Description

=

Fungicidal mixtures The present invention relates to a fungicidal mixture which com-prises a) the oxime ether carboxylic ester of the formula Ia or Ib ~ I CH3 Q C'~4 C=NOCH3 C=NOCH3 Io2CH3 CH3 C02CH3 Ia Ib and b) a dithiocarbamate (II) selected from the group consisting of - manganese ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (zinc complex) (IIa), - manganese ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (IIb), - zinc ammoniate ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (Iic) and - zinc ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (IId) in a synergistically effective amount.

The present invention also relates to methods for controlling harmful fungi using mixtures of compounds I and II and to the use of compounds I and compounds II for producing mixtures of this type.

The compounds of the formula I (or Ia and Ib), their preparation and their action against harmful fungi is disclosed in the liter-ature (EP-A 253 213).

Likewise known are the dithiocarbamates II (IIa: common name:
mancozeb, US-A 3,379,610; IIb: common name: maneb, US-A
2,504,404; IIc: former common name: metiram, US-A 3,248,400; IId:
common name: zineb, US-A 2,457,674), their preparation and their action against harmful fungi. -It is an object of the present invention, with a view to reducing the application rates and improving the spectrum of action of the known compounds, to provide mixtures which have an improved effect ori harmful fungi while the total amount of active ingredi-ents applied is reduced (synergistic mixtures).

We have found that this object is achieved by the mixtures de-fined at the outset. We have also found that harmful fungi can be controlled better on simultaneous conjoint or separate use of the compounds I and compounds II or on use of the compounds I and compounds II successively than with the individual compounds.

The compounds of the formula I can have the E or Z configuration for the C=X double bond (relative to the carboxyl group). Accord-ingly, they can each be used either as pure E or Z isomer or as E/Z isomer mixture in the mixture according to the invention. The E/Z isomer mixture or the E isomer is preferably used, and the E
isomer is particularly preferred.

The pure active ingredients I and II are prefe.rably employed in the preparation of the mixtures, which can as required be admixed with further active ingredients against harmful fungi or other pests such as insects, arachnids or nematodes, or else herbicidal or growth-regulating active ingredients or fertilizers.

The mixtures of compounds I and II and simultaneous conjoint or separate use of the compounds I and II are distinguished by an excellent action against a wide range of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular from the class of Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes.
Some of them have systemic activity and can therefore also be used as foliar and soil fungicides.

They are particularly important for controlling a large number of fungi on a variety of crop plants such as cotton, vegetables (eg.
cucumbers, beans and cucurbits), barley, grass, oats, coffee, corn, fruit plants, rice, rye, soybean, grapevines, wheat, orna-mental plants, sugar cane and a large number of seeds.
They are particularly suitable for controlling the following phy-topathogenic fungi: Erysiphe graminis (powdery mildew) on cereals, Erysiphe cichoracearum and Sphaerotheca fuliginea on curcurbits, Podosphaera leucotricha on apples, Uncinula necator on vines, Puccinia species on cereals, Rhizoctonia species on cotton and lawns, Ustilago species on cereals and sugar cane, Venturia inaequalis (scab) on apples, H-lminthosporium species on cereals, Septoria nodorum on wheat, Botrytis cinera (gray mold) on strawberries and vines, Cercospora arachidicola on peanuts, Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides on wheat and barley, Pyricularia oryzae on rice, Phytophthora infestans on potatoes 2 ? 92493 and tomatoes, Plasmopara viticola on vinesr Alternaria species on vegetables and fruit and Fusarium and Verticillium species.

They can also be used in material protection (eg. wood protec-tion), for example against Paecilomyces variotii.

The compounds I and II can be applied simultaneously, conjointly or separately, or successively, and the sequence of separate ap-plication generally has no effect on the result of control.
The compounds I and II are normally used in a ratio by weight of from 50:1 to 2:1, preferably 40:1 to 1.8:1, in particular 30:1 to 1.8:1 (11:1).

The application rates of the mixtures according to the invention depend on the nature of the desired effect and are from 0.005 to 0.5 kg/ha, preferably 0.01 to 0.5 kg/ha, in particular 0.01 to 0.3 kg/ha, for compounds I. The application rates for compounds II are correspondingly from 0.1 to 10 kg/ha, preferably 0.5 to 5 kg/ha, in particular 1 to 4 kg/ha.

The application rates of the mixture for seed treatment are gen-erally from 0.001 to 100 g/kg of seeds, preferably 0.01 to 50 g/
kg, in particular 0.01 to 10 g/kg.
Where harmful fungi which are pathogenic for plants are to be controlled, the separate or conjoint application of the compounds I and II or of the mixtures of compounds I and II takes place by spraying or dusting the seeds, the plants or the soil before or after sowing the plants or before or after emergence of the plants.

The fungicidal synergistic mixtures according to the invention, or the compounds I and II can be prepared, for example, in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders and suspensions or in the form of high-percentage aqueous, oily or other suspen-sions, dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dusting agents, scatteriug agents or granules, and be used by spraying, atomizing, dusting, scattering or pouring. The application form depends on the purpose of use; it should in every case ensure dispersion of the mixture according to the invention which is as fine and uniform as possible.

The formulations are produced in a conventional way, eg. by ad-ding solvents and/or carriers. Inert additives such as emulsifi-ers or dispersants are normally mixed with the formulations.

Suitable surface-active substances are the-alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and ammonium salts of aromatic sulfonic acids, eg.
lignin-, phenol-, naphthalene- and dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid, and of fatty acids, alkyl- and alkylarylsulfonates, alkyl, lauryl ether and fatty alcohol sulfates, and salts of sulfated hexa-, hepta- and octadecanols or fatty alcohol glycol ethers, condensation products of sulfonated naphthalene and its derivatives with formaldehyde, condensation products of naphthalene or of naphthalenesulfonic acids with phenol and formaldehyde, polyoxyethylene octylphenol ethers, ethoxylated isooctyl-, octyl- or nonylphenol, alkylphenol or tributylphenyl polyglycol ether, alkylaryl polyether alkohols, isotridecyl alcohol, fatty alcohol ethylene oxide condensates, ethoxylated castor oil, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers or polyoxypropylene, lauryl alcohol polyglycol ether acetate, sorbitol esters, lignin sulfite waste liquors or methylcellulose.

Scattering and dusting powders can be produced by mixing or mill-ing together the compounds I or II or the mixture of compounds I
and II with a solid carrier.

Granules (eg. coated, impregnated or homogenous granules) are normally produced by binding the active ingredient or ingredients on a solid carrier.
Examples of fillers and solid carriers which are used are mineral earths such as silica gel, silicas, silica gels,silicates, talc, kaolin, limestone, lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolo-mite, diatomaceous earth, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide, ground plastics, and fertilizers such as ammo-nium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, ureas and vegetable products such as cereal flour, bark meal, wood meal and nutshell meal, cellulose powder or other solid carriers.

The formulations generally contain from 0.1 to 95 % by weight, preferably 0.5 to 90 % by weight, of one of the compounds I or II
or the mixture of compounds I and II. The active ingredients are employed for this.purpose in a purity of from 90 % to 100 %, pre-ferably 95 % to 100 $(according to NMR or HPLC spectrum).
The compounds I or II or the mixtures or the corresponding for-mulations are used for treating the harmful fungi, or the plants, seeds, soil, areas, materials or rooms which are to be kept free of them with a fungicidally effective amount of the mixture or of the compounds I and II on separate application. The use can take place before or after attack by the harmful fungi.

~ 21924 93 Examples of the synergistic effect of the mixtures according to the invention against harmful fungi.

The fungicidal action of the compounds and of the mixtures was shown by the following test:

The active ingredients were prepared separately or conjointly as 20 % strength emulsion in a mixture of 70 % by weight of cyclo-hexanone, 20 % by weight of NekanilLN LN (Lutensol(D AP6, wetting agent with emulsifying and dispersing action based on ethoxylated alkylphenols) and 10 B by weight of Emulphor EL (Emulan(t EL, emulsifier based on ethoxylated fatty alcohols) and diluted to the required concentration with water.

Evaluation took place by establishing the percentage of leaf area attacked. These percentages were converted into efficacies. The efficacies to be expected for the active ingredient mixtures were determined by the Colby formula.[R.S. Colby, Weeds 15, 20-22 (1967)] and compared with the observed efficacies.
Colby formula:

E=x+y-x=y/100 E efficacy to be expected, expressed as ~ of untreated control on use of the mixture of active ingredients A and B in con-centrations a and b x the efficacy expressed as % of the untreated control on use of active ingredient A in concentration a y the efficacy expressed as t of the untreated control on use of active ingredient B in concentration b An efficacy of 0 means that the attack on the treated plants cor-responds to that on the untreated control plants; an efficacy of 100 means that the treated plants show no attack.

A. Efficacy against Plasmopara viticola (vine peronospora) Pot vines (variety: MUller Thurgau) were sprayed to run-off with the active ingredient preparation. After 8 days, the plants were sprayed with a suspension of zoospores of the fungus Plasmopara viticola and initially stored at 24*C and 100 8 humidity for 48 h.
The test plants were then left in a glasshouse at 20-30*C for 5 days. Before the assessment, the plants were stored at high humidity'for a further 16 h. The evaluation took place by inspec-tion of the undersides of the leaves.
