ABSTRACT:

This application is a 371 of PCT/EP98/02945, filed May 20, 1998.

-alkyl, or a salt or adduct thereof,
in a synergistically effective amount.
Moreover, the invention relates to methods for controlling harmful fungi using mixtures of the compounds I and II and to the use of the compound I and the compound II for preparing such mixtures.
The compounds of the formula I, their preparation and their activity against harmful fungi are disclosed in the literature (WO-A 96/01,256; WO-A 96/01,258).
Compounds of the formula II are disclosed in the literature as active compounds having immunizing effects on plants (EP-A 313 512). In addition, synergistic mixtures comprising the compounds II are disclosed (WO-A 97/01,277).
It is an object of the present invention to provide mixtures which have an improved activity against harmful fungi combined with a reduced total amount of active ingredients applied (synergistic mixtures), with a view to reducing the application rates and to improving the activity spectrum of the known compounds I and II.
We have found that this object is achieved by the mixture defined at the outset. Moreover, we have found that better control of harmful fungi is possible by applying the compound I and the compound II simultaneously together or separately or by applying the compound I and the compounds II in succession than when the individual compounds are used alone.
The formula I in particular represents carbamates in which the combination of the substituents corresponds to a row of the following table:

Particular preference is given to the compounds I.12, I.23, I.32 and I.38.

Particular preference is given to the compound II.4.
Owing to the basic character of their nitrogen atoms, the compounds I and II are capable of forming salts or adducts with inorganic or organic acids or with metal ions.
Examples of inorganic acids are hydrohalic acids such as hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid and hydriodic acid, and furthermore sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and nitric acid.
Suitable organic acids are, for example, formic acid and alkanoic acids, such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and propionic acid, and also glycolic acid, thiocyanic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, oxalic acid, alkylsulfonic acids (sulfonic acids having straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals of 1 to 20 carbon atoms), arylsulfonic acids or aryldisulfonic acids (aromatic radicals, such as phenyl and naphthyl, which carry one or two sulfo groups), alkylphosphonic acids (phosphonic acids having straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals of 1 to 20 carbon atoms), arylphosphonic acids or aryldiphosphonic acids (aromatic radicals, such as phenyl and naphthyl, which carry one or two phosphoric acid radicals), it being possible for the alkyl or aryl radicals to carry further substituents, e.g. p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, p-aminosalicylic acid, 2-phenoxybenzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, etc.
Suitable metal ions are, in particular, the ions of the elements of the first to eighth sub-group, in particular chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, and furthermore of the second main group, in particular calcium and magnesium, and of the third and fourth main group, in particular aluminum, tin and lead. The metals can exist in the various valences which they can assume.
Particularly preferred salts of the compound II.2 are alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts (in particular lithium salts, sodium salts, potassium salts, magnesium salts and calcium salts), and organic salts, especially of ammonium ions or of the ions of primary, secondary and tertiary amines (in particular trimethylamine, triethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline, pyridine, triethanolamine, piperidine and morpholine).
When preparing the mixtures, it is preferred to employ the pure active ingredients I and II, to which further active ingredients against harmful fungi or other pests, such as insects, arachnids and nematodes or else herbicidal or growth-regulating active ingredients or fertilizers can be admixed.
The mixtures of the compounds I and II, or the simultaneous joint or separate use of the compounds I and II, exhibit outstanding activity against a wide range of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular from the class of the Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, Phycomycetes and Deuteromycetes. Some of them act systemically and can therefore be employed as foliar- and soil-acting fungicides.
They are especially important for controlling a large number of fungi in a variety of crop plants such as cotton, vegetable species (e.g. cucumbers, beans, tomatoes, potatoes and cucurbits), barley, grass, oats, bananas, coffee, maize, fruit species, rice, rye, soya, grapevine, wheat, ornamentals, sugarcane, and a variety of seeds.
They are particularly suitable for controlling the following phytopathogenic fungi:
Erysiphe graminis
(powder mildew) in cereals,
Erysiphe cichoracearum
and Sphaerotheca fuliginea in cucurbits,
Podosphaera leucotricha
in apples, Uncinula necator in grapevines, Puccinia species in cereals, Rhizoctonia species in cotton, rice and lawns, Ustilago species in cereals and sugarcane, Venturia inaequalis (scab) in apples, Helminthosporium species in cereals and lawns,
Septoria nodorum
in wheat,
Botrytis cinerea
(gray mold) in strawberries, vegetables, ornamentals and grapevines, Sclerotina species in rape-seed and lawns,
Cercospora arachidicola
in groundnuts, Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides in wheat and barley,
Pyricularia oryzae
in rice,
Phytophthora infestans
in potatoes and tomatoes, Pythium species in ornamentals, vegetables and lawns,
Plasmopara viticola
in grapevines, Pseudoperonospora species in hops and cucumbers, Alternaria species in vegetables and fruit, Mycosphaerella species in bananas and Fusarium- and Verticillium species.
Furthermore, they can be used in the protection of materials (e.g. in the protection of wood), for example against
Paecilomyces variotii.
The compounds I and II can be applied simultaneously, either together or separately, or in succession, the sequence, in the case of separate application, generally not having any effect on the result of the control measures.
The compounds I and II are usually used in a weight ratio of 10:1 to 0.01:1, preferably from 5:1 to 0.05:1, in particular 1:1 to 0.05:1.
Depending on the kind of effect desired, the application rates of the mixtures according to the invention are, in particular in agricultural crops, from 0.01 to 8 kg/ha, preferably 0.1 to 5 kg/ha, in particular 0.5 to 3.0 kg/ha.
