In general, the processes are carried out at temperatures between 0.degree. C. and 150.degree. C., preferably between 10.degree. C. and 120.degree. C.

[0170] The processes according to the invention are generally carried out under atmospheric pressure. However, it is also possible to carry out the processes according to the invention under elevated or reduced pressure--in general between 0.1 bar and 10 bar.

[0171] For carrying out the processes according to the invention, the starting materials are generally employed in approximately equimolar amounts. However, it is also possible for one of the components to be used in a relatively large excess. The reaction is generally carried out in a suitable diluent in the presence of a reaction auxiliary, and the reaction mixture is generally stirred at the required temperature for several hours. Work-up is carried out by customary methods (cf. the Preparation Examples).

[0172] 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 there are to be understood all plants which grow in locations where they are undesired. Whether the substances according to the invention act as total or selective herbicides depends essentially on the amount used.

[0173] The active compounds according to the invention can be used, for example, in connection with the following plants:

[0174] Dicotyledonous weeds of the genera: Sinapis, Lepidium, Galium, Stellaria, Matricaria, Anthemis, Galinsoga, Chenopodium, Urtica, Senecio, Amaranthus, Portulaca, Xanthium, Convolvulus, Ipomoea, Polygonum, Sesbania, Ambrosia, Cirsium, Carduus, Sonchus, Solanum, Rorippa, Rotala, Lindernia, Lamium, Veronica, Abutilon, Emex, Datura, Viola, Galeopsis, Papaver, Centaurea, Trifolium, Ranunculus, Taraxacum.

[0178] However, the use of the active compounds according to the invention is in no way restricted to these genera, but also extends in the same manner to other plants.

[0179] Depending on the concentration, the compounds according to the invention are suitable for total weed control, for example on industrial terrain and rail tracks and on paths and areas with or without tree growth. Equally, the compounds according to the invention can be employed for controlling weeds in perennial crops, for example forests, ornamental 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 and turf and pastures and for selective weed control in annual crops.

[0180] The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention have strong herbicidal activity and a broad activity spectrum when used on the soil and on above-ground parts of plants. To a certain extent they are also suitable for selective control of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crops, both by the pre-emergence and by the post-emergence method.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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 dimethyl-formamide and dimethyl sulphoxide, and water.

[0185] 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.

[0186] It is possible to use dyestuffs, 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.

[0187] The formulations generally comprise between 0.1 and 95 per cent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.

[0190] A mixture with other known active compounds, such as fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, bird repellents, plant nutrients and agents which improve soil structure, is also possible.

[0191] The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or in the use forms prepared therefrom by further dilution, such as ready-to-use solutions, suspensions, emulsions, powders, pastes and granules. They are used in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying, atomizing, scattering.

PREPARATION EXAMPLES

Example 1

[0195] 432

[0196] (Process (a))

[0197] At room temperature (about 20.degree. C.), a solution of 1.20 g (33% pure, i.e. 2.8 mMol) of methyl 4-(3-bromomethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-be- nzoyl)-5-cyclopropyl-isoxazole-3-carboxylate in 10 ml of N,N-dimethyl-formamide is added dropwise with stirring to a mixture of 0.44 g (2.8 mMol) of 4-ethoxy-5-ethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, 84 mg (2.8 mMol) of sodium hydride (75% pure) and 20 ml of N,N-dimethyl-formamide, and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The mixture is then diluted with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution to about twice its original volume and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extract solutions are dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under water pump vacuum and the residue is purified by column chromatography (silica gel, hexane/ethyl acetate, vol.: 7/3).

[0198] This gives 0.45 g (96% of theory based on 33% pure starting material) of (5-cyclo-propyl-3-methoxycarbonyl-isoxazol-4-yl)-[2-(4-ethox- y-3-ethyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazol-1-yl-methyl)-4-trifluoromethyl- -phenyl]-methanone as an amorphous product.

[0199] logP (determined at pH=2.3): 3.56.

Example 2

[0200] 433

[0201] (process (b))

[0202] A mixture of 1.5 g (36 mMol) of 1-cyclopropyl-3-[2-(4-methyl-3-meth- ylthio-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazol-1-yl-methyl)4trifluoromethyl-phen- yl]-propane-1,3-dione, 0.56 g (46 mMol) of N,N-dimethyl-formamide dimethyl acetal and 15 ml of toluene is stirred at 90.degree. C. for 60 minutes.

The mixture is concentrated under water pump vacuum, the residue is shaken with methylene chloride/water and the organic phase is separated off, washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under water pump vacuum and the residue is purified by column chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate/hexane, vol: 1/1).

[0206] 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 reverse-phase column (C 18). Temperature: 43.degree. C.

[0207] (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 data in Table 1 are labelled .sup.a).

[0208] (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 data in Table 1 are labelled .sup.b).

[0209] Calibration was carried out using unbranched alkan-2-ones (with from 3 to 16 carbon atoms) whose logP values are known (determination of the logP values by the retention times using linear interpolation between two successive alkanones).

[0210] The lambda-max values were determined in the maxima of the chromatographic signals, using the UV spectra from 200 nm to 400 nm.

[0213] A mixture of 3.0 g (8.5 Mol) of methyl 5-cyclopropyl-4-(2-methyl-4-- trifluoro-methyl-benzoyl)-isoxazole-4-carboxylate, 1.5 g (8.5 mMol) of N-bromo-succinimide, 0.15 g of 2,2'-azo-bis-isobutyronitrile and 45 ml of carbon tetrachloride is heated under reflux for two hours and, after cooling, filtered. The filtrate is diluted with methylene chloride to about twice its original volume, washed with 20% strength aqueous sodium hydrogen sulphite solution, dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. From the filtrate, the solvent is carefully distilled off under water pump vacuum.

[0214] This gives 2.5 g (68% of theory) of methyl 5-cyclopropyl-4-(2-bromo- methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoyl)-isoxazole-4-carboxylate as an amorphous product which can be reacted further without any purification.

[0216] Starting Materials of the Formula (IV)

Example (IV-1)

[0217] 636

[0218] A mixture of 0.94 g (11 mMol) of cyclopropyl methyl ketone, 0.35 g (11 mMol) of sodium hydride (75% pure) and 15 ml of tetrahydrofiran is stirred at 20.degree. C. for 30 minutes. A solution of 2.0 g (5.5 mMol) of 4-methyl-5-methylthio-2-(2-methoxy-carbonyl-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-- 2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one in 8 ml of tetrahydrofuran is then added dropwise and, after addition of 0.2 g of dibenzo-18-crone-6, the reaction mixture is heated under reflux for 60 minutes. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture is diluted with 100 ml of ethyl acetate, shaken with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution, dried with sodium sulphate and filtered through silica gel. From the filtrate, the solvent is carefully distilled off under water pump vacuum.

[0219] This gives 1.5 g (66% of theory) of 1-cyclopropyl-3-[4-methyl-3-met- hylthio-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazol-1-yl-methyl)-phenyl]-propane-1,3- -dione as an amorphous product which can be reacted further without purification.

[0220] Starting Materials of the Formula (VII)

Example (VII-1)

[0221] 637

[0222] 10 g (49 mMol) of 2-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid are dissolved in 150 ml of ethanol and admixed with 1 ml of conc. sulphuric acid. The mixture is heated under reflux for 24 hours and then concentrated, the residue is taken up in methylene chloride and the mixture is extracted with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The methylene chloride phase is dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated under water pump vacuum.

[0223] This gives 9 g (80% of theory) of ethyl 2-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-- benzoate as an amorphous residue. 638

[0224] 9 g (39 mMol) of ethyl 2-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoate are dissolved in 200 ml of carbon tetrachloride and admixed with 7 g (39 nMol) of N-bromo-succinimide and 0.1 g of dibenzoyl peroxide. After 6 hours of heating under reflux, the succinimide which has separated off is filtered off, and the filtrate is concentrated under water pump vacuum.

[0225] This gives 12 g of an amorphous residue which, in addition to ethyl 2-bromomethyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoate, contains 17% of ethyl 2,2-dibromomethyl-4-trifluoro-methyl-benzoate and 12% of ethyl 2-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoate. 639

[0226] 4 g of ethyl 2-bromomethyl-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoate (about 70% pure) and 2.28 g (12.8 mMol) of 5-bromo-4-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-tri- azol-3-one are dissolved in 150 ml of acetonitrile and the solution is admixed with 5.3 g (38.4 Mol) of potassium carbonate and heated under reflux with vigorous stirring for 2 hours. The reaction mixture is taken up in water and repeatedly extracted with methylene chloride. The combined methylene chloride phases are dried over sodium sulphate, concentrated under water pump vacuum and chromatographed.

[0227] This gives 2 g (38% of theory) of 5-bromo-4-methyl-2-(2-ethoxycarbo- nyl-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one as an amorphous product.

Example (VII-2)

[0229] 640

[0230] 6.7 g (40 Mol) of 4-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-t- riazol-3-one are initially charged in 150 ml of acetonitrile and stirred with 11 g (80 mMol) of potassium carbonate. The mixture is heated to 50.degree. C., and a solution of 13.1 g (44 mMol) of methyl 3-bromomethyl-2,4-dichloro-benzoate in 20 ml of acetonitrile is then added dropwise with stirring, and the reaction mixture is heated with stirring and at reflux for another 15 hours. The mixture is then concentrated under water pump vacuum and the residue is taken up in methylene chloride, washed with 1N hydrochloric acid, dried with sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure, the residue is digested with petroleum ether and the resulting crysalline product is isolated by filtration with suction.

[0231] This gives 14.9 g (97% of theory) of 4-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-2-(- 2,6-dichloro-3-methoxycarbonyl-benzyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one of melting point 109.degree. C.

[0233] The logP values given in Table 3 were determined in accordance with EEC Directive 79/831 Annex V.A8 by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) using a reverse-phase column (C 18). Temperature: 43.degree. C.

[0234] (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 data in Table 3 are labelled .sup.a).

[0235] (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 data in Table 3 are labelled .sup.b).

[0236] Calibration was carried out using unbranched alkan-2-ones (with from 3 to 16 carbon atoms) whose logP values are known (determination of the logP values by the retention times using linear interpolation between two successive alkanones).

[0237] The lambda-max values were determined in the maxima of the chromatographic signals, using the UV spectra from 200 nm to 400 nm.

Use Examples

Example A

[0238] Pre-Emergence Test

6 Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

[0239] 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.

[0240] Seeds of the test plants are sown in normal soil. After about 24 hours, the soil is sprayed with the preparation of active compound such that the particular amount of active compound desired is applied per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is chosen so that the particular amount of active compound desired is applied in 1000 litres of water per hectare.

[0241] After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control.

[0242] The figures denote:

7 0% = no effect (like untreated control) 100% = total destruction

[0243] In this test, for example, the compounds of preparation examples 3 and 4 exhibit strong action against weeds, whilst being tolerated well by crop plants, such as, for example, maize.

Example B

[0244] Post-Emergence Test

8 Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

[0245] 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.

[0246] Test plants which have a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the preparation of active compound such that the particular amounts of active compound desired are applied per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is chosen so that the particular amounts of active compound desired are applied in 1000 1 of water/ha.

[0247] After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control.

[0248] The figures denote:

9 0% = no effect (like untreated control) 100% = total destruction

[0249] In this test, for example, the compounds of Preparation Examples 3 and 4 exhibit very strong activity against weeds, whilst being tolerated well by crop plants, such as, for example, wheat.
