Synergistic pesticides
Amongst the group of the 4-amino- and 4-alkoxypyrimi-
dines, compounds are known which have an insecticidal and
acaricidal activity. These compounds are described in
P 42 08 254.4. Surprisingly, it has now been found that
the combination of these pyrimidines with known insec-
ticides and acaricides results in synergistic effects.
Synergism is to be understood a~ mean;ng the mutually
enh~ncing activity of two or more substances. In the
present case, the combined use of the active substances
allows the application rates to be reduced while still
achieving the same effect, or a higher acti~ity to be
achieved with the same application rates than the
activity to be expected when the active substances are
applied indi~idually (synergistic effect).
The present in~ention therefore relates to pesticides
comprising at least one compound of the formula (I) or a
salt thereof

The abovementioned active substances are described in Ch.
R. Worthing, R.Y. Hance, The Pesticide Manual, British
Crop.; 9th Ed., Protection Council (1991).
The abovementioned active substance fenpyroximate was
described by T. Ronno et al. (Proc. 1990 Brighton Crop
Prot. Conf. - Pests Dis., (The Pesticide Manual, British
Crop.; 9th Ed., Protection Council (1991)).
The abovementioned active substance tebufenozide
(RH 5992) is disclosed in the European Patent Application
EP 236 618 (Aller et al., Rohm and Haas Comp.)
The exploitation with such synergistic effects allows the
application rates of the components in the mixtures to be
reduced considerably, and it is possible to control a
broad range of pests. The reduced application rates apply
not only to the pyrimidines, but also to the components
in the mixtures with regard to their specific activity.
However, the use of mixtures which produce synergistic
effects does not only bring substantial economic
advantages, but also ecological advantages.
The compositions according to the invention are well
tolerated by plants and have a favorable toxicity to
warm-blooded species and are ~uitable for controlling
animal pests, in particular insects, arachnids and
nematodes, particularly preferably for controlling
insects and their development stages which occur in
agriculture, in forests, in the protection of stored

The invention also relates to insecticidal and acaricidal
compositions which contain suitable formulation auxilia-
ries in addition to active substances of types A and B.
The active substance content of the use forms prepared
from the commercially available formulations can vary
from 0.0001 up to 99% by weight, it is preferably between
2 and 95% by weight.
They are applied in a customary manner adapted to suit
the use forms.
They can be formulated in variou~ ways, dep~nA;ng on the
prevailing biological and/or chemico-physical parameters.
The following are therefore suitable possibilities of
formulations:
Wettable powders (WP), emulsifiable concentrates (EC),
a~ueous solutions (SC), emulsions, sprayable solutions,
oil- or water-based dispersions (SC), suspoemulsions
(SC), dusts (DP), seed-dressing products, granules in the
form of microgranules, spray granules, coated granules
and adsorption granules, water-dispersible granules (WG),
ULV formulations, microcapsules, waxes or baits.
These individual types of formulation~ are known in
principle and are described, for example, in Winnacker-
Ruchler, "Chemische Technologien, [Chemical Technology],
Volume 7, C. Hauser Verlag Mi;nc~en~ 4th Ed. 1986; van

The formulation auxiliaries required, such as inert
materials, surfactants, solvents and other additives are
also known and are described, for example, in: Watkins,

Ed., Darland Books, Caldwell N.J.; H.v. Olphen,

4th Ed. 1986.
Wettable powders are preparations which are uniformly
dispersible in water and which additionally contain,
besides the active substance, wetting agents, for example
polyoxethylated alkylphenols, polyoxethylated fatty
alcohols, alkyl- or alkylphenolsulfonates and disper-
sants, for example sodium lignosulfonate, sodium 2,2'-
dinaphthylmethane-6,6'-disulfonate, sodium dibutylnaph-
thalenesulfonate or else sodium or oleoylmethyltaurate,
in addition to a diluent or inert substance.
Emulsifiable concentrates are prepared by dissolving the
active substance in an organic solvent, for example
butanol, cyclohe~anone, dimethylformamide, xylene or else
higher-boiling aromatics or hydrocarbons, with an addi-
tion of one or more emulsifiers. Examples of emulsifierswhich can be used are: calcium alkylarylsulfonate salts
such as calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, or non-ionic
emulsifiers, such as fatty acid polyglycol esters,
alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol
ethers, propylene oxide/ethylene oxide condensation
products, alkyl polyethers, sorbitan fatty acid esters,
polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters or polyoxy-
~l ~ i 7 5~
11
ethylene sorbitol esters.
Dusts are obtained by gr;n~;ng the active substance withfinely divided solid substances, for example talc,
natural clays, such as kaolin, bentonite, pyrophillite,
or diatomaceous earth. Granules can be prepared either by
spraying the active substance onto adsorptive, granulated
inert material or by applying active substance concentra-
tes to the surface of carriers, such as sand, kaolinites
or granulated inert material, by means of binders, for
example polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or else
mineral oils. Suitable active substances can also be
granulated in the manner customary for the preparation of
fertilizer granules, if desired in the form of a mixture
with fertilizers.
The active substance concentration in wettable powders
is, for example, approximately 10 to 90% by weight, the
remainder to 100% by weight being composed of customary
formulation components. In the case of emulsifiable
concentrates, the active substance concentration can be
approximately 5 to 80% by weight. Formulations in the
form of dusts usually contain 5 to 20% by weight of
active substance, sprayable solutions approximately 2 to
20% by weight. In the case of granules, the active
substance content partly depends on whether the active
compound is in the liquid or solid form and on which
granulation auxiliaries, fillers and the like are being
used.
In addition, the abovementioned formulations of active
substances contain, if appropriate, the a &esives,
wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, penetrants,
solvents, fillers or carriers which are customary in each
case. For use, the concentrates, which are in commer-
cially available form, are, if appropriate, diluted in
the customary manner, for example using water in the case
of wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, disper-
sions and, in some cases, also in the case of micro-
- 12 - 21 7 i 755
-
granules. Preparations in the form of dust and granular
preparations and also sprayable solutions are convention-
ally not diluted any further with other inert substances
prior to use.
The application rate required varies with external
conditions such as, inter alia, temperature and humidity.
It can vary within wide limits, i.e. between 0.0001 and
10 kg/ha or more of active substance, but it is prefer-
ably between 0.0001 and 1 kg/ha.
The active substances according to the invention, in
their commercially available formulations and in the use
forms prepared with these formulations, can be in the
form of mixtures with other active substances, such as
insecticides, attractants, sterilants, acaricides,
nematicides, fungicides, growth-regulating substances or
herbicides.
The examples which follow are intended to illustrate the
invention:
When the biological examples were carried out, tank mixes
of the active substances were applied in the form of
suitable formulations. Compound A, which was applied in
the Examples, is particularly preferred and has the
formula I in which
Rl is hydrogen,
R2 is ethyl,
R3 is chlorine,
X is NH,
E is a direct bond and
Q is 4-tert-butylcyclohexyl in the cis configura-
tion relative to E.
