Example 11: Preparation of 4-phenyl-4-methyl1-(phenylthio)-2-methylthio-2-imidazolin-5-one (compound 95: M.p. 112*C).
0.6 g (2.7 mmol) of 2-methylthio-4-methyl-4phenyl-2-imidazolin-5-one in solution in 50 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (THF) is charged to a 100 ml, three-necked, round-bottomed flask under an inert atmosphere. The solution is stirred with a magnetic stirrer and is cooled to 0°C (ice bath + acetone).
0.30 g (1 molar equivalent) of potassium tert-butoxide is added and the mixture is stirred for 10 min at 0eC.
A solution containing 0.40 g of phenylsulphenyl chloride and 10 ml of anhydrous THF is then run in. The mixture is then left to return to room temperature for one hour. The reaction mixture is run into 100 ml of water. Extraction is carried out with 100 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed 4 times with water and dried over sodium sulphate.
The organic phase is concentrated under vacuum. A yellow honey-like product is obtained which crystallises from isopropyl ether after purification on silica with a yield of 68% (melting point: 112°C).

Each test is carried out in the following way: a nutrient medium consisting of potato, glucose and gelose (PDA medium) is introduced in the C supercooled state into a series of Petri dishes (100 ml per dish) after sterilisation in an autoclave at 120’C.
While filling the dishes, an acetone solution of the active material is injected into the supercooled medium to obtain the desired final concentration.
The controls consist of Petri dishes analogous to the above which have been charged with similar quantities of a nutrient medium which does not contain active material.
After 24 hours, each dish is cultured by (
depositing a fragment of ground mycelium arising from a previous culture of the same fungus.
The dishes are stored for 5 days at 20°C and the growth of the fungus in the dishes containing the active material to be tested is then compared with that of the same fungus in the dish used as the control.
For each compound tested, the degree of inhibition of the fungus studied is thus determined for

These results clearly show the good fungicidal properties of the derivatives according to the invention against fungal diseases of plants due to fungi belonging to the most diverse families, such as the Phycomycetes, Basidiomycetes, Ascomycetes, Adelomycetes or Fungi Imperfecti, in particular grape downy mildew, tomato late blight and brown rust of wheat.
Generally, the compounds of formula (I) and salts thereof, will be used in the form of a fungicidal composition.
Accordingly, as a further feature, the present 20 invention provides a fungicidal composition which comprises a compound of formula (I) or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof, in association with an agriculturally acceptable diluent, carrier and/or surface-active agent.
These compositions, which can be used as fungicidal agents, contain, as active material, a compound according to the invention as described above as a mixture with solid or liquid vehicles which are
BAD ORIGINAL
a * acceptable in agriculture, and surface-active agents vhich are also acceptable in agriculture. In particular, the customary inert vehicles and the customary surface-active agents can be used.
These compositions can also contain all kinds of other ingredients such as, for example, protective colloids, adhesives, thickening agents, thixotropic agents, penetration agents, stabilising agents, sequestering agents and the like. More generally, the compounds used in the invention can be used in combination with any of the solid or liquid additives which correspond to the usual formulating techniques.
Generally, the compositions according to the invention usually contain from 0.05 to approximately
95 % (by weight) of a compound according to the invention (subsequently called active material), one or more solid or liquid vehicles and, optionally, one or more surface-active agents.
The term ’'vehicle’’, in the present account, means a natural or synthetic, organic or inorganic material with which the compound is combined in order to facilitate its application to the plant, to seeds or to the soil. This vehicle is therefore generally inert and it has to be acceptable in agriculture, especially to the treated plant. The vehicle can be solid (clays, natural or synthetic silicates, silica, resins, waxes, solid fertilisers, and the like) or liquid (water, alcohols, especially butanol, and the like).
BAP
AP Ο Ο Ο 4 Ο 5
The surface-active agent can be an emulsifying, dispersing or wetting agent of ionic or nonionic type or a mixture of such surface-active agents. There may be cited, for example, salts of * poly(acrylic acids), salts of lignosulphonic acids, salts of phenolsulphonic or naphthalenesulphonic acids, polycondensates of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols or fatty acids or fatty amines, substituted phenols (especially alkylphenols or arylphenols), salts of
C io esters of sulphosuccinic acids, derivatives of taurine θ (especially alkyltaurates), phosphoric esters of polyoxyethylenated alcohols or phenols, esters of fatty acids and of polyols, and the derivatives of the above compounds having a sulphate, sulphonate or phosphate functional group. The presence of at least one surfaceactive agent is generally indispensable where the compound and/or the inert vehicle are not soluble in water and where the vector agent of the application is water.
(
Thus, the compositions for agricultural use according to the invention can contain the active materials according to the invention within very wide limits, ranging from 0.05 % to 95 % (by weight). Their surface-active agent content is advantageously between
5 % and 40 % by weight.
These compositions according to the invention are themselves in fairly diverse, solid or liquid forms.

There may be mentioned, as solid composition forms, powders for dusting (containing the compound at a content of up to 100 %) and granules, especially those obtained by extrusion, by compacting, by impregnation of a granulated vehicle, or by granulation from a powder (the content of the compound in these granules being between 0.5 and 80 % for the latter cases), tablets or effervescent tablets.
The compounds of formula (I) can also be used in the form of powders for dusting; it is also possible to use a composition comprising 50 g of active material and 950 g of talc; it is also possible to use a composition comprising 20 g of active material, 10 g of finely divided silica and 970 g of talc; these constituents are mixed and milled and the mixture is applied by dusting.
As composition forms which are liquid or intended to constitute liquid compositions during application, there may be mentioned solutions, in particular water-soluble concentrates, emulsifiable concentrates, emulsions, suspension concentrates, aerosols, wettable powders (or sprayable powder), pastes or gels.
The emulsifiable or soluble concentrates most often comprise 10 to 80 % of active material, while the ready-to-apply solutions or emulsions contain 0.001 to 20 % of active material.
In addition to the solvent, the emulsifiable

(' concentrates can contain, when this is necessary, 2 to 20 % of suitable additives such as the stabilising agents, surface-active agents, penetration agents, corrosion inhibitors, dyes or adhesives mentioned * above.
It is possible, by diluting these concentrates with water, to obtain emulsions of any desired concentration which are particularly suitable for application to crops.
By way of example, the composition of several emulsfiable concentrates will now be given:
EC Example 1
- active material 400 g/1
- alkaline dodecylbenzenesulphonate 24 g/1
- oxyethylenated nonylphenol containing molecules of ethylene oxide 16 g/1

- epoxidised vegetable oil 25 g
- mixture of alkylarylsulphonate and of ether of polyglycol and fatty alcohols 100 g
- dimethylformamide 50 g
- xylene 575 g
The suspension concentrates, which can also

be applied by spraying, are prepared so as to produce a stable fluid product which does not settle out and they generally contain from 10 to 75 % of active material, from 0.5 to 15 % of surface-active agents, from O.’l to
10 % of thixotropic agents, from 0 to 10 % of suitable additives, such as antifoaming agents, corrosion inhibitors, stabilising agents, penetration agents and adhesives and, as vehicle, water or an organic liquid in which the active material has little or no solubility: certain solid organic materials or inorganic salts can be dissolved in the vehicle to help in preventing sedimentation or as antifreeze for the water.

In order to obtain the sprayable powders or wettable powders, the active materials are intimately mixed in suitable mixers with the additional substances and the mixture is milled in mills or other suitable grinders. Sprayable powders are thereby obtained whose wettability and suspensibility are advantageous; they can be suspended in water at any desired concentration and these suspensions can be used very advantageously in particular for application to plant leaves.
Instead of wettable powders, it is possible to produce pastes. The conditions and methods for producing and using these pastes are similar to those for the wettable powders or sprayable powders.

The aqueous dispersions and emulsions, for example the compositions obtained by diluting a wettable powder or an emulsifiable concentrate according to the invention using water, are included within the general scope of the present invention. The emulsions can be of water-in-oil or oil-in-water type and they can have a thick consistency like that of a ‘'mayonnaise.
The compounds according to the invention can be formulated in the form of water-dispersible granules also included in the scope of the invention.
These dispersible granules, with an apparent density generally of between approximately 0.3 and 0.6, have a particle size generally between approximately 150 and 2,000 and preferably between 300 and 1,500 microns.
The active material content of these granules is generally between approximately 1 % and 90 %, and preferably between 25 % and 90 %.
The remainder of the granule is essentially composed of a solid filler and optionally of
surface-active adjuvants which confer waterdispersibility properties on the granule. These granules can be essentially of two distinct types depending upon whether the filler used is soluble or insoluble in water. When the filler is water-soluble, it can be inorganic or, preferably, organic. Excellent results have been obtained with urea. In the case of an insoluble filler, the latter is preferably inorganic, such as, for example, kaolin or bentonite. It is then advantageously accompanied by surface-active agents (at an amount of 2 to 20 % by weight of the granule) of which more than half consists, for example, of at least one essentially anionic dispersing agent such as an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal polynaphthalene sulphonate or an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal lignosulphonate, the remainder consisting of nonionic or anionic wetting agents such as an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal alkylnaphthalene sulphonate.
Moreover, although this is not indispensable, it is possible to add other adjuvants such as antifoaming agents.
The granule according to the invention can be prepared by mixing the required ingredients and then granulating according to several techniques known per se (pelletiser, fluid bed, atomiser, extrusion, and the like). Generally, the preparation is completed by crushing followed by sieving to the particle size chosen within the abovementioned limits.

A granule is obtained which is dried and then crushed and sieved so as to retain only the granules with a size of between 150 and 2,000 microns respectively.
