Examiner-G Hollrah Almrney Cushman, Darby and Cushman HERBICIDAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING BIPYRIDYLIUM SALTS WITH REDUCED CORROSIVENESS TOWARD METALS This invention relates to herbicidal compositions containing herbicidal bipyridylium quaternary salts together with a corrosion inhibitor, and to a process for inhibiting the corrosion of metals by herbicidal bipyridylium salts. Herbicidal bipyridylium quaternary salts have been disclosed in U.K. specifications 813,531 and 813,532. As disclosed in U.K. specifications 1,086,937, solutions of these compounds are somewhat Corrosive toward metals. Aluminum metal and its alloys are particularly rapidly attacked. The chloride and bromide salts, which are preferred from the point of view of cost and of convenience in manufacture, are among the more corrosive salts formed from bipyridylium quaternary cations. It has now been discovered the corrosion of metals by solutions of bipyridylium salts can be prevented or reduced by the incorporation of certain phosphorus acid derivatives into the solutions.
According to the present invention there is provided at herbicidal composition comprising a herbicidal bipyridylium diquaternary salt and a phosphorus acid derivative of the formula where R is an alkyl group of from one to 18 carbon atoms, R is an alkyl group offrom one to four carbon atoms or an alkoxy group offrom one to 18 carbon atoms, and M is a cation.
Examples of suitable cations include hydrogen ion (1-1") alkali metal ion (for example, Na), alkaline earth metal ion (for example /2Mg""), and ammonium ion of the formula (N R R R R in which R;,, R R and R each represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group (e.g. of 1-4 carbon atoms).
Examples of herbicidal bipyridylium salts include the following:
l,l-ethylene-2,2'-bipyridylium dibromide (diquat dibromide) 1,1 -dimethyl-4,4bipyridylium dichloride (paraquat dichloride) l,l '-bis-3 ,5-dimethylmorpholinocarbonylmethyl4,4'- bipyridylium dichloride (morfamquat dichloride) 1,1 '-di-2-hydroxyethyl4,4-bipyridylium dichloride l-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1'-methyl-4,4-biphridylium dichloride 1,1 -di-carbamoylmethyl-4,4'bipyridylium dichloride l,l -di-N-methylcarbamoylmethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride l, l -bis-N,N-dimethylcarbamoylmethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride 1,1 -bis-N,N-diethylcarbamoylmethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride 1,1 -diacytonyl-4,4-bipyridylium dichloride l,l -diethoxycarbonylmethyl-4,4-bipyridylium dibromide l,l '-diallyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride The names in brackets set against the first three compounds in the above list are alternative names for these compounds in which the systemic chemical name for the cationic part of the compound has been replaced by the accepted common name for this entity. The bipyridylium salts listed above are all chlorides or bromides, in which form they are most commonly encountered, but a wide range of other salts is also possible, for example those having iodide, phosphate, sulfate nitrate, methylsulfate, thiocyanate, cyanate, borate, bromate, perchlorate, acetate, oxalate, citrate, benzoate, phenylacetate, or succinate anions. Any desired salt may be used, since the herbicidal activity of the bipyridylium salts is inherent in the cation and is independent of the nature of the anion.
Preferred compositions according to the invention are those which contain a phosphorus acid derivative of the above formula in which R, is an alkyl group and R is an alkoxy group, and in which the total number of carbon atoms in R and R together is from eight to 14 carbon atoms.
A particularly preferred composition is that which contains a phosphorus acid derivative of the above formula in which R. is an amyl radical and R, is an amyloxy radical.
Further preferred compositions are those which contain a phosphorus acid derivative of the above formula in which R is an alkyl group of from five to 12 carbon atoms and R is a methyl group.
Compositions according to the invention may be solid or liquid. Solid compositions may contain for example, an inorganic salt as a diluent. Although solid compositions may be dry and relatively noncorrosive when freshly prepared, it is nevertheless desirable to incorporate a corrosion inhibitor, since the compositions may absorb moisture on storage and in any case are usually diluted with water before use. Liquid compositions may comprise, for example, a solution or dispersion of the bipyridylium salt in water containing a surface-active agent. Preferred surface-active agents are those which are nonionic. These include the condensation products of p octyl and p-nonylphenol with ethylene oxide, for example the condensation product of p'nonylphenol with from seven to eight molar proportions of ethylene oxide sold under the name LIS- SAPOL (LISSAPOL" is a trade mark). Other examples of nonionic surface-active agents include the condensation products of ethylene oxide with mixtures of primary amines derived from coconut oil or soyabean oil fatty acids, for example those sold under the name ETHOMEEN ("ETHOMEEN" is a trade mark). Still further examples of nonionic surface-active agents include the N-oxides of condensation products of ethylene oxide with cocoamine, for example those sold under the name AROMOX C15 (AROMOX is a trade mark).
Conveniently, the amount of the phosphorus acid derivative used in the compositions of the invention is from 0.01 to 10 percent of the weight of bipyridylium cation present. Preferably, the phosphorus acid derivative is used in an amount of from 0.5 to 5 percent by weight of the bipyridylium cation present in the composition.
In another aspect the invention provides a process of inhibiting the corrosion of metals coming into contact with herbicidal bipyridylium quaternary salts, by mixing the herbicidal bipyridylium quaternary salt with a phosphorus acid derivative ofthe above formula, in which R is an alkyl group of from one to 18 carbon atoms, R is an alkyl group of from one to four carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group of from one to 18 carbon atoms, and M* is a cation.
Compositions according to the invention are obtained by mixing the herbicidal bipyridylium salt with the phosphorus acid derivative, further components of the composition being either present initially or added later as desired. In the case of an aqueous composition the pH of the solution may be adjusted to near pH7 if desired, although the phosphorus acid derivatives prevent or reduce corrosion over a wide range of pH values.
The invention is illustrated by the following examples.
