A fungicidal composition comprising a carrier and the above salt, a method for combating fungus, the use of the salt as fungicide and a process for preparing the salt are also described.

Description

SPECIFICATION Phosphonium Salt of N-Formyl-N-Hydroxy-Alanine The present invention relates to certain phosphonium salts of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine.
European patent application 57027 in the name of Applicant describes the fungicidally active compound N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine and a variety of derivatives showing fungicidal activity as well.
It has now been found that certain phosphonium salts of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine which are not known from European patent application 57027 appear to show very suitable fungicidal activities.
The present invention therefore provides a phosphonium salt of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine of general formula I
in which each of R', R2, R3 and R4 independently represents a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl group having up to 12 carbon atoms.
PreferablyR1, R2, R3 and R4 independently represents alkyl having 1-7 carbon atoms and phenyl.
Most preferred phosphonium salts are selected from the tetraphenylphosphonium, the (2 methyl)propylenetriphenylphosphonium, the 2-hydroxyethyltriphenylphosphonium and the triphenylheptylphosphonium salt of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine.
The present invention also provides a fungicidal composition which comprises a carrier and a phosphonium salt as hereinbefore described.
A carrier in a composition according to the invention is any material with which the active ingredient is formulated to facilitate application to the locus to be treated, which may for example be a plant, seed or soil, or to facilitate storage, transport or handling. A carrier may be a solid or a liquid, including a material which is normally gaseous but which has been compressed to form a liquid, and any of the carriers normally used in formulating fungicidal compositions may be used.
Suitable carriers have been described in European patent application 57027 on page 4, line 18 until page 6, line 4.
Further reference is made to European patent application 57027, on page 6, line 5 until page 7, line 9, with respect to what kind of formulations are suitable in connection with the present invention.
In another aspect, the invention also provides a method for combating fungus as described in European Patent Application 57027 on page 3, last paragraph until page 4, first paragraph.
The present invention wili be illustrated by the following Examples.
EXAMPLE 1 Preparation of the (2-Methyl)propylenetriphenylphosphonium Salt of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine.
(2-methyl)propylenetriphenylphosphonium chloride (1 mole) in water (1 I.) was treated with damp silver oxide (2mole) and mixture stirred at R.T. for 2 hours. The silver salts were filtered off and the aqueous filtrate treated with N-formyl-N-hydroxyalanine (1 mole) in water (1 I.). Removal of water resulted in a yellow, viscous, hygroscopic oil.
Yield quantitative anal. Calc.: C 64.9%; H 6.7%, N 2.9%; P 6.45% Found: C 65.0%; H 7.0%; N 2.8%; P 6.5% EXAMPLE 2 Preparation of the Tetraphenylphosphonium Salt of N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine.
Tetraphenylphosphoniumbromide (1 mole) in water/ethanol (11. 50% soln.) was stirred at room temperature with moist silver oxide (2moles) for 2 hours. The silver salts were filtered off and the aqueous filtrate treated with N-formyl-N-hydroxy-alanine (1 mole) in water (1 I.). Removal of water resulted in a white solid which was triturated under ether.
Yield: 70%.

Calc. 61.9% 5.8% 2.9% Found 62.6% 6.1% 3.3% 5 triphenylheptyiphosphonium anal. Calc. 68.1% 7.45% 2.7% Found 67.4% 7.8% 2.5% The present invention will be further described with reference to the following Example.
EXAMPLE 6 Glasshouse Fungicide Evaluation The following tests which have been described in European patent application 57027 have been carried out.
(a) Antisporulent activity against vine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola; P.v.a.).
(b) Translaminar activity against vine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola; P.v.t.).
(c) Activity against apple powdery mildew (Podosphaera leucotricha; P.l.).
A test which has not been described in European patent application 57027 but which has been carried out in connection with the present invention is: (d) Activity against barley powdery mildew FErysiphe graminis f.sp. horde) Eg.
The test is a direct antisporulant one, using a foliar spray. Leaves of barley seedlings, cultivar Golden Promise, are inoculatedby dusting with mildew conidia one day prior to treatment with the test compound. The inoculated plants are kept overnight at glasshouse ambient temperature and humidity prior to treatment. The plants are sprayed at a dosage of 1 kg. of active material per nectare using a track sprayer as described under (a). After drying, plants are returned to a compartment at ambient temperature and humidity for up to 7 days, followed by assessment. Assessment is based on the percentage of leaf area covered by sporulation compared with that on leaves of control plants.
The extent of disease control in all the above tests is expressed as a rating compared with a diluent sprayed control according to the criteria: O=less than 50% disease control 1 =about 5080% disease control 2=greater than 80% disease control TABLE II
