Fungicidal active compound combinations
The present invention relates to novel active compound combinations which
comprise
known halogeno-benzimidazoles and further known fungicidally active compounds,
and
which are highly suitable for controlling phytopathogenic fungi.
It is already known that 1-(3,5-dimethyl-isoxazole-4-sulphonyl)-2-bromo-6,6-
diffuoro-
[1,3]-dioxolo-[4,Sf]-benzimidazole and 1-(3,5-dimethyl-isoxaole-4-sulphonyl)-2-
chloro-
6,6-difluoro-[1,3]-dioxolo-[4,SfJ-benzimidazole have fungicidal properties
(cf. WO 97-
06171 ). The activity of these compounds is good; however, at low application
rates it is in
some cases not satisfactory.
Furthermore, it is already known that a large number of triazole derivatives,
aniline
derivatives, dicarboximides and other heterocycles can be employed for
controlling fungi
(cf. EP-A 0 040 345, DE-A 2 201 063, DE-A 2 324 0 10, Pesticide Manual, 9th
Edition
(1991), pages 249 and 827, EP-A 0 382 375 and EP-A 0 S15 901). Likewise, the
activity
of these compounds is not always satisfactory at low application rates.
Finally, it is also known that 1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridinyl)-methyl]-N-nitro-2-
imida-
zolidineimine can be used for controlling animal pests such as insects (cf.
Pesticide
Manual, 9th Edition (1991), page 491). However, fungicidal properties have not
hitherto
been described for this compound.

have very good fungicidal properties.
Surprisingly, the fungicidal activity of the active compound combinations
according to the
invention is considerably higher than the sum of the activities of the
individual active
compounds. Thus, an unforeseeable, true synergistic effect is present, and not
just an
addition of activities.

are employed per part by weight of active compound of the formula (I).
The active compound combinations according to the invention have very good
fungicidal
properties and can be employed for controlling phytopathogenic fungi, such as
Plasmodiophoromycetes, Oomycetes, Chytridiomycetes, Zygomycetes, Ascomycetes,
Basidiomycetes, Deuteromycetes, etc.
The active compound combinations according to the invention are particularly
suitable for
controlling cereal diseases, such as Erysiphe, Puccinia and Fusarium, and for
controlling
diseases encountered in viticulture, such as Uncinula, Plasmopara and
Botrytis, and
furthermore in dicotylendonous crops for controlling powdery and downy mildew
fungi
and causative organisms of leaf spot.
The fact that the active compound combinations are well tolerated by plants at
the
concentrations required for controlling plant diseases permits the treatment
of above-
ground parts of plants, of propagation stock and seeds, and of the soil. The
active
compound combinations according to the invention can be employed for foliar
application
or else as seed dressings.

The active compound combinations according to the invention can be converted
to the
customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders,
foams,
pastes, granules, aerosols and microencapsulations in polymeric substances and
in coating
S compositions for seeds, and LTLV formulations.
These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the
active
compounds or active compound combinations with extenders, that is liquid
solvents,
liquefied gases under pressure, and/or solid Garners, optionally with the use
of surfactants,
that is emulsifiers and/or dispersants, and/or foam formers. If the extender
used is water, it
is also possible to use, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents.
Essentially,
suitable liquid solvents include: aromatics such as xylene, toluene or
alkylnaphthalenes,
chlorinated aromatics or chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as
chlorobenzenes,
chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as
cyclohexane or
parafFlns, for example petroleum fractions, alcohols such as butanol or glycol
and their
ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl
isobutyl ketone or
cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl
sulphoxide, or else water. Liquefied gaseous extenders or carriers are to be
understood as
meaning liquids which are gaseous at ambient temperature and under atmospheric
pressure, for example aerosol propellants such as butane, propane, nitrogen
and carbon
dioxide. Suitable solid carriers are: for example ground natural minerals such
as kaolins,
clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous
earth, and ground
synthetic minerals such as finely divided silica, alumina and silicates.
Suitable solid carriers
for granules are: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as
calcite,
marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite, or else synthetic granules of
inorganic and organic
meals, and granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shells, maize
cobs and
tobacco stalks. Suitable emulsifiers and/or foam formers are: for example
nonionic and
anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters,
polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol
ethers, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl
sulphates,
arylsulphonates, or else protein hydrolysates. Suitable dispersants are: for
example lignin-
sulphite waste liquors and methylcellulose.

Tackifiers such as carboxymethylcellulose and natural and synthetic polymers
in the form
of powders, granules or lances, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and
polyvinyl
acetate, or else natural phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins, and
synthetic
phospholipids can be used in the formulations. Other additives can be mineral
and
vegetable oils.
It is possible to use colourants such as inorganic pigments, for example iron
oxide,
titanium oxide and prussian blue, and organic dyestuffs such as alizarin
dyestuffs, azo
dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dyestuffs, and trace nutrients such as
salts of iron,
manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.
The formulations generally comprise between 0.1 and 95% by weight of active
compounds, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.
In the formulations, the active compound combinations according to the
invention can be
present as a mixture with other known active compounds such as fungicides,
insecticides,
acaricides and herbicides, and as mixtures with fertilizers or plant growth
regulators.
The active compound combinations can be used as such, in the form of their
formulations
or as the use forms prepared therefrom, such as ready-to-use solutions,
emulsifiable
concentrates, emulsions, suspensions, wettable powders, soluble powders and
granules.
They are used in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying,
atomizing,
scattering, spreading, and as a powder for dry seed treatment, a solution for
seed
treatment, a water-soluble powder for seed treatment, a water-soluble powder
for slurry
treatment, or by encrusting.
When using the active compound combinations according to the invention, the
application
rates can be varied within a relatively wide range, depending on the kind of
application. In
the treatment of parts of plants, the application rates of the active compound
combination
are generally between 0.1 and 10,000 g/ha, preferably between 10 and 1000
g/ha. In the
treatment of seeds, the application rates of the active compound combination
are generally
between 0.001 and 50 g per kilogram of seed, preferably between 0.01 and 10 g
per
kilogram of seed. In the treatment of the soil, the application rates of the
active compound


CA 02286849 1999-10-15
Le A 32 323-Foreign Countries
-22-
combination are generally between 0.1 and 10,000 g/ha, preferably between 1
and
5000 g/ha.
The good fungicidal activity of the active compound combinations according to
the
invention is evident from the examples below. While the individual active
compounds
exhibit weaknesses with regard to the fungicidal activity, the combinations
have an activity
which exceeds a simple addition of activities.
A synergistic effect of fungicides is always present when the fungicidal
activity of the
active compound combinations exceeds the total of the activities of the active
compounds
when applied individually.
The expected activity for a given combination of two active compounds can be
calculated
as follows (cf. Colby, S.R., "Calculating Synergistic and Antagonistic
Responses of
Herbicide Combinations", Weeds 15, ( 1967), 20-22)
If
X is the efficacy when applying active compound A at an application rate of
Via,
Y is the efficacy when applying active compound B at an application rate of n
g/ha,
and
E is the efficacy when applying the active compounds A and B at application
rates of
m and n g/ha,
then
X~Y
E=X +Y-
100
The efficacy is calculated in %. 0% is an efficacy which corresponds to that
of the control,
while an efficacy of 100% means that no infection is observed.


CA 02286849 1999-10-15
Le A 32 323-Foreign Countries
- 23 -
If the actual fungicidal activity exceeds the calculated value, then the
activity of the
combination is superadditive, i.e. a synergistic effect exists. In this case,
the efficacy which
was actually observed must be greater than the value for the expected efficacy
(E)
calculated from the abovementioned formula.
The examples that follow illustrate the invention.

Example 2
Fusarium nivale test (triticale) / seed treatment
The active compounds are applied as dry seed dressings. These are prepared by
ex-
tending the respective active compound or the active compound combination with
ground minerals to give a finely pulverulent mixture which ensures uniform
distri-
bution on the seed surface.
To dress the seed, the infected seed together with the seed dressing is shaken
for
3 minutes in a sealed glass flask.
2 x 100 corns of triticale are sown at a depth of 1 cm in standard soil and
cultivated in
a greenhouse at a temperature of about 10°C and a relative atmospheric
humidity of
1 S about 95% in seed trays which receive a light regimen of 15 hours per day.
About 3 weeks after sowing, the plants are evaluated for symptoms. 0% means an
efficacy which corresponds to that of the control, while an efficacy of 100%
means
that no infection is observed.
