[0646] As shown in Scheme 18, acylation of the compound of formula (III) with a compound of formula (XXVII) (wherein X 0 is a leaving group, such as a halogen, preferably Cl) is carried out by methods known to those skilled in the art and already described in Scheme 1. The resulting compound of formula (IIIf) can then be processed with a heteroatom or carbon nucleophile, where R 1 、R 2 、R 3 、R 4 、R 5 、R 6 、R 7 、R 8 、R 9 、B 1 and B 2 are as defined for the compound of formula (I). For example, optionally in the presence of a base, with a compound of formula Z 1Treatment of a compound of -NH2 with a compound of formula (IIId) gives a compound of formula (Ig). Examples of such reactions have been described, for example, in J. Polym. Sci. Part A: Pol. Chem. 2012, 50(23), 4947 - 4957. Nucleophilic catalysis generally also favors such Michael addition reactions, as discussed for nitrogen nucleophiles used with acrylamide catalyzed by imidazolium chloride (see Molecules 2019, 24(23), 4224). A compound of formula (III) can be reacted with a compound of formula Z 1 -OH and Z 1 -SH to give compounds of formula (Ih) and (Ii), respectively. Such Michael addition reactions of alcohols and thiols are known in the literature, for example, see Polym, Chem. 2018, 9(38), 4716 - 4723 (alcohol Michael addition); Org. Biomol. Chem. 2020, 18, 6364 - 6377 (thiol Michael addition). There are a variety of methods known to those skilled in the art that can be used for Michael addition with carbon nucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl derivatives (giving compounds of formula (Ij)). These have been reviewed in Tetrahedron Organic Chemistry Series, Conjugate Addition Reactions in Organic Synthesis, Elsevier, 1992, Volume 9, pages 1 - 61. Michael reaction addition of boronic acid derivatives using a catalyst system such as 2.5 mol% [RhCl(C2H4)2]2 / (±)-BINAP (5 mol%) in the presence of K3PO4 base in an inert solvent such as dioxane at a temperature between 50 °C and 100 °C to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is also known. Such reactions are also described in the literature, for example, in Adv. Synth. Catal. 2013, 355, 1874 - 1880.
[0647] Salts of the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, acid addition salts of the compounds of formula (I) are obtained by treatment with a suitable acid or a suitable ion exchange reagent, and salts with bases are obtained by treatment with a suitable base or with a suitable ion exchange reagent.
[0648] Salts of the compounds of formula (I) can be converted in a conventional manner into the free compounds (I), into acid addition salts (e.g. by treatment with a suitable basic compound or with a suitable ion-exchange reagent), and into salts with bases (e.g. by treatment with a suitable acid or with a suitable ion-exchange reagent).
[0649] Salts of the compounds of formula (I) can be converted in a manner known per se into other salts of the compounds of formula (I), into acid addition salts, e.g. into other acid addition salts, e.g. by treatment of a salt of an inorganic acid (such as a hydrochloride) with a suitable metal salt of an acid (such as a salt of sodium, barium or silver, e.g. silver acetate) in a suitable solvent in which the inorganic salt formed (e.g. silver chloride) is insoluble and thus precipitates from the reaction mixture.
[0650] Depending on the procedure or reaction conditions, the compounds of formula (I) having salt-forming properties can be obtained in free form or in the form of salts.
[0651] The compounds of formula (I) and, where appropriate, their tautomers (in each case in free form or in salt form) can be present in the form of one of the possible isomers or in the form of a mixture of these isomers, e.g. in the form of pure isomers (such as enantiomers and / or diastereoisomers) or in the form of an isomer mixture (such as a mixture of enantiomers, e.g. a racemate; or a mixture of diastereoisomers), depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms present in the molecule, the absolute and relative configuration and / or depending on the configuration of the non-aromatic double bonds present in the molecule; the invention relates to the pure isomers as well as to all possible mixtures of isomers, and in each case in the context, even in each case where no stereochemical details are specifically mentioned, this should be understood in this sense.
[0652] Mixtures of diastereoisomers or racemates of the compounds of formula (I) in free form or in salt form (the obtaining of which can depend on the starting materials and the procedure chosen) can be separated in a known manner into the pure diastereoisomers or racemates on the basis of the physicochemical differences of these constituents, e.g. by fractional crystallization, distillation and / or chromatography.
[0653] Racemic mixtures (such as racemates) that can be obtained in a similar manner can be resolved into the optical enantiomers by known methods, for example by recrystallization from an optically active solvent; by chromatography on a chiral adsorbent, for example high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on acetylcellulose; by cleavage with a specific immobilized enzyme with the aid of a suitable microorganism; via the formation of inclusion compounds, for example using a chiral crown ether in which only one enantiomer is complexed; or by conversion into diastereomeric salts, for example by reacting the basic end product racemate with an optically active acid (such as a carboxylic acid, for example camphoric acid, tartaric acid or malic acid, or a sulfonic acid, for example camphorsulfonic acid), and separating the resulting diastereomeric mixture, for example by fractional crystallization based on their different solubilities, to give diastereomers, from which the desired enantiomer can be liberated by the action of a suitable reagent (such as a basic reagent).
[0654] The pure diastereomers or enantiomers can be obtained according to the invention not only by separating suitable mixtures of isomers, but also by generally known methods of diastereoselective or enantioselective synthesis, for example by carrying out the process according to the invention with starting materials having the appropriate stereochemistry.
[0655] If the individual components have different biological activities, it is advantageous in each case to separate or synthesize the biologically more effective isomers, such as enantiomers or diastereomers or mixtures of isomers, such as mixtures of enantiomers or mixtures of diastereomers.
[0656] As an example, a compound having more than one asymmetric carbon atom can exist in diastereomeric forms, which can optionally be separated by chromatography, such as supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with a chiral column. Such diastereomers can exhibit different fungicidal activity profiles, but all isomers and diastereomers form part of the invention.
[0657] The compounds of formula (I) have at least three chiral carbon atoms (three stereocenters, where the asterisk (*) indicates a chiral carbon atom), such that at least eight stereoisomers are available. These at least eight stereoisomers consist of four pairs of enantiomers.

[0670] The compounds of formula (I) according to the invention can be used in the agricultural sector and related fields of use, for example, as active ingredients for controlling phytopathogens, or on inanimate materials for controlling spoilage microorganisms or organisms potentially harmful to humans. These novel compounds are characterized by excellent activity at low application rates, good plant tolerance, and environmental safety. They have very useful therapeutic, prophylactic, and systemic properties and can be used to protect many cultivated plants. The compounds of formula (I) can be used to inhibit or destroy pests that appear on plants or plant parts (fruits, flowers, leaves, stems, tubers, roots) of different useful plant crops, while also protecting those later-growing plant parts from, for example, infestation by phytopathogenic microorganisms.

[0672] It is also possible to use the compounds of formula (I) according to the invention as fungicides. As used herein, the term "fungicide" means a compound that controls, modifies, or prevents the growth of fungi. The term "fungicidally effective amount" when used means the amount of such a compound or combination of such compounds that is capable of having an effect on fungal growth. The effects of control or modification include all deviations from natural development, such as killing, retardation, etc., and prevention includes forming a barrier or other defense within or on the plant to prevent fungal infestation.
[0673] It is also possible to use the compounds of formula (I) according to the invention as seed dressings for treating plant propagation materials (e.g., seeds, if fruits, tubers, or grains) or plant cuttings to protect them from fungal infections and from phytopathogenic fungi present in the soil. The propagation materials can be treated with a composition comprising a compound of formula (I) before planting: for example, the seeds can be dressed before sowing. The active compound of formula (I) can also be applied to the grains (coating) by impregnating the seeds in a liquid formulation or by coating them with a solid formulation. The composition can also be applied to the planting site when planting the propagation materials, for example, applied to the furrows of the seeds during sowing. The invention also relates to such methods of treating plant propagation materials and to plant propagation materials so treated.
[0674] In addition, the compounds of formula (I) according to the invention can be used to control fungi in related fields, for example, in the protection of industrial materials (including wood and wood-related technical products), in food storage, and in hygiene management.
[0675] In addition, the present invention can also be used to protect non-living materials (such as wood, wall panels, and coatings) from fungal attack.

Examples of crops that have been made tolerant to imidazolinones (such as imazamox) by conventional breeding methods (mutation) are summer rape (canola). Examples of crops that have been made tolerant to herbicides or classes of herbicides by genetic engineering methods include glyphosate-resistant and glufosinate-resistant maize varieties that are commercially available under the Herculex and trade names.
[0680] The term "useful plant" shall also be understood to include useful plants that have been so transformed by the use of recombinant DNA technology that they are capable of synthesizing one or more selectively acting toxins, such as those known, for example, from toxin-producing bacteria, in particular those of the genus Bacillus.
[0681] Examples of such plants are (maize variety expressing the CryIA(b) toxin); YieldGard (maize variety expressing the CryIIIB(b1) toxin); YieldGard (maize variety expressing the CryIA(b) and CryIIIB(b1) toxins); (maize variety expressing the Cry9(c) toxin); Herculex (maize variety expressing the CryIF(a2) toxin and the enzyme phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase (PAT) conferring tolerance to the herbicide glufosinate); NuCOTN (cotton variety expressing the CryIA(c) toxin); Bollgard (cotton variety expressing the CryIA(c) toxin); Bollgard (cotton variety expressing the CryIA(c) and CryIIA(b) toxins); (cotton variety expressing the VIP toxin); (potato variety expressing the CryIIIA toxin); GT Advantage (GA21 glyphosate tolerance trait), CB Advantage (CB trait of Ostrinia nubilalis), RW (western corn rootworm trait), and

Hybrid toxins are recombinantly produced by new combinations of different domains of those proteins (see, for example, WO 02 / 15701). Truncated toxins, such as truncated Cry1Ab, are known. In the case of modified toxins, one or more amino acids of the naturally occurring toxin are replaced. In such amino acid substitutions, preferably a non-naturally occurring protease recognition sequence is inserted into the toxin, for example, in the case of Cry3A055, a cathepsin-G-recognition sequence was inserted into the Cry3A toxin (see WO 2003 / 018810).
[0685] Examples of such toxins or transgenic plants capable of synthesizing such toxins are disclosed, for example, in EP-0374753, WO93 / 07278, WO 95 / 34656, EP 0427529, EP 0451878, and WO 03 / 052073.
[0686] Methods for preparing such transgenic plants are generally known to those skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the above-mentioned publications. CryI-type deoxyribonucleic acids and their preparation are known, for example, from WO 95 / 34656, EP 0367474, EP 0401979, and WO 90 / 13651.

It includes the soil, the seeds and the seedlings, together with the established vegetation.
[0699] The term "plant" refers to all the tangible parts of a plant, including seeds, seedlings, saplings, roots, tubers, stems, stalks, leaves and fruits.
[0700] The term "plant propagation material" shall be understood to mean the reproductive parts of plants, such as seeds, which can be used for the propagation of plants, and vegetative material, such as cuttings or tubers (e.g. potatoes). Seeds (in the strict sense), roots, fruits, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes and parts of plants may be mentioned, for example. Germinated plants and young plants which are to be transplanted after germination or after emergence may also be mentioned. These young plants can be protected before transplantation by being treated completely or partially by drenching. Preferably, "plant propagation material" shall be understood to mean seeds.
[0701] The compounds of formula (I) according to the invention can be used in unmodified form or, preferably, together with auxiliaries which are conventionally employed in the field of formulations. For this purpose, they can be conveniently formulated in known manner as emulsifiable concentrates, coatable pastes, directly sprayable or dilutable solutions or suspensions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts, granules and also encapsulations, for example in polymeric substances. For the type of composition, the method of application, such as spraying, atomizing, dusting, broadcasting, spreading, or watering, is selected according to the intended purpose and the circumstances at the time. The compositions can also contain further auxiliaries, such as stabilizers, defoamers, viscosity regulators, binders or tackifiers, together with fertilizers, micronutrient donors or other formulations for obtaining special effects.
[0702] Suitable carriers and auxiliaries, for example for agricultural use, can be solid or liquid and are substances which are useful in formulation technology, such as natural or regenerated mineral substances, solvents, dispersants, wetting agents, tackifiers, thickeners, binders or fertilizers. Such carriers are described, for example, in WO 1997 / 33890.
[0703] A suspension concentrate is an aqueous formulation in which finely divided solid particles of the active compound are suspended. Such formulations contain anti-settling agents and dispersants and can further contain wetting agents to enhance the activity, as well as defoamers and crystal growth inhibitors. In use, these concentrates are diluted in water and are generally applied as sprays to the area to be treated. The amount of the active ingredient can range from 0.5% to 95% of the concentrate.
[0704] Wettable powders are in the form of finely divided particles that are readily dispersible in water or other liquid carriers. These particles contain the active ingredient retained in a solid matrix. Typical solid matrices include fuller's earth, kaolin, silica, and other readily wettable organic or inorganic solids. Wettable powders usually contain from 5% to 95% of the active ingredient plus small amounts of wetting agents, dispersants, or emulsifiers.
[0705] Emulsifiable concentrates are homogeneous liquid compositions that are dispersible in water or other liquids and can consist entirely of the active compound with liquid or solid emulsifiers, or can also contain liquid carriers such as xylene, heavy aromatic naphtha, isophorone, and other non-volatile organic solvents. In use, these concentrates are dispersed in water or other liquids and are usually applied as sprays to the area to be treated. The amount of active ingredient can range from 0.5% to 95% of the concentrate.
[0706] Granular formulations include both extrudates and coarser granules and are usually applied to the area to be treated without dilution. Typical carriers for granular formulations include sand, fuller's earth, attapulgite clay, bentonite, montmorillonite, vermiculite, perlite, calcium carbonate, brick, pumice, pyrophyllite, kaolin, dolomite, stucco, wood flour, ground corn cobs, ground peanut hulls, sugar, sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, sodium silicate, sodium borate, magnesium oxide, mica, iron oxide, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, antimony oxide, cryolite, gypsum, diatomaceous earth, calcium sulfate, and other organic or inorganic materials that absorb the active compound or can be coated with the active compound. Granular formulations usually contain from 5% to 25% of the active ingredient, which can include surfactants such as heavy aromatic naphtha, kerosene, and other petroleum fractions, or vegetable oils; and / or adhesives such as dextrin, glue, or synthetic resins.
[0707] Dusts are free-flowing mixtures of the active ingredient with finely divided solids such as talc, clay, flour, and other organic and inorganic solids that act as dispersants and carriers.
[0708] Microcapsules are typically droplets or particles of an active ingredient encapsulated within an inert, porous shell that permits the encapsulated material to escape into the environment at a controlled rate. The diameter of the encapsulated droplets is typically from 1 to 50 microns. The encapsulated liquid typically comprises from 50% to 95% by weight of the capsule and may contain solvents in addition to the active compound. The encapsulated particles are generally porous particles in which a porous membrane seals the particle orifice, retaining the active species in liquid form within the particle pores. The diameter of the particles typically ranges from 1 mm to 1 cm and preferably from 1 mm to 2 mm. The particles are formed by extrusion, aggregation or spheronization, or are naturally occurring. Examples of such materials are vermiculite, sintered clay, kaolin, attapulgite clay, sawdust and carbon grains. The shell or membrane materials include natural and synthetic rubbers, fibrous materials, styrene-butadiene copolymers, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylates, polyesters, polyamides, polyureas, polyurethanes and starch xanthates.
[0709] Other useful formulations for agrochemical applications include simple solutions of the active ingredient in solvents such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylenes and other organic solvents in which the active ingredient is completely soluble at the desired concentration. Pressurized sprays may also be used, in which the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided form as a result of the evaporation of a low-boiling dispersant solvent carrier.
[0710] Suitable agricultural adjuvants and carriers useful for formulating the compositions of the present invention in the above formulation types are well known to those skilled in the art.

Water is usually the preferred carrier for diluting the concentrate.
[0712] Suitable solid carriers include, for example, talc, titanium dioxide, pyrophyllite clay, silica, attapulgite clay, kieselguhr, chalk, diatomaceous earth, lime, calcium carbonate, bentonite, bleaching earth, cottonseed hulls, wheat flour, soybean flour, pumice, wood flour, walnut shell powder, and lignin.
[0713] A wide range of surfactants are advantageously employed in the liquid and solid compositions, especially those designed to be diluted with a carrier prior to application. These reagents usually make up 0.1% to 15% by weight of the formulation when in use. They can be anionic, cationic, nonionic, or polymeric in nature and can be used as emulsifiers, wetting agents, suspending agents, or for other purposes. Typical surfactants include alkyl sulfates, such as diethanolammonium lauryl sulfate; alkyl aryl sulfonates, such as calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate; alkylphenol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as nonylphenol-C 18 ethoxylate; alcohol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as tridecanol-C 16Ethoxylates; soaps such as sodium stearate; alkylnaphthalenesulfonates such as sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulfonate; salts of dialkyl esters of sulfosuccinic acid such as sodium di(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate; sorbitan esters such as sorbitan oleate; quaternary amines such as lauryltrimethylammonium chloride; polyethylene glycol esters of fatty acids such as polyethylene glycol stearate; block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide; and salts of mono- and dialkyl phosphates.

SAR inducers are known and described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. US 6,919,298 and include, for example, salicylates and the commercial SAR inducer acibenzolar-S-methyl.
[0718] The compounds of formula (I) according to the present invention are generally used in the form of agrochemical compositions and can be applied simultaneously or sequentially with additional compounds to the crop area or plants to be treated. For example, these additional compounds can be fertilizers or micronutrient donors or other preparations that affect plant growth. They can also be selective or non-selective herbicides, together with insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides, or mixtures of several of these preparations, if desired together with additional carriers, surfactants, or adjuvants commonly employed in the formulation art to facilitate application.

[0741] A mixture of active ingredients of compounds selected from the compounds of formula (I), (I-A), (I-A1), (I-A2), (I-A3), (I-A4), (I-A5), or (I-A6), or from the compounds listed in Tables B-1 to B-27 or in Table P (below) is preferably in a mixing ratio of 100:1 to 1:100, in particular 50:1 to 1:50, more particularly 20:1 to 1:20, even more particularly 10:1 to 1:10 and still more particularly 5:1 to 1:5. Those mixing ratios are by weight.
[0742] A mixture as described above can be used in a method for controlling pests, which method comprises applying a composition comprising a mixture as described above to the pests or their environment, except for methods for treating the human or animal body by surgery or therapy and diagnostic methods carried out on the human or animal body.
[0743] Compounds comprising a compound selected from the compounds of formula (I), (I-A), (I-A1), (I-A2), (I-A3), (I-A4), (I-A5), or (I-A6), or a compound selected from the compounds listed in Tables B-1 to B-27 or the compounds listed in Table P (below), and a mixture of one or more active ingredients as described above can be applied, for example, in a single "ready-to-use" form, in a combined spray mixture consisting of separate formulations of the individual active ingredient components, such as a "tank mix", and when applied in a sequential manner, i.e., one after the other within a reasonably short period of time (such as a few hours or days), the individual active ingredients are used in combination. The order of application of a compound selected from the compounds of formula (I), (I-A), (I-A1), (I-A2), (I-A3), (I-A4), (I-A5), or (I-A6), or a compound selected from the compounds listed in Tables B-1 to B-27 or the compounds listed in Table P (below), and one or more active ingredients as described above is not critical for carrying out the invention.
[0744] The compositions according to the invention can also contain further solid or liquid auxiliaries, such as stabilizers, for example unepoxidized or epoxidized vegetable oils (such as epoxidized coconut oil, rapeseed oil or soybean oil), defoamers (such as silicone oils), preservatives, viscosity regulators, binders and / or tackifiers, fertilizers or other active ingredients for obtaining specific effects, such as bactericides, fungicides, nematicides, plant activators, molluscicides or herbicides.
[0745] The compositions according to the invention are prepared in a manner known per se, in the absence of auxiliaries, for example by grinding, sieving and / or compressing the solid active ingredient; and in the presence of at least one auxiliary, for example by intimately mixing the active ingredient with one or more auxiliaries and / or by grinding the active ingredient together with one or more auxiliaries. These methods for preparing the compositions and the use of the compound (I) for preparing these compositions are also the subject of the invention.
[0746] Another aspect of the invention relates to the use of a composition according to the invention comprising at least one compound of formula (I) or at least one individual compound preferably defined herein, or a fungicidal or insecticidal mixture comprising at least one compound of formula (I) or at least one individual compound preferably defined herein (mixed with other fungicides or insecticides as described above), for controlling or preventing the infestation of plants (such as useful plants (e.g., crop plants)), their propagation material (e.g., seeds), harvested crops (e.g., harvested food crops), or non-living materials by insects or phytopathogenic microorganisms (preferably fungal organisms).
[0747] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method for controlling or preventing plants (such as useful plants (e.g., crop plants)), their propagation materials (such as seeds), harvested crops (such as harvested food crops), or inanimate materials from being infested by phytopathogenic microorganisms or spoilage microorganisms or organisms potentially harmful to humans (especially fungal organisms), the method comprising applying a compound of formula (I) according to the present invention or preferably an individual compound as defined herein as an active ingredient to these plants, parts thereof or their sites, their propagation materials, or any part of these inanimate materials.
[0748] Controlling or preventing means reducing the infestation by insects or phytopathogenic microorganisms or spoilage microorganisms or organisms potentially harmful to humans (especially fungal organisms) to a level proven to be improved.
[0749] A preferred method for controlling or preventing crop plants from being infested by phytopathogenic microorganisms (especially fungal organisms) or insects is foliar application, which comprises applying a compound of formula (I) according to the present invention or an agrochemical composition containing at least one compound of formula (I). The frequency and rate of application will depend on the risk of infestation by the corresponding pathogen or insect. However, the compound of formula (I) according to the present invention can also penetrate plants via the roots (systemic action) through the soil by soaking the site of the plants with a liquid formulation or by applying the compound in solid form, for example in granular form, to the soil (soil application). In rice crops, such granules can be applied to flooded paddy fields. The compound of formula (I) can also be applied to seeds (coating) by impregnating the seeds or tubers with a liquid formulation of a fungicide or coating them with a solid formulation.
[0750] Formulations (such as compositions containing a compound of formula (I) according to the present invention and, if desired, solid or liquid auxiliaries or monomers for encapsulating the compound of formula (I)) can be prepared in a known manner, typically by intimately mixing and / or grinding the compound with extenders (such as solvents, solid carriers and optionally surface-active compounds (surfactants)).
[0751] Advantageous application rates are generally 5 g to 2 kg of active ingredient (a.i.) per hectare (ha), preferably 10 g to 1 kg a.i. / ha, most preferably 20 g to 600 g a.i. / ha. When used as a seed soaking reagent, a suitable dose is 10 mg to 1 g of active substance per kg of seeds.
[0752] As used herein, the term "g a.i. / ha" refers to an application rate given in grams [g] of active ingredient [a.i.] per unit surface [ha]. The unit hectare (symbol ha) is a metric unit of area equal to the area of a square with a side length of 100 m (1 hm 2 ) or 10,000 square meters. The hectare is a commonly used unit of area in the metric system.
[0753] When the combinations according to the invention are used for treating seeds, application rates of from 0.001 to 50 g of the compound of formula (I) per kg of seeds, preferably from 0.01 to 10 g / kg of seeds, are generally sufficient.
[0754] Compositions comprising a compound of formula (I) according to the invention are preferably applied preventively (i.e. before the development of the disease) or curatively (i.e. after the development of the disease).
[0755] The compositions according to the invention can be employed in any conventional form, for example in the form of a two-pack, a powder for dry seed treatment (DS), an emulsion for seed treatment (ES), a flowable concentrate for seed treatment (FS), a solution for seed treatment (LS), a water dispersible powder for seed treatment (WS), a capsule suspension for seed treatment (CF), a gel for seed treatment (GF), an emulsion concentrate (EC), a suspension concentrate (SC), a suspoemulsion (SE), a capsule suspension (CS), a water dispersible granule (WG), an emulsifiable granule (EG), a water-in-oil emulsion (EO), an oil-in-water emulsion (EW), a microemulsion (ME), a dispersible oil suspension (OD), an oil suspension (OF), an oil-soluble liquid (OL), a soluble concentrate (SL), an ultra-low volume suspension (SU), an ultra-low volume liquid (UL), a technical concentrate (TK), a dispersible concentrate (DC), a wettable powder (WP) or any technically feasible formulation in combination with agriculturally acceptable adjuvants.
[0756] Such compositions can be produced in a conventional manner, for example by mixing the active ingredient with suitable formulation inert ingredients (diluents, solvents, fillers and optionally other formulation ingredients such as surfactants, biocides, antifreeze agents, adhesives, thickeners and compounds providing auxiliary effects). Conventional slow release formulations intended for long-lasting efficacy can also be employed. In particular, formulations to be applied in spray form, such as water dispersible concentrates (e.g. EC, SC, DC, OD, SE, EW, EO, etc.), wettable powders and granules, can contain surfactants such as wetting agents and dispersants and other compounds providing auxiliary effects, such as condensation products of formaldehyde with naphthalene sulfonates, alkylaryl sulfonates, lignin sulfonates, fatty alkyl sulfates and ethoxylated alkyl phenols and ethoxylated fatty alcohols.
[0757] The combination and diluent according to the invention are used in the form of a suitable seed dressing formulation, for example in the form of an aqueous suspension or a dry powder having good adhesiveness to seeds, and the seed dressing formulation is applied to the seeds in a manner known per se. Such seed dressing formulations are known in the art. The seed dressing formulation may contain a single active ingredient or a combination of active ingredients in encapsulated form, for example as a slow-release capsule or a microcapsule.
[0758] Generally, these formulations contain 0.01% to 90% by weight of an active agent, 0% to 20% of an agriculturally acceptable surfactant, and 10% to 99.99% of a solid or liquid formulation inert agent and one or more adjuvants. The active agent consists of at least a compound of formula (I) according to the invention, optionally together with other active agents (especially microbicides or preservatives, etc.). The concentrated form of the composition usually contains 2% to 80% by weight, preferably 5% to 70% by weight of the active agent. The application form of the formulation may contain 0.01% to 20% by weight, preferably 0.01% to 5% by weight of the active agent. However, commercial products will preferably be formulated as concentrates, and the end user will generally use diluted formulations.
[0759] However, it is preferred to formulate commercial products as concentrates, and the end user will generally use diluted formulations.
[0760] The application rate varies within a wide range and depends on the nature of the soil, the application method, the crop plant, the pest to be controlled, the main climatic conditions, and other factors governed by the application method, the application time, and the target crop. Generally speaking, the compound can be applied at a rate of 1 to 2000 l / ha, especially 10 to 1000 l / ha.
