Description

Fungicidal mixtures

Description The present invention relates to fungicidal mixtures containing as active components

1) the triazolopyrimidine derivative of the formula I,

and

2) at least one compound of the formula II,

in which the variables have the following meaning: AO or N; BN or a direct bond; GC or N; R ¹ CC ₄ alkyl; R ² CC ₄ alkoxy; and R ³ halogen;

in a synergistically effective amount.

The invention also relates to a method for controlling harmful fungi with mixtures of the compound I with compounds II and the use of the compound I with compounds II for the production of such mixtures and agents which contain these mixtures.

The compound I, 5-chloro-7- (4-methyl-piperidin-1-yl) -6- (2,4,6-trifluorophenylH1, 2,4] tri-azolo [1, 5-a] pyrimidine Their production and their action against harmful fungi are known from the literature (WO 98/46607). The compounds of formula II, their preparation and their action against harmful fungi are also known from the literature (WO 97/48684; WO 02/094797; WO 03/14103).

Mixtures of triazolopyrimidines with other active ingredients are generally known from EP-A 988 790 and US 6 268 371.

With a view to reducing the application rates and widening the spectrum of action of the known compounds, the present invention was based on mixtures which, with a reduced total amount of active compounds applied, have an improved activity against harmful fungi (synergistic mixtures).

Accordingly, the mixtures defined at the outset were found. It has also been found that, when the compound I and compounds II are used simultaneously or separately, or when the compound I and compounds II are used in succession, harmful fungi can be combated better than with the individual compounds (synergistic mixtures).

The mixtures of the compound I and compounds II or the simultaneous joint or separate use of the compound I and compounds II are distinguished by an outstanding activity against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular from the class of the Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Oomycetes and Basidiomycetes. They can be used in plant protection as leaf, pickling and soil fungicides.

They are particularly important for combating a large number of fungi on various crops such as bananas, cotton, vegetables (e.g. cucumbers, beans and squashes), barley, grass, oats, coffee, potatoes, corn, fruit plants, rice, rye, soybeans, tomatoes , Wine, wheat, ornamental plants, sugar cane and a variety of seeds.

They are advantageously suitable for combating the following phytopathogenic fungi: Blumeria graminis (powdery mildew) on cereals, Erysiphe cichoracearum and Sphae-rotheca fuliginea on pumpkin plants, Podosphaera leucotricha on apples, Uncinula necatoran vines, Pucciniaenct on cereals, Rhiz , Rice and lawn, Ustilago seeds on cereals and sugar cane, Venturia inaequalis on apples, Bipola s and Drechslera seeds on cereals, rice and grass, Septoria seeds on wheat, Botrytis cinerea on strawberries, vegetables, ornamental plants and vines , Mycosphaerel- / a species on bananas, peanuts and cereals, Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides on wheat and barley, Pyricularia oryzae on rice, Phakopsora-Aήen on soybeans, Phytophora infestans on potatoes and tomatoes, Pseudoperonospora species on pumpkin plants and hops, Plasmebena viticola on , Alternaria species on vegetables and fruits as well as Fusarium and Verticillium species.

They can also be used in material protection (e.g. wood protection), for example against Paecilomyces variotii.

The compound I and compounds II can be applied simultaneously together or separately or in succession, the sequence in the case of separate application generally not having any effect on the success of the control measures.

In the definitions of the symbols given for formula II, collective terms were used which stand for the following substituents:

Halogen: fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine;

Alkyl: saturated, straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon radicals with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, for example CC ₄ alkyl such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, 1-methylethyl, n-butyl, 1-methylpropyl, 2-methylpropyl or 1, 1-dimethylethyl;

J) ULV solutions (UL)

10 parts by weight of the active ingredients are dissolved in an organic solvent e.g. Xylene dissolved. This gives you a product for direct application.

The active ingredients as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom, e.g. in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oldispersions, pastes, dusts, sprinkling agents, granules by spraying, atomizing, dusting, scattering or pouring. The application forms depend entirely on the purposes of use; in any case, they should ensure the finest possible distribution of the active compounds according to the invention.

Aqueous application forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders (wettable powders, old dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oldispersions, the substances as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent can be homogenized in water by means of wetting agents, adhesives, dispersants or emulsifiers. However, it is also possible to prepare concentrates composed of an active substance, wetting agents, adhesives, dispersants or emulsifiers and possibly solvents or oil, which are suitable for dilution with water. The active ingredient concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations can be varied over a wide range. In general, they are between 0.0001 and 10%, preferably between 0.01 and 1%.

The active ingredients can also be used with great success in the ultra-low-volume process (ULV), it being possible to apply formulations with more than 95% by weight of active ingredient or even the active ingredient without additives.

Oils of various types, wetting agents, adjuvants, herbicides, fungicides, other pesticides, bactericides can be added to the active compounds, if appropriate also only immediately before use (tank mix). These agents are usually added to the agents according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1:10 to 10: 1.

The compounds I and II, or the mixtures or the corresponding formulations, are used in that the harmful fungi, the plants, seeds, soils, areas, materials or spaces to be kept free from them are mixed with a fungicidally effective amount of the mixture or the compounds I and II when applied separately. The application can take place before or after the infestation by the harmful fungi.

The fungicidal activity of the compound and the mixtures can be demonstrated by the following tests:

The active ingredients were prepared separately or together as a stock solution with 0.25% by weight of active ingredient in acetone or DMSO. 1% by weight of emulsifier Uniperol® EL (wetting agent with emulsifying and dispersing action based on ethoxylated alkylphenols) was added to this solution and diluted with water to the desired concentration.

Example of use - Effectiveness against powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe [syn. Blumeria] graminis forma specialis. Tritici with 5 days protective application

Leaves of "Kanzler" wheat seedlings grown in pots were sprayed to runoff point with an aqueous suspension in the active compound concentration given below. The suspension or emulsion was prepared as described above. 5 days after application of the active ingredient, the plants were treated with spores of wheat powdery mildew {Erysiphe [syn. Blumeria] graminis forma specialis. tritici) pollinated. The test plants were then grown in the greenhouse at temperatures between 20 Wheat powdery mildew (Erysiphe [syn. Blumeria] graminis forma specialis. Tritici) pollinated. The test plants were then placed in a greenhouse at temperatures between 20 and 24 ° C and 60 to 90% relative humidity. After 7 days, the extent of mildew development was determined visually in% infestation of the entire leaf area.

The visually determined values for the percentage of leaf areas affected were converted into efficiencies as% of the untreated control:

Efficiency (W) is calculated using Abbot's formula as follows:

W = (1 - α / β) "100

α corresponds to the fungal attack of the treated plants in% and ß corresponds to the fungal attack of the untreated (control) plants in%

With an efficiency of 0, the infection of the treated plants corresponds to that of the untreated control plants; with an efficiency of 100, the treated plants show no infection.

The expected efficacies for combinations of active ingredients were determined using the Colby formula (Colby, S.R. (Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations ", Weeds, 15, pp. 20-22, 1967) and compared with the observed efficacies.

Colby formula: E = x + y - x-y / 100

E expected efficiency, expressed in% of the untreated control, when using the mixture of active ingredients A and B in concentrations a and b

x the efficiency, expressed in% of the untreated control, when using the active ingredient A in the concentration a

y the efficiency, expressed in% of the untreated control, when using the active ingredient B in the concentration b Table A - Individual substances

Table B - mixtures according to the invention
