Docket 4579 HERBICIDAL ARYL TRIAZOLINONES
- The invention described in this application per-tains to weed control in agriculture, horticulture, and other fields where there is a desire to control unwanted plant growth. More specifically, the present application describes certain herbicidal aryl tria-zolinones, compositions of them, methods of preparing them, and methods for preventing or destroying unde-sired plant growth by preemergence or postemergence application of the herbicidal compositions to the locus where control is desired. The present compounds may be used to effectively control a variety of both grassy and broadleaf plant species. The presene invention is partic-ularly useful in agriculture; a 1 15 number of the compounds described herein show a selec-~' tivity ~avorable to certain crops at applicati`on levels which inhibit the growth of or destroy a variety of weeds.
One aspect of this invention relates to herbici-'~ 20 dal compounds of the general formula ., ~
:, X O

Y ~ N ~ Rl (Formula I) R3CooR4 wherein R is CHF2 or CH2F;
; X is~bromine, chlorin~e, or~fluorine or haloalkyl e.g. CF3);
Rl~may be halogen (e.g. chlorine), alkyl (e.g.
25~ of l to 5 carbon atoms), haloalkyl (e.g. of l~to 5 carbon atoms such as difluoromethyl), alkoxyalkyl te.~g. of~2 to~6 carbon atoms such as methoxymethyl), cyanoalkyl~(e.~g. of 2 to 6~carbon atoms such as cyano-mcthyl), arylalkyl such as benzyl, alkylthio ~e.g. of 1 to 3 carbon atoms such as methylthio) or the corre-sponding al~ylsul~inyl or alkylsulfonyl, or alkylthio-alkyl (e.g., of 1 to 3 carbon atoms independently ~ith respect to each alkyl, such as methylthiomethyl) or the corresponding alkylsulfinylalkyl or alkylsulfonyl-alkyl.
Y is bromine, chlorine, ~luorine, methyl, haloalkyl (e.g. FCH ), a radical of the ~ormula R80CH2-, R8SCH2-, R~SOCH2- or R8S02CH2-where R is Cl-C3alkyl, C2-C5alkenyl, or C3-C5 alkynyl (e.g., CH30CH2-, CH3SCH2-, CH2=CHCH20CH2-,
2 2 2 , CH-CCH2OCH2-, or CH-C-CH SCH
R8 may also be phenyl (or phenyl substituted with e.g., halogen, alkyl, haloalkyl; see, e.g. compound 50, below~.
R is an alkylene radical (e.g. a lower alkyl-ene such as -CH2- or -CH(CH3)-) or a haloalkylene ~ radical (e.g. -CHF-) and R is an alkyl radical ;~ 20 (e.g. CH3, C2H5~ C3H7~ C4Hg). 2 It is preferred that R be methyl and R be -~ CHF2 and particularly that X be chlorine or (more preferably) fluorine and Y be chlorine.
Some of the compounds described above difer from 2~5 otherwise similar compounds~disclosed in U.S. patent 4,318,731 in that ~ of that patent is hydrogen, an ~ alkyl group, or an alkenyl group. It has been ~ound `~ now that the replacement of an alkyl group by a CHF2 or CH2F group yields compounds of much greater herbicidal activity. This is shown, for instance, in Table I below which gives~the~results of tests of the ;following;two compounds,~each applied at the rate of 0.125 kg. per hectare: ~
A. A compound in which R2 is CHF2 . ~

- 3 (compound No. 5 described below).
B. An otherwise identical compound in which R is C2H5 (compound 62 of the aforesaid U.S.
patent).
Representative compounds according to this aspect of the invention are given in Table 2 below.
The herbicidal esters of the aspect of the inven-tion described above may be hydrolyzed to produce the corresponding acids, i.e., to compounds of the fore-going formula in which the substituent-para to "X" is -OR COOH (i.e. carboxyalkoxy). I have found that these acids are also effective herbicides, somewhat less potent than the corresponding esters. The acids are also useful as intermediates for the preparation (as by esteriication or amide formation) of other herbicidal compounds. The acids may be converted to their salts,.such as their sodium, potassium, ammo-nium, calcium, magnesium, or mono, di or trialkylammo-nium sal~s, which may be used as herbicides.
Representative acids and salts are shown in Table 3 below.

In this (Formula III) aspect of the invention, ~, Y and P~ may be as de~ined above for Formula Ij and R may be as defined above for Formula II. It is preferred that R be methyl and R ~be CHF2 and particularly that X be chlorine or (more preferably) fluorine and Y be chlorine.

;~ ~ 20 ~ In each aspect of the invention, it is often pre-ferable that any alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl or alkylene radical have less than 6 carbon atoms.
The compounds of this lnvention may be prepared by~method~s generally described in ;the literature or by 25 ~ methods analogous~or similar thereto and within the;
sklll of the art.~ One type~ of me~thod starts with an intermediate in~which the s;ubstituent para to "X" is hydroxyl.~ For instance, one may use the intermediate descrlbed ln "Synthetic Proces~s~Example 6" of UX

in which X and Y are Cl, Rl is CH3 and R is CHF2 (the corresponding compound in which R2 is CH2F is made by substituting chlorofluoromethane for the chlorodifluoromethane used in "Synthetic Process Example 1" o~ that published patent application). The OH group of the intermediate may then be converted to the desired substituent, as by a conventional etheri-~ication reaction, e.g., by reacting it with the appropriate bromide in the presence of a known accep-tor of HBr such as NaH or a mixture of K2C03 and NaI.
As illustrated in ~xamples 2 and 3 below, the synthesis may employ a substituted phenylhydrazine, whose hydrazine portion is then modified to ~orm a triazolinone ring. Such modification (which in ~; Examples 2 and 3 is ef~ected by reaction with pyruvic acid and then with a phosphoryl azide) may also be ~- effected by other techniques, such as by treating the substituted phenylhydrazine with any of the folIowing ~our types of reagents:
(a) an inner salt of a 3~ iminoalkylmer-capto)-l-propanesulfonic acid twhich may be prepared according to Reid and Schmidt, Ann. Chem. 676, 114 (1964) ~rom 1,3-propanesultone and a thioamide), to form an amidrazone followed by reaction with a source of phosgene, as by the following reaction sequence ~;~ (which is also illustrated in~Example 15~below), r ~ ~Z : ~20 ~ R2 CR3C-6--S03 ArNHNH2 ~ ArN~-ND~ --> ArNR-N~

~rNHNH2 ~ ClC~2CN ~ N-C-C~2Cl ~ --> A~-N~ N-~3 C~30H Cl~COCCl CF2 or COC12 In Examples 2 and 3 below the "Ar" portion of the aryl hydrazine (whose hydrazine portion is then modi-fied to form the triazoline ring) has halo substi-tuents at its 2 and 4 positions and an alkoxy group atits S position. Instead, in each of the processes illustrated above (and in the process of those Examples 2 and 3), the Ar group may be a phenyl ~; radical or a fluorophenyl ~e.g. Z-fluorophenyl) or a nitrophenyl (e.g. 3-nitrophenyl) alkoxyphenyl (e.g.
3-methoxyphenyl) or, most preferably, halonitrophenyl, - ~ particularly a fluoronitrophenyl (such as 2-fluoro-S-~- nitrophenyl) or haloalkoxyphenyl (such as 2-fluoro-5-alkoxyphenyl) and the aryl triazoline may then be treated to (a) alkylate the nitrogen at the 4-position of the triazoline ring (in known manner, e.g. with an alkyl or fluoroalkyl halide, such as with ClCHF2 to add the preferred - CHFz substituent) and (b) to introduce additional substituents onto the aro~atic 2Q r~ing, as by~halogenation wi~th chlorine or bromine (e.g. by reacting with C12~,~Brz~or SO2C12).
For instance the alkylation of the nitrogen at the
4-positlon may be effected first, after~which the nitro group (if present) may be reduced to an amino S~ ~group~in~conventional manner, the amino group may be converted~to a~hydroxyl group (as by conventional diazotization)~and then, preferabIy after etherifying the~OH~to form~an~alkoxy (e.g.~methoxy) group, the compound~;may~be haiogenated as above to place the~
30~ halogen substit~uent or substi~tuents on its benzene ring. The resulting compound may then be modified at the 5-position of the benzene ring to form the herbi-cidal compounds of this invention. For instance,, for making the preferred compounds of the invention in which the benzene ring has a 2-fluoro substituent, the starting material may be 2-fluoro-5-nitrophenylhydra-zine, which may be treated as described above to pro-duce successively a series of novel compounds such as 1-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-me~hyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(lH)-one, then 1-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl-4,5-dihydro-4-difluoromethyl-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-one. These may be converted to the corresponding novel compounds having, at the 5-position of the benzene ring, successively - NH2, -OH and (prefer-ably) - OCH3, followed by halogenation to place, for instance, a chloro or bromo substituent at the 4-posi-tion of the benzene ring. Instead oE alkylating at ~-~ the 4-position of the ring triazdline at an early ;~, stage, e.g. prior to altering the nitro group, this alkylation step may be delayed until after the above-described halogenation of the ben7ene ring or even until after the conversion of thè alkoxy (or other) group at the 5-position of the benzene ring to one of the groups described at that position in Formulas I, II, III and IV (and Tables 2, 3, 4, and 5) above.
Similarly, when the reagent(s) used to react with the aryl hydrazine are such as to produce a triazolin-one having a haloalkyl (e.g. CHF2) group instead of an alkyl group on the carbon at the 3-position of the heterocyclic ring, t~he series of new compounds will includej successively, ~from 2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl ; hydrazine) such compounds as 1-(2-fluoro-5-nitro-phenyl)-~,5-dihydro-3-difluoromethyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-(lH)-one, t~en 1-~2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-35~ 4-methyl ~or difluoromethyl)-3-difluoromethyl-1,2,4-.:j ~i :. ,~ .,., , ........... . :

triazol-5(lH)-one. These may be converted to the corresponding novel compounds having, at the 5-posi-tion o~ the benzene ring, succassively - NH2, -OH
and (preferably) -OCH3 followed by halogenation to place, for instance, a chloro or bromo substituent at the 4-position of the benzene ring. When the aryl hydrazine is 3-nitrophenyl hydrazine (instead of 2-fluoro-5-nitrophenylhydrazine) the series of nove].
compounds will include, successively, such compounds as 1-(3-nitrophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-di~luoromethyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-one, then 1-(3-nitrophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-4-methyl (or difluoromethyl)-3-difluoro-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(lH)-one. These may be con-verted ~o the corresponding novel compounds having, at the 3-position of the benzene ring, successively -NH2, -OH and (preferably) -OCH3, followed by halo-genation to place, for instance, chloro or bromo sub-stituents on the benzene ring.
Example 11 below illustrates a process for making a compound of this invention having a sulfonamide group at the 5-position of~the benzene ring by react-ing (a) a compound havlng an oxypropionic acid substi-tuent at that 5-position with (b) an aryl sulfonyliso-cyanate.
Another method for introducing the sulfo~amide group is by reacting (a) a compound having a phenolic OH group at that 5-position with (b) an N aryl (or .
alkyl etc.) sulfonylalkanoic acid amide having a reactive leaving~substituent (e.g. Br, Cl, mesylate or tosylate)~ on the alkane portion of the molecule, e.g.

CH3CHC-NHS02Ar.

`~ Such a reaction can be carried out in the presence of a base (e.g. in acetone in the presence of sodium or potassium carbonate). This method is illustrated in Example 14 below.
The following Examples illustrate the preparation of the compounds of this invention.
Example 1 ; Ethyl [2,4-dichloro-5-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-lH-l,Zs4-triazol-l-yl)phenoxy]acetate To a stirred mixture of 15.0 g (0.048 mole) of 1-(2,4-dichloro-5-hydroxyphenyl)-4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-one and 3.4 g (0.024 mole) of potassium carbonate in 100 mL of acetone was added 8.1 g (0.048 mole) of ethyl bromoacetate. The resultant mixture was stirred at reflux for three hours. After cooling, the mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure leaving a residue. This residue was partitioned between diethyl ether and water. The organic phase was washed with an aqueous 10% sodium hydroxide solution, then was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered. Evaporation of the filtrate under reduced pressure produced 17.8 g of a solid. A small porti~on of this solid was recrys-tallized Erom~methanol and water to yield ethyl [2,4-dichloro-5-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-lH-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenoxy]acetate (mp 118-119C), compound 17.

The plant test species used in demonstrating the herbicidal activity of compounds of this invention include cotton (Gossypium hirsutum var. Stoneville), soybean (Glycine max var. Williams), field corn (Zea mays var. Agway 595S), wheat (Triticum aestivium var.
Prodax), rice (Oryza sativa), field bindweed (Convol-vulus arvensis), morningglory (Ipomea lacunosa or Ipomea hederacea, velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus g~li), green foxtail ~, (Setaria viridis), and johnsongrass (Sorghum hale-~), yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus).
Seeds or tubers of the plant test species were plant~ed in ~urrows in steam sterilized sandy loam soil ~ contained in disposable fiber flats. A topping soil o~ equal porti~ons of sand and sandy loam soil was placed un~iformly on top of each flat to a depth of approximately 0.5 cm.
The flats for the preemergence test were watered, then drenched with the appropriate~amount of a solu-tion of the test compound in a mixture of acetone and .~, :
water containing a small ~amount (up to 0.5% v/v) of sorbitan monolaurate emulsifier/solubilizer. The , :., :
concentration of the test compound in solution was varied to give a range of application rates, generally : ~
,.,,~ ~, ~6~66~

8.0 kg/ha and submultiples thereof. The flats were placed in a greenhouse and watered regularly at the soil surface for 21 days at which time phytotoxicity data were recorded.
The flats for the postemergence test were placed in a greenhouse and watered for 8-10 days, then the foilage of the emerged test plants was sprayed with a solution of the test compound in acetone-water con-taining up to 0.5% sorbitan monolaurate. After spray-ing, the foilage was kept dry for 24 hours, then watered regularly for 21 days, and phytotoxicity data recorded.
Phy~oto~icity data were taken either as percent kill or percent control. Percent control was deter-mined by a method similar to the O to 100 rating system disclosed in "Research Methods in Weed Science," 2nd ed., B. Truelove, Ed.; Southern Weed Science Society; Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama, 1977. The present rating system is as follows:

The test compounds are identified in the tables of herbicidal data below by n~mbers which correspond to those used above.
In the Tables of herbicidal data below:
"kg/ha" is kilograms per hectare, "% K" is percent kill, and "~ C" is percent control.
For herbicidal application, the active co~pounds as above defined are formulated into herbicidal com-positions by admixture in herbicidally effective amounts with adjuvants and carriers normally employed in the art for facilitating the dispersion of active ingredients for the particular utility desired, recog-nizing the fact that the formulation and mode of application of a toxicant may a~fect the activity of the material in a given application. Thus, for agricultural use the present herbicidal compounds may be formulated as granules of relatively large particle size, water-soluble or water-dispersible granules, as ' powdery dusts, as wettable powders, as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions or as any of several other known types of formulations, depending on the desired 25~ mode of application.
For preemergence application these herbicidal composltions are usually applied either as sprays, dusts1 or granuies to the~areas in which suppression of vegetation is desired. For postemergence control of established plant growth, sprays or dusts are most commonly~us;ed. These formulations may contain as lit~tle as 0.5% to as much as 95% or more by weight of active ingredient.
Dusts re free flowing admixture~s of~the active `` 35 ~ ingredient with finely divided solids such as talc, '7 - so -natural clays, kieselguhr, f~ours such as walnut shell and cottonseed flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act as dispersants and carriers for the toxicant; these finely divided solids have an average particle size of less than about 50 microns. A typi-cal dust formulation useful herein is one containing 1.0 part of the herbicidal compound and 99.0 parts of talc.
Wettable powders, also useful formulations for both pre- and postemergence herbicides, are in the form of finely divided particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant. The wettable powder is ultimately applied to the soil either as a dry dust or as an emulsion in water or other liquid.
Typical carriers for wettable powders include Fuller's earth, kaolin clays, silicas, and other highly absor-bent, ~readily wet inorganic diluents. Wettable pow-ders normally are prepared to contain about 5-80% of ; active ingredient, depending on the absorbency of the carrier, and usually also contain a small amount of a ~; wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agent to facilitate dispersion. For example, a useful wettable powder - ~ ~ormulation contains 80.8 parts of the herbicidal -~ compound, 17.9 parts of Palmetto clay, and 1.0 part of sodium lignosulfonate and O.3 part of sulfonated aliphatic polyester as wetting agents. Frequently, additional wetting agent and/or oil will be added to the tank-mix for postemergence application to facili-tate dispersion on the foliage and absorption by the plant.
~ Other~ useful formulations for herbicidal applica--~ tions are emulsifiable concentrates. Emulsifiable concentrates~are homogeneous liquid or paste composi-tions dispersible in water or other dispersant, and may consist entirely of the herbicidal compound and a : ~ : : :

~.: , : . :. . . ~ : ..

.: ... . .~ ~,. .. : ; --~

i6~'7 liquid or solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier, such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, or other non-volatile organic solvent. For herbicidal application these concen- ~
trates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated. The percentage by weight of the essential - active ingredient may vary according to the manner in which the composition is to be applied, but in general comprises 0.5 to 95% of active ingredient by weight of the herbicidal composition.
Typical wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents used in agricultural formulations include, for exam-ple, the alkyl and alkylaryl sulfonates and s~lfates and their sodium salts; polyhydric alcohols; and other ~; types of surface active agents, many of which are ; available in commerce. The surface active agent, when used, normally comprises 1% to 15% by weight of the herbicidal composition.
~ Other useful formulations for herbicidal applica-tions include simple solutions of the active ingre-dient in a dispersant in which it is completely solu-ble at the desired concentration, such as acetone, aIkylated naphthalenes, xylene or other organic sol-25~ vents. Granular formulations, wherein the toxicant is carried on~irelatively coarse particles,~are of parti- ;
cular utility for aerial;distribution or for penetra-tion of cover crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, typically;aerosols wherein~the active ingredient is ~dispersed in finely divided~form as a result of vapor-i2ation of;a low boiling di~spers;ant solvent carrier,~
such~as~the~Freons, may also be~used. Water-soluble or~water-~di~spersible granules are a3so useful `formula-tions~for herbicidal application of the present com-p-un1s. Su=h granulA- formul~tlons ~r~ tr-e-'l-win~:

~26~6~7 non-dusty, and readily water-soluble or water-misci-ble. The soluble or dispersible granular formulations described in U.S. patent No. 3,920,442, ~ e~
~ ~e~ F~ e~ are useful herein with the pre-sent herbicidal compounds.
The active herbicidal compounds o~ this invention may be formulated and/or applied ~ith insecticides, fungicides, nematicides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, or other agricultural chemicals and may be used as effective soil sterilants as well as selec-tive herbicides in agriculture. In applying an active ; compound o~ this invention, whether formulated alone or with other agricultural chemicals, an effective amount and concentration of the active compound is of course employed; the amount may be as low as, for example, 7 g/ha or lower.
The active herbicidal compounds of this invention may be used in combination with other herbicides, e.g.
they may be mixed with, say, an equal or lar~er amount o~ a known herbicide such as chloroacetanilide -;~ herbicides such as 2-chloro-N-t2,6-diethylphenyl)-N-(methoxy~ethyl)acetamide (alachlor),;2-chloro-N-(2--` ethyl-6-methylphenyl)-N-(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-acetamide (metolachlor), and N-chloroacetyl-N-(2,6-diethylphenyl)gIycine (diethatyl-ethyl); benzothia-diazinone herbicides such as 3-(1-methylethyl)-(lH) 2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4-(3H)-one-2,2-dioxide (benta zon); ~triazlne herbicides such as 6-chloro-N-ethyl-N-(l-methylethyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine (atra-;30 zine),; and 2- [4-chloro-6-(ethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]-amino -2-methylpropanenitrile ~cyanazine);
dinitrolaniline herbicid~es such as 2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzeneamine (triflura-lin); and aryl urea herbicides such as N'-(3,4-di-~ : :

:~2~6~7 - ~3 -chlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethylurea (diuron) and N,N-dimethyl-N'-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]urea (fluo-meturon).
It is apparent that various modifications may be made in the formulation and application of the com-: pounds of this invention, without departing from the inventive concepts herein, as defined in the following claims.
