Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

The present invention uses a novel 3,4-trans-4-ethyl-3- (substituted phenyl) -1- (3-isopropylphenyl) -2-pyrrolidinone derivative and a thiocarbamate derivative as active ingredients. The present invention relates to a paddy field herbicide composition characterized by containing the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various compounds and admixtures have been known as herbicides for paddy fields. Furthermore, recently, a mixture which is called a one-shot treatment agent and which can control various weeds by one treatment has been developed. However, these herbicides require relatively large amounts of active ingredients, and although they are called one-shot treatment agents, they cannot control important weeds accurately by one treatment, and the duration of their effects is short. There are not a few cases that have. Therefore, with a smaller amount of active ingredient,
Development of paddy field herbicides that can control important weeds accurately and for a long time is desired.

[0003]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention can be used at any time from the emergence of weeds before planting to the growing season by applying a smaller amount of active ingredient. An object is to provide a herbicide for paddy fields that can control weeds for a long period of time.

[0004]

Means and Actions for Solving the Problems The inventors of the present invention have conducted extensive studies on a mixture of pyrrolidinone derivatives to solve the above-mentioned problems, and as a result, by mixing the pyrrolidinone derivative and the thiocarbamate derivative, they were each independently isolated. The herbicide for paddy fields, which shows unexpected synergistic effects from the effects of the above, can be used at any time from before weeding before rice planting to the growing season by applying less active ingredients, and can control important weeds in paddy fields for a long period of time. The present invention has been completed by finding that the above can be obtained.

That is, the present invention has the general formula (I)

The compound group represented by the general formula (I) is a novel compound,
It is produced by the method represented by the reaction formula (I) (chemical formula 3).

That is, the general formula (II) (in the formula, X is 3

Fluorine atoms substituted at the -position and 4-position or at the 3-position and 5-position, and Y represents a halogen atom. It can be easily produced by subjecting the amide derivative represented by) to a cyclization reaction. Examples of the cyclizing agent effective for this cyclization reaction include trialkyltin hydride represented by tributyltin hydride, and the reaction is generally carried out in an aromatic solvent such as benzene, toluene and xylene. .. The reaction temperature is 50 to 140 ° C, preferably 80 to 120 ° C. Moreover, the reaction proceeds by adding a radical generator such as a catalytic amount of α, α-azobisisobutyronitrile or benzoyl peroxide to the reaction solution. Irradiating with light is also an effective means. Further, after the completion of the reaction, a method of treating with an appropriate alkali is also effective in order to obtain the desired 3,4-trans isomer in good yield.

The compounds A, B, C and D according to the present invention are all known compounds, and are commercially available under the general names of benchocarb, molinate, dimepiperate and esprocarb, respectively, and put into practical use. Compound C is disclosed in JP-A-5
Compound D is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 58-5
It is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 01177.

The compound group represented by the general formula (I) has excellent activity as a herbicide for paddy fields, and is highly active especially for the millet, the eel, the annual broad-leaved leaves, etc., but slightly effective for the perennial weeds such as firefly. Low. On the other hand, compounds A, B,
C and D are effective for weeds such as millet and annual broad leaves from the pre-emergence to the growing season, but the amount of application is relatively large, the effect is inferior when used at low dose, and the duration of the effect is short.

As described above, the compounds represented by the general formula (I) and the compounds A, B, C and D may not be able to be expected to have sufficiently satisfactory herbicidal effects when used alone, and in particular, the compounds A and B may not be expected. , C, D cannot be expected to be highly effective when used in low doses.

Then, the present inventors examined the mixed use of the compound of the general formula (I) and the compounds A, B, C and D, and showed a synergistic effect which was unexpected at first. We have found a herbicidal composition capable of controlling important weeds in a paddy field accurately and for a long period of time without using harm to the paddy rice, by using far less active ingredients than when used alone.

The thus-obtained herbicidal composition according to the present invention is generally mixed with an inert liquid carrier or solid, and is a commonly used formulation form such as powders, granules, wettable powders, emulsions and flowables. Etc. Further, an auxiliary agent can be added if necessary for formulation.

The carrier may be either solid or liquid as long as it is usually used for agricultural and horticultural chemicals, and is not limited to a particular carrier. For example, solid carriers include clay, talc, bentonite,
Examples thereof include mineral powders such as calcium carbonate, diatomaceous earth, and white carbon, vegetable powders such as soybean powder and starch, polymer compounds such as petroleum resin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyalkylene glycol, urea, waxes and the like. Examples of the liquid carrier include various organic solvents such as xylene, methylnaphthalene, and alkylbenzene, various oils such as vegetable oil, and water.

As the auxiliary agents, surfactants, binders, stabilizers and the like which are usually used in agricultural and horticultural chemicals can be used alone or in combination as required. Further, in some cases, an industrial bactericidal agent, an antibacterial and antifungal agent, etc. may be added for antibacterial and antifungal agents.

As examples of the surfactant, nonionic, anionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants can be used alone or as a mixture. As the nonionic, those obtained by adding ethylene oxide or propylene oxide to alkylphenol, higher alcohol, alkylnaphthol, higher fatty acid, fatty acid ester and the like are preferable. As anionic ones, alkylphenols,
Alkyl naphthols, higher alcohols, higher fatty acids, fatty acid esters and the like are preferably alkyl sulfonates, alkyl sulfate ester salts, phosphoric acid ester salts and the like. Further, lignin sulfonate and the like are also preferable examples.

The mixture ratio of the pyrrolidinone derivative represented by the general formula (I), which is a component contained in the herbicidal composition according to the present invention, and the compounds A, B, C and D exhibits a wide range of excellent herbicidal effects. Can be expected. However, the mixing ratio of the two is usually 1 part by weight of the pyrrolidinone derivative, the compounds A, B, C,
D is 0.1 to 500 parts by weight, preferably 1 to 50 parts by weight of each of the compounds A, B, C and D per 1 part by weight of the pyrrolidinone derivative.

Although the herbicidal composition according to the present invention is effective in various treatment methods, it is preferably used in the treatment of flooded soil. The application rate is 0.01 Kg to 50 K for the mixture
It can be used in a wide range of g / ha, but is preferably used in a range of 0.1 to 5 Kg / ha as a standard.

The herbicidal composition according to the present invention may be used in combination with one or more kinds of other herbicides, or pesticides such as fungicides, insecticides and plant growth regulators, fertilizers, soil conditioners and the like. Not only this is possible, but a mixed preparation with these is also possible, and in some cases a synergistic effect can be expected.
