Xn the case of emulsifiable con-centra-tes the concentration of ac;ive compound can be about 10 ~o 80% by ~eight~ Formulations in the form o~
dusts contain ;n most cases S to 20~ by weight of active compound, wh;le sprayable solut;o~s contain about 2 to 20X by weight~ In ~he case of granules, the content of active compound depends in some cases on whether the act~
ive compound is in a liquid or solid form and on the gran-ula~ing auxiliaries, fillers and ~he like which are used.
In add;tion, the active compound formulations men-tioned can contain the adhesives, we~ting agents, dispers-ing agents, emulsifiers, penetration agents, solvents, fillers or carriers Hhich are cus~omary in a particular case~
For appl;cation, the concentrates present in a commercially available form are opt;onally diluted in a customary manner, for example in the case of wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, dispersions and, in some cases, also microgranules, by means of water. For-mulations in the form of dusts and ~ranulated Formulations and also sprayable solut;ons are usually not diluted fur-ther ~;th additional inert substances before use.
M;xtures or mixed formùlations containing other active compounds, such as, for example, insecticides~ aca-ricides, herbicides, fertilizers, ~ro~tth regula~ors orfun~;cides, are also possible if appropriate Particu-larly in the case of m;xtures with fungicid~s, it is also possible in sorne cases to achieve synergis-tic increases in activity.
A few examples of formulations may be listed be-l o~ :
A dusting agent is obta;ned by m;x;ng 10 parts by ~/e;ght of active cornpound and 90 parts by we;ght of talc or an inert substance and comminuting the mixture in a beaker mill.
A wettable powder which can be dispersed readily ;n water is ootained by mix;ng 25 parts by weight of act-;ve compound, 64 parts by we;ght of kaolin-contain;n3 quartz as an inert material, 10 parts by weight of pot-assium ligninsulfonate and 1 part by weight of sodium sa~t of oleylmethyltauride as a ~etting and dispersing agent, and ~rindin~ the mixture in a pin mill~
A dispersion concentrate which can be readily dis-persed in water is obtained by mixing 20 parts by weight of act;ve compound ~;th 6 parts by~ eight of an alkylphe-nol polyglycol ether ~Triton X 207~, 3 parts by weight of ;sotridecanol polyglycol eth~r (8 FO) and 71 parts by ~0 we;~ht of a paraff;n;c m;neral o;l tbo;ling range, for exarnple, approx. 255 to above 377~)~ and ~r;nd;ng the m;xture to a fineness less than 5 microns in an attrition ball mill.
` An emulsifiable concentrate is obtained fro~ 15 parts by weight of active compound, 75 parts by weight of cyclohexanone as solvent and 10 parts by weight of ox-ethylated nonylphenol (10 E0) as emulsifier~
Surprisingly, however, the cornpounds according to the invention also possess an excellent herbicidal ac~ion 7~
... . ~ .
7~6 in the pre~emergence and post-emergence techniques against annual and perennial ~eeds. Depending on the dose, this results in ;nhibition of plant gro~h or complete destruc~
tion of the plants~
S The species which can be combated include econo~
mically important grass-like weeds, such as Se~aria (fox-tail), Digitaria (fingergrass), Echinochloa (cockspur srass), Alopecurus tslender foxtail)~ Avena (wild oats)~
Cyperaceae (cyperaceae) and Agropyron (couchgrass) and Sorghum (sorghum). In addition, dicotyledonous ueeds of economic importance, such as Matr;caria ~chamomile), Chrysanthemum (chrysanthemum), ~maranthus ~amaranth), Galium ~cleavers), Abutilon (China jute) and Sida, are also controlled. In add;tion, at herbic;dally effective applicat;on rates the new compounds protect many species of crop plants, so that they can be employed in important major crops, such as, for example, mai~e, rice, cereals~
soya, cotton and rape~ for selectively combatin~ undesir-able plant growth.
Thus it is possible, for example, to combat e~fect;vely by means of the new agents cockspurgrass and amaranth in maize or f;ngergrass, foxtail, China jute and Sida in soya and cotton crops; but it is also possible to use the new compounds successfully for combating important weeds, such as, for example~ cockspurgrass~ ~ild oats, slender foxtail.~ cyperaceae species and cleavers, in cereal crops and in r;ce.
~ epending on the dosage used, typical growth-re~ulating effec~s can also be achieved using the ne~d ~2~
compounds; thus i~ ;s poss;ble, for examp~e, to affect the growth of the plants, and also the const;tuents of the plants. The compounds are therefore suitable as gro~th regula~ors in crops of useful plants~ such as, for example, cereals, maize~ sugar caneD tobacco, rice and sorghum~ On the other hand, it is also possible ~o con-trol plantat;ons~ for instance cultivated lawns~ or plant communities on the edges of paths and roads and also orna-mental plants.
In this respect the compoLInds according to the ;nvent;on can also be advantageously combined with known gro~th regulators, such as, for example, chloroethylphos-phonic ac;d.
When used as fungicides, the application rate of the compounds according to the invention is generally 0.125 to 1.0 kg/hectare. When used as growth regulators, concentrat;ons between 0.15 and 5.0 kg/hectare, prefer ably 0.5 to 2.5 kg/hectare, are suitabLe.
The follo~ing examples serve to illustrate the ;n~ention further:

F;nally, ;f appropr;a~e, the poss;bil;ty of forming a salt or complex salt of, or quaterniz;ng, the imidazole rin~ which has a basic re-~0 act;on~ can also be exploited by reacting the product in aknown manner w;th organic or inorclan;c acids, with metals of the groups Ib~ IIb, Ivb or VlII of the periodic system~
for example Cu~ Zn or Sn, or with alkyl or phenacyl halides.
In ~eneral, the desired compounds are ob~a;ned ;n ~S ~ery high purity and in good yielcls by the procedure ac-cording to ~he ;nvention~ This was surprising and could L'7~6 not have been foreseen. It ~ou~dO on the contraryr have been expected that the ester grouping -oR7, which is chemically relatively labile, would be destroyed by saponi-fication or by amide formation~ even before the cycliza-tion reaction, under the conditions of the reaction, suchas, for exarnple~ heating to relatively high temperatures with molar amounts of concentrated hydrochloric acid ;n formanlicle.
Compared with the known method for the preparation of 1-substituted ;midazole-5-carboxyl;c ac;d derivatives~
in ~hich the b;sformyl compounds are cycl;zed to give the 2-mercapto compound by means of potassium th;ocyanate w;th eliminat;on of the N-formyl group~ and the mercapto ~roup is then removed by oxidation in a second react;on stage ~R~ G. Jones, J. Am. Chem. Soc. ~1 (1949), 6~4~, the pro-cedure claimed const;tutes a considerable ;mprovement, since a single-stage reaction takes the pLace of the two-stage reaction, the elimination of two aux;liary groups, ~hich is unsatisf3ctory from an economic point of viewf ~Q is avoided and, last but not least, the inevitable forma-tion of undesirable by-products does not take place.
As already mentioned, the new 1-subst;tuted ;mi-dazole-5-carboxyl;c acid derivatives can be used as b;o-cides. They are d;stinguished by an excellent fungicidal act;on~ Fungo-d pathogens wh;ch have already penetrated into the plant t;ssue can be successfully combated in a curat;ve rnanner. Th;s is part;cularly ;mportant and ad-vantageous ;n the case of fungal cl;seases ~n;ch can no ~onger be combated effect;vely using the otherw;se custorn-~ZQ~7:~6 ary fungicides after infestation has taken place. ThPspectrum of action of the new compounds embraces a large number of different phytopathogenic fungi, such as, for example, Piricular;a oryzae, Plasmopara viticola, various species of rust and above all Venturia inaequalis~ Cerco-spora beticola and powdery mildew fungir in the cultiva-tion of fruit, vegetables, cereals and ornamental plants.
The compounds are also su;table for use in tech-n;cal fields, for example in wood preservatives, as pre-servatives in paints and in coolant-lubricants for metal ~ork;ng or as preservatives in drilling and cutting oils.
The agents can be used as wettable powders, emul-sifiable concentrates, sprayable solutions, dusting agents~
dressing agents~ dispersions, granules or microgranulesr in the customary formulations~
Wettable powders are preparations ~hich can be uniformly dispersed in ~ater and which, as well the act-;ve compound, also contain~ in addition, if ap'propriate, to a d;luent or inert substance, wett;ng agents, for ex ample polyoxethylated alkylphenols, polyoxethylated fatty alcohols, alky'lsulfonates or al~ylphenylsulfonates, and d;spers;ng agents, for example sodium ligninsulfonate, sodium 2,2'-d;naphthylmethane-6~6'-disulfona~e, sod;um dibutylnapthalenesulfonate or the sodium salt of oleyl-~ethyltaur;de. They are prepared ;n a customary manner,for example by gr;nd;ng and mixing the co~ponentsO
~mulsifiable concentrates can be prepared, for .
example~ by d;ssolving the act;ve compound in an inert or~an;c solvent~ for example bu~anol, cyclohexanone, di-71~
methylformamide, xylene or h;gher-bo;l;ng aromatic com-pounds or hydrocarbons, with the addition of one or more emulsifiers. In the case of liquid active compounds, the quota of solvent can also be completely or partially omit-S ted~ The following are examples of emulsif;ers which canbe used: calcium alkylarylsulfonates~ such as Ca dodecyl-benzenesulfonate~ or nonionic emulsi~iers, such as fatty acid esters of polyglycols, alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers~ propylene oxide/ethylene ox;de condensat;on products, fatty alcohol/propylene ox-ide/ethylene oxide condensat;on products~ alkyl polyglycol ethers, fatty acid esters of sorbitan, fatty ac;d esters of polyoxethylenesorbitan or esters of polyoxethylenesor-bitol Dusting agents can be obtained by grinding the act;ve compound w;th f;nely divided solid substances, for example talc, natural clays, such as kaol;n, bentonite or pyrophillite, or diatomaceous earth.
Granules can be prepared e;ther by atomizintJ the active compound onto an adsorptive granulatecl inert mate-r~al or by applying con~entrat;ons of active compound by means of b;nders, for example polyv;nyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or mineral oils~ to ~he surface of carriers, such as sand, kaollnite or a granulated inert material~
Su;table active compounds can also be granulated in the ~manner customary for the preparation of fertil;zer gran ules, ;f des;red as a mixture ~;th fertili2ers~
The concentrat;on of act;ve compound in wettable powders is, for example~ about 10 to 90% by weigh~; the 7~6 remainder up to 100% by weight is somposed of custornary formulation ingredients. Xn the case of emulsifiable con-centra-tes the concentration of ac;ive compound can be about 10 ~o 80% by ~eight~ Formulations in the form o~
dusts contain ;n most cases S to 20~ by weight of active compound, wh;le sprayable solut;o~s contain about 2 to 20X by weight~ In ~he case of granules, the content of active compound depends in some cases on whether the act~
ive compound is in a liquid or solid form and on the gran-ula~ing auxiliaries, fillers and ~he like which are used.
In add;tion, the active compound formulations men-tioned can contain the adhesives, we~ting agents, dispers-ing agents, emulsifiers, penetration agents, solvents, fillers or carriers Hhich are cus~omary in a particular case~
For appl;cation, the concentrates present in a commercially available form are opt;onally diluted in a customary manner, for example in the case of wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, dispersions and, in some cases, also microgranules, by means of water. For-mulations in the form of dusts and ~ranulated Formulations and also sprayable solut;ons are usually not diluted fur-ther ~;th additional inert substances before use.
M;xtures or mixed formùlations containing other active compounds, such as, for example, insecticides~ aca-ricides, herbicides, fertilizers, ~ro~tth regula~ors orfun~;cides, are also possible if appropriate Particu-larly in the case of m;xtures with fungicid~s, it is also possible in sorne cases to achieve synergis-tic increases in activity.
A few examples of formulations may be listed be-l o~ :
A dusting agent is obta;ned by m;x;ng 10 parts by ~/e;ght of active cornpound and 90 parts by we;ght of talc or an inert substance and comminuting the mixture in a beaker mill.
A wettable powder which can be dispersed readily ;n water is ootained by mix;ng 25 parts by weight of act-;ve compound, 64 parts by we;ght of kaolin-contain;n3 quartz as an inert material, 10 parts by weight of pot-assium ligninsulfonate and 1 part by weight of sodium sa~t of oleylmethyltauride as a ~etting and dispersing agent, and ~rindin~ the mixture in a pin mill~
A dispersion concentrate which can be readily dis-persed in water is obtained by mixing 20 parts by weight of act;ve compound ~;th 6 parts by~ eight of an alkylphe-nol polyglycol ether ~Triton X 207~, 3 parts by weight of ;sotridecanol polyglycol eth~r (8 FO) and 71 parts by ~0 we;~ht of a paraff;n;c m;neral o;l tbo;ling range, for exarnple, approx. 255 to above 377~)~ and ~r;nd;ng the m;xture to a fineness less than 5 microns in an attrition ball mill.
` An emulsifiable concentrate is obtained fro~ 15 parts by weight of active compound, 75 parts by weight of cyclohexanone as solvent and 10 parts by weight of ox-ethylated nonylphenol (10 E0) as emulsifier~
Surprisingly, however, the cornpounds according to the invention also possess an excellent herbicidal ac~ion 7~
... . ~ .
7~6 in the pre~emergence and post-emergence techniques against annual and perennial ~eeds. Depending on the dose, this results in ;nhibition of plant gro~h or complete destruc~
tion of the plants~
S The species which can be combated include econo~
mically important grass-like weeds, such as Se~aria (fox-tail), Digitaria (fingergrass), Echinochloa (cockspur srass), Alopecurus tslender foxtail)~ Avena (wild oats)~
Cyperaceae (cyperaceae) and Agropyron (couchgrass) and Sorghum (sorghum). In addition, dicotyledonous ueeds of economic importance, such as Matr;caria ~chamomile), Chrysanthemum (chrysanthemum), ~maranthus ~amaranth), Galium ~cleavers), Abutilon (China jute) and Sida, are also controlled. In add;tion, at herbic;dally effective applicat;on rates the new compounds protect many species of crop plants, so that they can be employed in important major crops, such as, for example, mai~e, rice, cereals~
soya, cotton and rape~ for selectively combatin~ undesir-able plant growth.
Thus it is possible, for example, to combat e~fect;vely by means of the new agents cockspurgrass and amaranth in maize or f;ngergrass, foxtail, China jute and Sida in soya and cotton crops; but it is also possible to use the new compounds successfully for combating important weeds, such as, for example~ cockspurgrass~ ~ild oats, slender foxtail.~ cyperaceae species and cleavers, in cereal crops and in r;ce.
~ epending on the dosage used, typical growth-re~ulating effec~s can also be achieved using the ne~d ~2~
compounds; thus i~ ;s poss;ble, for examp~e, to affect the growth of the plants, and also the const;tuents of the plants. The compounds are therefore suitable as gro~th regula~ors in crops of useful plants~ such as, for example, cereals, maize~ sugar caneD tobacco, rice and sorghum~ On the other hand, it is also possible ~o con-trol plantat;ons~ for instance cultivated lawns~ or plant communities on the edges of paths and roads and also orna-mental plants.
In this respect the compoLInds according to the ;nvent;on can also be advantageously combined with known gro~th regulators, such as, for example, chloroethylphos-phonic ac;d.
When used as fungicides, the application rate of the compounds according to the invention is generally 0.125 to 1.0 kg/hectare. When used as growth regulators, concentrat;ons between 0.15 and 5.0 kg/hectare, prefer ably 0.5 to 2.5 kg/hectare, are suitabLe.
