Abstract
Surfactant adjuvant compounds of formula (I) where R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 have defined meanings can be used with particular effect with glyphosate type herbicides to kill weed species that are recognised as particularly difficult to kill. Examples of such weeds are broad leaved (dicotyledon) weed such as Chenopodium album, Solanum nigrum, Lactuca saligna, Amaranthus retroflexus and Erigeron canadensis (annuals) and Cirsum arvense (perennial) and similar related weeds from these genera and perennial monocotyledon such as Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arvensis and, especially, Agropyron repens and similar related weeds from these genera.
Description
CA 022~600 1998-11-18 WO 97/47199 PCT/GB97tO1484 Herbicidal Compositions This invention relates to the use of certain surfactants as adjuvants in agrochemical formulations, particularly herbicidal compositions using gylphosate and similar herbicides.
Our PCT Application PCT/GB 95/02785 (published as WO96/16930) relates to a class of 5 surfactants of the general formula [formula (I) in PCT/GB 95/02785j:
(R1 H).C.Co.NR3R
(R2H).C.Co.R5 where R1, R2 R3, R4 and R5 have defined meanings (generally one of R and R2 is an alkyl or 10 alkenyl group and the other is hydrogen, -NR R is a polyhydroxylhydrocarbylamino group, particularly a glucamino group, and R is an -NR R group, a different amino group or a polyoxyalkylene group which may include a substituent at the end of the chain). The application describes various uses for these compounds, including as laundry d~tergenl~i, pigment dispersant surfactants and as adjuvant surfactants in agrochemical formulations including as adjuvants in 15 herbicidal compositions based on glyphosate type herbicides.
In current practice, using glyphosate type herbicides, the application rate to ensure effectiveness against difficult to kill weeds, particularly broad leaved weeds, is typically about 30 to 50% higher than would be needed to kill general weeds. It would be very desirable to have an adjuvant that would make such herbicides as effective against the difficult to kill weeds as they now are against 20 the relatively easier to kill weeds.
The present invention is based on our discovery that the su, r~ nts of our earlier PCT case can perform as adjuvants to give enhanced effectiveness of glyphosate type herbicides against weeds, particularly broad leaved and perennial weeds, that are generally relatively more difficult to kill. In particular, this discovery applies to compounds of the where R is a (gluc)amino group 25 or a polyoxyalkylene group, corresponding to compounds of the sub-formulae (1 a) and (1 b) of Application No PCT/GB 95/02785.
The present invention accordingly provides a method of killing weeds which are difficult to kill, which comprises applying to the weeds a herbicidal composition including as active herbicide a glyphosate type herbicide compound and as adjuvant a compound of the formula (I):
(R H).C.Co.NR3R4 (I) (R H).C.CO.R where one of R1 and R2 in the succinic acid moiety is C6 to C22 alkenyl or alkyl and the other is hydrogen;
SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) CA 022~600 1998-ll-18 R4 is hydrogen, C1 to C22 hydrocarbyl, particularly C1 to C20 alkyl;
R5 is a group: -NR3R4 where R3 and R are independently as defined above; or R5 is a group: -O.(AO)n.R where: AO is an alkylene oxide, particularly an ethylene oxide, residue;
5 n is 1 to 200; and R6 is hydrogen, or C1 to C22 hydrocarbyl, particularly C1 to C6 alkyl.
The invention is specifically applicable to the use of compounds of the formula (la) or (Ib):
(R1 H).C.Co.NR3R4 (la) 1 0 (R2H).C.Co.NR3R4 or (R1H).C.Co.NR3R4 (Ib) (R2H).C.C O.O.(A O)n.R6 15 where R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are as defined above. A particularly advantageous sub-class of the compounds of the formula (1 a) above, which have good compatibility with glyphosate type herbicides in aqueous formulation, are compounds of the formula (la'):
(R11H).C.Co.NR13R14 (la') (Rt2H).c.co NR13R14 where:
one of R11 and R12 in the succinic acid moiety is.C6 to C12 alkenyl or alkyl and the other is hydrogen;
each group R13 is a glycosyl group, particularly glucosyl group; and each group R is hydrogen, or a C1 to C4 alkyl group.
25 The surfactant adjuvant compounds used in this invention can be made by the methods described in PCT/GB 95/02785. When made by such methods, compounds used in this invention are, as described in that Ap~ ' on, typically mixtures of isomers corresponding to the two senses of anhydride ring opening during synthesis.
The invention particularly includes a method of killing weeds which are difficult to kill, which 30 comprises applyi"g to the weeds a herbicidal composition including as active herbicide a glyphosate type he~b;o ~e compound and as adjuvant a compound of the formula (la), particularly formula (la'), and/or (Ib) as defined above. Specifically the invention includes a method of killing weeds which are difficult to kill, which comprises applying to the weeds a herbicidal co~,,posillun including as active herbicide a glyphosate amine salt, particularly glyphosate isopropylamino salt 35 ~N-phosphonomethylglycine isopropylamine salt), and as adjuvant a compound of the formula (la), particularly formula (la'), and/or (Ib) as defined above CA 022~600 1998-ll-18 In referring to weeds as being difficult to kill we mean that on I-, ' ~~tion of glyphosate type herbicides, the weeds either require a significantly higher ~rplicAtion of herbicide to kill them than the generality of weeds or that they are not killed rapidly. In particular this applies to broad leaved, dicotyledon weeds (annuals and perennials) and to grass (generally monocotyledon) perennial 5 weeds. Examples include the broad leaved (dicotyledon) weeds of the species: Chenopodivm album, Solanum nigrum, Lactuca sallgna, A~,a,d~,tl~us retroflexus and Erigeron canadensis (annuals) and Cirsum arvense (perennial) and similar related weeds from these genera and perennial monocotyledon weeds of the species: Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arl~ensis and Agropyron repens and similar related weeds from these genera. Among the grass weeds, 10 Agropyron repens is particularly recognised as being difficult to kill.
The term glyphosate type herbicide refers to N-phosphonylmethylglycine herbicides particularly herbicide compounds of the formula:
MO . C(O) . CH2 . N(Z) . CH2 . P(O) (OM)2 where M, and Z (as z11) are as defined in PCT Application No PCT/GB 95/02785. In particular, 15 such compounds where Z is hydrogen are very desirable for use as herL. ~ :~'es and thus the compound HO.C(O).CH2.NH.CH2.P(O).(OH)2 and its salts with agriculturally accepl ~le salt-forming species are especially useful in the invention. Suitable salt-forming species include alkaii metal, particularly sodium, potassium, or rubidium; alkaline earth metal particularly magnesium or calcium; ammonium; primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary aliphatic 20 ammonium, preferably where the total number of carbon atoms is not more than about twelve;
trialkylsulphonium, preferably where the total number of carbon atoms is not more than about six, such as trimethylsulphonium, ethyl dimethylsulphonium and propyl dimethylsulphonium.
In eSpeci~lly useful compounds, each M is hydrogen, alkali metal, ammonium, monoalkyl a~"~,onium or trialkylsulphonium moiety. In the most preferred compounds, one M is an alkali 25 metal, ammonium, monoalkyl a",l"on.um, or trialkylsulphonium, and two are hydrogen. Examples of especially preferred compounds include isopropylamine N-phosphonomethylglycine, trimethylsulphonium N-phosphonomethylglycine and sodium sesqui-N-phosphonomethyl-glycine Combinations of two or more such compounds can be used in the present invention.The mechanism by which these surfactants are es~eci~lly effective against difficult to kill weeds is 30 not certain, but is seems that either the surfactant forms lamellar and/or liquid crystalline phases or structures in the coatings on the leaves of the weeds enhancing rel~ntion of the active component on the leaf surface, or the adjuvant enhances absorption of the active component into the leaves of the weed (the structures referred to above may assist in this), or the surfactant enhances translocation of the active herbicide within the weed after absorption. Whatever the mechanism, 35 the effect seems to be substantial and is seen, at equal rates of application of active herbicide in an increase in the speed of killing weeds, especially difficult to kill weeds and/or that weeds, especi~lly difficult to kill weeds, are killed with lower application rates of the active herbicide than would CA 022~600 1998-11-18 otherwise be needed, in particular reducing effective application rates to those typical for effective control of weeds that are not difficult to kill. In addition to enhanced effectiveness and/or speed of action, particularly in killing difficult to kill weeds, the adjuvants used in the present invention may also reduce the effect of seed spread from treated weeds, and/or provide improved rain fastness of 5 the applied herbicides.
The invention is particularly ~plic~hle to the use of glyphosate itself (N-phospl1onomethylglycine isopropylamine salt) as the surfactants used in the invention are especially effective with glyphosate. Indeed, using glyphosate as the active herbicide with adjuvants used in this invention can give formulations which are more effective, particularly in their effectiveness at lower 10 concentrations and/or in their speed of action, than otherwise similar formulations made using the closely related herbicide sulphosate, which has the same core acid active entity but as the dimethylsulphate salt. As is noted above this use of glyphosate (N-phosphonomethylglycine isopropylamine salt) forms a specific aspect of the invention.
The enhanced herbicidal effect arising from the use of compounds of the formula (I) is particularly 15 noticeable against broad leaved (dicotyledon) weeds especially of the species: Chenopodium album, Solanum nigrum, Lact~ca saligna, Amaran~hus retroflexus and Erigeron canadensis (annuals) and Cirsum arvense (perennial) and similar related weeds from these genera and perennial (generally monocotyledon) weeds of the species: Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arvensis and Agropyron repens and similar related weeds from these genera. Good and enhanced effects 20 have also been observed against grass (monocotyledon) annual weeds for example of the species:
Sorghum halepense and similar related weeds indicating the broad spectrum activity of formulations including the adjuvants used in this invention Accordi, Igly, the invention particularly includes a method of killing a weed selected from Chenopodium album, Solanum nigrum, Lactuca saligna, Amaranthus re~roflexus, Erigeron 25 canadensis and Cirsum arvense and/or a weed selected from Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arvensis and Agropyron repens which comprises applying to the weeds a herbicidal composition including as active herbicide a glyphosate type herbicide compound, particularlyN-phosphonomethylglyCine isopropylamine salt, and as adjuvant a compound of the formula (la) or (Ib) above, specifically and in particular an adjuvant of the formula (la') above.
30 The amounts of the materials used will generally be within the broad ranges typically used in the art with similar materiais. I loJ~vor, as the compositions used in this invention can be more effective, it may be possible to reduce the amount or concentration of the active herbicide as compared with conventional formulations. Considered as propo~lions of spray compositions (so-called 'tank mixes'~ at current spray volume ~pplic~tion rates of about 300 I.ha the concentration of active 35 herbicide will typically be from about 0.05 to about 3%, more usually from about 0.1 to about 0.5 -CA 022~600 lsss-ll-ls and particularly about 0.2%, and the concentration of adjuvant will typically be from about 0.02 to about 2% more usually from about 0.2 to about 1% and particularly about 0.1%. The weight ratio of active herb.~:do to adjuvant surfactant will typically be from about 1 :5 to about 10:1, more usually about 1:2 to about 4:1 and particulariy about 2:1. Where low volume spraying methods are used, 5 the concent~dtions will typically be co"eslJon l; )gly higher, but the ratio of active herbicide to adjuvant will generally remain within the stated ratios. Thus for low volume spraying at formulation application rates of 20 to 50 I.ha , the concentration of active herbicide will typically be from about 0.3 to about 30%, more usually from about 0.5 to about 15 and particularly about 5%, and the concentration of adjuvant will typically be from about 0.1 to about 15% more usually from 10 about 0.5 to about 10% and particularly about 7%, with ratios typically corresponding to the above ranges. Expressed as amounts of the components applied to unit area of field, the active herbicide will typically be applied at a rate of about 300 to about 4000 g.ha 1, more usually about 750 to about 2000 g.ha , and particularly about 1000 to about 1500 g.ha , and correspondingly, the amount of adjuvant surfactant applied will typically be from about 150 to about 4000 g.ha~1, more 15 usually about 500 to about 2000 g.ha~1.
The adiuvant surfactants, especially those of the formula (1 a'), used in this invention have good compatibility with glyphosate type herbicides, they can be formulated into herbicidal concentrates for dilution to tank mixes. In such formulations, the active herbicide will typically be at a concentration of from about 5 to about 60%, more. usually from about 10 to about 40%, and the ~n adjuvant surfactant, particularly an adjuvant surfactant of the formula (1 a'), at a concentration of from aboùt 3 to about 50%, more usually from about 5 to about 30%, by weight of the concentrate.
The adjuvants used in this invention can be incorporated into aqueous herbicide formulations as such. However, we have found that the use of accessories or co-solvents can usefully improve the solubility of the adjuvants as used with the glyphosate herbicides. Suitable accessories and 25 co-solvents are generally water soluble and/or miscible organic solvents for the adjuvant surfactants and include glycols, such as ethylene glycol and particularly propylene glycol (so-called 'monopropylene glycol'), low molecular weight polyglycol ethers and their mono alkyl ethers such as di- and tri-ethylene glycol, di- and tri-propylene glycol and their C1 to C4 mono alkyl ethers and dimethyl isosorbide. When used the proportion of accessory or co-solvent will typically be from 30 about 10 to about 150%, more usually from about 25 to about 75% by weight of the adjuvant used.

The adjuvant surfactants used in this invention have relatively low toxicity and are readily biodegradable. In addition, in combination with the glyphosate type herbicide in aqueous formulation, the adjuvant surfactants are much less susceptible to foaming than the alkyi polyglycoside surfactants that have been suggested for use, particulariy with sulfosate 5 (N-phosphonomethyl glycine trimethylsulphonium salt).

Examples include the broad leaved (dicotyledon) weeds of the species: Chenopodivm album, Solanum nigrum, Lactuca sallgna, A~,a,d~,tl~us retroflexus and Erigeron canadensis (annuals) and Cirsum arvense (perennial) and similar related weeds from these genera and perennial monocotyledon weeds of the species: Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arl~ensis and Agropyron repens and similar related weeds from these genera. Among the grass weeds, 10 Agropyron repens is particularly recognised as being difficult to kill.
The term glyphosate type herbicide refers to N-phosphonylmethylglycine herbicides particularly herbicide compounds of the formula:
MO . C(O) . CH2 . N(Z) . CH2 . P(O) (OM)2 where M, and Z (as z11) are as defined in PCT Application No PCT/GB 95/02785. In particular, 15 such compounds where Z is hydrogen are very desirable for use as herL. ~ :~'es and thus the compound HO.C(O).CH2.NH.CH2.P(O).(OH)2 and its salts with agriculturally accepl ~le salt-forming species are especially useful in the invention. Suitable salt-forming species include alkaii metal, particularly sodium, potassium, or rubidium; alkaline earth metal particularly magnesium or calcium; ammonium; primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary aliphatic 20 ammonium, preferably where the total number of carbon atoms is not more than about twelve;
trialkylsulphonium, preferably where the total number of carbon atoms is not more than about six, such as trimethylsulphonium, ethyl dimethylsulphonium and propyl dimethylsulphonium.
In eSpeci~lly useful compounds, each M is hydrogen, alkali metal, ammonium, monoalkyl a~"~,onium or trialkylsulphonium moiety. In the most preferred compounds, one M is an alkali 25 metal, ammonium, monoalkyl a",l"on.um, or trialkylsulphonium, and two are hydrogen. Examples of especially preferred compounds include isopropylamine N-phosphonomethylglycine, trimethylsulphonium N-phosphonomethylglycine and sodium sesqui-N-phosphonomethyl-glycine Combinations of two or more such compounds can be used in the present invention.The mechanism by which these surfactants are es~eci~lly effective against difficult to kill weeds is 30 not certain, but is seems that either the surfactant forms lamellar and/or liquid crystalline phases or structures in the coatings on the leaves of the weeds enhancing rel~ntion of the active component on the leaf surface, or the adjuvant enhances absorption of the active component into the leaves of the weed (the structures referred to above may assist in this), or the surfactant enhances translocation of the active herbicide within the weed after absorption. Whatever the mechanism, 35 the effect seems to be substantial and is seen, at equal rates of application of active herbicide in an increase in the speed of killing weeds, especially difficult to kill weeds and/or that weeds, especi~lly difficult to kill weeds, are killed with lower application rates of the active herbicide than would CA 022~600 1998-11-18 otherwise be needed, in particular reducing effective application rates to those typical for effective control of weeds that are not difficult to kill. In addition to enhanced effectiveness and/or speed of action, particularly in killing difficult to kill weeds, the adjuvants used in the present invention may also reduce the effect of seed spread from treated weeds, and/or provide improved rain fastness of 5 the applied herbicides.
The invention is particularly ~plic~hle to the use of glyphosate itself (N-phospl1onomethylglycine isopropylamine salt) as the surfactants used in the invention are especially effective with glyphosate. Indeed, using glyphosate as the active herbicide with adjuvants used in this invention can give formulations which are more effective, particularly in their effectiveness at lower 10 concentrations and/or in their speed of action, than otherwise similar formulations made using the closely related herbicide sulphosate, which has the same core acid active entity but as the dimethylsulphate salt. As is noted above this use of glyphosate (N-phosphonomethylglycine isopropylamine salt) forms a specific aspect of the invention.
The enhanced herbicidal effect arising from the use of compounds of the formula (I) is particularly 15 noticeable against broad leaved (dicotyledon) weeds especially of the species: Chenopodium album, Solanum nigrum, Lact~ca saligna, Amaran~hus retroflexus and Erigeron canadensis (annuals) and Cirsum arvense (perennial) and similar related weeds from these genera and perennial (generally monocotyledon) weeds of the species: Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arvensis and Agropyron repens and similar related weeds from these genera. Good and enhanced effects 20 have also been observed against grass (monocotyledon) annual weeds for example of the species:
Sorghum halepense and similar related weeds indicating the broad spectrum activity of formulations including the adjuvants used in this invention Accordi, Igly, the invention particularly includes a method of killing a weed selected from Chenopodium album, Solanum nigrum, Lactuca saligna, Amaranthus re~roflexus, Erigeron 25 canadensis and Cirsum arvense and/or a weed selected from Lolium perenne, Convolvulus arvensis and Agropyron repens which comprises applying to the weeds a herbicidal composition including as active herbicide a glyphosate type herbicide compound, particularlyN-phosphonomethylglyCine isopropylamine salt, and as adjuvant a compound of the formula (la) or (Ib) above, specifically and in particular an adjuvant of the formula (la') above.
30 The amounts of the materials used will generally be within the broad ranges typically used in the art with similar materiais. I loJ~vor, as the compositions used in this invention can be more effective, it may be possible to reduce the amount or concentration of the active herbicide as compared with conventional formulations. Considered as propo~lions of spray compositions (so-called 'tank mixes'~ at current spray volume ~pplic~tion rates of about 300 I.ha the concentration of active 35 herbicide will typically be from about 0.05 to about 3%, more usually from about 0.1 to about 0.5 -CA 022~600 lsss-ll-ls and particularly about 0.2%, and the concentration of adjuvant will typically be from about 0.02 to about 2% more usually from about 0.2 to about 1% and particularly about 0.1%. The weight ratio of active herb.~:do to adjuvant surfactant will typically be from about 1 :5 to about 10:1, more usually about 1:2 to about 4:1 and particulariy about 2:1. Where low volume spraying methods are used, 5 the concent~dtions will typically be co"eslJon l; )gly higher, but the ratio of active herbicide to adjuvant will generally remain within the stated ratios. Thus for low volume spraying at formulation application rates of 20 to 50 I.ha , the concentration of active herbicide will typically be from about 0.3 to about 30%, more usually from about 0.5 to about 15 and particularly about 5%, and the concentration of adjuvant will typically be from about 0.1 to about 15% more usually from 10 about 0.5 to about 10% and particularly about 7%, with ratios typically corresponding to the above ranges. Expressed as amounts of the components applied to unit area of field, the active herbicide will typically be applied at a rate of about 300 to about 4000 g.ha 1, more usually about 750 to about 2000 g.ha , and particularly about 1000 to about 1500 g.ha , and correspondingly, the amount of adjuvant surfactant applied will typically be from about 150 to about 4000 g.ha~1, more 15 usually about 500 to about 2000 g.ha~1.
The adiuvant surfactants, especially those of the formula (1 a'), used in this invention have good compatibility with glyphosate type herbicides, they can be formulated into herbicidal concentrates for dilution to tank mixes. In such formulations, the active herbicide will typically be at a concentration of from about 5 to about 60%, more. usually from about 10 to about 40%, and the ~n adjuvant surfactant, particularly an adjuvant surfactant of the formula (1 a'), at a concentration of from aboùt 3 to about 50%, more usually from about 5 to about 30%, by weight of the concentrate.
The adjuvants used in this invention can be incorporated into aqueous herbicide formulations as such. However, we have found that the use of accessories or co-solvents can usefully improve the solubility of the adjuvants as used with the glyphosate herbicides. Suitable accessories and 25 co-solvents are generally water soluble and/or miscible organic solvents for the adjuvant surfactants and include glycols, such as ethylene glycol and particularly propylene glycol (so-called 'monopropylene glycol'), low molecular weight polyglycol ethers and their mono alkyl ethers such as di- and tri-ethylene glycol, di- and tri-propylene glycol and their C1 to C4 mono alkyl ethers and dimethyl isosorbide. When used the proportion of accessory or co-solvent will typically be from 30 about 10 to about 150%, more usually from about 25 to about 75% by weight of the adjuvant used.

The adjuvant surfactants used in this invention have relatively low toxicity and are readily biodegradable. In addition, in combination with the glyphosate type herbicide in aqueous formulation, the adjuvant surfactants are much less susceptible to foaming than the alkyi polyglycoside surfactants that have been suggested for use, particulariy with sulfosate 5 (N-phosphonomethyl glycine trimethylsulphonium salt).
