- 2 -or mono- or poly-substituted by haLogen, C1-C4-alkyl, C1-C4-alkoxy, C1-C4-haloalkYl~ nitro and/or cyano; including the acid add;tion salts, quaternary azolium salts and metal complexes.
The term alkyl by itself or as a constituent of ano-ther substituent is to be understood as meaning, for example, one of the following groups, depending on the number of car-bon atoms stated: methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl and the like and their isomers, for example isopropyl, isobutyl, tert.-butyl, isopentyl and the like. Haloalkyl is a monohalogenated to perhalogenated alkyl substituent, for example CHCl2~ CHF2~ C~2Cl~ CCl3, CH2F, CH2CH2Cl CH2Br and the like, in particular CF3. Here and in the fol-lowing text, halogen is to be understood as meaning fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, preferably fluorine, chlorine or bromine. Alkenyl is, for example, prop-1-enyl, allyl, but-1-enyl, but-2-enyl or but-3-enyl. Naphthyl is I- or I-naphthyl.
The present invention thus relates to the free com-pounds of the formula I and acid addition salts, quaternaryazolium salts and metal complexes thereof. The free com-pounds, in particular the 1H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives, are preferred in the context of formula I.
Examples of salt-forming acids are inorganic acids, such as hydrogen halide acids, such as hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid or hydriodic acid, as well as sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, phosphorous acid and nitric acid, and organic acids, such as acetic acid, tri-fluoroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid, propionic acid, for-mic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid or methanesulfonic acid.
Metal complexes of the formula I consist of the ba-sic organic molecule and an inorganic or organic metal salt, for example the halides, nitrates, sulfates, phosphates, ace-tates, trifluoroacetates, trichloroacetates, propionates,tartrates, sulfonates, salicylates, benzoates and the like of the elements of the third and fourth main group, such as ~209~52 alum;nium, t;n or lead, and of the f;rst to eighth sub-group, such as chrom;um, manganese, ;ron, cobalt, nickel, zirconium, copper, zinc, s;~ver, mercury and the like. The sub-~roup elements of the 4th period are preferred. The metals can be in the various valences with which they are associated.
The metal complexes of the formula I can be mononuclear or polynuclear, i.e. they can contain one or more organic mole-cule components as ligands. Complexes with the metals copper, zinc, manganese, tin and zirconium are preferred.
The compounds of the formula I are oils, resins or, chiefly solids, which are stable at room temperature and are distinguished by very useful m;crobic;dal properties. They can be used prevent;vely and curat;vely in the agricultural sector or related fields for controlling micro-organisms which damage plants, the triazolylmethyl derivatives in the context of the formula I being preferred. The active substances of the formula I according to the invention are distinguished by a very good phytofung;cidal action and problem-free application when used ;n low concentrations. Moreover, they also have a growth-regulating action, in particular a growth-inhibiting action, especially on tropical cover crops.
The following groups of substances are preferred, be-cause of their marked microbicidal action, in particular their phytofungicida~ action: compounds of the formula I
in which Az is 1H-1,2,4-triazole or 1H-im;dazole; Ar ;s an unsubstituted or substituted aromatic radical from the se-ries comprising phenyl, biphenyl and phenoxyphenyl, R1 is hydrogen; R2 is hydrogen, fluorine or c1-c3-alkyl; and R3 is hydrogen, fluorine, C1-C4-alkyl, C1-C3-haloalkyl, C1-C3-alkoxy, C1-C3-alkylthio, phenyl, phenyloxy ox phenylthio, each phenyl moiety being unsubstituted or substituted by fluorine, chlorine, bromine, methyl, me-thoxy, CF3, N02 and/or cyano; including the acid addition salts, quaternary azolium salts and metal complexes.

The compounds of the formula I are prepared by a pro-cess which comprises first reacting an oxirane of the for-mula II
Ar-c~cH2 (II) F
~2Q9~52 with an azole of the formula III
M--Az (III) to give a compound of the formula Ia OH
Ar-C-C~ -Az (Ia) F
and, if required, converting the alcohol Ia into an ether of the formula I in the conventional manner, or example by re-action with a compound of the formula IV
R1 W (IV) in which formulae Ia, II, III and IV, the substituents R1, R2, R3, Ar and Az are as defined under formula I, M is hydrogen or, preferably, a metal atom, in particular an alkali metal atom, such as Li, Na or K, and W is OH or a con-ventional weaving group. Conventional leaving groups are known from the literature.
If appropriate, the reaction of II with III to give Ia is carried out in the presence of condensing agents or acid-binding agents. Suitable agents are organic and inor-ganic bases, for example tertiary amines, such as trialkyl-amines (trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine and the like), pyridine and pyridine bases (4-dimethylaminopyri-dine, 4-pyrrolidylaminopyridine and the like), oxides, hyd-rides and hydroxides, carbonates and bicarbonates of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals (CaO, CaO, NaOH, KOH, NaH, Ca~OH)2, KHC03, NaHC03, Ca(HC03)2, K2C03, and Na2C03) and alkali metal acetates, such as CH3COONa or CH3COOK. Moreover, alkali metal alcoholates, such as C2H50Na, C3H7-nONa and the like, are also suitable.
In some cases, it may be advantageous if the free azole III
(M = hydrogen) is first converted into the corresponding salt, for exampLe in situ with an alcoholate, and then to react the salt with the oxirane of the formula II. In the preparation of the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, 1,3,4-triazolyl isomers are generally also formed in a parallel reaction, and these :
can be separated from one another in a conventional manner, for example with different solvents.
The reaction (II with III to give Ia) is preferably carried out in an organic solvent which is relatively polar but inert ;n the react;on, for example N,N-d;methylformam;de, N,N-dimethylacetam;de, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, benzo-nitrile and the like. Such solvents can be used in combina-tion with other solvents which are inert in the reaction, for example benzene, toluene, xylene, hexane, petroieum ether, chlorobenzene, nitrobenzene and the like. The reac-tion temperatures are in a temperature range from 0 to 150C, preferably 20 to 100C.
This reaction (II with III to give Ia) can further-more be carried out analogously to reactions which are al-ready known for other oxiranes with azoles (cf. Berman Offen-legungsschr;ft 2,912,288).
In the part react;ons mentioned, the intermed;ates can be isolated from the reaction medium and, if desired, purified by one of the generally convent;onal methods, for example by washing, digestion, extraction, crystallisation, chromatography, distillation and the like, before the further reaction.
In cases where W in formula IV is a conventional leaving group, the further reaction of Ia to give I is car-ried out in the absence or, preferably, in the presence of asolvent which is inert in the reaction.
Examples of suitable solvents are the following:
N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetam;de, hexamethyl-phosphoric acid triamide, dimethylsulfoxide, Z-methyl-2-pen-tanone and the like. Mixtures of these solvents with oneanother or with other conventional inert organic solvents, for example with aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, the xylenes and the like, can also be used. In some cases it may prove advantageous to carry out the reaction in the presence of a base, for example an alkali metal hydride, hydroxide or carbonate, in order to accelerate the rate of reaction. However, it may also be advantageous first to , .
convert the alcohol of the formula Ia (R1 = OH) into a sui-table metal salt in a manner which is known per se, for ex-ample by reaction with a strong base.
Examples of suitable strong bases are alkali metal hydrides and alkaline earth metal hydrides (NaH, KH, CaH2 and the like) and alkali metal-organic compounds, for ex-ample butyl-lithium or an alkali metal tert.-butoxide, and alkali metal hydroxides, such as NaOH or KOH, can moreover also be used if the reaction is carr;ed out ;n an aqueous two-phase system in the presence of a phase transfer cata-cyst.
However, it is also possible first to convert the alcohol of the formula Ia into an alkali metal alcoholate ;n a convent;onal manner before the further reaction, and then to react the alcoholate with a compound of the formula IV (;n wh;ch W ;s a Leaving group), the reaction advanta-geously being carried out in the presence of a crown ether.
If M = K, 18-crown-6, in particular, is present; and if M =
Na, 15-crown-5, in particular, is present. The reaction is advantageously carried out in a medium which is inert in the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents are ethers and ether-like compounds, for example di-lower alkyl ethers (di-ethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tert.-butyl methyl ether and the like), tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, and aromatic hydro-carbons, such as benzene, toluene or the xylenes.
The following solvents are examples of the organicwater-immiscible phase: aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, petroleum ether, lig-roin, benzene, toluene, the xylenes and the like, halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, ethylene dichloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, tetrachloroethylene and the like, or aliphatic ethers, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, t-butyl methyl ether and the like. Examples of suitable phase transfer catalysts are: tetraalkylammonium hal;des, bisulfates or hydroxides, such as tetrabutylammonium chloride, bromide or iodide; tri-ethylbenzylammonium chloride or bromide; tetrapropylammonium 1209~52 chloride, bromide or iodide; and the like. Possible phase transfer catalysts include phosphonium salts. The reaction temperatures are ;n general between 30 and 13ûC, or at the bo;l;ng po;nt of the solvent or solvent mixture.
S In cases where W ;n formula IV ;s a hydroxyl group, a condensation reaction ;s advantageously carried out. The two reactants are refluxed in a suitable solvent.
In principle, any solvent which is inert towards the reactants and, advantageously, forms an azeotrope with water 1û can be used here. Examples of suitable solvents here are aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and the xylenes, or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chLoride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-d;chloro-ethane, tetra-chloroethylene and chlorobenzene, as well as ether-L;ke compounds, such as tert.-butyl methyl ether, dioxane and the Like. In some cases, the compound of the formula III itself can be used as the solvent. This condensat;on reaction is advantageously carried out in the presence of a strong acid, for example paratoluenesulfonic acid, at the boiling point of the azeotropic mixture.
To prepare the ethers of the formuLa I, it is also possible first to replace the free OH group in the compounds of the formula Ia by one of the above conventional leaving groups W and then to react the product with a compound of the formula IV (where W = OH).
The starting substances of the formula III are gene-raLly known, or they can be prepared by methods which are known per se.
The oxiranes of the formula II are novel, ar,d are intermediates which have been developed particularly for the preparation of the useful active substances of the formula I.
Because of their structural nature, they can be converted into the compounds of the formula Ia in a simple manner, and, moreover, some of the compounds of the formula II have a fun-gicidal activity towards harmful fungi from the families ofAscomycetes, Basidiomycetes or Fungi ;mperfecti.
Epox;des of the formula II can be prepared from ketones of the formula V
Ar-C-C-F (V) Il I
o R3 in a manner which is known per se by reaction with dimethyl-sulfonium methylide or dimethyloxosulfonium methylide`(Corey and Chaykovsky, JACS, 1962, 84, 3782).
The ketones of the formula V are accessible by me-thods which are known per se from the literature of J. Le-roy, J. Org. Chem. 46, 206 (1981) or Houben-Weyl, volume V/3, page 211), from the corresponding known a-bromo-ketones by conventional replacement of the bromine by fluorine, or they can also be prepared by acylation of the aromatic on which they are based with fluorinated carboxylic acid deri-vatives, for example by a Friedel-Crafts reaction.
In principle, unless expressly specified in a parti-cular case, one or more solvents or diluents which are inertin the reaction can be present in the preparation of all the starting substances, intermediates and end products mentioned here. Examples of suitable solvents or diluents are alipha-tic and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, the xylenes and petroleum ether; halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzene, methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and tetrachloroethylene;
ethers and ether-like compounds, such as dialkyl ethers (di-ethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tert.-butyl methyl ether and the like), anisole, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran; nitriles, such as acetonitrile and propionitrile; N,N-dialkylated amides, such as dimethylformamide; dimethylsulfoxide; ke-tones, such as acetone, diethyl ketone and methyl ethyl ke-tone, and mixtures of these solvents with one another. In some cases, it may also be advantageous to carry out the re-action or part steps of a reaction under a protective gas at-mosphere and/or in absolute solvents. Suitable protective gases are inert gases, such as nitrogen, helium, argon or, in certain cases, also carbon dioxide.
^" 1209152 The compounds of the formula I
ORl R2 l*
Az--CH2-- f C--F (I) Ar R3 always have an asymmetric C atom C* in the position adjacent to the substituents Ar and OR1 and can therefore exist in two enantiomeric forms. In general, a mixture of the two enantiomers is formed in the preparation of these substances, and this can be split into the pure optical antipodes in a conventional manner, for example by fractional crystallisa-tion of salts with strong optically active acids. The enan-tiomers can have d;fferent biological actions; thus, forexample, the fungicidal action can be in the foreground in one form and the pLant growth-regulating action can be in the foreground in the other form. A gradual difference in ac-tivity may also occur in the same action spectrum. If the radicals R2 and R3 are different, the molecule contains a further centre of asymmetry (*), which leads to the exis-tence of diastereomeric mixtures (threo- and erythro-forms), which can be separated by means of physical methods.
The present invention relates to all the pure enan-tiomers and diastereomers and mixtures thereof with one ano-ther.
The preparation process described, including all the part steps' is an important component of the present inven-tion.
It has been found, surprisingly, that compounds of the formula I have a microbicidal spectrum against phyto-pathogenic fungi and bacteria which is very favourable for practical requirements. They have very advantageous cura-tive, systemic and, in particular, preventive properties and can be used for protecting numerous crop plants. The micro-organisms which occur on plants or parts of plants (fruit, blossom, foliage, stems, tubers and roots) of various useful crops can be checked or destroyed with the active substances I, - ~Z09152 of the formula I, the addit;onal future growth of parts of plants also remaining protected from such m;croorgan;sms.
The active substances of the formula I are effec~;ve against phytopathogenic fungi belonging to the following classes: Fungi imperfecti (for example, sOtrytiS, Helmin-thosporium, Fusarium, Septoria, Cercospora and Alternaria);
and Basidiomycetes (for example the genera Hemileia, Rhizoco-tonia and Puccinia); and they are particularly active against the class of Ascomycetes for example Venturia, Podosphaera, 1û Erysiphe, Mon;l;nia and Uncinula). Moreover, the compounds of the formula I have a systemic action. They can further-more be used as dressings for the treatment of seed (fru;t, tubers and seed) and plant seedlings, for protection from fungal infections and against phytopathogenic fungi which occur in the soil.
The invention thus also relates to microbicidal com-positions and to the use of the compounds of the formula I
for the control of phytopathogenic microorganisms, in parti-cular fung; which are harmful to plants, and for preventive prophylaxis of an attack on plants.
The present invention furthermore also includes the preparation of agrochemical compositions which comprises ;ntimate m;x;ng of the active substance with one or more substances or groups of substances described in this Appli-cation. The present invention also includes a method oftreating plants which comprises application of the compounds of the formula I or of the novel compositions.
The following plant species are examples of target crops in the context of this invention for the fields of in-dication disclosed herein: cereals: (wheat, barley, rye,oats, rice, sorghum and related species); beet (sugar-beet and fodder beet); pomaceous fruit, stone fruit and berries:
(apple, pear, plum, peach, almond, cherry, strawberry, rasp-berry and blackberry); pulse: (bean, lentil, pea, soya bean);
oil crops: (rape, mustard, poppy, olive, sunflower, coconut, castor, cacao and groundnut); cucumber crops: (pumpkin, cu-cumber, melon); fibre crops: (cotton, flax, hemp and jute);
1209~S2 c;trus fru;ts: (orange? lemon, grapefru;t and mandar;n)~
vegetable variet;es: (spinach, lettuce, asparagus, cabbage var;eties, carrot, onion, tomato, potato and paprika); laurel crops: (avocado, cinnamon and camphor); or pLants such as maize, tobacco, nut, coffee, sugar cane, tea, vine, hop and banana and natural rubber crops, and ornamental plants (com-posites).
Active substances of the formula I are usually em-ployed in the form of formulations and can be applied to the area or plant to be treated at the same time as or after other active substances. These other active substances can be fertilisers, carriers of trace eLements or other products which influence plant growth. They can also be, however, selective herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides or mixtures of several of these products, if necessary together with other carriers, surfac-tants or other application-promoting adjuvants conventionally used in the art of formulation.
Suitable carriers and adjuvants can be solid or li-quid and correspond to the substances appropriate in the artof formulation, for example natural or regenerated mine-ral substances, solvents, dispersants, wetting agents, tacki-fiers, thickeners, binders or fertil;sers.
A preferred method of application of an active sub-stance of the formula I or of an agrochemical compositioncontaining at least one of these active substances is appl;-cation to the foliage leaf application). The number of applications and the amount applied depend on the threat of attack by the corresponding pathogen species of fungus).
However, the active substances of the formula I can also en-ter the plants through the root via the soil systemic action) by a method in which the location of the plant is soaked with a liquid formulation or the substances are incorporated into the soil in solid form, for example in the form of granules soil application). The compounds of the formula I can, how-ever, also be applied to seed coating), by a method in which the seed is either soaked in a liquid formulation of the active substance or coated with a soLid formulation. More-over, other types of application are possible in particular cases, thus, for example, controlled treatment of the plant stems or the buds.
The compounds of the formula I are used here in un-modified form or, preferably, together with the assistants conventionally used in the art of formulation, and are thus processed in a known manner to, for example, emulsion concentrates, brushable pastes, directly sprayable or dilu-table solutions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts or granules, by encapsulation in, for example, polymeric substances. The methods of application, such as spraying, misting, dusting, scattering, brushing or watering, ;s chosen according to the intended aims and the given cir-cumstances, as is the type of composition. Favourable appli-cation amounts are generally 50 9 to 5 kg of active substance (AS) per hectare; preferably 100 9 to 2 kg of AS/hectare, and in particular 200 9 to 600 9 of AS/hectare.
The formulations, i.e. the compositions, preparations or mixtures, containing the active substance of the formula I and, if appropriate, a solid or liquid adjuvant are pre-pared in a known manner, for example by intimate mixing and/
or grinding of the active substances with extenders, for ex-ample with solvents, solid carriers and, if necessary, sur-face-active compounds (surfactants).
Suitable solvents are: aromatic hydrocarbons, pre-ferably C8 to C12 fractions, for example xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalic acid esters, such as dibutyl phthalate or dioctyl phthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols and ethers and esters thereof, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monomethyl or monoethyl ether, ketones, such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylsulfoxide or dimethylformamide, and, where relevant, epoxidised vegetable oils, such as epoxidised coconut oil or soya bean oil; or water.
The solid carriers used, for example for dust and - 1209~52 dispersible powders, are as a rule ground natural minerals, such as calcite, talc, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite.
Highly disperse silica or highly disperse absorbent polymers may also be added to improve the physical properties. Sui-table granular, adsorptive carriers for granules are poroustypes, for example pumice, broken brick, sepiolite or ben-tonite, and suitable non-adsorptive carriers are, for example, calcite or sand. A large number of pre-granulated materials of inorganic or organic nature, such as, in particular, dolo-mite or comminuted plant residues, can moreover be used.Further particularly advantageous adjuvants which promote application and can lead to a large reduction in the amount applied are natural tanimal or vegetable) or synthetic phosphoLipids of the cephal;n and lecithin series, for example phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidyl-choline, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidyl-glycerol, lysolecithin, plasmalogens or cardiolipin, which can be isolated, for example, from animal or vegetable cells, in particular from the bra;n, heart or liver or from egg yolks or soya bean. Examples of commercial mixtures which can be used are phosphatidylcholine mixtures. Examples of synthetic phospholipids are dioctanoylphosphatidylcholine and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine.
Suitable surface-active compounds, depending on the nature of the active substance of the formula I to be formu-lated, are non-ionic, cationic and/or anionic surfactants with good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties.
Surfactants are also to be understood as meaning surfactant mixtures.
Suitable anionic surfactants can be either so-called water-soluble soaps or water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds.
Soaps are the alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C1û-C22), for example the Na or K salts of oleic acid or stearic acid, or of naturally occurring fatty acid mixtures, which can be obtained, for example, from coconut ~209152 oiL or taLlow oil. The fatty acid methyL-laurin saLts are aLso suitable.
However, so-called synthetic surfactants, in parti-cular fatty suLfonates, fatty sulfates, sulfonated benzimi-dazole der;vatives or alkylsulfonates, are more frequentlyused.
The fatty suLfonates or suLfates are as a rule in the form of alkaLi metal, alkal;ne earth metal or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium saLts and contain an aLkyl radical having 8 to 22 C atoms, alkyL aLso incLuding the aLkyl moiety of acyL radicaLs, for exampLe the Na or Ca saLt of LigninsuL-fonic acid, dodecyLsuLfuric acid ester or a fatty aLcohoL
sulfate mixture prepared from naturally occurring fatty acids.
These compounds also include the salts of sulfuric acid es-ters and sulfonic acids of fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide ad-ducts. The sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives preferably contain 2-suLfonic acid groups and a fatty acid radicaL hav;ng 8-22 C atoms. Examples of alkyLarylsulfonates are the Na, Ca or tr;ethanoLamine saLts of dodecyLbenzenesuLfonic ac;d, d;butyLnaphthaLenesuLfonic ac;d or a naphthaLenesuLfonic acid/formaLdehyde condensate.
Corresponding phosphates, for exampLe saLts of the phosphoric acid ester of a p-nonyLphenol-(4-14)-ethyLene oxide adduct, are aLso suitable.
Part;cularly su;table non-ion;c surfactants are poly-glycol ether derivatives of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic al-cohoLs, saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and aLkyLphenols, wh;ch may conta;n 3 to 30 gLycol ether groups and 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon radicaL and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the aLkyL radicaL of the aLkyLphenoLs.
Other suitable non-ionic surfactants are the water-soluble adducts, conta;ning 20 to 250 ethylene glycol ether groups and 10 to 100 propylene glycol ether groups, of poly-ethylene oxide and polypropylene gLycol, ethylenediaminopoLy-propylene glycol and an alkylpolypropylene gLycol having 1to 10 carbon atoms in the aLkyl chain. The compounds men-tioned usuaLLy conta;n 1 to 5 ethyLene gLycoL un;ts per , .
propylene glycol unit.
Examples of non-ionic surfactants are nonylphenolpoly-ethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene polyethylene ox;de adducts, tributylphenoxypolyethylene-ethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxypolyethoxy-ethanol.
Fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan, such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate, are also suitable.
The cationic surfactants are, in particular, quater-nary ammonium salts which contain at least one alkyl radicalhaving 8 to 22 C atoms as N-substituent and lower alkyl or benzyl radicals, which may or may not be halogenated, or lower hydroxyalkyl radicals, as further substituents. The salts are preferably in the form of halides, methylsulfates or ethylsulfates, and are, for example, stearyltrimethyl-ammonium chloride or benzyldi(2-chloroethyl)ethylammonium bromide.
The surfactants conventionally used in the art of formulation are descr;bed, inter alia, in the following publications:
"Mc Cutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual"
BC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood New Jersey, 1981 and Helmut Stache "Tensid-Taschenbuch" ("Surfactant Handbook"), Carl Hauser-Verlag Munich/Vienna 1981.
The agrochemical formuLations as a rule contain 0.1 to 99Z, in particular 0.1 to 95%, of active substance of the formula I, 99.9 to 1X, in particular 99.8 to 5%, of a solid or liquid adjuvant and 0 to 25%, in particular 0.1 to 25X, of a surfactant.
Whilst concentrated compositions are rather prefer-red as commercial products, the final user as a rule employs dilute compositions.
The compositions can also contain other adjuvants, such as stabilisers, antifoams, viscosity regulators, binders, tackifiers and fertilisers, or other active substances, in order to achieve speciaL effects.
Such agrochemical compositions are a component of the present invention.

Biological examples:
Example B1: Action against Puccinia graminis on wheat a) Residual-protective action 6 days after sowing, wheat plants were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.02% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 24 hours, the treated plants were infected with a uredospore suspension of the fungus. After incubation at 95-100X relative atmos-1209~5Z
-- 32 --pheric humidlty and about 20C for 48 hours, the infected plants were placed ;n a greenhouse at about 22C. The development of rust pustules was evaluated 12 days after the ;nfect;on.
5 b) Systemic act;on S days after sow;ng, wheat plants were watered w;th a spray l;quor (0.006% of act;ve substance, based on the volume of soil) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 48 hours, the treated plants were in'ected 1û with a uredospore suspension of the fungus. After incuba-t;on at 95-100% relative atmospheric hum;dity at about 20C
for 48 hours, the infected plants were placed ;n a green-house at about 22C. The development of rust pustules was evaluated 12 days after the ;nfect;on.
Compounds from the table had a very good action aga;nst Puccinia fungi. Untreated but infected control plants displayed a Pucc;nia attack of 100%. Inter alia, the compounds 1 to 10, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 25, 33 - 35, 45 - 51 and 53 - 57 inhibited the Puccinia attack to 0 to 5X.
20 Example G2: Action against Cercospora arachidicola on ground-nut plants Residual-protective act;on Groundnut plants 10 - 15 cm h;gh were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.006% of active substance) prepared from 25 a wettable powder of the active substance, and 48 hours later were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. The infected plants were incubated at about 21C at a high atmospheric humidity for 72 hours and were then placed in a greenhouse until the typical leaf spots appeared. The fun-30 gicidal action was evaluated, on the basis of the number andsize of the spots which had appeared, 12 days after the in-fection.
In comparison with untreated but infected control plants tnumber and size of spots = 100%), groundnut plants 35 which had been treated with active substances from the table showed a greatly reduced Cercospora attack. Thus, compounds 1 to 9, 14, 19, 20, 25, 33, 38, 45-51 and 54-58 almost lZ09152 completely prevented the occurrence of spots in ihe above experiments (0-10%).
Example B3: Action against Erysiphe graminis on barley a) Residual-protective action Barley plants about 8 cm high were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.002X of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 3-4 hours, the treated plants were dusted with conidia of the fungus.
The ;nfected barley plants were placed ;n a greenhouse at about 22C and the fungal attack was evaluated after 10 days.
b) Systemic action Barley plants about 8 cm high were watered with a spray liquor ~0.006X of active substance, based on the volume of soil) prepared from a wettable powder of the active sub-stance. Care was thereby taken that the spray liquor did not come ;nto contact with the above-ground parts of the plants. After 48 hours, the treated plants were dusted w;th conidia of the fungus. The infected barley plants were placed in a greenhouse at about 22C and the fungal attack was evaluated after 10 days.
Compounds of the formula showed a good action against Erysiphe fung;. Untreated but infected control plants displayed an Erysiphe attack of 1ûOX. Amongst other compounds from the table, compounds 1 to 10, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 25, 33, 35, 38, 45 - 51 and 53 - 58 inhibited the fungal attack on barley to 0 to 5%, and, ;n particular, compound No. 2 effected complete reduction of attack.
Example B4: Residual-protective action against Venturia inaequalis on apple shoots Apple seedlings with fresh shoots 10 - 20 cm long were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.006% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance.
After 24 hours, the treated plants were infected with a con;d;a suspens;on of the fungus. The plants were then incu-bated at 90 - 100% relative atmospheric humidity for 5 days and placed in a greenhouse at 20-24C for a further 10 days.
The scab attack was evaluated 15 days after the infection.
Compounds 1 to 6, 8, 9, 14, 17, 19, 20, 33, 45, 47, 49 - 51 and 53 - 57 inh;b;ted the d;sease ;nfestat;on to less than 10~. In contrast, untreated but ;nfected control shoots showed 100% attack.
Example B5: Action against Botrytis cinerea on beans Residual-protective action Bean plants about 10 cm high were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.02% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 48 hours, the treated plants were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. After incubation of the infected plants at 95-100% relat;ve atmospheric humidity at 21C for 3 days, the fungal attack was evaluated. The compounds from the table in many cases very greatly inhibited the fungal infec-tion. At a concentration of 0.02X, compounds 1 to 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 20, 25, 33, 35, 45, 47, 49, 50, 51 and 53-57, for example, proved to be completely effective. The disease in-festation was O to 8%.
The Botrytis attack of untreated but infected bean plants was 100%.
ExampLe B6: Action against Piricularia oryzae on rice plants Residual-protective action After being grown for two weeks, rice plants were sprayed with a spray liquor ~0.002% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance.
After 48 hours, the treated plants were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. After incubation at 95-100% relative atmospheric humidity at 24C for 5 days, the fungal attack was evaluated.
Rice plants which had been treated with a spray li-quor containing one of the compounds from Table 1, such as, for example, No. 14 or 33, as the active substance, showed a fungal attack of less than 10X, in comparison with the untreated control plants (lOOX attack).
The compounds of the formula I are prepared by a pro-cess which comprises first reacting an oxirane of the for-mula II
Ar-c~cH2 (II) F
~2Q9~52 with an azole of the formula III
M--Az (III) to give a compound of the formula Ia OH
Ar-C-C~ -Az (Ia) F
and, if required, converting the alcohol Ia into an ether of the formula I in the conventional manner, or example by re-action with a compound of the formula IV
R1 W (IV) in which formulae Ia, II, III and IV, the substituents R1, R2, R3, Ar and Az are as defined under formula I, M is hydrogen or, preferably, a metal atom, in particular an alkali metal atom, such as Li, Na or K, and W is OH or a con-ventional weaving group. Conventional leaving groups are known from the literature.
If appropriate, the reaction of II with III to give Ia is carried out in the presence of condensing agents or acid-binding agents. Suitable agents are organic and inor-ganic bases, for example tertiary amines, such as trialkyl-amines (trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine and the like), pyridine and pyridine bases (4-dimethylaminopyri-dine, 4-pyrrolidylaminopyridine and the like), oxides, hyd-rides and hydroxides, carbonates and bicarbonates of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals (CaO, CaO, NaOH, KOH, NaH, Ca~OH)2, KHC03, NaHC03, Ca(HC03)2, K2C03, and Na2C03) and alkali metal acetates, such as CH3COONa or CH3COOK. Moreover, alkali metal alcoholates, such as C2H50Na, C3H7-nONa and the like, are also suitable.
In some cases, it may be advantageous if the free azole III
(M = hydrogen) is first converted into the corresponding salt, for exampLe in situ with an alcoholate, and then to react the salt with the oxirane of the formula II. In the preparation of the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, 1,3,4-triazolyl isomers are generally also formed in a parallel reaction, and these :
can be separated from one another in a conventional manner, for example with different solvents.
The reaction (II with III to give Ia) is preferably carried out in an organic solvent which is relatively polar but inert ;n the react;on, for example N,N-d;methylformam;de, N,N-dimethylacetam;de, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, benzo-nitrile and the like. Such solvents can be used in combina-tion with other solvents which are inert in the reaction, for example benzene, toluene, xylene, hexane, petroieum ether, chlorobenzene, nitrobenzene and the like. The reac-tion temperatures are in a temperature range from 0 to 150C, preferably 20 to 100C.
This reaction (II with III to give Ia) can further-more be carried out analogously to reactions which are al-ready known for other oxiranes with azoles (cf. Berman Offen-legungsschr;ft 2,912,288).
In the part react;ons mentioned, the intermed;ates can be isolated from the reaction medium and, if desired, purified by one of the generally convent;onal methods, for example by washing, digestion, extraction, crystallisation, chromatography, distillation and the like, before the further reaction.
In cases where W in formula IV is a conventional leaving group, the further reaction of Ia to give I is car-ried out in the absence or, preferably, in the presence of asolvent which is inert in the reaction.
Examples of suitable solvents are the following:
N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetam;de, hexamethyl-phosphoric acid triamide, dimethylsulfoxide, Z-methyl-2-pen-tanone and the like. Mixtures of these solvents with oneanother or with other conventional inert organic solvents, for example with aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, the xylenes and the like, can also be used. In some cases it may prove advantageous to carry out the reaction in the presence of a base, for example an alkali metal hydride, hydroxide or carbonate, in order to accelerate the rate of reaction. However, it may also be advantageous first to , .
convert the alcohol of the formula Ia (R1 = OH) into a sui-table metal salt in a manner which is known per se, for ex-ample by reaction with a strong base.
Examples of suitable strong bases are alkali metal hydrides and alkaline earth metal hydrides (NaH, KH, CaH2 and the like) and alkali metal-organic compounds, for ex-ample butyl-lithium or an alkali metal tert.-butoxide, and alkali metal hydroxides, such as NaOH or KOH, can moreover also be used if the reaction is carr;ed out ;n an aqueous two-phase system in the presence of a phase transfer cata-cyst.
However, it is also possible first to convert the alcohol of the formula Ia into an alkali metal alcoholate ;n a convent;onal manner before the further reaction, and then to react the alcoholate with a compound of the formula IV (;n wh;ch W ;s a Leaving group), the reaction advanta-geously being carried out in the presence of a crown ether.
If M = K, 18-crown-6, in particular, is present; and if M =
Na, 15-crown-5, in particular, is present. The reaction is advantageously carried out in a medium which is inert in the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents are ethers and ether-like compounds, for example di-lower alkyl ethers (di-ethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tert.-butyl methyl ether and the like), tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, and aromatic hydro-carbons, such as benzene, toluene or the xylenes.
The following solvents are examples of the organicwater-immiscible phase: aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as pentane, hexane, cyclohexane, petroleum ether, lig-roin, benzene, toluene, the xylenes and the like, halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, ethylene dichloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, tetrachloroethylene and the like, or aliphatic ethers, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, t-butyl methyl ether and the like. Examples of suitable phase transfer catalysts are: tetraalkylammonium hal;des, bisulfates or hydroxides, such as tetrabutylammonium chloride, bromide or iodide; tri-ethylbenzylammonium chloride or bromide; tetrapropylammonium 1209~52 chloride, bromide or iodide; and the like. Possible phase transfer catalysts include phosphonium salts. The reaction temperatures are ;n general between 30 and 13ûC, or at the bo;l;ng po;nt of the solvent or solvent mixture.
S In cases where W ;n formula IV ;s a hydroxyl group, a condensation reaction ;s advantageously carried out. The two reactants are refluxed in a suitable solvent.
In principle, any solvent which is inert towards the reactants and, advantageously, forms an azeotrope with water 1û can be used here. Examples of suitable solvents here are aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and the xylenes, or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chLoride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-d;chloro-ethane, tetra-chloroethylene and chlorobenzene, as well as ether-L;ke compounds, such as tert.-butyl methyl ether, dioxane and the Like. In some cases, the compound of the formula III itself can be used as the solvent. This condensat;on reaction is advantageously carried out in the presence of a strong acid, for example paratoluenesulfonic acid, at the boiling point of the azeotropic mixture.
To prepare the ethers of the formuLa I, it is also possible first to replace the free OH group in the compounds of the formula Ia by one of the above conventional leaving groups W and then to react the product with a compound of the formula IV (where W = OH).
The starting substances of the formula III are gene-raLly known, or they can be prepared by methods which are known per se.
The oxiranes of the formula II are novel, ar,d are intermediates which have been developed particularly for the preparation of the useful active substances of the formula I.
Because of their structural nature, they can be converted into the compounds of the formula Ia in a simple manner, and, moreover, some of the compounds of the formula II have a fun-gicidal activity towards harmful fungi from the families ofAscomycetes, Basidiomycetes or Fungi ;mperfecti.
Epox;des of the formula II can be prepared from ketones of the formula V
Ar-C-C-F (V) Il I
o R3 in a manner which is known per se by reaction with dimethyl-sulfonium methylide or dimethyloxosulfonium methylide`(Corey and Chaykovsky, JACS, 1962, 84, 3782).
The ketones of the formula V are accessible by me-thods which are known per se from the literature of J. Le-roy, J. Org. Chem. 46, 206 (1981) or Houben-Weyl, volume V/3, page 211), from the corresponding known a-bromo-ketones by conventional replacement of the bromine by fluorine, or they can also be prepared by acylation of the aromatic on which they are based with fluorinated carboxylic acid deri-vatives, for example by a Friedel-Crafts reaction.
In principle, unless expressly specified in a parti-cular case, one or more solvents or diluents which are inertin the reaction can be present in the preparation of all the starting substances, intermediates and end products mentioned here. Examples of suitable solvents or diluents are alipha-tic and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, the xylenes and petroleum ether; halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzene, methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and tetrachloroethylene;
ethers and ether-like compounds, such as dialkyl ethers (di-ethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tert.-butyl methyl ether and the like), anisole, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran; nitriles, such as acetonitrile and propionitrile; N,N-dialkylated amides, such as dimethylformamide; dimethylsulfoxide; ke-tones, such as acetone, diethyl ketone and methyl ethyl ke-tone, and mixtures of these solvents with one another. In some cases, it may also be advantageous to carry out the re-action or part steps of a reaction under a protective gas at-mosphere and/or in absolute solvents. Suitable protective gases are inert gases, such as nitrogen, helium, argon or, in certain cases, also carbon dioxide.
^" 1209152 The compounds of the formula I
ORl R2 l*
Az--CH2-- f C--F (I) Ar R3 always have an asymmetric C atom C* in the position adjacent to the substituents Ar and OR1 and can therefore exist in two enantiomeric forms. In general, a mixture of the two enantiomers is formed in the preparation of these substances, and this can be split into the pure optical antipodes in a conventional manner, for example by fractional crystallisa-tion of salts with strong optically active acids. The enan-tiomers can have d;fferent biological actions; thus, forexample, the fungicidal action can be in the foreground in one form and the pLant growth-regulating action can be in the foreground in the other form. A gradual difference in ac-tivity may also occur in the same action spectrum. If the radicals R2 and R3 are different, the molecule contains a further centre of asymmetry (*), which leads to the exis-tence of diastereomeric mixtures (threo- and erythro-forms), which can be separated by means of physical methods.
The present invention relates to all the pure enan-tiomers and diastereomers and mixtures thereof with one ano-ther.
The preparation process described, including all the part steps' is an important component of the present inven-tion.
It has been found, surprisingly, that compounds of the formula I have a microbicidal spectrum against phyto-pathogenic fungi and bacteria which is very favourable for practical requirements. They have very advantageous cura-tive, systemic and, in particular, preventive properties and can be used for protecting numerous crop plants. The micro-organisms which occur on plants or parts of plants (fruit, blossom, foliage, stems, tubers and roots) of various useful crops can be checked or destroyed with the active substances I, - ~Z09152 of the formula I, the addit;onal future growth of parts of plants also remaining protected from such m;croorgan;sms.
The active substances of the formula I are effec~;ve against phytopathogenic fungi belonging to the following classes: Fungi imperfecti (for example, sOtrytiS, Helmin-thosporium, Fusarium, Septoria, Cercospora and Alternaria);
and Basidiomycetes (for example the genera Hemileia, Rhizoco-tonia and Puccinia); and they are particularly active against the class of Ascomycetes for example Venturia, Podosphaera, 1û Erysiphe, Mon;l;nia and Uncinula). Moreover, the compounds of the formula I have a systemic action. They can further-more be used as dressings for the treatment of seed (fru;t, tubers and seed) and plant seedlings, for protection from fungal infections and against phytopathogenic fungi which occur in the soil.
The invention thus also relates to microbicidal com-positions and to the use of the compounds of the formula I
for the control of phytopathogenic microorganisms, in parti-cular fung; which are harmful to plants, and for preventive prophylaxis of an attack on plants.
The present invention furthermore also includes the preparation of agrochemical compositions which comprises ;ntimate m;x;ng of the active substance with one or more substances or groups of substances described in this Appli-cation. The present invention also includes a method oftreating plants which comprises application of the compounds of the formula I or of the novel compositions.
The following plant species are examples of target crops in the context of this invention for the fields of in-dication disclosed herein: cereals: (wheat, barley, rye,oats, rice, sorghum and related species); beet (sugar-beet and fodder beet); pomaceous fruit, stone fruit and berries:
(apple, pear, plum, peach, almond, cherry, strawberry, rasp-berry and blackberry); pulse: (bean, lentil, pea, soya bean);
oil crops: (rape, mustard, poppy, olive, sunflower, coconut, castor, cacao and groundnut); cucumber crops: (pumpkin, cu-cumber, melon); fibre crops: (cotton, flax, hemp and jute);
1209~S2 c;trus fru;ts: (orange? lemon, grapefru;t and mandar;n)~
vegetable variet;es: (spinach, lettuce, asparagus, cabbage var;eties, carrot, onion, tomato, potato and paprika); laurel crops: (avocado, cinnamon and camphor); or pLants such as maize, tobacco, nut, coffee, sugar cane, tea, vine, hop and banana and natural rubber crops, and ornamental plants (com-posites).
Active substances of the formula I are usually em-ployed in the form of formulations and can be applied to the area or plant to be treated at the same time as or after other active substances. These other active substances can be fertilisers, carriers of trace eLements or other products which influence plant growth. They can also be, however, selective herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides or mixtures of several of these products, if necessary together with other carriers, surfac-tants or other application-promoting adjuvants conventionally used in the art of formulation.
Suitable carriers and adjuvants can be solid or li-quid and correspond to the substances appropriate in the artof formulation, for example natural or regenerated mine-ral substances, solvents, dispersants, wetting agents, tacki-fiers, thickeners, binders or fertil;sers.
A preferred method of application of an active sub-stance of the formula I or of an agrochemical compositioncontaining at least one of these active substances is appl;-cation to the foliage leaf application). The number of applications and the amount applied depend on the threat of attack by the corresponding pathogen species of fungus).
However, the active substances of the formula I can also en-ter the plants through the root via the soil systemic action) by a method in which the location of the plant is soaked with a liquid formulation or the substances are incorporated into the soil in solid form, for example in the form of granules soil application). The compounds of the formula I can, how-ever, also be applied to seed coating), by a method in which the seed is either soaked in a liquid formulation of the active substance or coated with a soLid formulation. More-over, other types of application are possible in particular cases, thus, for example, controlled treatment of the plant stems or the buds.
The compounds of the formula I are used here in un-modified form or, preferably, together with the assistants conventionally used in the art of formulation, and are thus processed in a known manner to, for example, emulsion concentrates, brushable pastes, directly sprayable or dilu-table solutions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts or granules, by encapsulation in, for example, polymeric substances. The methods of application, such as spraying, misting, dusting, scattering, brushing or watering, ;s chosen according to the intended aims and the given cir-cumstances, as is the type of composition. Favourable appli-cation amounts are generally 50 9 to 5 kg of active substance (AS) per hectare; preferably 100 9 to 2 kg of AS/hectare, and in particular 200 9 to 600 9 of AS/hectare.
The formulations, i.e. the compositions, preparations or mixtures, containing the active substance of the formula I and, if appropriate, a solid or liquid adjuvant are pre-pared in a known manner, for example by intimate mixing and/
or grinding of the active substances with extenders, for ex-ample with solvents, solid carriers and, if necessary, sur-face-active compounds (surfactants).
Suitable solvents are: aromatic hydrocarbons, pre-ferably C8 to C12 fractions, for example xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalic acid esters, such as dibutyl phthalate or dioctyl phthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols and ethers and esters thereof, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monomethyl or monoethyl ether, ketones, such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylsulfoxide or dimethylformamide, and, where relevant, epoxidised vegetable oils, such as epoxidised coconut oil or soya bean oil; or water.
The solid carriers used, for example for dust and - 1209~52 dispersible powders, are as a rule ground natural minerals, such as calcite, talc, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite.
Highly disperse silica or highly disperse absorbent polymers may also be added to improve the physical properties. Sui-table granular, adsorptive carriers for granules are poroustypes, for example pumice, broken brick, sepiolite or ben-tonite, and suitable non-adsorptive carriers are, for example, calcite or sand. A large number of pre-granulated materials of inorganic or organic nature, such as, in particular, dolo-mite or comminuted plant residues, can moreover be used.Further particularly advantageous adjuvants which promote application and can lead to a large reduction in the amount applied are natural tanimal or vegetable) or synthetic phosphoLipids of the cephal;n and lecithin series, for example phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidyl-choline, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidyl-glycerol, lysolecithin, plasmalogens or cardiolipin, which can be isolated, for example, from animal or vegetable cells, in particular from the bra;n, heart or liver or from egg yolks or soya bean. Examples of commercial mixtures which can be used are phosphatidylcholine mixtures. Examples of synthetic phospholipids are dioctanoylphosphatidylcholine and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine.
Suitable surface-active compounds, depending on the nature of the active substance of the formula I to be formu-lated, are non-ionic, cationic and/or anionic surfactants with good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties.
Surfactants are also to be understood as meaning surfactant mixtures.
Suitable anionic surfactants can be either so-called water-soluble soaps or water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds.
Soaps are the alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C1û-C22), for example the Na or K salts of oleic acid or stearic acid, or of naturally occurring fatty acid mixtures, which can be obtained, for example, from coconut ~209152 oiL or taLlow oil. The fatty acid methyL-laurin saLts are aLso suitable.
However, so-called synthetic surfactants, in parti-cular fatty suLfonates, fatty sulfates, sulfonated benzimi-dazole der;vatives or alkylsulfonates, are more frequentlyused.
The fatty suLfonates or suLfates are as a rule in the form of alkaLi metal, alkal;ne earth metal or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium saLts and contain an aLkyl radical having 8 to 22 C atoms, alkyL aLso incLuding the aLkyl moiety of acyL radicaLs, for exampLe the Na or Ca saLt of LigninsuL-fonic acid, dodecyLsuLfuric acid ester or a fatty aLcohoL
sulfate mixture prepared from naturally occurring fatty acids.
These compounds also include the salts of sulfuric acid es-ters and sulfonic acids of fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide ad-ducts. The sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives preferably contain 2-suLfonic acid groups and a fatty acid radicaL hav;ng 8-22 C atoms. Examples of alkyLarylsulfonates are the Na, Ca or tr;ethanoLamine saLts of dodecyLbenzenesuLfonic ac;d, d;butyLnaphthaLenesuLfonic ac;d or a naphthaLenesuLfonic acid/formaLdehyde condensate.
Corresponding phosphates, for exampLe saLts of the phosphoric acid ester of a p-nonyLphenol-(4-14)-ethyLene oxide adduct, are aLso suitable.
Part;cularly su;table non-ion;c surfactants are poly-glycol ether derivatives of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic al-cohoLs, saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and aLkyLphenols, wh;ch may conta;n 3 to 30 gLycol ether groups and 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon radicaL and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the aLkyL radicaL of the aLkyLphenoLs.
Other suitable non-ionic surfactants are the water-soluble adducts, conta;ning 20 to 250 ethylene glycol ether groups and 10 to 100 propylene glycol ether groups, of poly-ethylene oxide and polypropylene gLycol, ethylenediaminopoLy-propylene glycol and an alkylpolypropylene gLycol having 1to 10 carbon atoms in the aLkyl chain. The compounds men-tioned usuaLLy conta;n 1 to 5 ethyLene gLycoL un;ts per , .
propylene glycol unit.
Examples of non-ionic surfactants are nonylphenolpoly-ethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene polyethylene ox;de adducts, tributylphenoxypolyethylene-ethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxypolyethoxy-ethanol.
Fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan, such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate, are also suitable.
The cationic surfactants are, in particular, quater-nary ammonium salts which contain at least one alkyl radicalhaving 8 to 22 C atoms as N-substituent and lower alkyl or benzyl radicals, which may or may not be halogenated, or lower hydroxyalkyl radicals, as further substituents. The salts are preferably in the form of halides, methylsulfates or ethylsulfates, and are, for example, stearyltrimethyl-ammonium chloride or benzyldi(2-chloroethyl)ethylammonium bromide.
The surfactants conventionally used in the art of formulation are descr;bed, inter alia, in the following publications:

The agrochemical formuLations as a rule contain 0.1 to 99Z, in particular 0.1 to 95%, of active substance of the formula I, 99.9 to 1X, in particular 99.8 to 5%, of a solid or liquid adjuvant and 0 to 25%, in particular 0.1 to 25X, of a surfactant.
Whilst concentrated compositions are rather prefer-red as commercial products, the final user as a rule employs dilute compositions.
The compositions can also contain other adjuvants, such as stabilisers, antifoams, viscosity regulators, binders, tackifiers and fertilisers, or other active substances, in order to achieve speciaL effects.
Such agrochemical compositions are a component of the present invention.
The examples which foLlow serve to illustrate the invention in more detail without restricting it. Tempera-tures are in degrees centigrade. Percentages and parts are by weight. In addition, the following symbols are used: h =
hour; d = day; min. = minute; RT = room temperature; N = nor-maLity; abs = absolute, anhydrous; DMS0 = dimethylsulfoxide, and DMF = dimethylformam;de. Pressures are given in milli-bar mb or bar b.

Biological examples:
Example B1: Action against Puccinia graminis on wheat a) Residual-protective action 6 days after sowing, wheat plants were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.02% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 24 hours, the treated plants were infected with a uredospore suspension of the fungus. After incubation at 95-100X relative atmos-1209~5Z
-- 32 --pheric humidlty and about 20C for 48 hours, the infected plants were placed ;n a greenhouse at about 22C. The development of rust pustules was evaluated 12 days after the ;nfect;on.
5 b) Systemic act;on S days after sow;ng, wheat plants were watered w;th a spray l;quor (0.006% of act;ve substance, based on the volume of soil) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 48 hours, the treated plants were in'ected 1û with a uredospore suspension of the fungus. After incuba-t;on at 95-100% relative atmospheric hum;dity at about 20C
for 48 hours, the infected plants were placed ;n a green-house at about 22C. The development of rust pustules was evaluated 12 days after the ;nfect;on.
Compounds from the table had a very good action aga;nst Puccinia fungi. Untreated but infected control plants displayed a Pucc;nia attack of 100%. Inter alia, the compounds 1 to 10, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 25, 33 - 35, 45 - 51 and 53 - 57 inhibited the Puccinia attack to 0 to 5X.
20 Example G2: Action against Cercospora arachidicola on ground-nut plants Residual-protective act;on Groundnut plants 10 - 15 cm h;gh were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.006% of active substance) prepared from 25 a wettable powder of the active substance, and 48 hours later were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. The infected plants were incubated at about 21C at a high atmospheric humidity for 72 hours and were then placed in a greenhouse until the typical leaf spots appeared. The fun-30 gicidal action was evaluated, on the basis of the number andsize of the spots which had appeared, 12 days after the in-fection.
In comparison with untreated but infected control plants tnumber and size of spots = 100%), groundnut plants 35 which had been treated with active substances from the table showed a greatly reduced Cercospora attack. Thus, compounds 1 to 9, 14, 19, 20, 25, 33, 38, 45-51 and 54-58 almost lZ09152 completely prevented the occurrence of spots in ihe above experiments (0-10%).
Example B3: Action against Erysiphe graminis on barley a) Residual-protective action Barley plants about 8 cm high were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.002X of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 3-4 hours, the treated plants were dusted with conidia of the fungus.
The ;nfected barley plants were placed ;n a greenhouse at about 22C and the fungal attack was evaluated after 10 days.
b) Systemic action Barley plants about 8 cm high were watered with a spray liquor ~0.006X of active substance, based on the volume of soil) prepared from a wettable powder of the active sub-stance. Care was thereby taken that the spray liquor did not come ;nto contact with the above-ground parts of the plants. After 48 hours, the treated plants were dusted w;th conidia of the fungus. The infected barley plants were placed in a greenhouse at about 22C and the fungal attack was evaluated after 10 days.
Compounds of the formula showed a good action against Erysiphe fung;. Untreated but infected control plants displayed an Erysiphe attack of 1ûOX. Amongst other compounds from the table, compounds 1 to 10, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 25, 33, 35, 38, 45 - 51 and 53 - 58 inhibited the fungal attack on barley to 0 to 5%, and, ;n particular, compound No. 2 effected complete reduction of attack.
Example B4: Residual-protective action against Venturia inaequalis on apple shoots Apple seedlings with fresh shoots 10 - 20 cm long were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.006% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance.
After 24 hours, the treated plants were infected with a con;d;a suspens;on of the fungus. The plants were then incu-bated at 90 - 100% relative atmospheric humidity for 5 days and placed in a greenhouse at 20-24C for a further 10 days.
The scab attack was evaluated 15 days after the infection.
Compounds 1 to 6, 8, 9, 14, 17, 19, 20, 33, 45, 47, 49 - 51 and 53 - 57 inh;b;ted the d;sease ;nfestat;on to less than 10~. In contrast, untreated but ;nfected control shoots showed 100% attack.
Example B5: Action against Botrytis cinerea on beans Residual-protective action Bean plants about 10 cm high were sprayed with a spray liquor (0.02% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance. After 48 hours, the treated plants were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. After incubation of the infected plants at 95-100% relat;ve atmospheric humidity at 21C for 3 days, the fungal attack was evaluated. The compounds from the table in many cases very greatly inhibited the fungal infec-tion. At a concentration of 0.02X, compounds 1 to 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 20, 25, 33, 35, 45, 47, 49, 50, 51 and 53-57, for example, proved to be completely effective. The disease in-festation was O to 8%.
The Botrytis attack of untreated but infected bean plants was 100%.
ExampLe B6: Action against Piricularia oryzae on rice plants Residual-protective action After being grown for two weeks, rice plants were sprayed with a spray liquor ~0.002% of active substance) prepared from a wettable powder of the active substance.
After 48 hours, the treated plants were infected with a conidia suspension of the fungus. After incubation at 95-100% relative atmospheric humidity at 24C for 5 days, the fungal attack was evaluated.
Rice plants which had been treated with a spray li-quor containing one of the compounds from Table 1, such as, for example, No. 14 or 33, as the active substance, showed a fungal attack of less than 10X, in comparison with the untreated control plants (lOOX attack).
