Description

`` iO78394 The present invention relates to new and valuable pyrazolium salts, herbicides containing these compounds, and a process for controlling the growth of unwanted plants with these compounds.
It is known (German Laid-Open Application DOS 2,260,485) to use pyrazolium salts, especially l,2-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-pyrazolium methyl sulfate, as herbicides. However, their herhicidal action is not always satisfactory.
We have now found that pyrazolium salts of the formula 10 ' _ r ~

~. ~
.

~ where X denotes an anion and D denotes~identical or different ; lower alkyl radicals, and .~ :
- a) C denotes hydrogen, lower alkyl, halogen or lower alkoxy, A denotes unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, and B denotes unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, or b) B denotes halogen or lower alkoxy, A denotes unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, and C denotes unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, or c) C denotes hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, A denotes hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, and B denotes unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, or ?

d) C denotes hydroyen~ lower alkyl~ lower alkoxy or halo~en, B denotes hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen and A denotes unsubs-tituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen, or e) A, B and C simultaneously denote identical or different halogen radicals, have a strong, and particularly selective, herbicidal action.
Examples of lower alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl, and examples of lower alkoxy ; 10 substituents are methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, isopropoxy and tert-butoxy.
Examples of halogens are chlorine, bromine and iodine.
Anions are for example the anions of the following salts:
halides, e.g., chlorides and bromides; sulfates, hydrosulfates; r perchlorates, lower alkyl sulfates, e.g., methyl sulfate, lower ,~ alkane sulfonates, substituted benzene sulfonates, aminosulfona-tes and alkylaminosulfonates.
The pyrazoles used as starting materials for the preparation of the pyrazolium salts may be prepared by either 20 condensing a 1,2-dicarbonyl compound in accordance with the i~ following schemes with an alkyl hydrazine, or by alkylating it, ; after reaction with hydrazine hydrate, with an alkylating agent such as a dialkyl sulfate or an alkyl halide to give l-alkylpyrazole, ' A, B, C and D having the above meanings except that A, C and advantageously B are neither halogen nor alkoxy:

~078394 In the case of l-H or l-alkylpyrazoles, hydrogen may be replaced by halogen in A or B, A and B, or A,B and C by adding elementary halogen, e.g., chlorine, bromine and iodine, if desired in the presence of catalytic amounts of Lewis acids, e.g., iron (III) bromide and aluminum (III) chloride, or by the action of halo-genating agents, e.g., sulfuryl chloride.
The halogenation reactions are carried out in conventional solvents such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetra-chloride, ethers and lower organic carboxylic acids.
The l-alkylpyrazoles are quaternized by reaction with at least one mole equivalent of an alkylating agent in known manner .j', , ;~ at temperatures of from 30 to 150C. Suitable alkylating agents are the ones usually employed for this purpose, e.g. lower alkyl halides such as methyl iodide, or lower alkyl sulfates such as diethyl sulfate. The reaction may also be carried out in aprotic ~ !
solvents, e.g., chlorinated, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons or ketones.
The quaternary pyrazolium salts are usually obtained in crystalline form. In reactions with alkylating agents in the absence of solvents it may at times be advantageous to fully crystallize the crude products by stirring them with lower ketones or suitable mixtures of lower alcohols or ethers.
If the anion of the pyrazolium salt is to be different from that provided by the alkylating agent, it may be replaced by means of ion exchange resins.
PREPARATION OF THE STARTING COMPOUNDS

The xylene upper phase was decanted and the residue stirred with dry acetone until all has crystallized. After suction filtration and drying, 82 parts of the desired product was obtained; m.p.: 153 to 154 C.

The crude product was cooled, pasted with dry acetone and suction filtered. After dissolution in ethanol and precipita-tion with ether, 60 parts of the desired product melting at ` 164 to 165C was obtained.

1,2,4-trimethyl-3 5-diphenylpyrazolium methyl sulfate 20.4 parts of 1,4-dimethyl-3,5-diphenylpyrazole was dissolved at 60 to 65C in 100 parts of dry xylene. 10.8 parts of dimethyl sulfate in 15 parts of dry xylene was added and the mixture stirred for 8 hours at 105 to 110C. The mixutre was then cooled, the upper xylene phase was decanted and the residue stirred with dry ~ acetone. Suction filtration gave 14.2 parts of the desired product;
3 m.p. 86 to 88C.

1,2-dimethyl-3,4,5-tribromopyrazolium methyl _ulfate 20 parts o~ 1-methyl-3,4,5-tribromopyrazole was mixed with 10.4 parts of dimethyl sulfate and stirred for 3 hours at 105 to 110C. After cooling, the crystalline residue was stirred with 150 parts of dry acetone. Suction filtration ga~e 19 parts of the desired product;

The compounds have a strong herbicidal action and may therefore be used as weedkillers or for controlling the growth of unwanted plants. Whether the new active ingredients are used as -total or selective agents depends in essence on the amount of in-gredient used per unit area.
By weeds and unwanted plant growth are meant all monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants which grow in loci where they are not desired.
Thus, the present invention also relates to a process for controlling the growth of unwanted plants, wherein the plants or the soil are treated with a herbicidally effective amount of a compound of the formula C 1 ~

The amount used of the agents according to the invention may vary and depends in essence on the type of effect to be achieved; it is generally from 0.1 to 15 (and more~, preferably from 0.2 to 6, kg per hectare of active ingredient. The agents according to the invention may be used once or several times before or after planting, before sowing, and before, during or after emergence of the crop plants and unwanted plants.
Application may be effected for instance in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions, dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dusts, broadcasting agents, or granules by spraying, atomizing, dusting, broadcasting or watering.
