[0003] Herbicide compositions

[0004] Description

[0005] The invention lies in the technical field of plant protection products that can be used against unwanted plant growth in non-cultivated land, for seed preparation or in plant crops and contain as herbicide active ingredients a combination of at least two herbicides, wherein the compositions contain herbicidal active compounds (A) and (B), wherein (A) is one or more compounds of the general formula (I) or their agrochemically compatible salts [herbicides (A) or component (A)] and (B) is one or more herbicides (component B).

[0006] Compounds from the structural class of 3-phenylisoxazoline-5-carboxamides are known as herbicides (see, e.g., WO2012 / 130798 A, WO2018 / 228985 Al and WO2019 / 145245 Al). These compounds are effective against a broad spectrum of weeds in both pre-emergence and post-emergence applications, allowing for non-selective use to control unwanted plant growth or selective application in crops.

[0007] Compounds from the structural class of substituted cyclic diones are known as herbicides (see, e.g., WO2015 / 197468). These compounds are effective against a broad spectrum of weeds in both pre-emergence and post-emergence applications, allowing for non-selective use to control unwanted plant growth or selective application in crops.

[0008] The efficacy of these herbicides against weeds is high, but generally depends on the application rate, the specific formulation, the spectrum of weeds targeted, the specific weeds being controlled, climatic and soil conditions, etc. Another criterion is the duration of action or the rate of herbicide degradation. Changes in the sensitivity of weeds, which can occur with prolonged herbicide use or in geographically limited areas, must also be considered. Loss of efficacy against individual plants can only be partially compensated for by increasing the application rate of the herbicides, for example, because this often reduces the selectivity of the herbicides or because an improvement in efficacy does not occur even with higher application rates. In general, there is a need for methods to achieve the same herbicide efficacy with lower application rates of active ingredients.A lower application rate not only reduces the amount of active ingredient required for application, but also generally reduces the BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025.

[0009] 2

[0010] The amount of formulation aids required. Both reduce the economic costs and improve the environmental compatibility of herbicide treatment.

[0011] One way to improve the application profile of a herbicide is to combine the active ingredient with one or more other active ingredients that contribute the desired additional properties. However, when several active ingredients are used together, phenomena of physical and biological incompatibility often occur, such as insufficient stability in a co-formulation, degradation of one active ingredient, or antagonism between the active ingredients. Combinations of active ingredients with a favorable efficacy profile, high stability, and, ideally, an unexpectedly synergistically enhanced effect are desirable, as they allow for a reduction in the application rate compared to applying the active ingredients individually.

[0012] The object of the present invention is to provide alternative or advantageous herbicidal compositions which have a good biological application profile and, if possible, several of the above-mentioned desired favorable properties.

[0013] Surprisingly, it has now been found that this problem can be solved by using a composition containing herbicidally active compounds (A) and (B), wherein (A) represents one or more compounds of the general formula (I) or their agrochemically compatible salts [component (A)] and (B) represents one or more compounds of the general formula (II) or their agrochemically compatible salts [component (B)]. The compositions according to the invention interact particularly favorably, for example, when used to control unwanted weed growth in crops such as wheat (durum and common wheat), maize, soybeans, sugar beet, sugar cane, cotton, rice, beans (such as bush beans and broad beans), flax, barley, oats, rye, triticale, potatoes, and sorghum, as well as on non-cultivated land, pasture, grassland, and plantation crops.

[0014] The present invention relates to compositions containing herbicidally active compounds (A) and (B), wherein (A) represents one or more compounds of the general formula (I) or their agrochemically compatible salts [component (A)], BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0070] The names of the herbicides listed above (common name) are supplemented by the "CAS RN" (Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number) (abbreviated "CAS") shown in parentheses. The CAS RN is a widely used reference number that allows for the unambiguous identification of the substances named, as it distinguishes between isomers, including stereoisomers, as well as salts and esters. For active ingredients that exist in different forms, the name of the neutral compound is given in the list above. The CAS numbers given in parentheses refer to this compound as well as to all other known forms of the active ingredient. In the following, only the neutral compound is always mentioned, thus encompassing all existing forms as listed, unless a specific form of the active ingredient is relevant in a particular context, such as in the table examples below regarding biological efficacy.

[0071] The compositions according to the invention may contain further components, e.g., other active substances against harmful organisms such as weeds, pests, or fungi, in particular active substances from the group of herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, and miticides and related substances, or also other types of plant protection active substances (e.g., resistance inducers), plant growth regulators, and / or additives and / or formulation aids commonly used in plant protection. The components can be formulated and applied together (finished formulation) or they can be formulated separately and applied together, e.g., in a tank mix or in sequential application.

[0072] The individual herbicidal active ingredients of general formula (I) contained as component (A) are hereinafter also referred to as compounds (A), active ingredients (A), components (A), or herbicides (A). Accordingly, the individual herbicidal active ingredients contained as component (B) are BYC240177 EP NR / ed Ausland 31.10.2025

[0073] 13

[0074] of the general formula (II) hereinafter also referred to as compounds (B), active substances (B), components (B) or herbicides (B).

[0075] An advantageous feature of the inventive combination of herbicides (A) and (B) is that active ingredients (A) and (B) are compatible with each other; that is, they can be used together without significant chemical incompatibilities occurring between active ingredients (A) and / or (B) that would lead to the degradation of one or more of the active ingredients. This avoids a reduction in the active ingredient content in formulations or spray solutions. The favorable compatibility also extends to the biological properties of the active ingredients when used in combination. For example, antagonistic effects are generally not observed when controlling weeds with the inventive combinations of active ingredients. Therefore, active ingredients (A) and (B) are particularly suitable for use together or additionally with other plant protection active ingredients or agrochemicals.The combined application enables the utilization of beneficial effects, such as expanding the spectrum of weeds to be controlled or managed in a single application, and reducing the application rate of individual herbicides (A) or (B) compared to the respective application rate of the herbicide in a single application. This allows for influencing the degradation behavior of the active ingredients and creating more favorable conditions for subsequent crop cultivation. A further advantage is that the development of weed resistance to the active ingredients can often be significantly reduced or avoided by combining active ingredients with different modes of action. Surprisingly, the combined application of active ingredients (A) and (B) results in synergistic effects against a larger number of economically important weeds.The combined effect is stronger than the expected sum of the effects of the individual herbicides used. These synergistic effects allow for a further reduction in application rate, control of a broader spectrum of weeds and grasses, faster onset of herbicidal action, longer-lasting effect, better control of weeds with only one or a few applications, and an extension of the possible application period. In some cases, the use of these products also reduces the amount of harmful substances, such as nitrogen or oleic acid, and their input into the soil.

[0076] The aforementioned properties and advantages are desirable in practical weed control to keep agricultural crops free of unwanted competing plants, thereby securing and / or increasing yields in terms of both quality and quantity. The new combinations significantly exceed the current technical standard with regard to the described properties. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0077] 14

[0078] Synergistic effects are observed when active ingredients (A) and (B) are applied together, but can also frequently occur with staggered application (splitting). It is also possible to apply the herbicides (A) and / or (B), or the herbicidal combination (A) and (B), in several applications (sequential application). For example, a post-emergence application can follow one or more pre-emergence applications, or an application can follow an early post-emergence application in mid- or late post-emergence. Simultaneous or close application of the active ingredients of the respective combination is preferred, possibly in several applications. However, staggered application of the individual active ingredients of a combination is also possible and can be advantageous in certain cases.Other plant protection products, such as the aforementioned other active ingredients (other herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, etc.) and / or various auxiliary substances, adjuvants and / or fertilizer applications, can also be integrated into the application system.

[0079] The terms "pre-emergence" and "post-emergence" refer, depending on the context, to the application of the active ingredients before or after the above-ground appearance of the weeds, or to the application of the active ingredients against the weeds before or after the emergence of the cultivated plants. With regard to the compounds according to the invention, the terms used above and below are explained. These are familiar to those skilled in the art and have, in particular, the meanings explained below:

[0080] Unless otherwise defined, the general rule for the designation of chemical groups is that the connection to the framework or the rest of the molecule is made via the last mentioned structural element of the chemical group in question, i.e., for example, in the case of (C2-Cs)-alkenyloxy via the oxygen atom, and in the case of heterocyclyl-(Ci-C8)-alkyl or (Ci-C6)-alkoxy-(Ci-C6)-alkoxy-(Ci-Ce)-alkyl, respectively, via the C atom of the alkyl group.

[0136] The substituents listed below are suitable for a substituted heterocyclic residue, as are oxo and thioxo. An oxo group as a substituent on a ring carbon atom then represents, for example, a carbonyl group in the heterocyclic ring. This preferably also includes lactones and lactams. The oxo group can also occur on the heteroring atoms, which can exist in different oxidation states, e.g., N and S, and then form, for example, the divalent groups N(O), S(O) (also abbreviated SO), and S(O)₂ (also abbreviated SO₂) in the heterocyclic ring.

[0165] The compounds of formula (I) and (II) can exist as stereoisomers depending on the type and combination of the substituents. For example, if one or more asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms and / or sulfoxides are present, enantiomers and diastereomers can occur. Stereoisomers can be obtained from the mixtures obtained during preparation using conventional separation methods, such as chromatographic separation techniques. Stereoisomers can also be selectively prepared by using stereoselective reactions with optically active starting materials and / or auxiliary substances.

[0166] The invention also relates to all stereoisomers and their mixtures encompassed by formulas (I) and (II), but not specifically defined. For the sake of simplicity, however, the following text refers to compounds of formulas (I) and (II), although this includes both the pure compounds and, optionally, mixtures with varying proportions of isomeric compounds. Depending on the type of substituents defined above, the compounds of formulas (I) and (II) exhibit acidic properties and can form salts, optionally also internal salts or adducts, with inorganic or organic bases or with metal ions. If the compounds of formulas (I) or (II) bear hydroxy, carboxy, or other acid-inducing groups, these compounds can react with bases to form salts.Suitable bases include, for example, hydroxides, carbonates, and hydrogen carbonates of alkali and alkaline earth metals, especially sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium; ammonia; primary, secondary, and tertiary amines with (C1-C4)-alkyl groups; mono-, di-, and trialkanolamines of (Ci-C^-alkanols); choline and chlorocholine; and organic amines such as trialkylamines, morpholine, piperidine, or pyridine. These salts are compounds in which the acidic hydrogen is replaced by a cation suitable for agriculture, for example, metal salts, especially alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts, especially sodium and potassium salts; or ammonium salts, salts with organic amines, or quaternary ammonium salts, for example, with cations of the formula [NRR′R′′R′′′]. +, wherein R to R′′′ each independently represent an organic residue, in particular alkyl, aryl, aralkyl or alkylaryl. Alkylsulfonium and alkylsulfoxonium salts, such as (C1-C4)-trialkylsulfonium and (Ci-C4)-trialkylsulfoxonium salts, are also suitable. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0167] 29

[0168] The compounds of formula (I) and (II) can form salts by the addition of a suitable inorganic or organic acid, such as mineral acids like HCl, HBr, H₂SO₄, H₃PO₄, or HNO₃, or organic acids, e.g., carboxylic acids like formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, lactic acid, or salicylic acid, or sulfonic acids like p-toluenesulfonic acid, to a basic group such as amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, piperidino, morpholino, or pyridino. These salts then contain the conjugate base of the acid as the anion.

[0169] Suitable substituents that exist in deprotonated form, such as sulfonic acids or carboxylic acids, can form internal salts with their own protonatable groups, such as amino groups.

[0170] If a group is substituted multiple times by residues, this means that this group is substituted by one or more identical or different residues of the mentioned residues.

[0171] In all formulas mentioned below, the substituents and symbols, unless otherwise defined, have the same meaning as described under the general formulas (I) and (II) of herbicides (A) and (B).

[0226] The designation rel-(2R,4R) corresponds to the IUPAC nomenclature and means that both cis configurations of the substituents are present in the 2- and 4-positions.

[0227] In Tables 1a and 1b, the compounds are designated by the chemical formula of the main component, wherein this component is present in a chemical purity of preferably at least 95% by weight of the compound. Naturally, the compounds can also be used with lower purities. In particular, efficacy is achieved when minor components of the compounds consist predominantly or entirely of stereoisomers of the respective compounds (A). Therefore, mixtures of two or more compounds (A) according to the invention are also preferred as herbicides (A).

[0228] If the stereochemical orientation at a carbon atom is defined in Tables 1a and 1b, then the main component of the compound is a stereoisomer or mixture of stereoisomers exhibiting the R or S configuration at the designated carbon atom. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0229] 33

[0230] If no stereochemistry is defined, the compound is a racemate. If multiple stereocenters are present and their respective configurations are designated with R or S, the compounds exhibit the specified stereochemistry at the designated centers.

[0231] If no R or S configuration is specified for multiple centers, the mixture is racemic, meaning that the mirror-image stereoisomers (enantiomers of an enantiomeric pair) are present in equal proportions. Unless otherwise specified, in Tables 1a and 1b, the diastereomeric components of racemic compounds (A) with multiple stereocenters are present in approximately equal proportions. However, in practical applications, racemic compounds with multiple stereocenters often contain mixtures of diastereomers with varying proportions of the diastereomeric components.

[0232] The listed connections are also preferred.

[0233] in a stereochemical purity of 60 to 100%, preferably 70-100%, particularly 80 to 100%.

[0234] The listed mixtures of stereoisomeric compounds (A) are also preferred.

[0235] The compounds of formula (I) are known from application WO2018 / 228985 Al and can be prepared according to the methods described therein.

[0236] The application rates of the herbicides (A) are in the range of 0.01 to 2000 g of active substance per hectare (hereinafter g ai / ha), preferably 0.02 to 1000 g ai / ha, and in particular 0.5 to 750 g ai / ha. In the combinations according to the invention, lower application rates of the respective active ingredient are usually required within the aforementioned application rates compared to individual application, preferably 0.01 to 1000 g ai / ha, in particular 0.02 to 500 g ai / ha, and most preferably 5 to 250 g ai / ha.

[0237] However, some herbicides (B) have surprisingly proven to be particularly good combination partners. The preferred and especially preferred herbicides (B) according to the general formula (II) as shown above are listed below as further embodiments of the present invention.

[0238] In a fourth embodiment of the present invention, the herbicidal composition preferably comprises component (B) of the general formula (II) as specified in Table 2 below. R 3 and R 6 for hydrogen, R 4 and R 5 form a group -CH2-CH2- and form with the BYC240177 EP NR / ed foreign 31.10.2025

[0257] Compounds from the structural class of substituted cyclic diones are known as herbicides (see e.g. WO2015 / 197468) and can be produced according to the methods shown therein.

[0258] Within the scope of the present invention, it is possible to combine the individual preferred and particularly preferred components in any way desired. That is to say, herbicidal compositions comprising herbicidally active compounds (A) and (B) or their agrochemically compatible salts [component (A)] and (B) one or more herbicides [component (B)] are included in the present invention, in which any disclosed, preferred, and particularly preferred embodiments as listed above can be combined.

[0259] Some binary combinations containing herbicidally active compounds (A) and (B) or their agrochemically compatible salts have surprisingly proven to be particularly advantageous at the time of application.

[0289] Furthermore, the combinations according to the invention can be used together with other active ingredients such as the aforementioned active ingredients (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, etc.) and / or plant growth regulators or auxiliary substances from the group of additives commonly used in plant protection, such as adjuvants and formulation aids. The combination of plant protection active ingredients, which contains active ingredients (A) and (B) and optionally other active ingredients, is referred to hereinafter as a "herbicide combination". Their application forms, such as formulations or tank mixes, constitute herbicidal products (compositions).

[0290] The invention therefore also relates to herbicidal agents which contain the inventive combinations of active ingredients with additives commonly used in plant protection, such as adjuvants and formulation aids, and optionally further active ingredients of plant protection products. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0292] The invention also relates to the use of the or the application method using the active ingredient combinations according to the invention as herbicides and plant growth regulators, preferably as herbicides and plant growth regulators with a synergistically effective content of the respective active ingredient combination.

[0293] The application rates of the herbicides (A) and (B) are known in principle and are generally in the range of 0.01 to 4000 g ai / ha, preferably in the range of 0.02 to 2000 g ai / ha, particularly preferably in the range of 0.5 to 1500 g ai / ha and most preferably in the range of 0.5 to 800 g ai / ha.

[0294] The ratios (A):(B) based on weight are generally in the range of 1:100000 to 2000:1, preferably 1:40000 to 750:1, particularly in the range of 1:15000 to 500:1, even more preferably in the range of 1:300 to 400:1 and most preferably in the range of 1:30 to 30:1, depending on the effective application quantities.

[0295] The herbicidal compositions according to the invention can also be combined with other herbicides and plant growth regulators, for example, to expand their spectrum of activity. For example, known active ingredients based on the inhibition of, for example, acetolactate synthase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, cellulose synthase, enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase, glutamine synthetase, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, phytoendesaturase, photosystem I, photosystem II, and protoporphyrinogen oxidase can be used as combination partners for the compounds according to the invention in mixture formulations or in tank mixes. These include, for example, those described in Weed Research 26 (1986) 441-445 or "The Pesticide Manual", 14th edition, The British Crop Protection Council and the Royal Society. of Chemistry, 2006, the corresponding "e-Pesticide Manual Version 4 (2006)" and the literature cited therein are known.Further trade names and "common names" are listed in the "Compendium of Pesticide Common Names" (available online at http: / / www.alanwood.net / pesticides).

[0310] If the respective name (common name) includes several forms of the active ingredient, the commercially available form is preferably defined by the name.

[0311] Each of the aforementioned additional active ingredients (= active ingredients (C*), (Cl*), (C2*) etc.) can then preferably be combined with one of the two combinations according to the present invention, according to the scheme (A)+(B)+(C*) or also according to the scheme (A)+(B)+(C1*)+(C2*) etc.

[0312] The quantities specified are application rates (g ai / ha = grams of active substance per hectare) and thus also define the ratios in a co-formulation, a pre-mix, a tank-mix, or a sequential application of the combined active ingredients. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0313] 43

[0314] These combinations can be applied in both pre-emergence and post-emergence applications. This applies to both pre- and post-emergence control of the weeds and to the selective control of weeds before or after the emergence of the crop. Mixed approaches are also possible, for example, controlling weeds in their pre- or post-emergence stage when treating crops after emergence.

[0315] The herbicide combinations according to the invention may contain further components, e.g. other active substances against harmful organisms such as harmful plants, plant-damaging animals or plant-damaging fungi, in particular active substances from the group of herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, miticides and related substances.

[0316] The patented active ingredient combinations are suitable for controlling a broad spectrum of weeds in non-agricultural areas, on roads, railway tracks, industrial sites ("industrial weed control"), or in plantation crops in temperate, subtropical, and tropical climates or geographies. Examples of plantation crops include oil palm, nuts (e.g., almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, macadamia nuts), coconut, berries, rubber trees, citrus (e.g., oranges, lemons, tangerines), bananas, pineapples, cotton, sugarcane, tea, coffee, cocoa, and similar crops. They are also suitable for use in fruit growing (e.g., pome fruits such as apples, pears, cherries, mangoes, kiwis) and viticulture. The products can also be used for seedbed preparation ("bum-down," "no-till," or "zero-till" methods) or for post-harvest treatment ("chemical fallow"). The application possibilities of the active ingredient combinations also extend to weed control in tree crops, e.g.young Christmas tree plantations or eucalyptus plantations, either before planting or after transplanting (also with over-top treatment).

[0317] The products can also be used to control unwanted plant growth in economically important crops such as wheat (durum and common wheat), maize, soybeans, sugar beet, sugar cane, cotton, rice, beans (such as bush beans and broad beans), flax, barley, oats, rye, triticale, potatoes and millet (sorghum), pastureland and grass / lawn areas and plantation crops. Plantation crops include, among others, pomefruits (apple, pear, quince), Ribes-type fruits (blackberry, raspberry), citrus fruits, Prunus-type fruits (cherries, nectarines, almonds), nuts (walnut, pecan, hazelnut, cashew, macadamia), mango, cocoa, coffee, wine (table grapes, wine grapes), palm trees (such as oil palm, date palm, coconut palm), eucalyptus, persimmon, rubber, pineapple, banana, avocado, lychee, and forest crops (Eucalypteae, Piniaceae, Piceae, Meliaceae, etc.). Pastureland, grassland, and lawns primarily consist of warm-season turf grasses—e.g.,from Cynedon dactylon, Centipede, Bahia orZoysia, St. Augustine species - and others, BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025.

[0318] 44

[0319] also with the additional use of safeners such as cyprosulfamide or isoxadifen ethyl to increase plant tolerance.

[0320] The herbicidal active ingredient combinations according to the invention, in their respective application forms (= herbicidal agents), exhibit synergies with regard to herbicide activity and selectivity, and have a favorable effect on the weed spectrum. They demonstrate excellent herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of economically important monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous annual weeds. Even difficult-to-control perennial weeds that sprout from rhizomes, rootstocks, or other persistent organs are effectively controlled by the active ingredients.

[0321] The active ingredient combinations can be applied to the plants (e.g., pest plants such as mono- or dicotyledonous weeds or unwanted cultivated plants), the seed (e.g., grains, seeds or vegetative propagation organs such as tubers or shoot parts with buds) or the area on which the plants grow (e.g., the cultivated area).

[0322] The substances can be applied via pre-sowing (possibly also by incorporation into the soil), pre-emergence, or post-emergence methods. Application is preferred in early reseeding / pre-emergence or post-emergence applications of plantation crops against weeds that have not yet emerged or have already emerged. The application can also be integrated into weed management systems with sequential applications.

[0323] Specifically, some representatives of the mono- and dicotyledonous weed flora that can be controlled by the active ingredient combinations according to the invention are mentioned as examples, without the mention of which is intended to restrict them to specific species.

[0324] On the monocotyledonous weed side, for example, Aegilops, Agropyron, Agrostis, Alopecurus, Apera, Avena, Brachicaria, Bromus, Cynodon, Dactyloctenium, Digitaria, Echinochloa, Eleocharis, Eleusine, Eragrostis, Eriochloa, Festuca, Fimbristylis, Imperata, Ischaemum, Heteranthera, Leptochloa, Lolium, Monochoria, Panicum, Paspalum, Phalaris, Phleum, Poa, Rottboellia, Sagittaria, Scirpus, Setaria, Sorghum, Sphenoclea, and Cyperus species are covered by the annual group. For dicotyledonous weeds, the spectrum of activity extends to species such as...Abutilon, Amaranthus, Ambrosia, Anoda, Anthemis, Aphanes, Artemisia, Atriplex, Bellis, Bidens, Capsella, Carduus, Cassia, Centaurea, Chenopodium, Cirsium, Convolvulus, Datura, Desmodium, Emex, Erodium, Erysimum, Euphorbia, Galeopsis, Galinsoga, Galium, Geranium, Hibiscus, Ipomoea, Kochia, Lamium, Lepidium, Lindemia, Matricaria, Mentha, Mercurialis, Mullugo, Myosotis, Papaver, Pharbitis, Plantago, Polygonum, Portulaca, Ranunculus, Raphanus, Rorippa, Rotala, Rumex, Salsola, Senecio, Sesbania, Sida, BYC240177 EP NR / ed Ausland 31.10.2025.

[0325] 45

[0326] Mustard, Solanum, Sonchus, Sphenoclea, Stellaria, Taraxacum, Thlaspi, Clover, Nettle, Veronica, Viola, Xanthium.

[0327] If the active ingredient combinations according to the invention are applied to the soil surface before germination, either the emergence of the weed seedlings is completely prevented or the weeds grow up to the cotyledon stage, but then stop growing and finally die completely after three to four weeks.

[0328] When the active ingredients are applied to the green parts of the plants in the post-emergence method, growth stops after treatment and the weeds remain at the growth stage they were at at the time of application or die off completely after a certain period of time, so that in this way weed competition that is harmful to the crops is eliminated very early and sustainably.

[0329] The herbicidal agents according to the invention are characterized by a rapid onset and long-lasting herbicidal effect. The rainfastness of the active ingredients in the combinations according to the invention is generally favorable. A particular advantage is that the effective dosages of compounds (A) and (B) used in the combinations can be set so low that their soil activity is optimally minimized. This not only makes their use possible in sensitive crops, but also practically prevents groundwater contamination. The combination of active ingredients according to the invention enables a significant reduction in the required application rate of the active ingredients.

[0330] The combined use of herbicides (A) and (B) achieves application-related properties that exceed what could be expected based on the known properties of the individual herbicides for their combination. For example, the herbicidal effects on a specific weed species surpass the expected value as estimated using standard methods, e.g., according to Colby or other extrapolation methods.

[0331] A synergistic effect occurs whenever the effect, in this case the herbicidal effect, of the combination of active ingredients is greater than the sum of the effects of the individually applied active ingredients. The expected effect for a given combination of two active ingredients can be calculated according to S.R. Colby (“Calculating Synergistic and Antagonistic Responses of Herbicide Combination”, Weeds 15 (1967), 20-22) (see below).

[0332] The synergistic effects therefore allow, for example, a reduction in the application rates of the individual active ingredients, a higher efficacy with the same application rate, control not yet BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0333] 46

[0334] Coverage of different types of weeds (gaps), increased residual effect, increased long-term effect, increased speed of action, an extension of the application period and / or a reduction in the number of necessary individual applications and - as a result for the user - more economically and ecologically advantageous weed control systems.

[0335] Although the combinations according to the invention exhibit excellent herbicidal activity against monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds, many economically important crops are only minimally affected or not affected at all, depending on the structure of the respective active ingredient combinations according to the invention and their application rate. Examples of economically important crops include dicotyledonous crops of the genera Arachis, Beta, Brassica, Cucumis, Cucurbita, Helianthus, Daucus, Glycine, Gossypium, Ipomoea, Lactuca, Linum, Lycopersicon, Nicotiana, Phaseolus, Pisum, Solanum, and Vicia, or monocotyledonous crops of the genera Allium, Ananas, Asparagus, Avena, Hordeum, Oryza, Panicum, Saccharum, Secale, Sorghum, Triticale, Triticum, and Zea.

[0336] Furthermore, the agents according to the invention exhibit, in some cases, excellent growth-regulating properties in cultivated plants. They exert a regulatory influence on the plant's own metabolism and can thus be used to selectively influence plant constituents and to facilitate harvesting, for example, by triggering desiccation and growth stunting. They are also suitable for the general control and inhibition of undesirable vegetative growth without killing the plants. Inhibition of vegetative growth plays a significant role in many monocot and dicotyledonous crops, as it can reduce or completely prevent storage.

[0337] Due to their herbicidal and plant growth-regulating properties, these agents can be used to control weeds in known plant crops or in tolerant crops yet to be developed, modified by conventional mutagenesis or genetic engineering. The transgenic plants are generally characterized by particularly advantageous properties, such as resistance to the agents according to the invention, for example, resistance to plant diseases or pathogens of plant diseases, such as certain insects or microorganisms like fungi, bacteria, or viruses. Other special properties relate, for example, to the harvested product with regard to quantity, quality, storability, composition, and specific constituents. For instance, transgenic plants with increased starch content or altered starch quality, or those with a different fatty acid composition of the harvested product, are known.Other special properties may include tolerance or resistance to abiotic stressors such as heat, cold, dryness, salt and ultraviolet radiation.

[0338] Preferably, the active ingredient combinations according to the invention can be used as herbicides in BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0339] 47

[0340] Crops are used that are resistant to the phytotoxic effects of one or more of the aforementioned herbicides, or have been genetically engineered to be resistant. Sufficient tolerance can also be achieved by the additional addition of safeners. Conventional methods for producing new plants with modified properties compared to existing plants include, for example, classical breeding methods and the creation of mutants. Alternatively, new plants with altered properties can be produced using genetic engineering techniques (see, for example, EP-A-0221044, EP-A-0131624). Several cases have been described, for example.

[0341] Genetic engineering of cultivated plants for the purpose of modifying the starch synthesized in the plants (e.g. WO 92 / 11376, WO 92 / 14827,

[0342] WO 91 / 19806),

[0343] transgenic crops that exhibit resistance to other herbicides, for example to sulfonylureas (EP-A-0257993, US-A-5013659),

[0345] to produce Bacillus thuringiensis toxins (Bt toxins), which the

[0347] EP-A-0193259).

[0348] transgenic crops with modified fatty acid composition

[0349] (WO 91 / 13972).

[0350] Genetically modified crops with new ingredients or secondary metabolites, e.g., new phytoalexins that cause increased disease resistance (EPA 309862, EPA0464461); genetically modified plants with reduced photorespiration that have higher yields and higher stress tolerance (EPA 0305398).

[0351] Transgenic crops that produce pharmaceutically or diagnostically important proteins ("molecular pharming")

[0352] Transgenic crops that are characterized by higher yields or better quality; transgenic crops that are characterized by a combination of, for example, the aforementioned new traits ("gene stacking")

[0353] Numerous molecular biological techniques for producing new transgenic plants with altered properties are known in principle; see, for example, B.I. Potrykus and G. Spangenberg (eds.) Gene Transfer to Plants, Springer Lab Manual (1995), Springer Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg, or Christen, "Trends in Plant Science" 1 (1996) 423-431). BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0354] 48

[0355] For such genetic engineering manipulations, nucleic acid molecules can be introduced into plasmids, allowing mutagenesis or sequence modification through recombination of DNA sequences. Using standard procedures, for example, base exchanges can be performed, partial sequences removed, or natural or synthetic sequences added. Adaptors or linkers can be attached to the DNA fragments to join them together; see, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2nd ed. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY; or Winnacker, "Genes and Clones", VCH Weinheim, 2nd ed., 1996.The production of plant cells with reduced activity of a gene product can be achieved, for example, by the expression of at least one corresponding antisense RNA, a sense RNA to achieve a cosuppression effect, or the expression of at least one appropriately designed ribozyme that specifically cleaves transcripts of the aforementioned gene product.

[0356] This can be achieved using either DNA molecules that comprise the entire coding sequence of a gene product, including any flanking sequences, or DNA molecules that comprise only parts of the coding sequence, provided these parts are long enough to produce an antisense effect in the cells. It is also possible to use DNA sequences that exhibit a high degree of homology to the coding sequences of a gene product, but are not completely identical.

[0357] When nucleic acid molecules are expressed in plants, the synthesized protein can be localized in any compartment of the plant cell. However, to achieve localization in a specific compartment, the coding region can be linked to DNA sequences that ensure localization in that compartment. Such sequences are known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, Braun et al., EMBO J. 11 (1992), 3219-3227; Wolter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85 (1988), 846-850; Sonnewald et al., Plant J. 1 (1991), 95-106). The expression of nucleic acid molecules can also take place in the organelles of plant cells. The transgenic plant cells can be regenerated into whole plants using known techniques. In principle, the transgenic plants can be plants of any plant species, i.e., both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants.Thus, transgenic plants are available that exhibit altered properties through overexpression, suppression, or inhibition of homologous (= natural) genes or gene sequences, or expression of heterologous (= foreign) genes or gene sequences. Preferably, the active ingredient combinations according to the invention can be used in transgenic cultures that are tolerant to, or have been made tolerant to, the active ingredients used. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025.

[0358] 49

[0359] Preferably, the active ingredient combinations according to the invention can also be used in transgenic cultures that are resistant to growth regulators, such as dicamba, or to herbicides that inhibit essential plant enzymes, such as acetolactate synthases (ALS), EPSP synthases, glutamine synthases (GS) or hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenases (HPPD), or to herbicides from the group of sulfonylureas, glyphosates, glufosinates or benzoylisoxazoles and analogous active ingredients.

[0360] The invention therefore also relates to a method for controlling unwanted plant growth, optionally in crop crops, preferably in non-cultivated land or in plantation crops, characterized in that one or more herbicides of type (A) are applied with one or more herbicides of type (B) to the harmful plants, plant parts or plant seeds (seed) thereof or the cultivation area.

[0361] The invention also relates to the use of the new combinations of compounds (A)+(B) for the control of pests, optionally in crop crops, preferably in non-crop land and plantation crops, but also for the control of pests before sowing the following crop, in particular for seed preparation ("bum-down application").

[0362] The active ingredient combinations according to the invention can be in the form of mixtures of the two components, optionally with further active ingredients, additives and / or conventional formulation aids, which are then applied in the usual way after being diluted with water, or as so-called tank mixtures produced by jointly diluting the separately formulated or partially separately formulated components with water.

[0363] Compounds (A) and (B), or combinations thereof, can be formulated in various ways, depending on the biological and / or physicochemical parameters. General formulation options include, for example: sprayable powders (WP), water-soluble powders (SP), emulsifiable concentrates (EC), water-soluble concentrates, aqueous solutions (SL), emulsions (EW) such as oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, sprayable solutions or emulsions, oil- or water-based dispersions, oil dispersions (ÖD), suspoemulsions, suspension concentrates (SC), oil-miscible solutions, capsule suspensions (CS), dusting agents (DP), pickling agents, granules for soil or broadcast application, granules (GR) in the form of micro-, sprayable, lift-up, and adsorption granules, water-dispersible granules (WG), water-soluble granules (SG), ULV formulations, microcapsules, or waxes.

[0364] The invention therefore also relates to herbicides and plant growth regulators containing the active ingredient combinations according to the invention. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Foreign 31.10.2025

[0366] The individual formulation types are basically known and are described, for example, in: Winnacker-Küchler, "Chemical Technology", Volume 7, C. Hanser Verlag Munich, 4th ed. 1986; van Valkenburg, "Pesticides Formulations", Marcel Dekker NY, 1973; K. Martens, "Spray Drying Handbook", 3rd ed. 1979, G. Goodwin Ltd. London.

[0367] The necessary formulation aids, such as inert materials, surfactants, solvents, and other additives, are also known and are described, for example, in: Watkins, "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd Ed., Darland Books, Caldwell NJ; Hv Olphen, "Introduction to Clay Colloid Chemistry", 2nd Ed., J. Wiley & Sons, NY; Marsden, "Solvents Guide", 2nd Ed., Interscience, NY 1963; McCutcheon's, "Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publ. Corp., Ridegewood NJ; Sisley and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Egents", Chem. Publ. Co. Inc., NY

[0368] 1964; Schönfeldt, "Interfacially Active Ethylene Oxide Adducts", Scientific Publishing Company, Stuttgart 1976, Winnacker-Küchler, "Chemical Technology", Volume 7, C. Hanser Publishing House Munich, 4th edition 1986. Based on these formulations, combinations with other pesticidal substances, such as other herbicides, fungicides, insecticides or other pest control agents (e.g. acaricides, nematicides, molluscicides, rodenticides, aphicides, avicides, larvicides, ovicides, bactericides, virucides, etc.), as well as safeners, fertilizers and / or growth regulators can also be produced, e.g. in the form of a ready-made formulation or as a tank mix.

[0369] Spray powders are preparations that are uniformly dispersible in water and, in addition to the active ingredient, contain a diluent or inert substance as well as ionic and / or non-ionic surfactants (wetting agents, dispersants), e.g., polyoxyethylated alkylphenols, polyoxyethylated fatty alcohols, polyoxyethylated fatty amines, fatty alcohol polyglycol ether sulfates, alkanesulfonates, alkylbenzenesulfonates, sodium ligninsulfonic acid, 2,2'-dinaphthylmethane-6,6'-disulfonic acid sodium, sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid, or sodium oleoylmethyltauric acid. To produce the spray powders, the herbicidal active ingredients are finely ground in conventional equipment such as hammer mills, blower mills, and air jet mills and mixed simultaneously or subsequently with the formulation aids.

[0370] Emulsifiable concentrates are produced by dissolving the active ingredient in an organic solvent, e.g., butanol, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, xylene, or even higher-boiling aromatics or hydrocarbons, or mixtures of organic solvents, with the addition of one or more ionic and / or non-ionic surfactants (emulsifiers). Examples of emulsifiers that can be used include: alkylarylsulfonic acid calcium salts such as calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, or non-ionic emulsifiers such as fatty acid polyglycol esters, alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers, propylene oxide-ethylene oxide-BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0371] 51

[0372] Condensation products, alkyl polyethers, sorbitan esters such as sorbitan fatty acid esters or polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters.

[0373] Dusting agents are obtained by grinding the active ingredient with finely divided solid substances, e.g. talc, natural clays such as kaolin, bentonite and pyrophyllite, or diatomaceous earth.

[0374] Suspension concentrates can be water- or oil-based. They can be produced, for example, by wet milling using commercially available bead mills and, if necessary, the addition of surfactants, such as those already listed above for the other formulation types.

[0375] Emulsions, e.g. oil-in-water emulsions (EW), can be produced, for example, using stirrers, colloid mills and / or static mixers, with aqueous organic solvents and, if necessary, surfactants, such as those already listed above for the other formulation types.

[0376] Granules can be produced either by atomizing the active ingredient onto adsorbable, granulated inert material or by applying active ingredient concentrates to the surface of carrier materials such as sand, kaolinite, or granulated inert material using adhesives, e.g., polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate, or mineral oils. Alternatively, suitable active ingredients can be granulated in the manner customary for the production of fertilizer granules – optionally in mixture with fertilizers.

[0377] Water-dispersible granules are typically produced using processes such as spray drying, fluidized bed granulation, disc granulation, high-speed mixing, and extrusion without solid inert material.

[0378] The agrochemical preparations generally contain 0.1 to 99% by weight, in particular 0.2 to 95% by weight, active ingredients of types (A) and / or (B), with the following concentrations being typical depending on the formulation:

[0379] In sprayable powders, the active ingredient concentration is, for example, approximately 10 to 95 wt%, with the remainder to 100 wt% consisting of usual formulation components. In emulsifiable concentrates, the active ingredient concentration can be approximately 1 to 90 wt%, preferably 5 to 80 wt%.

[0380] Powder formulations usually contain 5 to 20 wt% of active ingredient, sprayable solutions contain approximately 0.05 to 80, preferably 2 to 50 wt% of active ingredient.

[0381] For granules such as dispersible granules, the active ingredient content depends in part on whether the active compound is in liquid or solid form and which granulating agents and fillers are used. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0382] 52

[0383] The content of water-dispersible granules is typically between 1 and 95 wt.%, preferably between 10 and 80 wt.%.

[0384] In addition, the aforementioned active ingredient formulations may contain the usual adhesives, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, penetration agents, preservatives, antifreeze agents and solvents, fillers, colorants and carriers, defoamers, evaporation inhibitors and agents that affect the pH value or viscosity.

[0385] For application, commercially available formulations are diluted in the usual manner, e.g., spray powders, emulsifiable concentrates, dispersions, and water-dispersible granules are diluted with water. Powdery preparations, soil or granular coatings, and sprayable solutions are not usually diluted with further inert substances before application.

[0386] The active ingredients can be applied to the plants, plant parts, plant seeds or the cultivated area (arable land), preferably to the green plants and plant parts and, if necessary, additionally to the arable land.

[0387] One application method is the combined application of the active ingredients in the form of tank mixtures, whereby the optimally formulated concentrated formulations of the individual active ingredients are mixed together with water in the tank and the resulting spray solution is applied.

[0388] A common herbicidal formulation of the combination of active ingredients (A) and (B) according to the invention has the advantage of easier application because the amounts of the components are already adjusted to the correct ratio to one another. Furthermore, the excipients in the formulation can be optimally matched to each other, whereas a tank mix of different formulations can result in undesirable combinations of excipients.

[0389] A. General examples of wording

[0390] a) A dusting agent is obtained by mixing 10 parts by weight of an active ingredient (A) or (B) or a mixture of active ingredients (A) + (B) (and optionally further active ingredient components) and / or their salts and 90 parts by weight of talc as an inert material, and grinding in a hammer mill.

[0410] B. Biological examples BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025

[0411] 54

[0412] When using the combinations according to the invention, herbicidal effects are frequently observed on a pest species that exceed the formal sum of the effects of the individual herbicides when applied alone. Alternatively, in some cases, it can be observed that a lower application rate of the herbicide combination is required to achieve the same effect on a pest species compared to the individual products. Such increases in efficacy or effectiveness, or savings in application rate, are strong evidence of a synergistic effect.

[0413] If the observed effect values ​​already exceed the formal sum of the values ​​for the trials with individual applications, then they also exceed the expected value according to Colby, which is calculated using the following formula and is also considered an indication of synergism (cf. S.R. Colby; in Weeds 15 (1967) pp. 20 to 22):

[0414] E c = A+B - (A·B / 100)

[0415] This means:

[0416] A = Effect of the active ingredient (A) in % at an application rate of ag ai / ha;

[0417] B = Effect of the active ingredient (B) in % at an application rate of bg ai / ha;

[0418] E c = Expected value of the effect of the combination (A)+(B) in % at the combined application rate a+bg ai / ha.

[0419] The observed values ​​(E A ) of the experiments show that at suitable low doses the combinations have an effect that exceeds the expected values ​​according to Colby (□).

[0420] 1. Post-emergence weed control

[0421] Seeds or rhizome pieces of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds are placed in pots in sandy loam soil, covered with soil, and cultivated in a greenhouse under optimal growing conditions (temperature, humidity, water supply). After sowing, the experimental plants are treated with the inventive agents as soon as they reach the three-leaf stage. The inventive agents, formulated as spray powders or emulsion concentrates, are sprayed onto the green parts of the plants in various dosages with a water volume of approximately 300 to 8000 liters per hectare. After approximately 3 to 4 weeks of the experimental plants remaining in the greenhouse under optimal growing conditions, the effect of the preparations is visually assessed in comparison to untreated controls. The inventive agents also exhibit good post-emergence herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of economically important grasses and weeds. BYC240177 EP NR / ed Abroad 31.10.2025.

[0422] 55

[0423] The effects of the combinations according to the invention are frequently observed to exceed the formal sum of effects achieved with individual applications of the herbicides. The observed values ​​from the trials show that, at suitable low dosages, the effects of the combinations surpass the expected values ​​according to Colby.

[0424] 2. Herbicide efficacy in pre- and post-emergence applications (field trials)

[0425] Following the greenhouse trials described in Section 1, the trials were conducted on plots in the open field. The evaluation was carried out analogously to the trial in Section 1.

[0426] 3. Herbicide efficacy and crop compatibility (field trials)

[0427] Cultivated plants were grown outdoors on plots under natural field conditions, whereby seeds or rhizome pieces of typical weeds had been sown or natural weed growth was utilized. Treatment with the agents according to the invention was carried out after the emergence of the weeds and the cultivated plants, generally at the 2- to 4-leaf stage; in some cases (as indicated), the application of individual active ingredients or combinations of active ingredients was carried out pre-emergently or as a sequence treatment, partly pre-emergently and / or post-emergently.

[0428] In the case of plantation crops, usually only the soil between the individual crops was treated with the active ingredients.

[0429] After application, e.g., 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks post-application, the effect of the preparations was visually assessed in comparison to untreated controls. The products according to the invention also exhibit synergistic herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of economically important grasses and weeds in field trials. The comparison showed that the combinations according to the invention generally exhibited greater, and in some cases considerably greater, herbicidal efficacy than the sum of the effects of the individual herbicides, thus indicating synergism. Furthermore, the effects exceeded the expected values ​​according to Colby during significant portions of the assessment period, also indicating synergism. In contrast, the cultivated plants were not damaged, or only minimally damaged, as a result of the treatments with the herbicidal products.
