- the 2-haloethanesulphinic acid compounds of the formula (I) show a considerably greater plant-growth-regulating activity than 2-chloroethanephosphonic acid, which is chemically the nearest active substance with the same type of activity.
- Some of the substances to be used according to this invention additionally have microbicidal and fungicidal activity.
- the compounds according to the invention hence represent a valuable enrichment of the art.
- the present invention provides a plant-growthregulating composition containing as active ingredient a compound of the formula (1) in admixture with a carrier, e.g., a solid or liquefied gaseous diluent or carrier or a liquid diluent or carrier containing a surface-active agent.
- a carrier e.g., a solid or liquefied gaseous diluent or carrier or a liquid diluent or carrier containing a surface-active agent.

- 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid 2'-methylpropenyl ester 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid penten-l '-yl ester, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid l',l '-dimethylallyl ester, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid octadecen-9-yl ester, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid propargyl ester, Z-chloroethanesulphinic acid l-methyl-propargyl ester, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid 1',l '-dimethylpropargyl ester, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid cyclohexyl ester and the corresponding 2-bromoethanesulphinic acid derivatives.
- a number of the substances that can be used according to this invention are known, for example 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid chloride, 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid (see Doklady Akad. SSR 157 (1964), No. 1, pages 139-142); 2-chloroethanesulphinic acid methyl ester and 2-bromoethanesulphinic acid methyl ester (see Chem. Ber.
- the compounds of the formula (I) are new but can be prepared, as can the known analogues, in a simple manner using processes that are known in principle.
- the sulphinic acid halides are obtained if the corresponding bis-(2-haloethane)- disulphides are halogenated, for example with chlorine in a molar ratio of 1:3, in the presence of inert solvents, such as methylene chloride, at temperatures between -60 C and 10 C, and the products are then reacted with alcohols.
- the reaction products are isolated by stripping off the solvent in vacuo and distilling the residue.
- the corresponding sulphinic acid halides are reacted with hydrolyzing agents or with the corresponding alcohols at temperatures between l C and +40 C in the presence of inert solvents, such as methylene chloride.
- E-chloroethanesulphinic acid chloride was prepared analogously.
- the active compounds that can be used according to this invention interefere with the physiological phenomena of plant growth and can therefore be used as plant-growth regulators.
- the different effects of the active compounds depend essentially on the point in time of the application, with reference to the development stage of the seed or the plant, as well as on the concentrations applied.
- Plant-growth regulators are used for various purposes that are connected with the development stage of the plant.
- the seed dormancy can be broken in order to cause the seeds to germinate at a certain time at which germination is desired, but at which the seed itself shows no readiness to germinate.
- the seed germination itself can, depending dogenic annual cycle, can be influenced by the active compounds, so that the plants for instance shoot or The shoot or root growth can be promoted or inhibited by the active compounds in manner dependent on the applied concentration.
- the branching to the side can be multiplied by a chemical breaking of the apical dominance. This is of interest, for example in the propagation of plants by cuttings. In a concentrationdependent manner, however, it is also possible to inhibit the growth of side-shoots, for example in order to prevent the formation of side-shoots in tobacco plants after decapitation and thus to promote the leaf growth.
- the influence of the active compounds on the foliage of the plants can be so regulated that a defoliation is achieved, for example in order to facilitate the harvest or to reduce transpiration at a time at which the plants are to be transplanted.
- Fruit initiation can be promoted so that more, or seedless, fruits are formed (parthenocarpy). Under certain conditions, the premature fall of fruit can also be prevented, or the fruit fall can be promoted to a certain extent in the sense of a chemical thinning out. The promotion of the fruit fall can, however, also be so exploited that the treatment is effected at the time of the harvest, whereby a facilitation of harvesting occurs. With growth regulators it is also possible to accelerate or retard fruit ripening, to improve the fruit coloration and to cause fruits to come to ripeness within a short period of one another.
- Yield increases with the aid of growth regulators can be attained by promotion of fruit initiation, by formation of larger fruits and by promotion of the vegetative growth. Further, a stimulation of the synthesis or of the outflow of secondary vegetable substances (for example latex flow of rubber trees) is possible.
- the active compounds to be used according to the present invention can be converted into the usual formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, pastes and granulates. These may be produced in known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is, liquid or solid or liquefied gaseous diluents or carriers, optionally with the use of surface-active agents, that is, emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents.
- extenders that is, liquid or solid or liquefied gaseous diluents or carriers
- surface-active agents that is, emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents.
- organic solvents can, for example, also be used as auxiliary solvents.
- liquid diluents or carriers there are preferably used aromatic hydrocarbons, such as xylenes, toluene, benzene or alkyl naphthalenes, chlorinated aromatic or aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example mineral oil fractions, alcohols, such as butanol or glycol as well as their ethers and esters, ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, or strongly polar solvents, such as dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulphoxide or acetonitrile, as well as water.

- ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, or ground synthetic minerals, such as highly-dispersed silicic acid, alumina or silicates.
- emulsifying agents include non-ionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene-fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene-fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylarylpolyglycol ethers, alkyl sulphonates, alkyl sulphates and aryl sulphonates, and preferred examples of dispersing agents include lignin, sulphite waste liquors and methyl cellulose.
- non-ionic and anionic emulsifiers such as polyoxyethylene-fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene-fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylarylpolyglycol ethers, alkyl sulphonates, alkyl sulphates and aryl sulphonates
- dispersing agents include lignin, sulphite waste liquors and methyl cellulose.
- the formulations contain, in general, from 0.1 to 95, preferably from 0.5 to 90% by weight of active compound.
