2. Description of the Related Art In water systems such as cooling water systems of various factory facilities and pulp and paper manufacturing systems, slimes of various fungi and animals and plants adhere, causing various problems.

Conventionally, in order to prevent problems caused by slime and the like, antibacterial agents (slime control agents) have generally been used because the treatment method is relatively simple and inexpensive. Therefore, 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (hereinafter referred to as "
It is abbreviated as "Cl-MIT". ) has excellent antibacterial activity, and is widely used as a slime control agent, bactericide, algaecide, and fungicide for various water systems such as cooling water systems, paper pulp, and swimming pools.

[0004] This Cl-MIT is generally
It is produced by a method in which thioketoamide is halogenated in an inert organic ester solvent such as acetic acid ester, and β-substituted thiocyanoacrylamide or thiosulfate acrylamide is treated with acid to obtain an isothiazolone, which is then further halogenated ( Special Publication No. 46-21240)
.

[0005]

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, the above ■
In both methods of and (1), Cl-MIT
It is not possible to selectively obtain only 2-methyl-MIT, and as a by-product, 2-methyl-
Only 4-isothiazolin-3-one (hereinafter abbreviated as "MIT") mixed therein can be obtained.

Moreover, with conventional techniques, it is not possible to selectively extract only Cl-MIT from the reaction product mixture;
The reality is that MIT, which has poor antibacterial activity, is unavoidably used in a mixed state.

On the other hand, although such Cl-MIT is an antibacterial agent having a certain degree of excellent antibacterial activity, it is extremely irritating to the skin and requires great care in handling. Furthermore, when used in water, it reacts with organic substances (amines, reducing substances, etc.) in the water and loses its activity, making it difficult to maintain antibacterial activity for a long period of time. Moreover, since it is easily soluble in water, when used in combination with underwater antifouling paint,
Since it quickly dissolves into water, it has the problem that its antifouling effect cannot be maintained for a long period of time.

[0008] As described above, the water-soluble antibacterial agents that have been commonly used have extremely disadvantages in terms of handling, antibacterial effects, etc. due to toxicity, decreased antibacterial activity, solubility in water, etc. Met.

The same can be said about organic solvents such as ethanol which have a bactericidal effect and natural essential oils such as cineole which is an aromatic agent. For example, natural essential oils such as 1,8-cineole (hereinafter abbreviated as "cineole") can be used as fragrances, antibacterial agents, and fungicides, but many natural essential oils are highly volatile, and their effectiveness was difficult to maintain for a long period of time. Therefore, it is desired to develop sustained-release insecticides and sustained-release fragrances that can maintain their insecticidal effects and fragrance for a long period of time and are easy to handle.

[0010] In order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, the present invention provides a host compound and a host compound for producing clathrate compounds that can provide excellent sustained-release antibacterial agents, sustained-release insecticides, and sustained-release fragrances. The object of the present invention is to provide an clathrate compound using this host compound.

[0011]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The host compound for producing an clathrate compound according to claim 1 is a compound containing a triphenylcarbinol group (hereinafter referred to as a "triphenylcarbinol compound") represented by the following formula. ).

[0021]

[C6]

The host compound of the present invention can be used in various organic solvents,
It is useful as a host compound that can form stable clathrate compounds with disinfectants, fragrances, etc. as guest compounds, and is intended to maintain its effects for a long period of time, such as perfumes, agricultural chemicals, and industrial fungicides. field, or pH, heat,
It has a wide range of uses, including as a stabilizer for stabilizing compounds that are unstable to ultraviolet light by clathrating them, and also for separating and purifying various compounds by utilizing its selective clathration ability. Extremely useful.

The clathrate compound of the present invention includes the above-mentioned triphenylcarbinol compound as a host compound and an organic solvent, natural essential oil, or organic fungicide as a guest compound.

[0028] The clathrate compound in which the organic fungicide is included in the host compound can be in a solid state. Since the bactericidal component gradually dissolves into water from the clathrate compound, its antibacterial activity can be maintained for an extremely long period of time. Furthermore, by clathrating the disinfectant, its toxicity, skin irritation, etc. are reduced. Moreover, it is also prevented from reducing antibacterial activity due to reaction with other substances during use.

Therefore, the resulting clathrate compound can be effectively used as a sustained-release antibacterial agent that can maintain antibacterial activity for an extremely long period of time.

[0030] On the other hand, organic solvents and natural essential oils also become solid when they are made into clathrate compounds with the host compound of the present invention. For this reason, for example, liquid fragrances have the disadvantage that the liquid spills if the container falls over, but the clathrate compound of the present invention eliminates such concerns and is easy to handle.

[0031] Furthermore, by clathrating the aroma component or the insecticidal component, the aroma component etc. gradually volatilize from the clathrate compound and the volatilization rate decreases, thereby increasing the sustainability of the aroma and insecticidal effect. By changing the particle size of this clathrate compound, the contact area with the atmosphere can be adjusted, and the rate of volatilization of aroma components and insecticidal components can be adjusted. Furthermore, it is easy to mold into various shapes.

Furthermore, the host compound of the present invention is useful for pulverizing, stabilizing, concentrating, etc. the guest compound, and also utilizes selective inclusion of the guest compound as a host compound. It is also useful for separation and purification.
