Description
The presenc invention relates to 1.1-diphenylethene derivatives, to their production, and to their use for combating fungi, as well as co microbicidal compositions which contain such compounds as active ingredients.
The new compounds correspond to the'formula I;
(R,)m
X R
(I) in which X is fluorine or chlorine; R is a 1,2,4-triazolyl-l group or imidazolyl-1 group, each of which may or may not be substituted by methyl; while Rg and independently of one another are each a number, determined by m and n respectively, of identical or different substituents from the group halogen, Cg-Cg-alkyl, -CFg or -CM, and m and n independently of one another are each 0, 1, 2 or 3.
Compounds of the formula I can be designated as 1.1diphenyl-2-haloethenes and, depending on the hetarocycle R, are accordingly 1.l-diphenyl-2-halc-2-(1,2,4-triazolyl-l)ethenes and l.l-diphenyl-2-halo-2-(imicazolyl-L)-ethenes.
'1 v */ 3
The sales tolerant to plants of the compounds of the formula I with inorganic or organic acids, and also corresponding metal complex salts with Cu salts, Mn salts,
Zn salts and Fe salts and other salts, are taken as being embraced by the formula I.
Compounds of the formula I are derived in the majority of cases structurally from the chemical group of DDT analogues, but have no insecticidal action and are readily decomposed under natural conditions .
It has now been found that, surprisingly, compounds having the structure of the formula I have for practical requirements a very favourable microbicidal spectrum for the protection of cultivated plants, without disadvantageous^ affecting them as a result of undesirable secondary effects. Cultivated plants within the scope of the present invention are, for example cereals (wheat, barley, rye, oats and sorghum millets,, maize, rice, vegetables, sugar beet, soya bean, groundnuts, fruit trees, ornamental plants, vines, hops, gourds (cucumbers, pumpkins, melons), solanaceae, such as potatoes, tobacco and tomatoes, as well as banana plants, cocoa and natural rubber plants.
Fungi occurring on plants or parts thereat (fruit, blossom, foliage, stalks, tubers or roots) of the said crops and of related useful crops can be inhibited or destroyed with the active substances of the formula I, and also parts of plants growing subsequently remain protectee against such fungi. Tho active substances are effective against the phytopathogenic fungi belonging to the following classes: Phycomycetes such as Oomvcetes species, Basidiomycetes such as in particular rust fungi (e.g. Puccinia); Fungi imperfecti (e.g.
.17 9 7 3
VerticiLlium, Piricularia, Cercospora); especially however against the pathogens of varieties of vine mildew, belonging to the Ascomycetes class, such as Erysiphe and Podosphaera, as well as against Venturia and others. Furthermore, the compounds of the formula I have a systemic action.
They can also be used as dressing agents for the treatment of seed (fruits, tubers and grain), and plant cuttings to protect them from fungus infections, and also against phytopathogenic fungi occurring in the soil.
Preferred compounds of the formula I as plant fungicides are those in which X is fluorine. This group is to be called subgroup Ia.
Further preferred compounds of the formula I are those in which the substituents R^ and R9 occupy one of the ortho- or para-positions of the phenyl rings. When they are derived from the subgroup Ia, such compounds are to be called subgroup lb.
Those compounds of the formula I are particularlypreferred in which R is the unsubstituted 1,2,4-triazolyl-l
2n group, especially those compounds which are derived from the subgroup in and which are here to be called subgroup Ic
Active substances especially preferred in the subgroup Ic are those in which in at least two of the four positions 2,4 and 2',4' of both phenyl rings there are 2 halogen atoms from th: group fluorine and chlorine, and in the positions 3,5,6 and 3',5',6' there are hydrogen atoms.
This particularly preferred subgroup is to be called Id.
Very highly effective plant fungicides are, inter alia, the following individual compounds:
a) a.,a-bis-(4-chlorophenyl)-£-fluoro-0-(l,2,4-triazolyl-l)e thene,
7 9 7 3
b) α,α-bis-(2-chlorophenyl)-0-fluoro-0-(1,2,4-triazolyl-l) ethene,
c) a-phenyl-a-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-0-fluoro-β-(1,2,4triazolyl-1)-ethene,
d) a-(4-fluorophenyl)-a-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-0-fluoro-0(l,2,-4-triazolyl-l)-ethene,
e) a,a-bis-(4-fluorophenyl)-0-fluor0-0-(1,2,4-triazoly1-1)ethene,
f) a-(4-chlorophenyl)-a-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-0-fluoro-0(1,2,4-triazolyl-1)-ethene,
g) α,α-bis-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-0-fluoro-β-(1,2,4-triazolyl1)-ethene,
h) α,α-bis-(2-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-0-£luoro-0-(1,2,4triazolyl-1)-ethene.
These compounds show a particularly strong action in combating varieties of vine mildew. Applied in the customary amounts for fungicide application, compounds of the formula I are tolerant to plants and do not lead to any change in plant growth.
Compounds of the formula I are produced in the first place in the same manner or in a similar manner as DDT and analogues thereof (see e.g. German Patent Specification No. 547,871).
One of the possible known methods for producing symmetrical diphenylethene derivatives comprises condensation of the appropriately substituted benzene derivative with fluoral (or chloral) to give a DDT analogue from which one mol of HX is split off, with a base, to form a DDE analogue II:
7 9 7 3
X - F or Cl (II) ·
To produce unsymmetrical intermediates of the formula III
(III), in which and R„ or m and n are not tbe same, the procedure followed is analogous, and molar amounts of fluoral (or chloral) are condensed to give an intermediate IV which is condensed with a further benzene derivative, and subsequently one mol of HX is split off:
III
In order to obtain compounds of the formula I, it is possible by using equimolar amounts to exchange one of the two halogen atoms on the double bond of the intermediates IX or III for the heterocycle R, with one mol of HX being simultaneously split off. The reaction can frequently be simplified by performing the splitting-off of HX, to give the intermediates II or III, already in the
7S73 presence of the heterocycle R, so that II or III react in statu nascendi with 1,2,4-triazole or imidazole.
As is known, intermediates of tne formula IV can also be obtained by a Grignard reaction of a benzene derivative appropriately substituted with R^ (or Rg), and further reaction of the resulting phenyl magnesium bromide derivative either with
- fluoral or chloral, or
- trifluoroacetic acid or trichloroacetic acid, preferably in the form of their respective alkali metal salts, and subsequent catalytic hydrogenation (Hg/Pd) of the resulting trihaloacetophenone V
V
The product V may also be hydrogenated, instead of catalytically, with NaBH. or LiAlH. to the carbinol IV.

There are a number of other processes for producing the α,α —diphenylethane derivatives or α,α—diphenylethene derivatives, which are known in the majority and can be used as intermediates in the processes of the present invention.
The present invention relates to a process for producing compounds of the formula I by reaction of an α,α-diphenylB,β-dihaloethene of the formula III with unsubstituted or methyl-substituted imidazole or 1,2,4-triazole.
High temper itures up to 200°C are required to produce compounds of the formula I in which X is chlorine, in some cases the reaction has to be performed under pressure. Compounds in which X is fluorine can be obtained under milder conditions, e.g. from room temperature
7 9 7 3 up co a maximum of 1OO°C.
Where necessary inert solvents are used. Polar solvents such as glyme (ethylene glycol dimethyl ether), dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dioxane, water and so forth, are preferred. The addition of an inorganic base or of a tertiary amine, besides the basic reactants, is advisable.
With varyingly substituted phenyl rings, a mixture of cis/trans isomers of the formula I is obtained. The pure antipodes have different microbicidal effects.
The production of compounds of the formula I is illustrated in the following Examples. Temperature values throughout are in degrees Centigrade.

Example 1
Production of
a-(4-Chlorophenyl)-a-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-B-fluoro-β-(1,2,4triazolyl-1)-ethene [compound 16]
1 mol (339.5 g) of a-(p-chlorophenyl)-a-(o,p-dichlorophenyl)-B,B,j3-trifluoroethane is placed into 1 litre of glyme (= ethylene glycol dimethyl ether), and 82 g of triazole (= 25£ excess) is added to the solution.
250 mol of 60% KOH solution is added dropwise at
80 - 85° within one hour. The reaction mixture is then held at 80° for 4 hours. After cooling, the two phases are separated, and the organic phase is dried in the customary manner with Na sulfate and concentrated by evaporation to yield a light-coloured oil (320 g), which can be distilled in vacuo (b.p.; 180-185°/0.2 Torr). It is a mixture of the two possible cis-trans isomers. By using ether and cyclohexane, a part of the oil can be caused to crystallise. The crystallised product is one of the two isomers (m.p. = 94 - 95°).

The dispersion obtained is stirred overnight at room temperature, cooled, and 250 ml of 20% hydrochloric acid is added. The ethereal phase is separated, ; washed neutral with water and concentrated by evaporation. Vacuum distillation of the residue yields 91 g (about 50%) of p-fluorotrifluoroacetophenone, b.p. 5O-52°/2O mbars.
b) 212 g (1 mcl) of p-fluorotrifluoroacetophenone is dissolved in 1000 ml of ethyl alcohol, 20 g of NaBH^ is added at 0-10°, and the whole is stirred for 2 hours and then for a further 4 hours at room temperature.
500 ml of water is slowly added, and the supernatant clear solution is decanted and concentrated in a rotary evaporator. The residue is dissolved in diethyl ether, the solution is washed with water, dried with sodium sulfate and concentrated by evaporation. The oily residue is fractionated to yield 171 g of p-fluorophenyl-trifluoromethyl carbinol, b.p. 86-9O°C/ mbars.

The reaction mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature and is poured onto ice, and 300 ml of dichloromethane is added. The organic phase is washed neutral with water, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated by evaporation to obtain 260 g of a-(4-fluorophenyl)-a-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)j3,fj,d-trifluoroethane, b.p. 95-lO5°/O.13 mbar.
d) 90.4 g (0-28 mol) of the intermediate obtained under c) in 300 ml of glyme with 21.3 g (0-.31 mol) of 1,2,4triazole is heated at 80°C (reflux). A solution of 47 g of KOH in 100 ml of water is added dropwise in the course of 1 hour. The reaction mixture is then refluxed for 6 hours. After cooling, the organic phase is washed with a saturated salt solution and concentrated by evaporation. The viscous residue is distilled under high vacuum: b.p. 200°C/0.015 mbar. Recrystallisation from hexane yields the pure final product, b.p. 70-72°.

Scurf infestation was assessed 15 days after the infection.
Fungus infestation was completely prevented with the active substances Nos. 21, 23, 39 and 41.
EXAMPLE 12
Test against seed-borne fungi on cereals Action against delminthosporium gramineum
Wheat seeds were contaminated with a spore suspension Of the fungus and dried thereafter. The contaminated seeds were dressed with a suspension produced from wettable powder of
2o the test substance (600 ppm of active substance relative to the weight of the seeds). After two days the seeds were laid out on suitable isinglass dishes, and after another four days the development of the fungus colonies around the seeds was assessed. Number and size of the fungus colonies were taken as a basis for evaluating the test products.
Fungus growth was completely inhibited with the compounds Nos. 11, 16, 21, 32 and 39.

Example 13
Action against Pucclnia graminis f. sp. secalls on rye
Residual-protective action
Rye plants were sprayed, 4 days after sowing, with a spray liquor prepared from wettable powder of the active substance (200 ppm of active substance). The treated plants were infected with an uredo spore suspension of the fungus after 24 hours. After an incubation time of 48 hours at 95 - 100% relative humidity at about 20°, the infected plants were transferred into a greenhouse at about 22°. The development of rust pustules was assessed 12 days after the infection. Compared, with the untreated but infected control plants, tlie compounds of the formula I considerably reduced or completely prevented rust fungus infestation. Plants treated with the active substances Nos. 11, 21,
23, 39 or 41 showed no infection.
Hue to their broad fungus spectrum, compounds of the subgroup Id mentioned in the introduction, e.g. the active substances Nos. 21, 23 and 39, have to be especially men Iioned.
In order to broaden their spectrum of action, compounds of the formula I may be combined with other known fungicides and bactericides, and also with herbicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematocides, plant-growth regulators or fertilisers .
