Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic compound technology, specifically to a hydroxyaryluracil compound and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Because weeds compete with crops for light and fertilizer, they cause significant economic losses to agricultural production every year. Currently, the main method for weed control is still spraying chemical herbicides. However, with the widespread overuse of herbicides (such as glyphosate and glufosinate), many weeds have developed resistance, especially species like goosegrass, barnyard grass, and fleabane, which have become highly adaptable, prolific, and competitive dominant and noxious weeds. Existing herbicides on the market generally suffer from poor control efficacy, narrow weed removal range, and high dosage requirements, particularly against noxious grasses such as goosegrass, barnyard grass, and fleabane. Furthermore, these herbicides are expensive to produce and require large dosages, resulting in high prices and high weed control costs. Therefore, it is necessary to provide new herbicidal compounds with a broad spectrum of weed control, low resistance to weeds, and particularly good control efficacy against noxious grasses.

[0025] Because weeds compete with crops for light and fertilizer, they cause significant economic losses to agricultural production every year. Currently, the main method for weed control is still spraying chemical herbicides. However, with the widespread overuse of herbicides (such as glyphosate and glufosinate), many weeds have developed resistance, especially species like goosegrass, barnyard grass, and fleabane, which have become highly adaptable, prolific, and competitive dominant and noxious weeds.

Furthermore, the selective targeting of certain sites reduces the amount of some high-cost raw materials (such as phenyluracil) used in the preparation process, thereby lowering production costs and facilitating large-scale industrial production. Moreover, most weeds have developed resistance to commonly used herbicides after long-term use. The hydroxyaryluracil compound provided in this application is a novel compound not yet used in weed control, therefore it does not induce resistance in most weeds and exhibits excellent weed-control effects. Furthermore, this hydroxyaryluracil compound can specifically and effectively bind to chlorophyll protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) in plants, and due to the difference in target structure in mammals, this compound exhibits extremely high safety for mammals.

The active ingredient includes the aforementioned hydroxyaryluracil compounds and their tautomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, or pesticide-acceptable salts thereof. This pesticide composition offers advantages such as high selectivity, low dosage, broad-spectrum weed control, low risk of weed resistance, and low cost. It is particularly effective against noxious weeds such as goosegrass, barnyard grass, and Echinochloa crus-galli. Furthermore, this pesticide composition exhibits low toxicity to mammals and minimal impact on crops.
[0056] In this application, the mass percentage of the active ingredient in the pesticide composition is 1%-99%. In some specific embodiments, the mass percentage of the active ingredient in the pesticide composition can be, for example, 1%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 99%. In some embodiments of this application, the mass percentage of the active ingredient in the pesticide composition can be 5%-50%. By further limiting the content of the active ingredient in the pesticide composition, the cost of the pesticide composition can be effectively controlled while ensuring good efficacy.

[0092] Weigh out 0.25 g (0.00068 mol) of 2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3,6-dihydropyrimidin-1(2H)-yl)benzoic acid, 0.0012 g (0.000012 mol) of dimethylstannous chloride, 0.162 mL (0.00204 mol) of N-methylimidazolium chloride (NMI), and 0.264 g (0.00136 mol) of 2,2'-[(oxobis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(oxy)]bis(ethanol). 20 mL of acetonitrile was added to a 50 mL round-bottom flask and stirred at room temperature for 5 min. TLC monitoring showed that 2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3,6-dihydropyrimidin-1(2H)-yl)benzoic acid was completely converted to the active intermediate. N,N,N',N'-tetramethylchloroformamidine hexafluorophosphate (TCFH, 0.286 g, 0.00102 mol) was weighed and added to the above reaction solution. The mixture was stirred for 20 min, and TLC monitoring showed that the active intermediate was completely converted to the product. After the reaction was complete, the reaction solution was diluted with a large amount of ethyl acetate, then washed twice with water and twice with saturated brine. The solution was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and evaporated to dryness to obtain a white viscous solid (0.173 g, yield 47.2%).

[0095] In this embodiment of the invention, the hydroxyaryluracil compounds listed in Table 1 can be prepared by adjusting the preparation method described in the above embodiments; this will not be discussed further in this embodiment. Equivalent variations made in the claims are still within the scope of the invention.
[0096] Example 1
[0097] Herbicidal activity of some compounds listed in Table 1 of this application was determined using a post-emergence foliar treatment method. The experimental steps included:
[0098] (1) Fill the soil that has not been treated with the pesticide into flower pots, then sow the seeds and let them germinate and grow. When the dicotyledons grow to the two-leaf-one-heart stage and the monocotyledons grow to the 2-3-leaf stage, perform foliar spray treatment (when applying the compound, the compound is first dissolved in a small amount of organic solvent, then a small amount of emulsifier is added, and then diluted with water to obtain a solution containing the compound). The control group is the commercial compound KC1 (benzylsulfuron-methyl).
[0099]
[0100] (2) The plants were naturally grown under laboratory conditions and the potted plants were watered every day. The results of the investigation after 15 days of herbicide treatment are shown in Table 3. The herbicide scoring criteria are shown in Table 2. In this experiment, the target plants were common grass weeds: goosegrass, barnyard grass, and purslane, as well as broadleaf weeds: amaranth and purslane.

[0104]
[0105] Note: The compound numbers correspond to those in Table 1.
[0106] Example 2
[0107] The herbicidal activity and crop safety of the target compound were determined using a pre-emergence soil treatment experiment.
[0108] Fill flowerpots with untreated soil, add water until the soil is completely moist, and then sow 10-15 seeds of each type of weed into the pots. Cover with 1 cm of soil. One day after sowing, treat with pesticides. After the pesticide solution has dried naturally in the shade, store the pots indoors and manage them using standard methods. The results of the survey 15 days after pesticide treatment are shown in Table 4.

[0110]
[0111]
[0112] The results in Tables 3 and 4 show that the hydroxyaryluracil compounds provided by this invention exhibit high herbicidal activity against both grasses and broadleaf weeds; while the existing KC1 sulfadiazine has herbicidal activity against broadleaf weeds but poor efficacy against grasses. Therefore, the hydroxyaryluracil compounds provided by this invention have a wide weed control range and highly efficient herbicidal activity. The hydroxyaryluracil compounds provided by this invention have particularly outstanding herbicidal activity against difficult-to-control weeds such as goosegrass, barnyard grass, and sedge. When used in soil treatment, these hydroxyaryluracil compounds show almost no phytotoxicity to corn and excellent herbicidal activity against grasses and broadleaf weeds, making them suitable as selective herbicides for crop cultivation.
[0113] The preferred embodiments have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the specific implementation methods described above. Those skilled in the art can make various specific modifications under the guidance of this application without departing from the scope of protection of this application, and these modifications all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
