[0209] COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING ONE OR MORE COMPOUNDS OF FORMULAE (1) AND (I)
[0210] The compounds of Formula (1) or compounds of Formula (I) according to the invention can be used as insecticides by themselves, but they can also be formulated into compositions. Therefore, in a third aspect, the present invention provides a composition comprising one or more compounds of Formula (1) or compounds of Formula (I) or an agrochemically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, an enantiomer, a tautomer, a rotamer or a deuterated compou nd thereof, and one or more auxiliaries and / or adjuvant, and optionally one or more further active ingredients. In a certain embodiment, the composition comprising one or more compounds of Formula (1) or compounds of Formula (I) is an agrochemical composition. Agrochemical compositions are generally intended to be applied to plants, for example to crop plants (including parts thereof such as seeds prior to harvest), preferably while in the field or in a greenhouse. In a certain embodiment, the composition comprising one or more compounds of Formula (1) or compounds of Formula (I) is a household composition. Household compositions are generally intended to be applied in inhabited areas such as buildings.
[0211] The compositions can be in various physical forms, e.g., in the form of dusting powders, gels, wettable powders, water-dispersible granules, water-dispersible tablets, effervescent pellets, emulsifiable concentrates, microemulsifiable concentrates, oil-in-water emulsions, oil-flowables, aqueous dispersions, oily dispersions, suspo-emulsions, capsule suspensions, emulsifiable granules, soluble liquids, water-soluble concentrates. Such compositions can either be used directly or diluted prior to use. The dilutions can be made, for example, with water, liquid fertilisers, micronutrients, biological organisms, oil or solvents.
[0212] The compositions according to the third aspect of the invention are prepared in a known manner, by mixing the compounds of Formula (1) or compounds of the Formula (I) with the one or more auxiliaries / adjuvants, and optionally one or more other active ingredients. In addition, the composition may comprise further additives that are conventional in this technical field, including but not limited to colorants, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, antifoams, preservatives, secondary thickeners, adhesives, gibberellins and water.
[0213] For example, the compositions can be prepared e.g. by mixing a compound according the first or second aspect of the present invention as the active ingredient with the adjuvant(s) in order to obtain compositions in the form of finely divided solids, granules, solutions, dispersions or emulsions. The active ingredients can also be formulated with other adjuvants, such as finely divided solids, mineral oils, oils of vegetable or animal origin, modified oils of vegetable or animal origin, organic solvents, water, surface-active substances or combinations thereof. The active ingredients can also be contained in very fine microcapsules. Microcapsules contain the active ingredients in a porous carrier. This enables the active ingredients to be released into the environment in controlled amounts (e.g. slow-release).
[0214] Microcapsules usually have a diameter of from 0.1 to 500 microns. They contain active ingredients in an amount of about from 25 to 95 % by weight of the capsule weight. The active ingredients can be in the form of a monolithic solid, in the form of fine particles in solid or liquid dispersion or in the form of a suitable solution. The encapsulating membranes can comprise, for example, natural or synthetic rubbers, cellulose, styrene / butadiene copolymers, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylate, polyesters, polyamides, polyureas, polyurethane or chemically modified polymers and starch xanthates or other polymers that are known to the person skilled in the art. Alternatively, very fine microcapsules can be formed in which the active ingredient is contained in the form of finely divided particles in a solid matrix of base substance, but the microcapsules are not themselves encapsulated.

The amount of oil additive in the composition according to the invention is generally from 0.01 to 10 %, based on the mixture to be applied. For example, the oil additive can be added to a spray tank in the desired concentration after a spray mixture has been prepared. Preferred oil additives comprise mineral oils or an oil of vegetable origin, for example rapeseed oil, olive oil or sunflower oil, emulsified vegetable oil, alkyl esters of oils of vegetable origin, for example the methyl derivatives, or an oil of animal origin, such as fish oil or beef tallow. Preferred oil additives comprise alkyl esters of C8-C22 fatty acids, especially the methyl derivatives of C12-C18 fatty acids, for example the methyl esters of lauric acid, palmitic acid and oleic acid (methyl laurate, methyl palmitate and methyl oleate, respectively). Many oil derivatives are known from the Compendium of Herbicide Adjuvants, 10thEdition, Southern Illinois University, 2010.
[0221] The inventive compositions generally comprise from 0.1 to 99 % by weight, especially from 0.1 to 95 % by weight, of compounds of the present invention and from 1 to 99.9 % by weight of a formulation adjuvant which preferably includes from 0 to 25 % by weight of a surface-active substance.

[0222] The rates of application vary within wide limits and depend on the nature of the soil, the method of application, the crop plant, the pest to be controlled, the prevailing climatic conditions, and other factors governed by the method of application, the time of application and the target crop. As a general guideline compounds may be applied at a rate of from 1 to 2000 l / ha, especially from 10 to 1000 l / ha.
[0223] Preferred formulations can have the following compositions (% refers to weight % unless otherwise indicated), wherein "active ingredient" refers to the compounds of the present invention:

The mixtures of the compounds of formula (I) with other insecticida lly, acaricidally and / or fungicidally active ingredients may also have further surprising advantages which can also be described, in a wider sense, as synergistic activity. For example, better tolerance by plants, reduced phytotoxicity, insects can be controlled in their different development stages or better behaviour during their production, for example during grinding or mixing, during their storage or during their use. Therefore, the composition according to the third aspect of the present invention may further contain one or more other active ingredients.

[0251] (c) Bait formulations
[0252] In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (1) or compound of formula (I) is formulated as a bait formulation. A bait formulation may be used in the control of household pests as per the sixth aspect of the present invention.
[0253] Thus, in some embodiments, said bait composition comprises, in addition to an insecticida lly effective amount of a compound of Formula (1) or compound of formula (I), at least one insect (household pest) food attractant and / or insect (household pest) food flavorant.
[0254] A food attractant provides for the insects' feed uptake (such as a food preferred by the target insect pest) and / or attracts the target insect pest to the insect bait composition when the insect is in the locus or vicinity, or attracts the insect over a distance (specific attractant), even if such food attractant material is not an insect food source, per se.
[0255] A food flavorant (phagostimulants) stimulates insect feeding of the bait material once the insecticide bait is encountered by the target insect pest. It is possible to employ mixtures of such constituents in the bait material. In some cases, a food attractant can also function as a food flavorant.
[0256] Each insect food attractant may be selected from the group consisting of: a harvested grain or legume, a protein, a carbohydrate, a lipid, and a cellulose material.
[0257] A harvested grain or legume may include, for example, wheat, barley, rye, oats, rice, sorghum, soybeans, corn, garbanzo, amaranth or potato. When a harvested grain is used, it may be used in the form of a flour, grit, or grain. Flours or grits are prepared for use in the bait by milling of the harvested grains or cereals to an appropriate size. Other examples include distiller's grain, starch, various bran materials such as wheat bran or rice bran, oatmeal, corn grits, corn chips, corn seeds, corn starch, various mixes such as corn-wheat mix, wheat seeds, whole wheat bread dough, defatted corn grits, brewer's malt, poultry mash, cereal powder such as, for example, wheat powder, maize powder, rice powder and rice bran, and starches such as, for example, potato starch and corn starch.
[0258] A protein may be contained in or obtained from, for example, meat, meat extract and milk powder, fish meal, fish extracts, or seafood, seafood extracts, insects, insect extracts or yeast, yeast extract, peanut butter, yeast lysates or soy protein hydrolysate. Other examples of protein from a natural source are milk protein (such as casein, sodium casein, calcium casein, lactalbumin, dried milk), plant protein (such as gluten, e.g. from wheat; soy extract, peanut extract, zein), animal protein (such as fish meal, meat meal, egg white, liver powder (e.g. from chicken liver or poultry liver), collagen, dried insects (such as crickets) or yeast. Preferred protein is milk protein and animal protein, more preferably animal protein, and especially dried insects.
[0259] A carbohydrate may be any known sugar, monosaccharide or disaccharide or a mixture thereof, preferably a carbohydrate available from a natural source. Examples are saccharose (sucrose), glucose, lactose, fructose, dextrose, maltose. Technical mixtures comprising sugar may also be used, such as granulated sugar, black sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses. In some embodiments, the sugar is a disaccharide such as saccharose. Other examples include various sugar mixtures with natural polysaccharides and / or proteins such as agar and grape jelly, sucrose and honey syrup, sugar and milk and the like. Additionally, there may be mentioned various sugars such as, for example, sucrose, maltose, arabinose, galactose, sorbitose, dextrose, fructose, sorbitol, corn syrup, maple syrup, molasses, coca-cola syrup, various types of invert sugar (Invertix), molasses honey and the like, and glycerol and the like.
[0260] A lipid may be a plant oil such as canola oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil or soybean oil, for example.
[0261] A cellulose material may be wood (pine), paper, (corrugated) cardboard, filter paper, purified cellulose and microcrystalline cellulose.
[0262] Examples of a specific food attractant or flavorant include: ethanol, acetic acid, ethyl acetate, citrus pulp, soybean oil, methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, ethylmethylamine, propylmethylamine, isopropylamine, tert-butylamine, 1-methylpyrrolidine, diethylamine, dimethylacetamide, furfuryl alcohol, 5-methyl-3-heptanone, geranyl butyrate, linalool, 1,3-diethylbenzene, 2-nonanone, (E)-2-hexanoic acid, ammonium acetate, ammonium phosphate, ammonia solution from 10 percent to 30 percent in water, putrescine, cadaverine, trimedlure, a trimedlure isomer, ceralure, a ceralure isomer, 4-[(4-acetyloxy)phenyl]- 2-butanone, methyleugenol, a fluorinated methyleugenol analogue, 1,7-dioxaspiro- 5,5-undecane.
[0263] The bait may include at least one nutritional feeding stimulant as a flavorant (phagostimulant) component which serves to give taste and flavor to the bait composition and / or to enhance feeding by the target insects. Said nutritional feeding stimulant may be selected from the group consisting of: a fatty acid, amino acid, sugar, carbohydrate, pectin, starche, salt, chitin, and essential plant oil. For example, peanut butter oil and apple cider vinegar can be mentioned as phagostimulants. Other examples of phagostimulants that can be employed in a bait formulation are, for example, an extract from meat, fish or insects. Others which are suitable for attraction include natural or synthetic aromas such as, for example, meat aromas, fish aromas, seafood aromas, onion aromas, milk aromas, butter aromas, cheese aromas, fruit aromas such as, for example, aromas of apple, apricot, banana, blackberry, cherry, currant, gooseberry, grapefruit, raspberry or strawberry (pure, syrup or extract).
[0264] A bait composition of the present invention may also contain one or more formulation ingredients selected from the list consisting of: a stabilizer, preservative, carrier, excipient, pheromone, kairomone, binder, gelling agent, surfactant and additive.
[0265] In some embodiments, a carrier is natural or synthetic, and associates with the compound according the first or second aspect of the present invention, facilitating its application to the locus to be treated. This carrier should be inert to the compound according the first or second aspect of the present invention and should be acceptable for use according to the third aspect of the present invention at the treatment locus. Herein the treatment locus refers to the location at which the compound according the first or second aspect of the present invention is made available to the insect pest. In some embodiments, the treatment locus means the area in which the target insect pest or insect pest population is found, is growing, or is established, or the area in which the target insect pest feeds.
[0266] In another embodiment, a food attractant also may serve as a carrier in the bait composition or matrix. For example, dried cobs of maize corn can be ground after removal of the seeds to form a coarse granular "corn grit" that functions as both a food attractant and a carrier in an Agrotis spp. bait composition or matrix.
[0267] A surfactant may be of an emulsifying surfactant or wetting surfactant, an ionic surfactant or a non-ionic surfactant. Said surfactant may be a dispersant, antifoaming agent, penetrating agent, wetting agent, stabilizing agent, sequestering agent and / or antiflocculating agent. Possible surfactants are salts of polyacrylic or lignosulfonic acids; salts of phenolsulfonic or naphthalenesulfonic acids; polycondensates of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols or fatty acids or fatty amines or substituted phenols (particularly alkylphenols or arylphenols); ester- salts of sulfosuccinic acids; taurine derivatives, such as alkyl taurates; phosphoric esters; or esters of alcohols or polyoxyethylated phenols. When the bait composition contains water, the use of at least one surfactant may be desirable.
[0268] Other additives may be selected from the list consisting of: an antifreezing agent, dyestuff, pigment, thickener, adhesive, protective colloids corrosion inhibitor, and a polymer. More generally, the bait formulation of the invention can contain all kinds of solid or liquid additive which are known in the art of insecticides and insecticidal treatments.
[0269] In some embodiments, the bait formulation according to the invention can be in the form of a liquid a paste or a gel or a solid such as a granule, pellet, or powder. A solid bait formulation can be a powder for dusting or for dispersion, a paste, a gel or granular, including extruded, agglomerated or compacted granules, or granules which have been made by impregnation of a powder or pulp material. A solid bait composition can also be a spreadable granular composition based on an appropriate insect food attractant as carrier such as a grain (or a ground corn cob).
[0270] A liquid bait formulation can be a composition which has to be liquid or dispersed in a liquid when applied to a treatment locus including a solution, water-soluble concentrate, emulsifiable concentrate, suspension, suspension concentrate, suspoemulsion, emulsion, wettable powder, paste, gel or dispersible granular composition.
[0271] In some embodiments, an insect bait in accordance with the invention can be associated with various insect bait stations that are known in the art. In a typical insect bait station, a target insect is encouraged to retrieve an appropriate bait composition that contains a compound according the first or second aspect of the present invention from a treatment locus.
[0272] In some embodiments, when the bait formulation according to the invention is prepared in the form of a gel, comprises a matrix-forming crosslinkable polymer from among a material selected from the group consisting of: carrageenan, alginate, gellan gum, xanthan gum and mixtures thereof.
