Description

This invention concerns 2-(4-substituted-phenyl)-indazoles or -cyclopentano- or -cycloheptano- pyrazoles having herbicidal activity.
Recently, in German Offenlegungsschrift 2,165,551 a group of isoiridole-1,3-diones which are useful as herbicides was disclosed. The general formula for the isoindole-1,3-diones disclosed in the Offenlegungsschrift is as follows: wherein R may be an aryl, aralkyl or benzyl substituent optionally substituted with 1 to 5 halogen atoms or a hydroxy, nitro, cyano, thiocyanato, carboxy, alkyl or halogenated alkyl, alkoxy, lower alkylthio or phenyl group. R may also be optionally substituted with a group having the configuration —0—CH^A where A is a phenyl or a naphthyl group. The phenyl group may contain one or more halogen atoms, nitro groups, lower alkyl groups or lower alkoxy groups.
Typical of the compounds disclosed in the Offenlegungsschrift is the. compound of Structure 1: Although the compounds disclosed within the Offenlegungsschrift are active - 2 10 herbicides, the need still exists for even better herbicides. Weeds are very damaging to important crops such as rice and wheat and they decrease crop yield. In the current world situation, wherein food shortages are acute, it is most important to harvest the maximum possibTe yields of crops such as rice or wheat. Thus, a need exists for a particularly effective herbicide which will destroy as many weeds as possible without causing significant damage to desired crops, e.g., rice or wheat.
According to the present invention, compounds have been discovered which are highly active herbicides and yet cause minimal damage to certain desired crops, e.g,, rice and wheat, and especially the major world food crop, rice; The preparation and fungicidal utility of the 2-(4-ch1orophenyl)1,2,4,5,6,7-hexahydroindazol-3(3H)-one is disclosed in Takeda Chem. Ind. Paper, Chem. Abs., 67, 11542h (1967). 2-Aryl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-l-alkyl-lH-indazol-3(2H)-ones are claimed as antipyretics in German Patent No. 668,628 {Chem. Abs., 33, 51312 (1939)} and U.S. Patent No. 2,104,348, {Chem. Abs,, 32 18691 (1938)}. - 3 4 27 7 6 German Offenlegungsschrift 2,409,753 disclosed herbicides having the general formula R“ R1 in which R1 is hydrogen, an alkyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl radical, a phenyl group which may be substituted or an acyl radical having the formula —CO—R6 or R7 R8 R6 is hydrogen, an alkyl radical which may be substituted, an alkoxy 10 or phenoxy radical or a phenyl radical and R7 and R8 are the same or different and can be hydrogen, alkyl, phenyl which may be substituted or alkynyl, Rz is an alkyl radical which may be substituted, a cycloalkyl radical or a phenyl radical which may be substituted or a heterocyclic radical with 0, N or S atoms in the ring.
R3 is hydrogen, chlorine, bromine or a low-molecular-weight alkyl radical, R4 is the radical —S—R8, ——SO—R8 or —SO2—R8.and R8 is an alkyl radical, cycloalkyl radical, aralkyl radical or a - 4 phenyl group which may be substituted or a heterocyclic radical with 0, N or S in the ring.
An intermediate for preparing these herbicides by reaction with a mercaptan having the general formula R5SH is where R1, R2, R3 and R5 have the previously given meanings and Hal represents chlorine, bromine or iodine. l-Phenyl-3,4-trimethy1enepyrazolone is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 1,685,407 (1928) with utility as an intermediate for making dyes and medicinal compounds. C. Mannich in Arch. Pharm. 267, 699—702 (1929) and in British Patent No. 260,577 describes the preparation of 1-phenyl3,4-trimethylenepyrazolones.

The preparation of the annelated pyrazolones _3 is known in the litera ture; for example, the preparation of 2-aryl-l,2,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-3H15 indazol-3-ones (3, n = 4) is described in W. Dieckmann, Ann., 317, 102 (1901). The s-keto ester Z is combined with the appropriate aryl hydra- 11 43776 zine acid salt 2 in an appropriate solvent, such as a lower alcohol, or aromatic hydrocarbon, and, optionally, in the presence of an acid acceptor, such as a tertiary organic amine or alkali metal hydroxide or alkoxide and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux for 0.5—24 hours. The pyrazolone 3 is isolated by conventional techniques such as by pouring the reaction mass into water and filtering the product. The crude product is usually of sufficient purity to be used directly in the next step. If necessary, further purification can be accomplished by recrystallization, sublimation, or other conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art. This same procedure can be used to prepare those compounds of formula 2 in which _n = 5.
The pyrazolones 2 where ji is 3 are prepared by combining the appropriate aryl hydrazine with the appropriate alkyl 2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate in a suitable solvent such as toluene or chlorobenzene. The reaction is heated at reflux and water is simultaneously removed to yield a hydrazone. Cyclization to the pyrazolones 2 where is 3 is then effected by adding 1—3 equivalents of an alkali metal alkoxide such as sodium methoxide to the hydrazone solution and heating for 1—5 hours at 80—130°C.
Methods taught in Arch. Pharm. 267, 699—702 (1929) and in 2- Med.
Chem., 13. 773 (1970) are useful in preparing pyrazolones of formula 2 in which π = 3. - 12 crude reaction mixture is dissolved in an inert organic solvent (e.g., CHC13, CH2C12, or toluene), and the solution is washed with dilute aqueous base (e.g., NaOH or KOH) followed with water. The organic phase is dried, and the solvent is removed on a rotary evaporator or by distillation. The product obtained is the pyrazole of Formula I and may be purified by distillation, sublimation or crystallization from an appropriate solvent.
Compounds of Formula I where Q is iodine are prepared from corresponding aminopyrazoles via diazotization with nitrous acid and reaction with potassium iodide according to the method of Spanish Patent No. 394,208 {Chem. Abst., 83, 972834 (1975)}. The diazonium salt intermediate will contain a chloride, bisulfate, dihydrogen phosphate or other counter ion corresponding to the acid used for preparation of the diazonium salt. The required aminopyrazoles are prepared from the appropriate a-cyanocyclopentanone by reaction with appropriate aryl hydrazine in a solvent such as toluene. The overall sequence for preparing compounds of Formula I where Q is iodine is illustrated by equation A2 and Bz: Alternatively, the hydrazone may be isolated and subsequently cyclized by treatement with two equivalents of n-butyl lithium in a solvent such as THF at temperatures of 0—60°C for a period of 2—18 hours.
The pyrazolones 2 where £ is 3 are isolated by pouring the reaction mass into water, separating the organic layer and acidifying the aqueous layer with a mineral acid, i ,e., HC1, H2SOi,. From the acidified aqueous layer the desired product is obtained by filtration, centrifugation, extraction or other similar techniques.
The novel cycloalkanopyrazoles of Formula I where Q is chlorine are obtained by heating the annelated pyrazolones 2 with phosphorus oxychloride (formula 4, Q is chlorine). When Q is bromine in Formula 1, phosphorous oxybronride (formula 4, Q is bromine) in the presence of an N,N-dia1ky1aniline and dimethylformamide is used (Equation B).
The use of an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride or toluene is optional; however, it is preferred that no solvent other than the phosphorous oxychloride or bromide is used. At least one equivalent of the oxyhalide reagent will generally be used. The mixture is heated at 100—180°C, preferably 140—150°C., for a period of 1—10 hours. The - 13 4 3 7 7 6 The required α-cyanoketones can be prepared by a number of methods well known in the art. For example, α-cyanocyclohexanone is prepared from α-chlorocyclohexanone and sodium cyanide according to R. Meyer in Helv. Chim. Acta. 16, 1921 (1933). α-Cyanocyclopentanone is prepared from adiponitrile and a strong base such as a lithium dialkylamide followed by acid hydrolysis according to German Patent No. 591 ,269 (dan., 1934) tC.A. 28, 117 (1934)}. u-Cyanocycloaliphatic ketones can also be prepared from cycloalkanone enamines and cyanogen chloride according to the method of Μ. E. Kuehne, 2· Am. Chem. Soc., 81 , 5400 (1959).
Compounds of Formula I where Q is fluorine are prepared as shown in equations A3 and B3 from decomposition (especially photolysis) of corresponding 3-diazonium fluoborate (equation S3) which in turn are obtained by diazotization of 3-aminopyrazoles with nitrous acid in fluoboric acid (equation A3) according to the method of E. D. Bergmann, £· Am. Chem. Soc., 78, 6037 (1956).
A3 and B3 - 15 .37 7 6 Intermediate β-keto esters 2 are commercially available or are prepared by methods well described in the literature: G. Stork et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 85, 207 (1963). The general procedure is shown in Equations C, D and E: C.
Ri * \_y Rl /Vj o Ri Hi \ + R0C-C1-+Al/ C O «W 8 _r Λ/·θκ \_y + HZO Enamine T_ is prepared by heating ketone £ and morpholine £ (pyrrolidine may also be used) in an appropriate solvent, such as benzene, toluene, or chlorobenzene, with simultaneous removal of water from the reaction by azeotropic distillation (Equation C). The alkyl chloroformate 8 is added to the enamine 1_, and this mixture is heated at a temperature from 70°C to the boiling point of the solvent for a period of 1—10 hours. The enamine hydrochloride TO which is produced as a by-product in the reaction - 16 4 S 7 7 6 is removed by filtration. The morpholine enamine £, which is contained in the organic filtrate, is converted to the β-keto ester 2 by hydrolysis with aqueous mineral acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid) at temperatures ranging from ambient to 75°C (Equation E). The product is isolated by conventional techniques such as extraction into a suitable organic solvent followed by evaporation of the solvent. The product may be further purified by fractional distillation under reduced pressure, sublimation, or crystallization.
The use of 3-methylcyclohexanone 5a leads to a mixture of methyl10 substituted β-keto esters (2a and 2b). If this mixture of methyl-substituted β-keto esters is reacted with an aryl hydrazine, a mixture of 4and 6-methyl-substituted-2-aryl-l,2,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-3H-indazol-3-ones (k> and 3b) is produced; subsequent treatment with phosphorous oxyhalide 4 will produce a mixture containing both the 4- and 6-methyl-substituted15 3-halo-2-aryl-tetrahydroindazoles of this invention. If the mixture of isomeric methyl cyclohexanones is separated, then 2a and 2b will lead to 3a and 3b respectively when treated with an aryl hydrazine.
In the case of the 2- or 4-metbylcyclohexanones, the g-keto ester synthesis is more specific and predominately one isomer is produced, as summarized schematically in Equations F and G. 2-Methylcyclohexanone produces 7-methyl-3-ha1o-2-aryl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole, and 4-methylcyclohexanone produces 5-methyl-3-halo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroi ndazoles.
The required alkyl-2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylates can be prepared by methods previously described and by method described in Organic Reactions, , 1—203 (1967).
The preparation of aryl hydrazines 1_ from anilines is well documented - 18 4 3 7 7 5 in the literature: G. H. Coleman, Organic Syntheses, Col 1. Vol. J. Wiley & Sons, New York, p. 442 and H. Kindler et al., French Patent No. 1,419,092. A general procedure is illustrated in Equation H: in aqueous acid (HA, where A is defined as above) such as hydrochloric acid; the resulting solution is mixed with an aqueous sodium bisulfite solution at 0—20°C, heated to 50—80°C for 0.5—2 hr. and then acidified with the mineral acid to give the aryl hydrazine acid salt _l_. The hy10 drazine salt often crystallizes directly from the reaction mixture and can be isolated by filtration or by other conventional techniques. In most instances the hydrazine can be used without further purification.
Certain hydrazines used in preparing compounds defined by this invention are novel; e.g., 4-chloro-2-fluorophenylhydrazine hydrochloride is a novel compound which can be prepared by the method described above. The following novel hydrazines can also be prepared by this method: 4-bromo-2-fluorophenylhydrazine hydrochloride 2-f1uoro-4-methoxyphenylhydrazine hydrochloride 2,4,6-tri f1uorophenylhydrazi ne hydrochlori de 2-fluoro-4-nitrophenylhydrazine hydrochloride 4-cyano-2-fluorophenylhydrazi ne hydrochlori de - 19 Also useful for preparing aryl hydrazines is the method described by M. S. Gibson et al., k Chem. Soc.(C) 1970, 2106 and M. S. Gibson et aL, J. Chem. Soc. (C), 1974, 215.
Representative aniline starting materials for these hydrazines are 5 prepared as described below, 4-Chloro-2-fluoroaniline, for example, can be prepared from 2Z - fluoroacetanilide {G. Schiemann and H. G. Baumaarten, Chem. Berichte, 70, 1416 (1937)} by the reaction sequences shown below: - 20 Step A Chlorination of acetanilides in acetic acid is well known to those skilled in the art and may be carried out under the conditions taught in W. W. Reed and K. J. P. Orton, J. Chem. Soc., 91, 1543 (1907) for the chlorination of acetanilide. The chlorination of 2••-fluoroacetanilide takes place at 25—30°C over several hours (e.g. 5) at atmospheric pressure. The resulting product is 4''-chloro-2>-fluoroacetanilide.
Step B The chlorofluoroacetanilide is refluxed in a mixture of a lower alco10 hoi (50%) (e.g. ethanol) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (50%) for several hours (e.g, 5 or more) at 70—90°C and atmospheric pressure. The solvent mixture is removed at a reduced pressure of 100 to 300 mm. Hg and at a temperature of 20—50°C to leave a residue of the hydrochloride salt of 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline.
Step C After basification of an aqueous solution of the hydrochloride salt of 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline with an alkali metal hydroxide solution, such as 50% sodium hydroxide at ambient conditions, the free 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline is extracted into a suitable water-immiscible organic solvent such as ethyl ether or methylene chloride. Crude 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline is isolated by removal of the organic solvent under a reduced pressure of 100 to 300 mm. Hg at 20—50°C. 2-Fluoro-4-bromoaniline can be prepared by bromination of 2-fluoroaniline {prepared in Chem. Berichte, 70, 1416 (1937)} with N-bromosuccin25 imide as shown in the following equation. - 21 10 Bromination of anilines using N-bromosuccinimide in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride is well known to those skilled in the art, e.g., J. B. Wommack et al_., £. Het. Chem., 5, 243 (1959). Bromination of 2-fluoroaniline is an exothermic reaction that takes place at 0°C over several hours, e.g. 5 or more. The resulting reaction mixture is washed with water several times and dried with an appropriate drying agent such as anhydrous sodium sulfate. The 4-bromo-2-fluoroaniline is recovered by removal of the organic solvent under a reduced pressure of 100 to 300 mm.
Hg at 20—50°C. 2,4,6-Trifluoroaniline is prepared by reduction of 1,3,5-trifluoro2-nitrobenzene (V. I. Siele and H. J. Matsugama, U.S. Department Commerce, Office Serv., P. B. Rept. 145, 510, p.l (1950) or Chem. Abst., 56, 15394c (1962) using the procedures described by G. Schiemann and M. Seyhan, Chem. Berichte, 70, 2396 (1937). - 22 2,4-Difluoroaniline is known to the art and can be prepared by the procedure described in 6. Scheimann and M. Seyhan Chem. Berichte, 70, 2396 (1937). 4-Amino-3-fluorobenzonitrile, used in the preparation of 4-cyano-25 fluorophenyl hydrazine hydrochloride, can be prepared from 4-bromo-2-fluoroaniline by treatment with cuprous cyanide in N-methylpyrrolidone using known procedures: L. Friedman, et al., £. Org. Chem., 26, 2522 (1961).
The reaction mixture is heated to reflux for several hours and then poured onto ice and sodium cyanide. The resulting solution is heated between 50—80°C for a period of 1—3 hours, cooled, and extracted with toluene; the toluene extract is washed with water, dried with a suitable drying agent, and evaporated to give 4-amino-3-fluorobenzonitrile. 2-Fluoro-4-methoxyam'line, used in the preparation of 2-fluoro-4methoxyphenylhydrazine hydrochloride, is known and can be prepared by the method of H. Hodgson, et al_., J. Chem. Soc., 1268 (1940). 2-Fluoro-4-nitroaniline, used to prepare 2-fluoro-4-nitrophenylhydrazine hydrochloride, is also a known compound and can be prepared according to the method of U.S. Patent 2,436,100.

While stirring for 4 hours at 25—27°, 4'-chloro-2'-fluoroacetanilide precipitated. After collecting the product by filtration, the filtrate was poured over 2000 parts of ice. The resulting second portion of precipitated product was collected by filtration, combined with the first portion and recrystallized from 700 parts of methanol at -45° to yield Π9 parts of 4>-chloro-2z-fluoroacetanilide as white crystals melting at 152—155°.
A mixture of 119 parts of 4'-chloro-2'-fluoroacetanilide in 475 parts of ethanol and 200 parts of 37% hydrochloric acid was refluxed for 17 hours and the solvent removed under a reduced pressure of 300 mm. Hg to yield the moist, solid hydrochloride salt of 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline.
The moist, solid hydrochloride salt of 4-chloro-2-fluoroaniline was cooled to 10° in an ice-acetone bath and 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide was added dropwise, with stirring, until pH 11 was obtained. The resulting two-phase mixture was extracted four times; 500 parts of methylene chloride was used for each extraction. The combined organic extracts were dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent removed under a reduced pressure of 300 mm. Hg to leave 89 parts of light brown, oily 4-chloro-2fluoroaniline, nQ25 = 1.5541. (b) Preparation of 4-Chloro-2-fluorophenylhydrazine Hydrochloride .0 Parts of 4-chloro-2-fluoroani1ine was dissolved in 80 parts of water and 34 parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The solution was - 24 43776 cooled to 0—10° and 32.2 parts of 30% sodium nitrite was added dropwise maintaining the temperature of the reaction between 0—10°. After the addition of nitrite was completed, the solution was stirred for thirty minutes at 0—10°. Excess nitrite was destroyed by addition of small amounts of sulfamic acid. When a negative test with sulfone reagent was obtained, the diazonium salt was ready for reduction. For a description of the sulfone test, see Η. E. Fierz-David et al., Fundamental Process of Dye Chemistry translated from 5th Austrian Ed. by P. W. Wittam, Interscience Publishers, Inc., New York, 1949, p.243.
In a separate vessel 35.4 parts of sodium bisulfite and 32.2 parts of % sodium hydroxide solution were dissolved in 140 parts of water. The solution was heated to 40°. The diazonium salt was added to the bisulfite solution over a period of about 1 hour. The mixture was heated to 70° and 0.3 parts of sodium hydrosulfite was added. The pH was adjusted to 1.2 with 30 parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid; then an additional parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid was added. The reaction mixture was heated for 1.5 hours at 70°, cooled slowly, and stirred overnight at room temperature.
Purification was achieved by heating the reaction mixture to 70° and filtering. The filtrate was cooled to 10° at which time 4-chloro-2fluorophenylhydrazine hydrochloride precipitated. This product was filtered and dried to yield 10.7 parts of yellow crystalline solid, m.p. 223°.

The reaction mixture was dissolved in 100 parts of chloroform. The organic solution containing the product was washed successively with three portions of 25 parts each of 10% sodium hydroxide and then washed with 50 parts water. The chloroform solution was dried with 2—10 parts of anhydrous sodium sulfate and then filtered.
The solvent was removed under a reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator.
The resulting thick oil was purified by sublimation at 100—120° at 0.5— 1.5 nrn. pressure to yield 7.8 parts of white crystalline material with m.p. 88—89.5°, Preparations of other novel anilines used in this invention are as follows: - 26 Preparation of 4-Bromo-2-fluoroaniline 160 Parts of solid N-bromosuccinimide were added in portions over a 2-hour period to a solution of 100 parts of 2-fluoroaniline in 400 parts of methylene chloride cooled to 0°. After stirring for 20 minutes, the dark red mixture was washed four times; 200 parts of cold water were used for each washing. The red organic phase was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated under 300 mm. Hg to 164 parts of brown, oily 4bromo-2-fluoroaniline, n^25: 1.5885.

The reaction mass was poured onto a mixture of 200 parts of ice and 15 parts of sodium cyanide. This mixture was then heated on a steam bath for 2 hours at 60—70°. This aqueous solution was then extracted with four 100 ml portions of toluene. The toluene extracts were combined and washed with four 300-ml portions of water followed by 100 ml of saturated NaCl. The toluene solution of the product was dried over sodium sulfate and stripped to give 2.6 parts of the desired product, m.p. 71—73°.

The reaction mixture was heated until the internal temperature reached 110°. The reaction was then cooled and poured into 200 parts ice water. The organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was washed twice with diethyl ether. Cold, dilute hydrochloric acid was added, with stirring, to the aqueous layer until pH 2 was reached. The resulting oily product solidified and was filtered, dried and recrystallized from acetonitrile to yield 3.3 parts of tan crystalline material, m.p. 157—160°.
Alternatively, the above pyrazolone was prepared by the following procedure. 16.0 Parts of 4-chloro-2-fluorophenylhydrazine and 14.2 parts of methyl 2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate were dissolved in 100 parts of benzene. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 1—2 hours removing water that was formed. The reaction mixture was cooled, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator.

Using the method of Example 6 with the appropriate 3-amino compound (Example 5a), the following compounds can be prepared: - 40 43776 n Ri Y X V Z 3 H F Cl H H 3 H H Cl H H 3 H F Br H H 3 H F CN H H 3 H F CH30 H H 3 H H Br H H 3 H H CN H H 4 H H Cl H H 10 4 H F Br H H 4 H F CN H H 4 H F CH30 H H 4 H H Br H H 4 H F N02 H H 15 4 H F Formulations I H H Useful formulations of the compounds of Formula I indue granules, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders and emulsifiable concentrates. Many of these may be applied directly.
Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of from a few liters to several hundred liters per hectare. High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, contain for example 0.05% to 99% by weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of (a) 0.1% to 20% surfact25 ant(s) and (b) 1% to 99.95% solid or liquid diluent(s). More specifically, - 41 4 3 7 7 6 they will usually contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions: Percent by Weight Active Ingredient Diluent(s) Surfactant(s) Wettable Powders 5—90 T—94 1—10 Oil Suspensions, Emulsions, Solutions (including Emulsifiable Concentrates) 5—50 40—95 0—15 10 Aqueous Suspensions 5—50 40—94 1—20 Dusts 0.05—25 70—99.95 0-5 Granules and Pellets 0.05—95 1—99.95 0—15 High Strength Compositions 90—99 0—10 0—2 Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.
Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers, 2nd Edn., Dorland Books, !0 Caldwell, N.J. Suitable diluents include finely divided or granular solids classified as attapulgites, botanicals, calcites, diatomites, dolomites, gypsum, kaolinites, limestones, mica, montmorillonoids, phosphates, pyrophyllites, sulfur, sand, talcs, tripolites, vermiculite, and synthetics These synthetics can include precipitated hydrated silicon dioxide, pre- 42 cipitated hydrated calcium silicate, precipitated calcium carbonate and synthetic organics. The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, Solvents Guide, 2nd Edn., Interscience, New York, 1950. Solubility under 0.1% is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at 0°C. McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers 1975 Annual, MC Publ. Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey, as well as Sisely and Wood, Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents, Chemical Publ. Co., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foam, caking, corrosion or microbiological growth, or to mark visually the area that has been treated.
It is sometimes desirable to add ingredients to reduce the volatility of some of the compounds of this invention. Those additives can include film forming materials such as polyvinylpyrrolidones of molecular weights e.g. from 20,000 to 100,000; polyvinyl alcohols of molecular weights e.g. from 20,000 to 150,000; and polyoxyethylenes of molecular weights e.g. from 100,000 to 6 x 106. These are a few examples of film forming additives. Any material which forms a film over solid active ingredient in the formulation preparation or a film over the active ingredient when sprayed and dried from a liquid formulation can be used. Other methods to reduce volatility may include the incorporation of the compounds of this invention into resins, waxes, gums or rubbers, and then preparing formulations, as has been described above, for these combinations.
Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid - 43 437 7 6 compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example, U.S. Patent 3,060,084).
Granules may be made in several ways. For example, the active in5 gredient may be sprayed onto preformed granular carriers. Suitable preformed granuTar carriers include those suitable diluents listed earlier having a particle size range from USS Sieve No. 200 (74 microns) to USS Sieve No. 10 (2000 microns). The preferred particle size is from USS Sieve No. 140 (105 micron) to USS Sieve No. 20 (840 microns). Depending upon the nature of the carrier, the active ingredient may remain on the surface of the carrier or be absorbed into the carrier. Usually when the active ingredient remains on the Surface of the carrier, a binding agent is used to hold the active ingredient on the surface. The binding agent should bind the active ingredient to the surface well enough so that not more than 10% of the active ingredient is removed during normal shipping and handling operations. Suitable binding agents include materials which are at least partially soluble in any liquid used in the manufacture of the granules and which adhere to the granular surface. Water-soluble binders are preferred. Suitable binders include, but are not limited to, Ό water-soluble polymers such as polyvinyl alcohols of molecular weights from 20,000 to 150,000; polyvinylpyrrolidones of molecular weights from 20,000 to 100,000; and polyoxyethylenes of molecular weights from 100,000 to 6 x 105. Other suitable binders include, ligninsulfonates, starches, sugars, and certain surface active agents listed in McCutcheons' Detergents and :5 Emulsifiers 1975 Annual, M.C. Publ. Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey. - 44 The active ingredient may be sprayed as a solution in a suibable solvent, which may or may not be removed from the formulation. If the active ingredient is a liquid, it may be sprayed onto or mixed with the carrier directly.
If it is a solid, it may be melted and applied directly as a liquid. If very low strength granuels are desired, the active ingredient may be vaporized onto the carrier. Granules may also be prepared by agglomeration techniques.
For example, the active ingredient and a finely divided solid diluent may be mixed and agglomerated by techniques known in the art such as spraying with a liquid in a fluidized bed or pan granulator.

Compositions can contain, in addition to the active ingredients of 20 this invention, other conventional agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers, plant growth modifiers or herbicides.
For example, the compounds of Formula I can be combined with the following herbicides: (1) 5-tert-butyl-3-(2,4-dich1oro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazo1-2 25 one; - 53 gT'θ (2) 6-methyl thi o-2,4-bis(ethyl amino)-s.-tri azine; (3) 3-isopropyl-(lH)-benzo-2,l ,3-thiodiazin-4-one-2,2-dioxide; (4) 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and related esters and salts.
Combinations with wheat herbicides: (1) 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and related esters and salts; (2) S^-(2,2,3-tri chi oroal lyl) -di i sopropyl thi ocarbamate; (3) Methyl 2-(4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy(phenoxy)}-propanoate; (4) 1,2-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-lH-pyrazolium methyl sulfate; (5) 4-chloro-2-butynyl 3-chlorocarbanilate.
The compounds of Formula I can also be combined with other herbicides and are particularly useful in combination with bromacil {3-(sec-butyl)5-bromo-6-methyluracil}, diuron {3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1, 1-dimethylurea}, 3- cycl ohexyl-1-methyl-6-dimethylamino-s-tri azi ne-2,4(1H,3H)-di one, paraquat {1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinum ion}, m-(3,3-dimethy1ureido) phenyl tert5 butyl carbamate, 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, its salts or esters, 4- ami no-6-tert-butyl-3-methylthi o-aS-tri azi n-5(4H)-one, aryl 4-ni trophenyl ethers such as 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl 4-nitrophenyl ether and 2,4-dichlorophenyl 4-nitrophenyl ether for controlling a broad spectrum of weeds.
The agricultural chemicals listed above are exemplary of the compounds which can be mixed with the active compounds and are not intended to limit the invention in any way.
Example 22.
For industrial use, a granule may be made from 3-chloro-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H> indazole 5% - 54 43776 3-cyclohexyl-1-methyl-6-dimethylami no-s-tri azi ne2,4(lH,3H)-dione 5% #25—50 attapulgite granules (low volatile matter, 0,71 mm.—0.30 mm. diameter) 90% The active ingredients are mixed and then warmed to approximately 90° and sprayed onto the dedusted and prewarmed granules in a double cone blender. The treated granules are then allowed to cool and are packaged.
Utility The compounds of Formula I are useful for the selective preemergence control of undesired vegetation, e.g., barnyardgrass, in crops such as rice, in particular paddy rice, wheat, and peanuts. These compounds also have utility for the postemergence control of weeds in certain crops, for example, rice. Furthermore, compounds of this invention can be used as directed treatments (i.e. treatments designed to minimise application to the crop plants) for the pre- or post-emergence control of weeds in various crops including soybeans, peanuts, cotton, garden beans and row-planted rice.
The compounds of this invention are useful for the control of weeds in transplanted crops such as rice, tobacco, tomatoes, cabbage, sweet potatoes, lettuce, celery, peppers, and eggplant. The treatment may be applied to the soil surface prior to transplanting and the crop transplanted through the treated soil or it may be soil incorporated prior to transplanting and the crop set in the treated soil. It may also be applied after the crop is transplanted if care is taken to keep the chemical off - 55 the crop foliage (Table IV).
The precise amount of the compounds of Formula I to be used in any given situation will vary according to many factors including the particular end result desired, the use involved, the crop and weed species, and soil involved, the formulation used, the mode of application, prevailing weather conditions and the foliage density. Since so many variables pTay a role, it is not possible to state a rate of application suitable for all situations. Broadly speaking, the compounds of the invention are used at levels of e.g. 0.015 to 15 kilograms per hectare, preferably 0.03 to kilograms per hectare. The lower rates in this range will generally be selected on lighter soils, soils low in organic matter content, for selective weed control in crops, or in situations where maximum persistence is not necessary.
Herbicidal activity of compounds of this invention was discovered in greenhouse tests, as explained below: Procedure Test I Seeds of crabgrass (Digitaria spp.), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), Cassia tora, morningglory (Ipomoea sp.), cocklebur (Xanthium sp.), sorghum, corn, soybean, rice, wheat and nutsedge tubers were planted in a growth medium and treated preemergence with the chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. At the same time, cotton having five leaves (including cotyledonary ones), bush beans with the third trifoliolate leaf expanding, crabgrass with two leaves, barnyardgrass with two leaves, wild oats with one leaf, cassia with three leaves (including I cotyledonary ones), morningglory with four leaves (including the cotyledonary ones), cock!ebur with four leaves (including the cotyledonary ones), sorghum with three leaves, corn with three leaves, soybean with two cotyledonary leaves, rice with two leaves, wheat with one leaf, and nutsedge with three-'ive leaves were sprayed. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for sixteen days, then all species were compared to controls and visually rated for response to treatment.
Ratings for compounds tested by this procedure are recorded in Table 1, Plant response was expressed on a scale extending from 0 = no injury to 10 = complete kill. Letter symbols used had the following meanings: B = burn, G = growth retardation, C = necrosis/chlorosis, E = emergence inhibition, and H = formative effect, X = axillary stimulation. - 57 42778 39Q3SinN o o o O . o O r— VISSV3 o co o O o X in m 8(18313303 o o t o o X ΟΪ CPl *—· A80199MIN80W o o o o o o CM LU Ο SSV899V83 x rc o x co X UJ o IU IOC IOC Ο Οί SSV89Q8VAN8V8 o x cm σι o x o o o ς. m Γ—’ LU LU Q£ 3318 o in o tx.

The data illustrate the herbicidal efficacy of the compounds with selectivity for the two important crops, rice and wheat.
The test compound^ were applied in a non-phytotoxic solvent to soil pots containing seeds of an intermediate hybrid rice, japonica rice, barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), morning glory (Ipomoea sp.), wheat, wild oats (Avena fatua), downy brome (Brorous tectorum), and cheat (Bromus secalinus). In addition, wild mustard (Brassica arvensis), Kochia (Kochi scoparia), and blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides) seeds were included in some instances, as were established plantings (postemergence) of some or all of the species mentioned above. The plants were maintained in a greenhouse (glasshouse), and visual plant response ratings (as described in Table 1) were generally taken about three weeks after application. - 79 I rtDLC.

In wheat, wild oats, cheat, downy brome, and, where tested, wild mustard, Kochia, and blackgrass were controlled at a low rate with little effect on the wheat crop.
The following table, Table 3, is presented to additionally illustrate the biological activity of the compounds of the present invention. The data illustrate the herbicidal efficacy of the compounds with selectivity for rice in paddy culture.
A rice paddy was constructed using a tub containing soil and barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli) seeds, and japonica rice plants which were transplanted into the paddy soil when in the two to three-leaf stage. The water level was maintained a few centimeters above the soil surface.
Test samples were applied directly into the paddy water, and plant response ratings were taken about three weeks later. - 101 437 7 6 Ο σ» TABLE 3 102 TABLE 3 (Continued) 103 * 3 7 ? θ CJ o CL rcJ **3 TABLE 3 (Continued) 104 ,3776 It should be noted that these compounds at a low application rate virtually eliminated the undesirable vegetation, e.g., barnyardgrass, but had relatively little effect on rice.
To demonstrate utility on transplanted crops, metal containers 30 x 5 30 x 15 cm. were filled to a depth of 13 cm, with fumigated Fallsington sandy loam soil. The following weed seeds were mixed throughout the top 2.5 cm. of soil in each container: barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis), giant foxtail (Setaria faberii), jimsonweed (Datura stramonium), velvetleaf (Aoutilon theophrasti) and morningglory (Ipomoea purpurea).
The following treatments were applied as a pre-plant soil surface spray and also pre-plant soil incorporated (2.5 cm.).

Immediately after treatment the following crops were transplanted: pepper (Delaware Belle, plants 12.5 cm tall), tomato (Bonny Best, plants 10 cm tall), cabbage (Wisconsin Golden Acre, plants 12.5 cm tall) and tobacco (Coker 319, plants 10 cm tall). Four plants were transplanted into each container. The containers were placed in the greenhouse and watered by hand as needed. Eighteen days after treatment the visual plant response ratings in Table 4 were recorded. - 105 6 >5 V) in *σ in α» co φ i-3 ίΰ στ £ ο &. ιΟ στ s: I Ρ φ 4> ro »— Φ Φ ρ> Ο Ο Ο (ϋ χ ο ο ο © co ο • ♦ ο «ί σι ι© CM Ο CO Ο Ο • Ο Ο © ι— rCD CM Ο Ο * Γχ Ο CQ «— © Ο Ο · ο © «— t3 Ο (Ο $. φ X Φ 4-3 5. «β Ο ί- ιη στ στ ο Ν <0 •σ £ η ο Ο Ο Ο ο 1 X σ CM ιη φ t φ Ο ΙΛ 3 &. ο σ Ι- >τ Ο X CD φ Π3 © C £ S- Ο Ο Ο ο Ο Ρ Ο &. «Ρ“ Φ © ο -μ «Ρ Χχ rd 1 TJ υ Γχ £ •ι— <0 © £Χ Α χ ιη Φ © Ο CM ♦Γ· U.
