Description

  • The invention relates to novel substituted phenyluracils, to processes for their preparation and to their use as crop treatment agents, in particular as herbicides. [0001]
  • It is known that certain substituted phenyluracils have herbicidal properties (cf. EP 408382/US 5084084/US 5127935/US5154755, EP 563384, EP 648749, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,979,982, 5,169,430, WO 91/00278, WO-A-97/01541, WO-A-00/02866, WO-A-98/41093). However, these compounds have hitherto not attained significant importance. [0002]
  • This invention, accordingly, provides the novel substituted phenyluracils of the general formula (I) [0003]

  • The active compounds according to the invention are suitable, depending on the concentration, for the total control of weeds, for example on industrial terrain and rail tracks, and on paths and areas with and without tree plantings. Similarly, the active compounds according to the invention can be employed for controlling weeds in perennial crops, for example forests, 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, on lawns, turf and pastureland, and for the selective control of weeds in annual crops. [0214]
  • The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention have strong herbicidal activity and a broad activity spectrum when used on the soil or on above-ground parts of plants. To a certain extent, they are also suitable for the selective control of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crops, both by the pre-emergence and by the post-emergence method. [0215]
  • At certain concentrations or application rates, the active compounds according to the invention can also be employed for controlling animal pests and fungal or bacterial plant diseases. If appropriate, they can also be used as intermediates or precursors for the synthesis of other active compounds. [0216]
  • According to the invention, it is possible to treat all plants and parts of plants. Plants are to be understood here as meaning all plants and plant populations such as desired and undesired wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and genetic engineering methods or combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and including plant cultivars which can or cannot be protected by plant breeders' certificates. Parts of plants are to be understood as meaning all above-ground and below-ground parts and organs of plants, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples which may be mentioned being leaves, needles, stems, trunks, flowers, fruit-bodies, fruits and seeds and also roots, tubers and rhizomes. Parts of plants also include harvested plants and vegetative and generative propagation material, for example seedlings, tubers, rhizomes, cuttings and seeds. [0217]
  • The treatment of the plants and parts of plants according to the invention with the active compounds is carried out directly or by action on their environment, habitat or storage area according to customary treatment methods, for example by dipping, spraying, evaporating, atomizing, broadcasting, brushing-on and, in the case of propagation material, in particular in the case of seeds, furthermore by one- or multi-layer coating. [0218]
  • The active compounds can be converted into the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, suspensions, powders, dusts, pastes, soluble powders, granules, suspo-emulsion concentrates, natural and synthetic substances impregnated with active compound, and microencapsulations in polymeric substances. [0219]
  • These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is to say liquid solvents and/or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surfactants, that is to say emulsifiers and/or dispersants and/or foam formers. [0220]
  • If the extender used is water, it is also possible to use, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents. Liquid solvents which are mainly suitable are: aromatics, such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols, such as butanol or glycol, and also their ethers and esters, ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulphoxide, and water. [0221]
  • Suitable solid carriers are: for example ammonium salts and round natural minerals, such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals, such as finely divided silica, alumina and silicates; suitable solid carriers for granules are: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks, such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite, dolomite and synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material, such as sawdust, coconut shells, maize cobs and tobacco stalks; suitable emulsifiers and/or foam formers are: for example nonionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl sulphates, arylsulphonates and protein hydrolysates; suitable dispersants are: for example lignosulphite waste liquors and methylcellulose. [0222]
  • Tackifiers, such as carboxymethylcellulose, natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or latices, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, and also natural phospholipids, such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids can be used in the formulations. Other possible additives are mineral and vegetable oils. [0223]
  • It is possible to use colorants, such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide, Prussian blue, and organic dyestuffs, such as alizarin dyestuffs, azo dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dyestuffs, and trace nutrients, such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc. [0224]
  • The formulations generally comprise between 0.1 and 95 percent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%. [0225]
  • For controlling weeds, the active compounds according to the invention, as such or in their formulations, can also be used as mixtures with known herbicides and/or substances which improve the compatibility with crop plants (“safeners”), finished formulations or tank mixes being possible.

  • (Process (c)) [0234]
  • 1.03 g (5.6 mmol) of methyl 3-amino-4,4,4-trifluoro-crotonate are added to a mixture, cooled to 0° C., of 0.28 g (7 mmol) of sodium hydride (60% strength dispersion in mineral oil) in 10 ml of N,N-dimethyl-formamide. With stirring, the mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature (about 20° C.), and a solution of 2.0 g (5.62 mol) of O-ethyl N-[4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-carbamate in 25 ml of N,N-dimethyl-formamide is then added dropwise. The reaction mixture is heated at 150° C. for 6 hours. The mixture is then poured into 300 ml of 2N hydrochloric acid, approximately the same volume of a 1:1 mixture of diethyl ether and petroleum ether is added and the mixture is stirred for about 3 hours. The resulting crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0235]
  • This gives 1.6 g (64% of theory) of 1-[4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-4-trifluoromethyl-3,6-dihydro-2,6-dioxo-1 (2H)-pyrimidine. [0236]

  • (Process (e)) [0239]
  • At room temperature, 0.46 g (3.6 mmol) of dimethyl sulphate is added dropwise with stirring to a mixture of 1.35 g (3.0 mmol) of 1-[4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-4-trifluormethyl-3,6-dihydro-2,6-dioxo-1 (2H)-pyrimidine, 0.84 g (6.0 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 25 ml of ace tonitrile, and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux for 2 hours. The mixture is cooled to room temperature, diluted with water to about twice its original volume and then extracted three times with methylene chloride. The combined organic phases are dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under waterpump vacuum and the residue is taken up in ethyl acetate and filtered off with suction through silica gel. The filtrate is concentrated under waterpump vacuum, the residue is digested with diethyl ether and the resulting crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0240]
  • This gives 0.70 g (51% of theory) of 1-[4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-3-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-3,6-dihydro-2,6-dioxo-1 (2H)-pyrimidine. [0241]

  • The logP values given in Table 1 were determined in accordance with EEC Directive 79/831 Annex V.A8 by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) using a reversed-phase column (C 18). Temperature: 43° C. [0244]
  • (a) Mobile phases for the determination in the acidic range: 0.1% aqueous phosphoric acid, acetonitrile; linear gradient from 10% acetonitrile to 90% acetonitrile—the corresponding test results in Table 1 are labelled [0245] a).
  • (b) Mobile phases for the determination in the neutral range: 0.01 molar aqueous phosphate buffer solution, acetonitrile; linear gradient from 10% acetonitrile to 90% acetonitrile—the corresponding test results in Table 1 are labelled [0246] b).
  • Calibration was carried out using unbranched alkan-2-ones (having 3 to 16 carbon atoms) with known logP values (determination of the logP values by the retention times using linear interpolation between two successive alkanones). [0247]
  • The lambda-max values were determined using the TV spectra from 200 nm to 400 nm in the maxima of the chromatographic signals. [0248]
  • The compound listed above in Table 1 as Example 4 can be prepared, for example, as follows: [0249]

  • (Process (a)) [0251]
  • A mixture of 0.50 g (1.5 mmol) of 1-(4-cyano-2-fluoro-5-hydroxy-phenyl)-3-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-3,6-dihydro-2,6-dioxo-1(2H)-pyrimidine, 0.30 g (2.2 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 50 ml of dimethyl sulphoxide is stirred at room temperature (about 20° C.) for 15 minutes. 0.36 g (1.7 mmol) of 4,6-dimethoxy-2-methylsulphonyl-pyrimidine is added, and the reaction mixture is then stirred at 60° C. for 3 hours, then at 90° C. for 8 hours, at room temperature for a further 12 hours, at 90° C. for a further 12 hours and finally at room temperature for a further 12 hours. The mixture is then poured into a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic phase is washed with water and then with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under waterpump vacuum, the residue is digested with diethyl ethyl/diisopropyl ether and the resulting crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0252]
  • This gives 0.20 g (29% of theory) of 1-[4-cyano-2-fluoro-5-(4,6-dimethoxy-pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-3-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-3,6-dihydro-2,6-dioxo-1 (2H)-pyrimidine of melting point 186° C. [0253]

    Figure US20040023805A1-20040205-C00100
  • 2.0 g (7.0 mmol) of 4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-aniline are initially charged in 25 ml of methylene chloride and, at room temperature (about 20° C.), admixed with 0.92 g (8.4 mmol) of ethyl chloroformate and then with 0.67 g (8.4 mmol) of pyridine. The reaction mixture is then stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. The mixture is subsequently diluted with 2N hydrochloric acid to about twice its original volume and extracted with methylene chloride. The organic phase is dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under waterpump vacuum, the residue is digested with diethyl ether and the resulting crystalline product is isolated by filtration with suction. [0256]
  • This gives 2.2 g (89% of theory) of O-ethyl N-[4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-(pyrimidin-2-yl-oxy)-phenyl]-carbamate of melting point 178° C. [0257]
