Abstract
Crystalline modification I of Spinosad characterised by X-ray powder diffraction, IR spectrometry and differential scanning calorimetry. Also claimed is a method for preparing the crystalline modification of Spinosad, the method comprising the steps of: i) dissolving Spinosad in a solvent system to form a Spinosad solution; ii) precipitating the crystalline modification of Spinosad from the Spinosad solution; and iii) isolating the precipitated crystalline modification of Spinosad. Preferably, the solvent system comprises a carbonate, e.g. ethylene carbonate and/or dimethyl carbonate. The crystallisation may be promoted by adding seed crystals of the desired crystalline modification and/or by cooling the solvent system. Further claimed is a composition comprising the aforementioned crystalline form of spinosad and at least one auxiliary (e.g. surfactant, diluent, inert filler). Such a composition may be a suspension concentrate. The crystalline modification of spinosad may be used for the control of insects and mites.
Description
A CRYSTALLINE FORM OF SP INOSAD, A PROCESS FOR ITS PREPARATION AND USE OF THE SAME The present invention relates to a crystalline form of Spinosad, to its preparation processes and to its use in agrochemical preparations.
Spinosad is a broad spectrum insecticide and miticide. It was developed and first introduced as a commercial product by DOW in 1995. Spinosad is entirely derived through fermentation of the soil bacteria Saccharopolyspora spinosa. Spinosad is active through a novel mode of action, primarily targeting binding sites on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) of the insect nervous system.
Spinosad is used for the protection of a wide variety of commercial crops, such as maize, soybean, cotton, various fruits, various vegetables, such as potato, rice and turf, in particular for the control of bollworm, tobacco budworm, armyworms and loopers. Spinosad exhibits a low toxicity and an environmental profile similar to that of most biological insecticides. As a result Spinosad is suitable for Integrated Pest (IPM) and Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) programs.
Spinosad is a combination of two spinosoids having the molecular formulae Cal H65NOici (Spinosyn A) and C42H67NO10 (Spinosyn D), and the chemical names (2R, 3aS, 5aR, 5bS, 9S, 13S, 14R, 16aS, 16bR)-2-(6-deoxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-a- L-mannopyranosyloxy)-13-(4-dimethylamino-2,3,4,6-tetradeoxy-p-D- erythropyranosyloxy)-9-ethy1-2,3,3a,5a,5b, 6,7,9,10,11,12, 13,14,15, 16a,16bhexadecahydro-14-methyl-1H-as-indaceno[3,2-d]oxacyclododecine-7, 15-dione and (25,3aR,5aS,5bS,9S, 13S, 14R,16aS, 16 b5)-2-(6-deoxy-2,3,4-tri-O-m ethyl-a-L- mannopyranosyloxy)-13-(4-dimethy lamino-2, 3,4, 6-tetradeoxy-p-D- erythropyranosyloxy)-9-ethyl-2,3,3a,5a,5b,6,7,9,10,11,12, 13, 14, 15,16a,16b- hexadecahydro-4, 14-dim ethy1-1H-as-indaceno[3,2-d] oxacyclododecine-7,15-dione. Spinosad typically contains Spinosyn A and Spinosyn D present in the proportions from 50 to 95% by weight Spinosyn A and 5 to 50% by weight Spinosyn D. Commercial formulations of Spinosad typically employ Spinosyn A and Spinosyn D in a weight ratio of 85:15.
Spinosad has the chemical structures: wherein Spinosad A: R=H and Spinosad D: R=CH3.
The commercially available Spinosad is typically manufactured by the process described in EP 1 062 345 and is present in an amorphous state. It has been found that Spinosad in an amorphous state exhibits a high tendency to aggregate when formulated, especially during prolonged periods of storage. As a result, commercially available Spinosad is not well suited for being used in an economical formulation. There is a need to provide a technique for improving the formulation of Spinosad, especially to improve its storage stability.
There has now been found a new and stable crystalline form of Spinosad, which exhibits significantly improved properties. In particular, the new crystalline form of Spinosad exhibits an increased stability and reduced tendency to aggregate when formulated, allowing formulations to be stored for prolonged periods of time without degradation and loss of efficacy.

It has been found that the crystalline modification I of Spinosad exhibits a significant improvement in its storage stability compared with known forms of Spinosad, which in turn significantly reduces the aggregation problem encountered with current commercially available formulations. In addition, it has been found that the crystalline modification I of Spinosad exhibits a high degree of stability when formulated compared to amorphous Spinosad prepared in accordance with the disclosure of EP 1 062 345. In particular, the crystalline modification exhibits a very low tendency to aggregate when formulated. This in turn allows the preparation of commercial formulations, such as suspension concentrates (SC) having improved properties, including increased stability and improved efficacy. Further, by virtue of having good stability properties, the crystalline modification I of Spinosad provides an advantageously long storage period for formulations.

EXAMPLES
Example 1: Preparation of amorphous Spinosad in accordance with the disclosure of EP 1 062 345, Example 1 Vegetative cultures of S. spinosa strain NRRL18538 were each grown in 50 ml of CSM medium (trypticase soy broth 30 g/I, yeast extract 3 g/I, magnesium sulfate 2 g/I, glucose 5 g/I, maltose 4 g/1) in 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks, shaken at 300 rpm at 30°C for 48h. Fermentation cultures contained a 1 ml inoculum of this vegetative culture in 7 ml of INF202, a proprietary medium similar to that described in Strobel & Nakatsukasa (1993).
The cultures were grown in 30 ml plastic bottles arranged in 10x10 modules, shaken at 300 rpm in a 30°C room for 3, 5 or 7 days. Broths were extracted with 4 volumes of acetonitrile, then analyzed for Spinosad A + D by isocratic high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) through a C-18 reversed-phase column (Strobel and Nakatsukasa, 1993). The amount of spinosyns present was determined from absorbance at 250 nm. For each time point, Spinosad A + D were determined from 10 fermentation bottles.
Two representative samples from each set of replicates were also analyzed by a slightly modified HP LC system for pseudoaglycone (PSA), the spinosyn precursor which lacks forosamine. In this system the mobile phase is 35:35:30 acetonitrile/methano1/0.5% (w/v) aqueous ammonium acetate (R. Wjayaratne, unpublished).
The resulting Spinosad product was examined using X-ray powder diffraction. As shown in Figure 4, the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the resulting Spinosad product has no significant signals, which indicates the Spinosad product prepared in accordance with the disclosure of EP 1 062 345 is amorphous.
Example 2: Preparation of the crystalline modification I of Spinosad Crystallization from ethylene carbonate g of the amorphous Spinosad product prepared in Example 1 was taken in a 3-neck round bottom flask along with 50 ml of ethylene carbonate and the resulting slurry was heated to 85°C while stirring, until the Spinosad had dissolved completely. The resulting solution was slowly cooled to a temperature of from 20 to 25°C at a rate of 2°C/min. Upon cooling, fine crystals were formed and the resulting heterogeneous mixture was stirred at 20°C for 2h. Thereafter, the resulting slurry was filtered to isolate the solid material, which was washed with 3 ml of ethylene carbonate at 20°C. The filtered crystals were dried under vacuum at 40°C.
The crystalline product obtained had a purity of >98% and the yield was found to be not less than 98%.
The resulting crystals were analyzed by IR spectrometry, X-ray powder diffraction and DSC and found out to be a crystalline modification I of Spinosad. 15 The X-ray powder diffractogram, IR spectogram and DSC thermogram are as shown in Figure 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
