Abstract

A liquid herbicidal composition containing pinoxaden and an adjuvant, where the adjuvant is a built-in adjuvant consisting of a trisester of phosphoric acid with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols and/or a bis-ester of alkyl phosphonic acids with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols.

Description

Herbicidal Compositions
The present invention relates to herbicidal compositions which contain organic phosphates or phosphonates as adjuvants.
It is known within the literature that phosphate and phosphonate materials have activity- enhancing properties when used in combination with pesticidal active ingredients. For example, WO9800021 teaches that phosphonates are effective at enhancing fungicidal activity. EP1018299 teaches that phosphate materials can act as "accelerator adjuvants" in facilitating enhanced cuticle penetration of the target leaf by herbicides. According to WO00056146 phosphate and phosphonate materials are used to enhance the physical stability of herbicidal compositions in controlling the crystallization of the herbicide.
Many grass herbicides (graminicides) for cereals require an adjuvant to develop full biological activity. In many cases the physico-chemical properties of the active ingredients make it difficult to add an adjuvant to the composition. Either because the chemical or physical stability of the active ingredient suffers from the added adjuvant or because biological performance is insufficient. It is in particular very challenging to make a biologically efficient and stable composition due to the chemical and physical instability of the herbicides used.
It has now been found that a composition of the herbicide pinoxaden shows excellent biological efficacy and chemical and physical stability when tris-esters of phosphoric acid and/or bis-esters of alkyl phosphonic acids with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols are used as adjuvants.
As a rule, the adjuvants may be added to the spray tank (so-called tank-mix adjuvants) or may be incorporated into the herbicide composition (so-called built-in adjuvants). It has also been found that the built-in level of the said type of adjuvant system allows the development of stable compositions of pinoxaden containing a sufficient amount of the phosphate adjuvant in a one-pack concept (built-in) that does not require the use of a separate tank-mix adjuvant by the end user to boost activity, and realise the full biological potential of the dose of herbicide applied per unit crop area. Graminicidal herbicides applied in a post-emergence treatment in cereals typically benefit from the use of an oil-type adjuvant to enhance activity under field conditions. Oil-type adjuvants are typically used at 0.5% of the final spray volume. For a 2001/ha spray application, this equates to 11 per hectare of oil-type adjuvant. This amount of tank-mix oil would represent a significant burden to build into a user-acceptable one-pack formulated product, due to the practical volume limitation of the product. In addition, building in such an amount of oil presents significant chemical and physical stability issues.
Conventional tank-mix adjuvant oils available on the marketplace are typically composed of 3 categories of oil: mineral oil, seed-oil and methylated seed oil. Such oils typically have a low degree of solvency power, so cannot be built into most compositions with typical solvents known to those skilled in the art, in particular into EC's, without resulting in crystallisation of the active ingredient out of solution. Such oils can only be used with active ingredients which are also oils at room temperature, or which are relatively easy to dissolve due to a low melting point.
For a conventional composition of pinoxaden, such as an EC, it is not chemically and physically possible to incorporate sufficient conventional oil-type adjuvant into a one-pack (built-in) composition. In order to achieve sufficient activity under field conditions, a 0.5% level of an adjuvant blend is needed containing methylated seed oil, co-solvent and specific combination of surfactant co-adjuvants which also act as emulsifiers. Extensive testing of a range of chemical types of adjuvant has shown that such materials cause chemical instability issues with pinoxaden, which result in insufficient stability according to regulatory accepted standards. In addition, the potency of conventional adjuvant chemistry is insufficient to build them into a one-pack product irrespective of chemical and physical stability issues.
Thus, it has been found that said tris-esters of phosphoric acid with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols and/or bis-esters of alkyl phosphonic acids with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols are a high performance oil-type adjuvant which has allowed a chemically and physically stable, active one-pack composition to be developed. Such built-in compositions are preferred by farmers because a tank-mix adjuvant is not required. This results in easier handling, especially in markets where products are sold in bulk. It may also lead to significant cost savings in manufacture because production and packaging of a separate tank-mix adjuvant is not required any more. It has also been found that the new compositions with built-in adjuvants, in particular in the form of an EC, match or even exceed the efficacy of corresponding conventional compositions with a tank-mix adjuvant.
The present invention therefore provides a liquid herbicidal composition containing pinoxaden and an adjuvant, where the adjuvant is a built-in adjuvant consisting of a tris-ester of phosphoric acid with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols and/or a bis-ester of alkyl phosphonic acids.
Pinoxaden is the 8-(2,6-diethyl-p-tolyl)-1 ,2,4,5-tetrahydro-7-oxo-7H-pyrazolo[1 ,2- d][1 ,4,5]oxadiazepin-9-yl 2,2-dimethylpropionate and also the acid form thereof which have been described, for example, as compounds no. 1.007 and 1.008 in EP1062217.
The tris-esters of phosphoric acid with aliphatic or aromatic alcohols and/or bis-esters of alkyl phosphonic acids which are useful in the new composition have been described, for example, in WO0147356, WO0056146, EP-A-0579052 or EP-A-1018299 or are commercially available under their chemical name. Preferred tris-esters of phosphoric acid for use in the new compositions are tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, tris-n-octyl phosphate and tris-butoxyethyl phosphate, where tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate is most preferred. Suitable bis-ester of alkyl phosphonic acids are bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-(2-ethylhexyl)-phosphonate, bis-(2- ethylhexyl)-(n-octyl)-phosphonate, dibutyl-butyl phosphonate and bis(2-ethylhexyl)- tripropylene-phosphonate, where bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-(n-octyl)-phosphonate is particularly preferred.
The compositions according to the present invention are biologically highly effective and chemically and physically stable. Preferably, the compositions are characterized by a breakdown of less than 2.5% pinoxaden after 2 weeks storage at a temperature of 5O0C.
A preferred composition according to the present invention contains 0.5 - 50 % pinoxaden, preferably 2 - 20 %, most preferably 5 - 10 %; 2 - 80 % adjuvant, preferably 10 - 60 %, most preferably 15 - 40 %; 0.5 - 50 % emulsif iers, preferably 2 - 30 %, more preferably 2 - 10 %, 0 - 90 % solvents, preferably 10 - 60 %, more preferably 15 - 40 %, - A -
0 -80% water and
0 - 80% oil carrier (different from the adjuvant or solvent carrier).
The emulsifiers useful in the new compositions are known in the art and comprise, for example, salts of alkyl sulfates, such as diethanolammonium lauryl sulfate; salts of arylsulfonates, such as calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate; alkylphenol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as nonylphenol ethoxylate; alcohol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as tridecyl alcohol ethoxylate; soaps, such as sodium stearate; salts of alkylnaphthalenesulfonates, such as sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulfonate; dialkyl esters of sulfosuccinate salts, such as sodium di(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate; sorbitol esters, such as sorbitol oleate; quaternary amines, such as lauryl trimethylammonium chloride; polyethylene glycol esters of fatty acids, such as polyethylene glycol stearate; block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide; and salts of mono- and di-alkyl phosphate esters; and also further substances described e.g. in "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey, 1981. It is also possible to use a mixture of one or more of these emulsifiers.
Preferred solvents which are suitable for use in the new compositions are heavy aromatic hydrocarbon blends and one or more alcohols or derivatives of said alcohols selected from the group consisting of 2-ethylhexanol, n-octanol, tetrahydrofurfurylalkohol, 2-methyl-2,4- pentanediol, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanon, lactic acid methylester, lactic acid butylester, cyclohexanol, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, benzyl lactate, N-methyl pyrrolidone, gamma- butyrolactone and dimethylsulfoxide, where tetrahydrofurfurylalkohol, benzyl alcohol and 2- methyl-2,4-pentanediol and particularly tetrahydro-furfurylalkohol is preferred, a mixture of one or more of these materials.
The new compositions can comprise additional formulation aids known in the art such as crystallisation inhibitors, viscosity-modifying substances, suspending agents, dyes, antioxidants, foaming agents, light absorbers, mixing aids, anti-foams, complexing agents, neutralising or pH-modifying substances and buffers, corrosion-inhibitors, fragrances, wetting agents, absorption improvers, micronutrients, plasticisers, glidants, lubricants, dispersants, thickeners, anti-freezes, microbiocides, and also liquid and solid fertilisers. The composition according to the present invention may contain a safener. Prefereably, the safener is selected from the group consisting of cloquintocet-mexyl, mefenpyr-diethyl, cyprosulfamid and isoxadifen-ethyl. These safeners are known and are described, for example, in The Pesticide Manual, Twelfth Edition, British Crop Protection Council, 2000 or other readily available resources.
Optionally, a co-herbicide for pinoxaden can be incorporated into the compositions according to the present invention. It is preferred to select the co-herbicide from the group consisiting of aryloxy- and heteroaryloxyphenoxy propionic acids, cyclohexandiones, sulfonyl urea, triazolopyrimidines, nitriles, thiocarbamates, dinitroanilines, benzoic acids, phenoxy acids and pyridine carboxylicacids. Of particular interest are clodinafop, fenoxaprop, tralkoxydim, prosulfocarb, triasulfuron, prosulfuron, amidosulfuron, iodosulfuron, chlorsulfuron, flupyrsulfuron, mesosulfuron, metsulfuron, sulfosulfuron, thifensulfuron, tribenuron, tritosulfuron, florasulam, metosulam, flumetsulam, pyroxsulam, 2,4-D, 2,4-DP, dichlorprop-p, MCPA, mecoprop, mecoprop-p, MCPB, clopyralid, bromoxynil, bromoxynil-octanoate, ioxynil, ioxynil-octanoate, fluroxypyr, trifluralin, diflufenican, picolinafen, pendimethalin and triallate, where tralkoxydim, triasulfuron, diflufenican, florasulam, pyroxsulam, pyroxsulam in combination with cloquintocet, clodinafop and clodinafop in combination with cloquintocet are preferred.
Preferably, the compositions according to the present invention are prepared in the form of an emulsion concentrate (EC), oil dispersion (OD), dispersible concentrate (DC), suspo- emulsion (SE) or emulsion in water (EW), but it is also possible that the emulsions are present in the form of gels, wettable powders, water-dispersible granules, water-dispersible tablets, effervescent compressed tablets, microemulsifiable concentrates, oil-in-water emulsions, oil flowables, aqueous dispersions, capsule suspensions, emulsifiable granules, or in other forms known, for example, from the Manual on Development and Use of FAO Specifications for Plant Protection Products, 5th Edition, 1999. Such formulations can either be used directly or are diluted prior to use. Diluted formulations can be prepared, for example, with water, liquid fertilisers, micronutrients, biological organisms, oil or solvents.
The formulations can be prepared, for example, by mixing the active ingredient (i.e.pinoxaden, optionally in combination with a co-herbicide and/or a safener) with formulation adjuvants and other co-formulants in order to obtain compositions in the form of solutions, dispersions or emulsions. The active ingredients can also be contained in very fine microcapsules consisting of a polymer. Microcapsules contain the active ingredients in a porous carrier. This enables the active ingredients to be released into their surroundings in controlled amounts (e.g. slow release). Microcapsules usually have a diameter of from 0.1 to 500 microns. They contain active ingredients in an amount of about from 25 to 95 % by weight of the capsule weight. The active ingredients can be present in the form of a monolithic solid, in the form of fine particles in solid or liquid dispersion or in the form of a suitable solution. The encapsulating membranes comprise, for example, natural and synthetic gums, cellulose, styrene-butadiene copolymers, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylate, polyester, polyamides, polyureas, polyurethane or chemically modified polymers and starch xanthates or other polymers that are known to the person skilled in the art in this connection. Alternatively it is possible for very fine matrix particles to be formed wherein the active ingredient is present in the form of finely divided particles in a solid matrix of a base substance, but in that case the matrix particle is not encapsulated.
The invention relates also to a method for inhibiting or controlling undesirable plant growth, wherein a herbicidally effective amount of the composition according to the present invention is applied to the plants or their habitat.
Crops of useful plants in which the compositions according to the invention can be used include especially cereals, in particular wheat, durum wheat, triticale, rye and barley. The term "crops" is to be understood as also including crops that have been rendered tolerant to herbicides or classes of herbicides (for example ALS, GS, EPSPS, PPO and HPPD inhibitors) as a result of conventional methods of breeding or genetic engineering. An example of a crop that has been rendered tolerant e.g. to imidazolinones, such as imazamox, by conventional methods of breeding is Clearfield® summer rape (Canola). Examples of crops that have been rendered tolerant to herbicides by genetic engineering methods include e.g. glyphosate- and glufosinate-resistant maize varieties commercially available under the trade names RoundupReady® and LibertyLink®. The weeds to be controlled may be both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds, such as, for example, Stellaria, Apera, Avena, Setaria, Sinapis, Lolium, Echinochloa, Bromus, Alopecurus, Phalaris, Amaranthus, Chenopodium, Convolvulus, Chrysanthemum, Papaver, Cirsium, Polygonum, Matricaria, Galium, Viola and Veronica. Crops are also to be understood as being those which have been rendered resistant to harmful insects by genetic engineering methods, for example Bt maize (resistant to European corn borer), Bt cotton (resistant to cotton boll weevil) and also Bt potatoes (resistant to Colorado beetle). Examples of Bt maize are the Bt-176 maize hybrids of NK® (Syngenta Seeds). The Bt toxin is a protein that is formed naturally by Bacillus thuringiensis soil bacteria. Examples of toxins and transgenic plants able to synthesise such toxins are described in EP-A-451 878, EP-A-374 753, WO 93/07278, WO 95/34656, WO 03/052073 and EP-A-427 529. Examples of transgenic plants that contain one or more genes which code for an insecticidal resistance and express one or more toxins are KnockOut® (maize), Yield Gard® (maize), NuCOTIN33BC (cotton), Bollgard® (cotton), NewLeaf® (potatoes), NatureGard® and Protexcta®. Plant crops and their seed material can be resistant to herbicides and at the same time also to insect feeding ("stacked" transgenic events). Seed can, for example, have the ability to express an insecticidally active Cry3 protein and at the same time be glyphosate-tolerant. The term "crops" is to be understood as also including crops obtained as a result of conventional methods of breeding or genetic engineering which contain so-called output traits (e.g. improved flavour, storage stability, nutritional content).
Areas under cultivation are to be understood as including land where the crop plants are already growing as well as land intended for the cultivation of those crop plants.
The following Examples illustrate the invention further but do not limit the invention.
Example 1.
Sample formulation compositions (% w/v).
The use of tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate as a high performance oil-type adjuvant has allowed a chemically stable, active one-pack formulation to be developed. The stability of typical compositions according to the present invention, compositions A and B1 in form of EC's are outlined below in comparison with other built-in adjuvant compositions in the following
Table 1. Table i :
Figure imgf000009_0001
Compositions A and B according to the present invention containing the built-in tris-(2- ethylhexyl)phosphate show enhanced stability of pinoxaden in comparison to the other formulation systems. Further, compositions A and B contain a sufficient quantity of phosphate adjuvant that use of an additional tank-mix adjuvant is not required.
Compositions C and F (EC's) shows a composition containing built-in rapeseed oil methyl ester. This shows excessive breakdown under storage stability testing, and furthermore does not contain sufficient methylated oil material to express the full biological potential of pinoxaden under field conditions. Similarly composition D (an EC) contains an isoparaffinic hydrocarbon known as an adjuvant material in tank-mix products such as Agridex and Penetrator, shows a high level of breakdown of pinoxaden. Mineral oil based products are additionally known from EP1062217 and they have been found to be much less effective than tris-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate at enhancing pinoxaden activity.
In WO9622020, various ester derivatives, in addition to methylated seed oils have been shown to have activity enhancing effects with a range of active ingredients. Within composition E (an EC) the incorporation of isopropyl myristate was investigated, and again this has shown unacceptable breakdown of pinoxaden.
Example 2 :
Sample formulation compositions (% w/v).
The examples of Table 2 show that stable compositions with tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate as a high performance adjuvant according to the invention are obtained also in the presence of florasulam and/or clodinafop as co-herbicide.
Table 2 :
Figure imgf000011_0001
Example 3
Comparison of (1 ) a 5% EC formulation of pinoxaden according to the present invention with 34% of tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate as an in-built adjuvant , with (2) a 10% EC formulation of pinoxaden without built-in adjuvant together with the rapeseed oil methyl ester adjuvant as a tank-mix adjuvant at 0.5% of the spray volume.
EC (1 ) corresponds to composition A according to Table 1 ; EC (2) is the commercially available product Axial 100EC.
The test plants were sprayed with 30g/ha pinoxaden using a 200l/ha spray volume. The results obtained by visual assessment 21 days after the spray application are summarized in the following Table 3. It should be noted that whilst the treatment with EC (2) applies 1 L of the rapeseed oil methyl ester adjuvant as a tank-mix adjuvant per 200L spray solution, the treatment with EC (1 ) results from the application of only 600ml of composition A from Table 1 , and this composition in turn is only 34% tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate built-in adjuvant.
Table 3: Control of weeds (%)
Figure imgf000012_0001
These data illustrate that the phosphate-containing EC (1) of pinoxaden according to the present invention matches or even exceeds the activity of the conventional EC (2) with the tank-mix adjuvant, despite the presence of much less phosphate adjuvant within the spray tank.
Example 4 :
Comparison of biological efficacy of EC (1) containing Tris-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate according to the invention and EC (3) containing conventional methylated rape seed oil as adjuvant. EC (1 ) corresponds to composition A according to Table 1 ; EC (3) corresponds to composition F in Table 1.
The test plants were treated in the greenhouse with 1 , 2, 4, and 8 g/ha pinoxaden using the formulations EC (1) and EC (3). After assessment of the injury 20 days after treatment ED
(90) values were calculated. The ED (90) value is the rate of pinoxaden which is required to achieve 90% efficacy. Table 4 shows clearly that with EC (1 ) significantly lower rates are required.
