  • For carrying out processes (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) according to the invention, the starting materials required in each case are in general employed in approximately equimolar quantities. However, it is also possible to use one of the components employed in each case in a relatively large excess.

Such salts are obtained in a simple manner by customary methods of forming salts, for example by dissolving or dispersing a compound of the formula (I) in an appropriate solvent, for example methylene chloride, acetone, tert-butyl methyl ether or toluene, and adding an appropriate base. The salts can then—if desired after prolonged stirring—be isolated by concentration or filtration with suction. [0130]
  • The active compounds according to the invention can be used as defoliants, desiccants, haulm killers and, especially, as weed-killers. By weeds, in the broadest sense, are to be understood all plants which grow in locations where they are not wanted.

  • The compounds are suitable, depending on the concentration, for the total control of weeds, for example on industrial terrain and rail tracks, and on paths and squares with or without tree plantings. Equally, the compounds can be employed for controlling weeds in perennial crops, for example afforestations, decorative tree plantings, orchards, vineyards, citrus groves, nut orchards, banana plantations, coffee plantations, tea plantations, rubber plantations, oil palm plantations, cocoa plantations, soft fruit plantings and hop fields, in lawns, turf and pasture-land, and for the selective control of weeds in annual crops. [0138]

[0144]
  • Tackifiers such as carboxymethylcellulose and natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or latices, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, and natural phospholipids, such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids, can be used in the formulations. Other possible additives are mineral and vegetable oils. [0145]

[0146]
  • The formulations in general contain between 0.1 and 95 percent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%. [0147]
  • For controlling weeds, the active compounds according to the invention, as such or in the form of their formulations, can also be used as mixtures with known herbicides, finished formulations or tank mixes being possible. [0148]

    • (Process (d))
  • At 20° C. to a maximum of 35° C., 2.0 g (36 mmol) of potassium hydroxide powder are added to a solution of 1.52 g (12.0 mmol) of 5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole-3-carboxamide in 150 ml of dioxane. After 30 minutes, about 50 ml of dioxane are distilled off at 30° C. to 35° C. using water pump vacuum. The mixture is subsequently admixed a little at a time with 3.6 g (12.6 mmol) of 4-methyl-2-i-propoxycarbonyl-thiophene-3-sulphonyl chloride and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature (about 20° C.) for about 12 hours. The mixture is subsequently concentrated using water pump vacuum and the residue is taken up in water and acidified using 2N hydrochloric acid. The mixture is then extracted twice using 100 ml of methylene chloride each time. The combined organic solutions are washed with water, dried over magnesium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated using water pump vacuum and the residue is recrystallized from ethanol. [0168]
  • 2.3 g (52% of theory) of N-(4-methyl-2-i-propoxycarbonyl-thien-3-yl-sulphonyl)-5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole-3-carboxamide of melting point 142° C. are obtained. [0169]
  • Similar to Examples 1 to 4, and according to the general description of the preparation processes according to the invention, it is also possible to prepare for example the compounds of the formula (I) listed in Table 1 below. [0170]

  • The compound listed as Example 119 in Table 1 can be prepared for example as follows: [0171]
    Figure US20030162979A1-20030828-C00211
  • (Salt Formation) [0172]
  • A mixture of 2.0 g (5 mmol) of 5-ethoxy-4-methyl-2-(4methyl-2-methoxy-carbonyl-thien-3-yl-sulfonylaminocarbonyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one and 75 ml of acetonitrile is admixed with 0.17 g (5.5 mmol) of sodium hydride (80% strength), and the mixture is stirred at room temperature (about 20° C.) for about 60 minutes. The crystalline product is then isolated by filtration with suction [0173]
  • 2.0 g (94% of theory) of the sodium salt of 5-ethoxy-4-methyl-2-(4-methyl-2-methoxycarbonyl-thien-3-yl-sulfonylaminocarbonyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one are obtained as a colourless crystalline product of melting point 248° C. [0174]

  • 12.0 g (42.6 mmol) of 4-methyl-2-i-propoxycarbonyl-thiophene-3-sulfonyl chloride are dissolved in 100 ml of methylene chloride and admixed with 8.2 g (85.4 mmol) of ammonium carbonate. The mixture is stirred at room temperature (about 20° C.) for about 24 hours. The undissolved salt is filtered off by suction, the filtrate is concentrated using water pump vacuum, the residue is digested with diethyl ether and the crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0177]
  • 9.1 g (91% of theory) of 4-methyl-2-i-propoxycarbonyl-thiophene-3-sulphonamide are obtained as a light-yellow solid of melting point 76° C. [0178]

  • A solution of 21.2 g (90 mmol) of i-propyl 3-amino-4-methyl-thiophene-2-carboxylate hydrochloride in 60 ml of conc. hydrochloric acid is cooled to about −10° C., and a solution of 6.9 g (100 mmol) of sodium nitrite in 13 ml of water is then added dropwise with stirring to this mixture at −10° C. to −5° C. The reaction mixture is stirred at −5° C. to 0° C. for about 60 minutes. The resulting diazonium salt solution is added dropwise at about 15° C. to a solution of 50 g of sulphur dioxide in 110 ml of acetic acid containing 10 ml of a saturated aqueous solution of copper(II) chloride. The mixture is stirred at room temperature (about 20° C.) for 12 hours and then diluted with about 500 ml of methylene chloride, washed twice with ice-water, dried over magnesium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated using water pump vacuum, the residue is digested with petroleum ether and the resulting crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0385]

    • Example B
  • Post-emergence Test [0598]
  • Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone [0599]
  • Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether [0600]
  • To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration. [0601]
  • Test plants which have a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the preparation of the active compound in such a way as to apply the particular amounts of active compound desired per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is chosen so that the particular amounts of active compound desired are applied in 2000 1 of water/ha. [0602]
  • After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. [0603]
  • The figures denote: [0604]
  • 0%=no action (like untreated control) [0605]
  • 100%=total destruction [0606]
  • In this test, very strong activity against weeds is shown, for example, by the compounds of Preparation Examples 1, 5, 6, 7, 28, 30, 31, 32, 38, 44, 54, 63, 140, 141, 144, 151, 159, 162, 163, 164, 165 and 166, combined with predominantly good tolerance by crop plants such as, for example, maize.
