Benefits of technology

The pyrimidinyloxy benzene derivatives provide effective, selective control of weeds in crops and non-crop areas, reducing productivity losses and environmental impact while being safer and potentially less costly than existing herbicides.

Problems solved by technology

Unchecked weed growth in such useful crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer.

Preparation of 2-[(5-chloro-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]-N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)benzamide (Compound 28)

Step A: Preparation of 2-methoxy-N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)benzamide

[0313]A solution of 2,2,2-Trifluoroethylamine (1.28 g, 12.89 mmoles) and triethylamine (4.1 mL, 29.31 mmoles) in dichloromethane (30 mL) was cooled to 0° C. The reaction mixture was treated with a solution of 2-methoxybenzoyl chloride (2.0 g, 11.72 mmoles) in in dichloromethane (8 mL) at a temperature below 5° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to slowly warm to room temperature. De-ionized water was added and the mixture partitioned. The aqueous phase was extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic phases were washed with 1N HCl and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and dried with magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum to a white solid. The solid was filtered from hexanes to obtain the title compound (2.24 g) as a solid.

Preparation of 3-buten-1-yl 2-bromo-6-[(5-chloro-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]benzoate (Compound 21)

Step A: Preparation of 3-butenyl 2-bromo-6-hydroxybenzoate

[0319]To a stirred solution of 2-bromo-6-hydroxybenzoic acid (0.200 g, 0.921 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (3 mL) was added oxalyl chloride (94.8 μL, 1.11 mml) and 2 drops of N,N′-dimethylformamide. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under vacuum and the residue was dissolved in dry dichloromethane (3 mL) and treated with 3-buten-1-ol (86.9 μL, 1.01 mmol) and 3 drops of triethylamine. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum onto Celite® diatomaceous earth filter aid and purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 0 to 20% ethyl acetate in hexanes to afford the title compound (0.117 g).

Preparation of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl 2-bromo-6-[(5-chloro-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]benzoate (Compound 26)

Step A: Preparation of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl 2-bromo-6-hydroxybenzoate

[0323]To a stirred solution of 2-bromo-6-hydroxybenzoic acid (0.500 g, 2.30 mmol) and molecular sieves in 3,3,3-trifluoropropan-1-ol (15 mL) was added concentrated sulfuric acid (0.300 mL). The reaction mixture was heated at 78° C. for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered through a small pad of Celite® diatomaceous earth filter aid. The filtrate was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water, and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution. The organic phase was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude material was purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 0 to 20% ethyl acetate in hexanes to afford the title compound (0.268 g).

Abstract

Disclosed are compounds of Formula 1, including all stereoisomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof,whereinA, Z, R1 R2, R3 and m are as defined in the disclosure.Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula 1 and methods for controlling undesired vegetation comprising contacting the undesired vegetation or its environment with an effective amount of a compound or a composition of the invention.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to certain pyrimidinyloxy benzene derivatives, their N-oxides, salts and compositions, and methods of their use for controlling undesirable vegetation.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The control of undesired vegetation is extremely important in achieving high crop efficiency. Achievement of selective control of the growth of weeds especially in such useful crops as rice, soybean, sugar beet, maize, potato, wheat, barley, tomato and plantation crops, among others, is very desirable. Unchecked weed growth in such useful crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer. The control of undesired vegetation in noncrop areas is also important. Many products are commercially available for these purposes, but the need continues for new compounds that are more effective, less costly, less toxic, environmentally safer or have different sites of action.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]Th...
