in a synergistically effective amount.
Moreover, the invention relates to methods for controlling harmful fungi using mixtures of the compounds I and II, and to the use of the compounds I and II for preparing such mixtures, and compositions comprising them.
The compounds I, their preparation and their action against harmful fungi are known from the literature:

The compound of the formula II (common name: dithianon) and processes for its preparation are described in GB-A 857 383.
However, the fungicidal activity of the known compounds and in particular the persistency of the phenylhydrazines I frequently leaves something to be desired.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to overcome the disadvantages mentioned and to provide fungicidal mixtures which have improved action, in particular persistency, against

harmful fungi combined with a reduced total amount of active compounds applied (synergistic mixtures), or at least to provide a useful alternative.
We have found that this object is achieved by the mixtures defined at the outset. Moreover, we have found that applying the compounds I and II simultaneously, either together or separately, or applying the compounds I and II in succession provides better control of harmful fungi than is possible with the individual compounds alone.
Usually, mixtures of the compound I with a phenylhydrazide II are used. However, in certain cases, mixtures of the compounds I and II with further fungicides may also be advantageous.
Particular preference is given to the compound la.
Owing to their basic character, the compounds la and lb are capable of forming salts or adducts with inorganic or organic acids or with metal ions.
Examples of inorganic acids are hydrohalic acids, such as hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide and hydrogen iodide, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, carbonic acid and nitric acid.
Suitable organic acids are, for example, formic acid, and alkanoic acids, such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and propionic acid, and also glycolic acid, thiocyanic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, oxalic acid, alkylsulfonic acids (sulfonic acids having straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals with 1 to 20 carbon atoms), arylsulfonic acids or aryldisulfonic acids (aromatic radicals, such as phenyl and naphthyl, which carry one or two sulfo groups), alkylphosphonic acids (phosphonic acids having straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals with 1 to 20 carbon atoms), arylphosphonic acids or aryldiphosphonic acids (aromatic radicals, such as phenyl and naphthyl, which carry one or two phosphonic acid radicals), it being possible for the alkyl or aryl radicals to carry further substituents, for example p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, p-aminosalicylic acid, 2-phenoxybenzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, etc.
Suitable metal ions are, in particular, the ions of the elements of the second main group, in particular calcium and magnesium, of the third and fourth main group, in particular aluminum, tin and lead, and of the first to eighth transition group, in particular chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and

others. Particular preference is given to the metal ions of the elements of the transition groups of the fourth period. The metals can be present in the various valencies which they can assume.
When preparing the mixtures, it is preferred to employ the pure active compounds I and II, with which further active compounds against harmful fungi or other pests, such as insects, arachnids or nematodes, or else herbicidal or growth-regulating active 10 compounds or fertilizers can be admixed as required.
The mixtures of the compounds I and II, or the simultaneous joint or separate use of the compounds I and II, have outstanding action against a wide range of phytopathogenic fungi, in 15 particular from the classes of the Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Phycomycetes and Basidiomycetes.
They are especially important for controlling a large number of fungi in a variety of crop plants, such as cotton, vegetable 20 species (for example cucumbers, beans and cucurbits), coffee, fruit species, soya, grapevine, ornamentals, and a variety of seeds.
They are particularly suitable for controlling the following 25 phytopathogenic fungi: Erysiphe cichoracearum and Sphaerotheca fuliginea in cucurbits, Podosphaera leucotricha in apples, Uncinula necator in grapevines, Venturia inaequalis (scab) in apples, Septoria nodorum in wheat, Botrytis cinerea (gray mold) " in strawberries, vegetables, ornamentals and grapevines, 30 Cercospora arachidicola in groundnuts, Phytophthora infestans in potatoes and tomatoes, Pseudoperonospora species in cucurbits and hops, Plasmopara viticola in grapevines, Alternaria species in vegetables and fruit and Fusarium and Verticillium species.
The compounds I and II can be applied simultaneously, either together or separately, or in succession, the sequence, in the case of separate application, generally not having any effect on the control results.
40 The compounds I and II are usually applied in a weight ratio of from 100:1 to 1:10, preferably from 10:1 to 1:1, in particular from 5:1 to 1:1.
Correspondingly, the application rates for the compound I are 45 generally from 5 to 2000 g/ha, preferably from 10 to 1000 g/ha, in particular from 50 to 750 g/ha.
PF 53749

Depending on the nature of the desired effect, the application rates of the mixtures according to the invention are, for the compounds II, from 5 g/ha to 500 g/ha, preferably from 50 to 500 g/ha, in particular from 50 to 200 g/ha.
For seed treatment, the application rates of the mixture are generally from 0.001 to 1 g/kg of seed, preferably from 0.01 to 0.5 g/kg, in particular from 0.01 to 0.1 g/kg.
If phytopathogenic harmful fungi are to be controlled, the separate or joint application of the compounds I and II or of the mixtures of the compounds I and II is effected by spraying or dusting the seeds, the plants or the soils before or after sowing, or before or after plant emergence.
The fungicidal synergistic mixtures according to the invention or the compounds I and II can be formulated, for example, in the form of ready-to-spray solutions, powders and suspensions or in the form of highyl concentrated aqueous, oily or other 20 suspensions, dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dusts, materials for broadcasting or granules, and applied by spraying, atomizing, dusting, broadcasting or watering. The use form depends on the intended purpose; in any case, it should ensure as fine and uniform a distribution as possible of the 25 mixture according to the invention.
The formulations are prepared in a manner known per se, for example by adding solvents and/or carriers. It is usual to admix inert additives, such as emulsifiers or dispersants, with the 30 formulations.
Suitable surfactants are the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts and ammonium salts of aromatic sulfonic acids, for example ligno-, phenol-, naphthalene- and 35 dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid, and of fatty acids, alkyl- and alkylarylsulfonates, alkyl, lauryl ether and fatty alcohol sulfates, and salts of sulfated hexa-, hepta- and octadecanols, or of fatty alcohol glycol ethers, condensates of sulfonated naphthalene and its derivatives with formaldehyde, condensates of 40 naphthalene or of the naphthalenesulfonic acids with phenol and formaldehyde, polyoxyethylene octylphenyl ether, ethoxylated isooctyl-, octyl- or nonylphenol, alkylphenyl polyglycol ethers or tributylphenyl polyglycol ethers, alkylaryl polyether alcohols, isotridecyl alcohol, fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide 45 condensates, ethoxylated castor oil, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers or polyoxypropylene alkyl ethers, lauryl alcohol polyglycol ether
PF 53749
acetate, sorbitol esters, lignosulfite waste liquors or methyl cellulose.
Powders, materials for broadcasting and dusts can be prepared by 5 mixing or jointly grinding the compounds I and II or the mixture of the compounds I and II with a solid carrier.
Granules (for example coated granules, impregnated granules or homogeneous granules) are usually prepared by binding the active 10 compound, or active compounds, to a solid carrier.
Fillers or solid carriers are, for example, mineral earths, such as silica gel, silicic acids, silicates, talc, kaolin, limestone, lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolomite, diatomaceous earth, 15 calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide, ground synthetic materials, and fertilizers, such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, ureas and products of vegetable origin, such as cereal meal, tree bark meal, wood meal and nutshell meal, cellulose powders or other solid carriers.
The formulations generally comprise from 0.1 to 95% by weight, preferably from 0.5 to 90% by weight, of one of the compounds I and II or of the mixture of the compounds I and II. The active compounds are employed in a purity of from 90% to 100%, 25 preferably from 95% to 100% (according to NMR or HPLC spectrum).
The compounds I and II, the mixtures or the corresponding formulations are applied by treating the harmful fungi, the plants, seeds, soils, areas, materials or spaces to be kept free 30 from them with a fungicidally effective amount of the mixture, or of the compounds I and II in the case of separate application. Application can be effected before or after infection by the harmful fungi.
Examples of such preparations comprising the active compounds are:
I. a solution of 90 parts by weight of the active compounds and 10 parts by weight of N-methylpyrrolidone; this solution is
40 suitable for use in the form of microdrops;
II. a mixture of 20 parts by weight of the active compounds, 80 parts by weight of xylene, 10 parts by weight of the adduct of 8 to 10 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol of oleic acid N-monoethanolamide, 5 parts by weight of the calcium salt of

ethoxylated alkylphenols) was added to the solution, and the mixture was diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Use example: Persistency against peronospora of grapevine caused 5 by Plasmopara viticola
Leaves of potted grapevines of the cultivar "Miiller-Thurgau" were sprayed to run off point with an aqueous suspension having the concentration of active compound stated below. To be able to 10 assess the persistency of the substances, the plants were, after the spray coating had dried on, placed in a greenhouse for 3 days. Only then were the leaves inoculated with an aqueous zoospore suspension of Plasmopara viticola. The grapevines were then initially placed in a water-vapor-saturated chamber at 24°C 15 for 48 hours and then in a greenhouse at temperatures between 20 and 30°C for 5 days. After this period of time, the plants were, to promote sporangiophore eruption, again placed in a humid chamber for 16 hours. The extent of the development of the infection on the undersides of the leaves was then determined 20 visually.
for evaluation, the visually determined values for the percentages of infected leaf area were converted into efficacies in % of the untreated control.
The efficacy (E) is calculated as follows using Abbot's formula:
E = (1 - a/P)*100
a corresponds to the fungal infection of the treated plants in % and p corresponds to the fungal infection of the untreated (control) plants in %
An efficacy of 0 means that the infection level of the treated plants corresponds to that of the untreated control plants; an efficacy of 100 means that the treated plants were not infected.
40 The expected efficacies of the active compound mixtures are determined using Colby's formula [R.S. Colby, Weeds 15., 20—22 (1967)] and compared with the observed efficacies.
Colby's formula:

E = x + y — x*y/100
