Description

[Background technology]

[0001] Insects, fungi, and plants such as monocots and dicots have developed multiple self-defense mechanisms against the effects of pesticides. These include the production of metabolites that partially or completely neutralize the active ingredients exposed to pesticides, or convert pesticides into inactive substances through biocatalysis. In practice, these mechanisms reduce or eliminate the effects of these active ingredients.

[0002] Enzymes belonging to the cytochrome P450 family and esterases are one of the main means that insects use to neutralize insecticides. Their metabolic pathway is based on the detoxification and breakdown of active molecules. This pathway also promotes general insect metabolism.

[0003] Cytochrome P450 and esterases are well-known and widely used synergistic agents (piperonyl butoxide (PBO)). PBO is a semi-synthetic product, but it is somewhat toxic and poorly biodegradable. Furthermore, the effects of PBO are exerted in different ways against different P450 cytochromes and different esterases present in insects, fungi, weeds, and various pathogens, making comparisons between different species impossible.

[0004] Many countries have banned the use of PBOs in agricultural plant protection products, particularly in organic farming. While PBOs are highly effective, they need to be replaced by natural products or derivatives that are less toxic to the environment and have a wider range of applications.

[0005] Fatty acids have been widely documented for use in pesticides. For example, US4975110 describes an environmentally friendly herbicide composition containing a fatty acid and one or more surfactants as active ingredients. The fatty acid in these herbicide compositions includes pelargonic acid, which can be used alone or as the main component of a mixture of fatty acids such as caprylic acid, lauric acid, and undecanoic acid.

[0006] US5700473 describes a non-phytotoxic pyrethrin-based arthropod anthelmintic containing triglycerides derived from plant seed oil, pyrethrum extract, and one or more surfactants.

[0007] US7820594 describes a pesticide composition particularly useful as a fungicidal or herbicidal composition, comprising one or more fatty acids and one or more organic acids other than fatty acids. When combined with fatty acids, organic acids act as potent synergists of fatty acids.

[0008] US8993004 and WO2010115065 describe compositions comprising at least one pesticide and a mixture of plant-derived unsaturated C12-C26 fatty acids and / or salts thereof and C6-C14 saturated fatty acids and / or salts thereof.

[0009] US8097631 describes a bactericidal composition containing cyprodinil, the active substance, in addition to an unsaturated C18 fatty acid selected from oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid.

[0010] US11122801 describes the use of mono and polyunsaturated acids C6-C24 or their derivatives as enzyme inhibitors, particularly cytochrome P450 and esterases, in pesticide formulations.

[0011] EP3346835 describes an insecticidal or acaricidal composition comprising an arginine salt of a fatty acid, wherein the fatty acid comprises one or more unsaturated fatty acids having 14 to 22 carbon atoms and one or more fatty acids having 8 to 18 carbon atoms, and the weight ratio of the unsaturated fatty acid having 14 to 22 carbon atoms to the saturated fatty acid having 8 to 18 carbon atoms is at least 1.

[0012] WO2018233869 describes an insecticide formulation containing a naturally derived pyrethrin mixture and C16-C24 unsaturated fatty acids that enhance the efficacy of natural pyrethrins.

[0013] WO2020109729 describes compositions comprising at least one linear or branched ω-hydroxylated fatty acid or a derivative thereof, or a mixture of such linear or branched ω-hydroxylated fatty acids or derivatives thereof, and their use for the protection of plants against pathogens.

[0014] WO2020187656 describes the use of novel combinations of several active ingredients with at least one fatty acid or its derivatives for the control of animal and microbial parasites.

[0015] CN112075428 describes the use of linoleic acid as a pesticide.

[0016] WO2021099271 and WO2021175947 describe pesticide compositions comprising one or more C12-C24 fatty acids, their salts, esters, or mixtures thereof, and at least one additional activator as a pesticide.

[0017] JP2021165303 describes pest control compositions comprising natural pyrethrins and at least one naturally derived component belonging to one of the following classes: sesquiterpene lactones; sterols; flavonoids; fatty acids; monoterpenes; sesquiterpenes; triterpeneols; alcohols (ceryl alcohol, (Z)-3-ethen-1-ol, 1-octen-3-ol); alkanes, alkenes, and several derivatives containing aromatic groups; carotenoids; ketones; esters ((Z)-3-hexen-1-ol acetate, 1-octen-3-ol acetate, 3-cyclohexen-1-ol acetate, 3-hexenyl-2-methylbutanoate, 3-hexenyl-3-methylbutanoate, hexyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, β-phenylethyl isovalerate); vegetable oils.

[0018] US5288483, WO0158260, EP2364590, CN102370599, and WO2013093647 describe insecticide formulations containing naturally derived and synthetic fatty substances, including alcohols, hydroxy alcohols, and their derivatives such as esters and carbonates (carbonate esters), with carbon chain lengths of approximately 8 to 22, along with the active ingredient. While these alcohols and derivatives are included as additives in the formulations, the documents do not suggest that activity is exerted by these components.

[0019] GB2095109 describes an insecticidal composition containing one or more pyrethroid insecticides and a long-chain fatty alkanol. The concentration of the alkanol is 0.01 to 2% by weight, preferably 0.02 to 1% by weight, and the preferred fatty alkanol is 1-hexadecanol. In this case as well, the active role of the long-chain fatty alkanol is not suggested or described. Furthermore, pyrethroid synergists such as PBO may also be included in the composition, and those skilled in the art may not consider the same aliphatic alkanol as an active ingredient.

[0020] CN106857635 describes a household insecticide characterized by the following composition: 2-10 parts by weight of PBO, 3-10 parts by weight of tetramethrin, a pyrethrum derivative, 2-10 parts by weight of a synergist, and 70-90 parts by weight of water, where the synergist is n-butanethiol and octyldodecanol, in a weight ratio of 1-2 or 2-1. The simultaneous presence of butanethiol and octyldodecanol is necessary. A specific proportion of octyldodecanol can promote the penetration of n-butanethiol and the effector, thereby improving the insecticidal effect.

[0021] EP3964068 describes a glycol compound having an alkane with 4 to 7 carbon atoms, more specifically a hydroxyl group bonded to each of two adjacent carbon atoms of 1,2-hexanediol, as an insecticidal efficacy enhancer that can increase the vaporization of the product upon heating and diffusion. The content of the glycol compound in the aqueous insecticidal composition is 2 to 70% by weight, more preferably 6 to 60% by weight. When diols other than 1,2-hexanediol were tested, no similar effect was observed. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
