Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a bisphosphonic acid and its salt compounds, their preparation methods, and their applications in the preparation of herbicides. Background Technology
[0002] In modern agricultural production, weeds are one of the key factors affecting crop growth, development, yield, and quality. Traditional weeding methods, such as manual and mechanical weeding, not only consume a lot of manpower, resources, and time, but are also difficult to implement thoroughly and are inefficient in large-scale agricultural production. Chemical weeding, due to its high efficiency, convenience, and economy, has gradually become the main means of weed control in modern agriculture. Phosphorus-containing compounds hold a unique position in the field of herbicides. Phosphorus can participate in various physiological metabolic processes in organisms, and herbicides designed based on phosphorus-containing structures often have unique targets and mechanisms of action. Some phosphorus-containing herbicides have been widely used in agricultural production, showing good activity and selectivity in controlling specific weed species. However, with the continuous improvement of agricultural production requirements and the intensification of weed resistance problems, it is of great significance to develop new, highly efficient, low-toxicity, environmentally friendly phosphorus-containing herbicides with novel structures and mechanisms of action. This invention provides a novel herbicidal bisphosphonic acid and its salt compounds. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, the present invention aims to provide a novel, highly efficient, low-toxicity, environmentally friendly bisphosphonic acid and its salt compounds with a novel structure, their preparation method, and their application in the preparation of herbicides.
[0004] This invention defines a bisphosphonic acid and its salt compounds, the general structural formula of which is shown in formula (I):
[0005] ,
[0006] Where: X is H, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, transition metal, organic amine, or NH4. + The alkali metals include Li, Na, and K; the alkaline earth metals include Be, Ca, and Mg; and the transition metals include Zn, Cu, and Fe.
[0007] Furthermore, the present invention also specifies a method for preparing the aforementioned bisphosphonic acid and its salt compounds, specifically as follows: using methyl (3-oxopropyl)phosphonic acid as shown in formula (II) as the starting material, it is first reacted with diethyl methylphosphonite in the presence of trimethylchlorosilane to generate ethyl (3-(methylphosphono)-1-trimethylsiloxypropyl)-methylphosphonic acid as shown in formula (III). The ethyl (3-(methylphosphono)-1-trimethylsiloxypropyl)-methylphosphonic acid is then acidified in the presence of hydrochloric acid to obtain the product [1-hydroxy-3-(methylphosphono)propyl]-methylphosphonic acid.

[0013] (3) The [1-hydroxy-3-(methylphosphono)propyl]-methylphosphonic acid obtained in step (2) reacts with an alkaline substance. The reaction is completed when the pH is approximately 7. Then, the mixture is cooled to room temperature and dried by rotary evaporation to obtain the corresponding bisphosphonate compound.
[0014] Furthermore, the present invention also specifies that the molar ratio of diethyl methyl phosphite to methyl (3-oxopropyl)phosphonic acid in step (1) is 1:1 to 1.5; and the molar ratio of trimethylchlorosilane agent to diethyl methyl phosphite is 1:1.
[0015] Furthermore, the present invention specifies that the solvent for recrystallization in step (2) is methanol.
[0016] Furthermore, the present invention further specifies that the alkaline substance in step (3) is Li2CO3, NaOH, KOH, CuCO3, CaCO3, MgCO3, Zn(OH)2, ammonia, dimethylamine, diethylamine or isopropylamine.

This novel bisphosphonic acid herbicide lead compound is beneficial for improving weed removal efficiency.
[0031] 2) In the preparation process of this invention, trimethylchlorosilane is used as a key reagent to promote the condensation reaction of methyl (3-oxopropyl)phosphonic acid and diethyl methylphosphonate. This is the key to constructing the core carbon-carbon bond and forming a specific functional group (trimethylsiloxy group). It only requires two steps to synthesize from the starting material to the final core acid compound. The reaction conditions are mild and the post-processing is convenient, which is conducive to its widespread application.
[0032] 3) This invention yields several different salt compounds, which can alter the water solubility, hygroscopicity, and stability of the compounds, thereby adapting to different formulation needs (such as aqueous solutions, soluble granules, etc.). For example, metal salts such as zinc and copper may have bactericidal or nutritional functions, potentially leading to synergistic effects of weed control, bactericidal / or nutritional action. Furthermore, through salt formation, the toxicity and environmental behavior of the product can be regulated. Attached Figure Description

[0064] Example 12 Bioactivity Test:
[0065] This invention tests the herbicidal bioactivity of the products of Examples 7-11 according to the "NY / T 1155.4-2006 Guidelines for Indoor Bioassays of Pesticides - Herbicides - Part 4: Activity Assay Test - Foliar Spray Method".
[0066] The specific process of using the novel agricultural antibiotic herbicide of this invention for weed control is as follows:
[0067] Preparation of reagent: Weigh a certain mass of the product of Examples 7-11, dissolve it in water to prepare a 10% mother liquor, and then dilute it with 0.1% Tween-80 water to a concentration of 600 gai / ha for later use.
[0068] Weed targets: barnyard grass, crabgrass, foxtail grass, velvetleaf, amaranth, and lambsquarters.
[0069] Crop targets: soybeans, corn, rapeseed, rice, wheat, sorghum.
[0070] Planting method: Sow several groups of target seeds in plastic pots with a diameter of 8.0cm. After sowing, cover with 0.2-0.5cm of soil, add water to the bottom, and then place in a greenhouse for cultivation. The greenhouse temperature is about 26±2℃.
[0071] Application method: At the 3-4 leaf stage of the target, half of the targets were treated with foliar spray of the product of Examples 7-11 at a concentration of 600 gai / ha, and the other half was the control group. The amount of pesticide was applied quantitatively, and the plants were allowed to stand indoors until the pesticide was absorbed by the leaves. Then the plants were moved into the greenhouse for cultivation and trial harvesting under normal management. The weed control effect was visually assessed 14 days after the application.
[0072] Investigation methods: After the application of the herbicide, the growth of the target plants and the symptoms of poisoning were observed regularly. 14 days after the application, the weed control efficacy and crop safety were visually assessed. The visual assessment method was: experienced testers directly assessed the target plant population in the field to estimate the aboveground coverage or degree of damage. For example, a weed control efficiency of 60% means that the growth of weeds (coverage, growth, etc.) was reduced by about 60% compared with the control group. The weed control activity is shown in Table 1, and the crop safety results are shown in Table 2.
[0073] Table 1. Visually observed control efficacy of the products from Examples 7-11 against six weeds.
[0074]
[0075] The bisphosphonic acid [1-hydroxy-3-(methylphosphonoyl)propyl]-methylphosphonic acid prepared in this invention contains multiple acidic hydroxyl groups and is highly polar. This may make it difficult for it to penetrate the waxy layer and lipid bilayer cell membrane on plant leaves or cell walls, thus failing to reach the target site and having no herbicidal activity against weeds. However, when it is made into a salt compound, it becomes an ionic compound with excellent water solubility. It can be absorbed by plants in the form of aqueous solution and transported and distributed in the plant through the vascular bundle system, eventually reaching the site of action. As can be seen from Table 1, the salt compounds of Examples 7-11 have certain efficacy against barnyard grass, crabgrass, foxtail grass, velvetleaf, amaranth, and lambsquarters. Among them, the copper and zinc salts of Examples 8-9 have a 100% control efficacy against foxtail grass, and the sodium, copper, and zinc salts of Examples 7-9 have a 100% control efficacy against lambsquarters.
[0076] Table 2. Safety results of the products from Examples 7-11 on six crops.
[0077]
[0078] Experiments showed that, 14 days after application, the salt compounds in Examples 7-11 exhibited good growth in crops such as soybeans, corn, rapeseed, rice, wheat, and sorghum, with no signs of poisoning. Therefore, the drug is safe for crops.
