028 The compounds of the invention are useful for control-029 ling fungi, particularly plant fungal infections. However, 030 some fungicidal compositions of the invention may be more fungi-031 cidally active than others against particular fungi. For 032 e~ample, the activity of the preferred compounds of the 033 invention is highly specific for certain fungal diseases such 034 as downy mildews, e.g., Plasmopara viticola (grapes) and 035 Peronospora Parasitica (cabbage and collard), late blights, 03O e.g., Phytophthora infestals tomatoes and potatoes), and crown 037 and root rots, e.g., Phvtoohthora.
038 The compounds of the invention are particularly 039 useful fungicides because they cura established fungal inrec-040 tions. This permits economical use of the fungicides of the in-041 vention, because they need not be applied ~o plants unless 042 fungal infection actually occurs. Thus, a preventative ~rogr~m 043 of applying fungicides against potential fungal infection is 044 not necessary.
002 When used as fungicides, the compounds of the inven-003 tion are applied in fungicidally effective amounts to fungi 004 and/or ~heir habitats, such as vegetative hosts and nonvegeta-005 tive hosts, e.g., animal products. The amount used will, of 006 course, depend on several factors such as the host, the type of 007 fungus and the particular compound of the invention. As with 008 most pesticidal compounds, the fungicides of the invention are 009 not usually applied full strength, but are generally incorpo-010 rated with conventional, biologically inert extenders or 011 carriers normally employed for facilitating dispersion of 012 active fungicidal compounds, recognizing that the formulation 013 and mode of application may affect the activity of the fungi-01~ cide. Thus, the fungicides of the invention may be formulated 015 and applied as granules, as powdery dusts, as wettable powders, 016 as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions, or as any of 017 several other known types of formulations, depending on the 018 desired mode of application.
019 i~ettable powders are in the form of finely divided 020 particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant.
021 These compositions normally contain from about 5-80~ fungicide, 022 and the rest inert material, which includes dispersing agents, 023 emulsifying agents and wetting agents. The powder may be 0~ applied to the soil as a dry dust, or preferably as a sus?en-025 sion in water. Typical carriers include fuller's earth, kaolin 02O clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, wettable, inorganic 027 diluents. Typical wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents 02~ include, for example: the aryl and alkylaryl sulfonates and 029 their sodium salts, alkylamide sulfonates, including fatty 030 methyl taurides; al~cylaryl polyether alcohols, sulfated higher 031 alcohols and polyvinyl alcohols; polyethylene oxides, sul-032 fonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils, 033 fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide 03~ addition products of such esters; and the addition products of 035 long-chain mercaptans and ethylene oxide. ;lany other types of 03~ useful surrace-active agents are available in commerce. The 037 surface-active agent, when used, normally comprises from 1~ to 038 1~ by weight of the fungicidal composition.
7~
002 Dusts are freely flowing admixtures of the active 003 fungicide with finely divided solids such as talc, natural 004 clays, kieselguhr, pyroehyllite, chalk, diatomaceous earths, 005 calcium phosphates, calcium and masnesium carbonates, sulfur, 006 lime, flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act 007 as dispersants and car~iers for the toxicant. These finely 008 divided solids have an average particle size of less than about 009 50 microns. A typical dust formulation useful herein contains 010 75~ silica and 25% of the toxicant.
011 Useful liquid concentrates include the emulsifia~le 012 concentrates, which are homogeneous liquid or paste composi-013 tions which are readily dispersed in water or other dispersant, 014 and may consist entirely of the fungicide with a liquid or 015 solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier 0~6 such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, and other 017 nonvolatile organic solvents. For application, these concen-018 trates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and are 019 normally applied as a spray to the araa to be treated.
020 Other useful formulations for fungicidal applications 021 include si~ple solutions of the active fungicide in a disper-022 sant in which it is completely soluble at the desired con-023 centration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or 02~ other organic solvents. Granular ~ormulations, wherein the 025 fungicide is carried on relatively coarse particles, are of 026 particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration 027 of cover-crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, ty2ically aerosols 028 wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided 029 form as a result of vaporization of a low-boiling dis~ersant 030 solvent carrier, such as the Freons, may also be used. All o~
031 those techniques for formulatfng and applying funsicides are 032 well known in the art.
033 The percentages by weight of the fungicide may vary 034 according to the manner in which the composition is to be 035 ap~lied and the particular type of for~ulation, but in general 036 comprise 0.5 to 95~ of the toxicant by weight of the fungicidal 037 composition.
~15~71~3 The fungicidal compositions may be formulated and applied with other active ingredients, including other fungicides, insecticides, nematocides, bactericides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, etc.
Examples The preparation and fungicidal activity of the compounds of the invention is illustrated by some of the following examples.
Other examples are included for reference or comparison purposes only.
Example 1 - Preparation of 3-(N-methoxyacetyl-N-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-gamma-thiobutyrolactone A solution of 1,46 g (0.0135 mol) methoxyacetylchloride in 10 ml dichloromethane was added dropwise to a refluxing solution of 3 g (0.0135 mol) 3-(N-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-gamma-thiobutyrolactone in 200 ml toluene. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 3 hours and evaporated to give a solid. The solid was recrystallized from a 10:1:10 solvent mixture of ether:
benzene:hexane to give 1.8 g of the product, as a tan solid, m.p. 86-87C. The infrared spectrum of the product showed two strong carbonyl absorption bands at 5.85 microns and 6.03 microns.
Example 2 - Preparation of 3-(N-acetoxyacet~l-N-2,6-dimethylphenylamino)-gamma-butyrolactone A 13.7-g (0.1-mol) sample of acetoxyacetyl chloride was added dropwise to a solution of 20.5 g (0.1 mol) N-2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino-gamma butyrolactone and 7.9 g (0.1 mol) pyridine in 150 ml benzene. After completion of the addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at about 25C for 4 hours, then washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure to give an oily residue. The residue was crystallized from ethyl ether/hexane to give 27.3 g of product, m.p. 90-91C.

028 The compounds of the invention are useful for control-029 ling fungi, particularly plant fungal infections. However, 030 some fungicidal compositions of the invention may be more fungi-031 cidally active than others against particular fungi. For 032 e~ample, the activity of the preferred compounds of the 033 invention is highly specific for certain fungal diseases such 034 as downy mildews, e.g., Plasmopara viticola (grapes) and 035 Peronospora Parasitica (cabbage and collard), late blights, 03O e.g., Phytophthora infestals tomatoes and potatoes), and crown 037 and root rots, e.g., Phvtoohthora.
038 The compounds of the invention are particularly 039 useful fungicides because they cura established fungal inrec-040 tions. This permits economical use of the fungicides of the in-041 vention, because they need not be applied ~o plants unless 042 fungal infection actually occurs. Thus, a preventative ~rogr~m 043 of applying fungicides against potential fungal infection is 044 not necessary.
002 When used as fungicides, the compounds of the inven-003 tion are applied in fungicidally effective amounts to fungi 004 and/or ~heir habitats, such as vegetative hosts and nonvegeta-005 tive hosts, e.g., animal products. The amount used will, of 006 course, depend on several factors such as the host, the type of 007 fungus and the particular compound of the invention. As with 008 most pesticidal compounds, the fungicides of the invention are 009 not usually applied full strength, but are generally incorpo-010 rated with conventional, biologically inert extenders or 011 carriers normally employed for facilitating dispersion of 012 active fungicidal compounds, recognizing that the formulation 013 and mode of application may affect the activity of the fungi-01~ cide. Thus, the fungicides of the invention may be formulated 015 and applied as granules, as powdery dusts, as wettable powders, 016 as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions, or as any of 017 several other known types of formulations, depending on the 018 desired mode of application.
019 i~ettable powders are in the form of finely divided 020 particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant.
021 These compositions normally contain from about 5-80~ fungicide, 022 and the rest inert material, which includes dispersing agents, 023 emulsifying agents and wetting agents. The powder may be 0~ applied to the soil as a dry dust, or preferably as a sus?en-025 sion in water. Typical carriers include fuller's earth, kaolin 02O clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, wettable, inorganic 027 diluents. Typical wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents 02~ include, for example: the aryl and alkylaryl sulfonates and 029 their sodium salts, alkylamide sulfonates, including fatty 030 methyl taurides; al~cylaryl polyether alcohols, sulfated higher 031 alcohols and polyvinyl alcohols; polyethylene oxides, sul-032 fonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils, 033 fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide 03~ addition products of such esters; and the addition products of 035 long-chain mercaptans and ethylene oxide. ;lany other types of 03~ useful surrace-active agents are available in commerce. The 037 surface-active agent, when used, normally comprises from 1~ to 038 1~ by weight of the fungicidal composition.
7~
002 Dusts are freely flowing admixtures of the active 003 fungicide with finely divided solids such as talc, natural 004 clays, kieselguhr, pyroehyllite, chalk, diatomaceous earths, 005 calcium phosphates, calcium and masnesium carbonates, sulfur, 006 lime, flours, and other organic and inorganic solids which act 007 as dispersants and car~iers for the toxicant. These finely 008 divided solids have an average particle size of less than about 009 50 microns. A typical dust formulation useful herein contains 010 75~ silica and 25% of the toxicant.
011 Useful liquid concentrates include the emulsifia~le 012 concentrates, which are homogeneous liquid or paste composi-013 tions which are readily dispersed in water or other dispersant, 014 and may consist entirely of the fungicide with a liquid or 015 solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier 0~6 such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, and other 017 nonvolatile organic solvents. For application, these concen-018 trates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and are 019 normally applied as a spray to the araa to be treated.
020 Other useful formulations for fungicidal applications 021 include si~ple solutions of the active fungicide in a disper-022 sant in which it is completely soluble at the desired con-023 centration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or 02~ other organic solvents. Granular ~ormulations, wherein the 025 fungicide is carried on relatively coarse particles, are of 026 particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration 027 of cover-crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, ty2ically aerosols 028 wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided 029 form as a result of vaporization of a low-boiling dis~ersant 030 solvent carrier, such as the Freons, may also be used. All o~
031 those techniques for formulatfng and applying funsicides are 032 well known in the art.
033 The percentages by weight of the fungicide may vary 034 according to the manner in which the composition is to be 035 ap~lied and the particular type of for~ulation, but in general 036 comprise 0.5 to 95~ of the toxicant by weight of the fungicidal 037 composition.
~15~71~3 The fungicidal compositions may be formulated and applied with other active ingredients, including other fungicides, insecticides, nematocides, bactericides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, etc.
