[0325] Suitable mixing partners for the compounds of the invention also include biopesticides.

[0326] Biopesticides have been defined as a form of pesticides based on micro-organisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses, nematodes, etc.) or natural products (compounds, e.g. metabolites, proteins, or extracts from biological or other natural sources) (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency: http: / / www.epa.gov / pesticides / biopesticides / ). Biopesticides fall into two major classes, microbial and biochemical pesticides:

[0327] (1) Microbial pesticides consist of bacteria, fungi or viruses (and often include the metabolites that bacteria and fungi produce). Entomopathogenic nematodes are also classified as microbial pesticides, even though they are multi-cellular.

[0328] (2) Biochemical pesticides are naturally occurring substances or or structurally-similar and functionally identical to a naturally-occurring substance and extracts from biological sources that control pests or provide other crop protection uses as defined below, but have non-toxic mode of actions (e.g. growth or developmental regulation, attractants, repellents or defence activators (e.g. induced resistance) and are relatively non-toxic to mammals.

[0345] According to the invention, the solid material (dry matter) of the biopesticides (with the ex-ception of oils e.g. Neem oil) are considered as active components (e.g. to be obtained after drying or evaporation of the extraction or suspension medium in case of liquid formulations of the microbial pesticides).

[0346] In accordance with the invention, the weight ratios and percentages used herein for a biological extract e.g. Quillay extract are based on the total weight of the dry content (solid material) of the respective extract(s).

[0347] The total weight ratios of compositions comprising at least one microbial pesticide in the form of viable microbial cells including dormant forms, can be determined using the amount of CFU of the respective microorganism to calculate the total weight of the respective active component with the following equation that 1x1010CFU equals one gram of total weight of the respective active component. Colony forming unit is measure of viable microbial cells, in particular fungal and bacterial cells. In addition, here “CFU” may also be understood as the number of (juvenile) individual nematodes in case of (entomopathogenic) nematode biopesticides, e.g. Steinernema feltiae.

[0348] When mixtures comprising microbial pesticides are employed in crop protection, the application rates range from 1x106to 5x1016(or more) CFU / ha, preferably from 1x108to 1x1013CFU / ha, and even more preferably from 1x109to 5x1015CFU / ha and in particular from 1x1012to 5x1014CFU / ha. In the case of nematodes as microbial pesticides (e.g. Steinernema feltiae), the application rates regularly range from 1x105to 1x1012(or more), preferably from 1x108to 1x1011, more preferably from 5x108to 1x1010individuals (e.g. in the form of eggs, juvenile or any other live stages, preferably in an infetive juvenile stage) per ha.

[0349] When mixtures comprising microbial pesticides are employed in seed treatment, the application rates generally range from 1x106to 1x1012(or more) CFU / seed, preferably from 1x106to 1x109CFU / seed. Furthermore, the application rates with respect to seed treatment generally range from 1x107to 1x1014(or more) CFU per 100 kg of seed, preferably from 1x109to 1x1012CFU per 100 kg of seed.250083

[0400] The compositions types i) to xi) may optionally comprise further auxiliaries, e.g. 0.1-1 wt% bactericides, 5-15 wt% anti-freezing agents, 0.1-1 wt% anti-foaming agents, and 0.1-1 wt% colorants.

[0401] The agrochemical compositions generally comprise between 0.01 and 95%, preferably be-tween 0.1 and 90%, and most preferably between 0.5 and 75%, by weight of active substance. The active substances are employed in a purity of from 90% to 100%, preferably from 95% to 100% (according to NMR spectrum).

[0402] Various types of oils, wetters, adjuvants, fertilizer, or micronutrients, and other pesticides (e.g. herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, growth regulators, safeners) may be added to the active substances or the compositions comprising them as premix or, if appropriate not until immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents can be admixed with the compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1 : 100 to 100: 1 , preferably 1 : 10 to 10:1.

[0403] The user applies the composition according to the invention usually from a predosage device, a knapsack sprayer, a spray tank, a spray plane, or an irrigation system. Usually, the agro-chemical composition is made up with water, buffer, and / or further auxiliaries to the desired application concentration and the ready-to-use spray liquor or the agrochemical composition according to the invention is thus obtained. Usually, 20 to 2000 liters, preferably 50 to 400 liters, of the ready-to-use spray liquor are applied per hectare of agricultural useful area.

[0404] According to one embodiment, individual components of the composition of the invention e.g. parts of a kit or parts of a binary or ternary mixture may be mixed by the user himself in a spray tank and further auxiliaries may be added, if appropriate.

[0409] Application methods

[0410] The compounds of the invention are suitable for use in protecting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, e.g. seeds, or soil or water, in which the plants are growing, from attack or infestation by animal pests. Therefore, the invention also relates to a plant protection method, which comprises contacting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, e.g. seeds, or soil or water, in which the plants are growing, to be protected from attack or infestation by animal pests, with a pesticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0411] The compounds of the invention are also suitable for use in combating or controlling animal pests. Therefore, the invention also relates to a method of combating or controlling animal pests, which comprises contacting the animal pests, their habitat, breeding ground, or food supply, or the crops, plants, plant propagation materials, e.g. seeds, or soil, or the area, material or environment in which the animal pests are growing or may grow, with a pesticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0412] The compounds of the invention are effective through both contact and ingestion. Further-more, the compounds of the invention can be applied to any and all developmental stages, e.g. egg, larva, pupa, and adult.

[0413] The compounds of the invention can be applied as such or in form of compositions comprising them as defined above. Furthermore, the compounds of the invention can be applied together with a mixing partner or in form of compositions comprising said mixtures. The components of said mixture can be applied simultaneously, jointly or separately, or in succession, that is immediately one after another and thereby creating the mixture “in situ” on the desired location, e.g. the plant, the sequence, in the case of separate application, generally not having any effect on the result of the control measures.

[0414] The application can be carried out both before and after the infestation of the crops, plants, plant propagation materials, e.g. seeds, soil, or the area, material or environment by the pests.

[0415] Suitable application methods include i.a. soil treatment, seed treatment, in furrow application, and foliar application. Soil treatment methods include drenching the soil, drip irrigation (drip application onto the soil), dipping roots, tubers or bulbs, or soil injection. Seed treatment techniques include seed dressing, seed coating, seed dusting, seed soaking, and seed pelleting. In furrow applications typically include the steps of making a furrow in cultivated land, seeding the furrow with seeds, applying the pesticidally active compound to the furrow, and closing the furrow. Foliar application refers to the application of the pesticidally active compound to plant foliage, e.g. through spray equipment. For foliar applications, it can be advantageous to modify the behavior of the pests by use of pheromones in combination with the compounds of the invention. Suitable pheromones for specific crops and pests are known and publicly available from databases of pheromones and semiochemicals, e.g. http: / / www.pherobase.com.

[0416] As used herein, the term "contacting" includes both direct contact (applying the com-pounds / compositions directly on the animal pest or plant - typically to the foliage, stem or roots of the plant) and indirect contact (applying the compounds / compositions to the locus, i.e. habitat, breeding ground, plant, seed, soil, area, material, or environment in which a pest is growing or may grow, of the animal pest or plant).250083

[0417] 46

[0418] The term “animal pest” includes arthropods, gastropods, and nematodes. Preferred animal pests according to the invention are arthropods, preferably insects and arachnids, in particular insects. Insects, which are of particular relevance for crops, are typically referred to as crop insect pests. The term "crop" refers to both, growing and harvested crops.

[0419] The term “plant” includes cereals, e.g. durum and other wheat, rye, barley, triticale, oats, rice, or maize (fodder maize and sugar maize I sweet and field corn); beet, e.g. sugar beet, or fodder beet; fruits, e.g. pomes, stone fruits, or soft fruits, e.g. apples, pears, plums, peaches, nectarines, almonds, cherries, papayas, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries or gooseberries; leguminous plants, e.g. beans, lentils, peas, alfalfa, or soybeans; oil plants, e.g. rapeseed (oilseed rape), turnip rape, mustard, olives, sunflowers, coconut, cocoa beans, castor oil plants, oil palms, ground nuts, or soybeans; cucurbits, e.g. squashes, pumpkins, cucumber or melons; fiber plants, e.g. cotton, flax, hemp, or jute; citrus fruit, e.g. oranges, lemons, grapefruits or mandarins; vegetables, e.g. eggplant, spinach, lettuce (e.g. iceberg lettuce), chicory, cabbage, asparagus, cabbages, carrots, onions, garlic, leeks, tomatoes, potatoes, cucurbits or sweet peppers; lauraceous plants, e.g. avocados, cinnamon, or camphor; energy and raw material plants, e.g. corn, soybean, rapeseed, sugar cane or oil palm; tobacco; nuts, e.g. walnuts; pistachios; coffee; tea; bananas; vines; hop; sweet leaf (Stevia); natural rubber plants or ornamental and forestry plants, shrubs, broad-leaved trees or evergreens, eucalyptus; turf; lawn; grass. Preferred plants include potatoes sugar beets, tobacco, wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, corn, cotton, soybeans, rapeseed, legumes, sunflowers, coffee, or sugar cane; fruits; vines; ornamentals; or vegetables, e.g. cucumbers, tomatoes, beans or squashes.

[0420] The term "cultivated plants" is to be understood as including plants which have been modified by mutagenesis or genetic engineering in order to provide a new trait to a plant or to modify an already present trait.

[0421] Mutagenesis includes techniques of random mutagenesis using X-rays or mutagenic chemicals, but also techniques of targeted mutagenesis, in order to create mutations at a specific locus of a plant genome. Targeted mutagenesis techniques frequently use oligonucleotides or proteins like CRISPR / Cas, zinc-finger nucleases, TALENs or meganucleases to achieve the targeting effect. Genetic engineering usually uses recombinant DNA techniques to create modifications in a plant genome which under natural circumstances cannot readily be obtained by cross breeding, mutagenesis or natural recombination. Typically, one or more genes are integrated into the genome of a plant in order to add a trait or improve a trait. These integrated genes are also referred to as transgenes in the art, while plant comprising such transgenes are referred to as transgenic plants. The process of plant transformation usually produces several transformation events, which differ in the genomic locus in which a transgene has been integrated. Plants comprising a specific transgene on a specific genomic locus are usually described as comprising a specific “event”, which is referred to by a specific event name. Traits which have been introduced in plants or have been modified include in particular herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, increased yield and tolerance to abiotic conditions, like drought.

[0422] Herbicide tolerance has been created by using mutagenesis as well as using genetic engineering. Plants which have been rendered tolerant to ALS inhibitor herbicides by conventional methods of mutagenesis and breeding comprise plant varieties commercially available under the name Clearfield®.250083

[0423] 47

[0424] Herbicide tolerance has been created to glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D, dicamba, oxynil herbicides, like bromoxynil and ioxynil, sulfonylurea herbicides, ALS inhibitor herbicides and HPPD inhibitors, like isoxaflutole and mesotrione.

[0425] Transgenes which have been used to provide herbicide tolerance traits comprise: for tolerance to glyphosate: cp4 epsps, epsps grg23ace5, mepsps, 2mepsps, gat4601 , gat4621 and goxv247, for tolerance to glufosinate: pat and bar, for tolerance to 2,4-D: aad-1 and aad-12, for tolerance to dicamba: dmo, for tolerance to oxynil herbicies: bxn, for tolerance to sulfonylurea herbicides: zm-hra, csr1-2, gm-hra, S4-HrA, for tolerance to ALS inhibitor herbicides: csr1-2, for tolerance to HPPD inhibitor herbicides: hppdPF, W336 and avhppd-03.

[0430] Insect resistance has mainly been created by transferring bacterial genes for insecticidal pro-teins to plants. Transgenes which have most frequently been used are toxin genes of Bacillus spec, and synthetic variants thereof, like cry1A, cry 1 Ab, cry1 Ab-Ac, cry 1 Ac, cry1A.1O5, cry1F, cry1Fa2, cry2Ab2, cry2Ae, mcry3A, ecry3.1Ab, cry3Bb1 , cry34Ab1 , cry35Ab1 , cry9C, vip3A(a), vip3Aa20. However, also genes of plant origin have been transferred to other plants. In particular genes coding for protease inhibitors, like CpTI and pin 11. A further approach uses transgenes in order to produce double stranded RNA in plants to target and downregulate in-sect genes. An example for such a transgene is dvsnf7.

[0431] Transgenic corn events comprising genes for insecticidal proteins or double stranded RNA are e.g., but not excluding others, Bt10, Bt11 , Bt176, MON801 , MON802, MON809, MON810, MON863, MON87411 , MON88017, MON89034, 33121 , 4114, 5307, 59122, TC1507, TC6275, CBH-351 , MIR162, DBT418 and MZIR098.

[0434] 48

[0435] Increased yield has been created by increasing ear biomass using the transgene athb17, be-ing present in corn event MON87403, or by enhancing photosynthesis using the transgene bbx32, being present in the soybean event MON87712.

[0436] Cultivated plants comprising a modified oil content have been created by using the transgenes: gm-fad2-1, Pj.D6D, Nc.Fad3, fad2-1A and fatb1-A. Soybean events comprising at least one of these genes are: 260-05, MON87705 and MON87769.

[0437] Tolerance to abiotic conditions, in particular to tolerance to drought, has been created by using the transgene cspB, comprised by the corn event MON87460 and by using the transgene Hahb-4, comprised by soybean event IND-00410-5.

[0438] Traits are frequently combined by combining genes in a transformation event or by combining different events during the breeding process. Preferred combination of traits are herbicide tolerance to different groups of herbicides, insect tolerance to different kind of insects, in particular tolerance to lepidopteran and coleopteran insects, herbicide tolerance with one or several types of insect resistance, herbicide tolerance with increased yield as well as a combination of herbicide tolerance and tolerance to abiotic conditions.

[0439] Plants comprising singular or stacked traits as well as the genes and events providing these traits are known (http: / / www.isaaa.org / gmapprovaldatabase) and (http: / / cera-gmc.org / GMCropDatabase).

[0441] The use of compositions according to the invention on cultivated plants may result in effects which are specific to a cultivated plant comprising a certain gene or event. These effects may comprise enhanced yield, enhanced resistance or tolerance to insects, nematodes, fungal, bacterial,250083

[0442] 49

[0443] mycoplasma, viral or viroid pathogens as well as early vigor, early or delayed ripening, cold or heat tolerance as well as changed amino acid or fatty acid spectrum or content.

[0444] It has been found that the pesticidal activity of the compounds of the invention may be enhanced by the insecticidal trait of a modified plant. Furthermore, it has been found that the compounds of the invention are suitable for preventing insects to become resistant to the insecticidal trait or for combating pests, which already have become resistant to the insecticidal trait of a modified plant. Moreover, the compounds of the invention are suitable for combating pests, against which the insecticidal trait is not effective, so that a complementary insecticidal activity can advantageously be used.

[0445] The term "plant propagation material" refers to all the generative parts of the plant e.g. seeds and vegetative plant material e.g. cuttings and tubers (e.g. potatoes), which can be used for the multiplication of the plant. This includes seeds, roots, fruits, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, shoots, sprouts and other parts of plants. Seedlings and young plants, which are to be trans-planted after germination or after emergence from soil, may also be included. These plant propagation materials may be treated prophylactically with a plant protection compound either at or before planting or transplanting.

[0446] The term “seed” embraces seeds and plant propagules of all kinds including but not limited to true seeds, seed pieces, suckers, corms, bulbs, fruit, tubers, grains, cuttings, cut shoots and the like, and means in a preferred embodiment true seeds.

[0447] In general, "pesticidally effective amount" means the amount of active ingredient needed to achieve an observable effect on growth, including the effects of necrosis, death, retardation, prevention, and removal, destruction, or otherwise diminishing the occurrence and activity of the target organism. The pesticidally effective amount can vary for the various compounds / compositions used in the invention. A pesticidally effective amount of the compositions will also vary according to the prevailing conditions e.g. desired pesticidal effect and duration, weather, target species, locus, mode of application.

[0448] In the case of soil treatment, in furrow application or of application to the pests dwelling place or nest, the quantity of active ingredient ranges from 0.0001 to 500 g per 100 m2, preferably from 0.001 to 20 g per 100 m2.

[0449] For use in treating crop plants, e.g. by foliar application, the rate of application of the active ingredients of this invention may be in the range of 0.0001 g to 4000 g per hectare, e.g. from 1 g to 2 kg per hectare or from 1 g to 750 g per hectare, desirably from 1 g to 100 g per hectare, more desirably from 10 g to 50 g per hectare, e.g., 10 to 20 g per hectare, 20 to 30 g per hec-tare, 30 to 40 g per hectare, or 40 to 50 g per hectare.

[0450] The compounds of the invention are particularly suitable for use in the treatment of seeds in order to protect the seeds from insect pests, in particular from soil-living insect pests, and the resulting seedling’s roots and shoots against soil pests and foliar insects. The invention therefore also relates to a method for the protection of seeds from insects, in particular from soil insects, and of the seedling's roots and shoots from insects, in particular from soil and foliar insects, said method comprising treating the seeds before sowing and / or after pregermination with a compound of the invention. The protection of the seedling's roots and shoots is preferred. More preferred is the protection of seedling’s shoots from piercing and sucking insects, chewing insects and nematodes.The term “seed treatment” comprises e.g. seed dressing, seed coating, seed dusting, seed soaking, seed pelleting, and in-furrow application methods. Preferably, the seed treatment application of the active compound is carried out by spraying or by dusting the seeds before sowing of the plants and before emergence of the plants.

[0451] The invention also comprises seeds coated with or containing the active compound. The term "coated with and / or containing" generally signifies that the active ingredient is for the most part on the surface of the propagation product at the time of application, although a greater or lesser part of the ingredient may penetrate into the propagation product, depending on the method of application. When the said propagation product is (re)planted, it may absorb the active ingredient. Suitable seed is e.g. seed of cereals, root crops, oil crops, vegetables, spices, ornamentals, e.g. seed of durum and other wheat, barley, oats, rye, maize (fodder maize and sugar maize I sweet and field corn), soybeans, oil crops, crucifers, cotton, sunflowers, bananas, rice, oilseed rape, turnip rape, sugarbeet, fodder beet, eggplants, potatoes, grass, lawn, turf, fodder grass, tomatoes, leeks, pumpkin / squash, cabbage, iceberg lettuce, pepper, cucumbers, melons, Brassica species, melons, beans, peas, garlic, onions, carrots, tuberous plants e.g. potatoes, sugarcane, tobacco, grapes, petunias, geranium / pelargoniums, pansies and impatiens.

[0452] In addition, the active compound may also be used for the treatment of seeds from plants, which have been modified by mutagenisis or genetic engineering, and which e.g. tolerate the action of herbicides or fungicides or insecticides.

[0453] Conventional seed treatment formulations include e.g. flowable concentrates FS, solutions LS, suspoemulsions (SE), powders for dry treatment DS, water dispersible powders for slurry treatment WS, water-soluble powders SS and emulsion ES and EC and gel formulation GF. These formulations can be applied to the seed diluted or undiluted. Application to the seeds is carried out before sowing, either directly on the seeds or after having pregerminated the latter. Preferably, the formulations are applied such that germination is not included.

[0454] The active substance concentrations in ready-to-use formulations, which may be obtained after two-to-tenfold dilution, are preferably from 0.01 to 60% by weight, more preferably from 0.1 to 40% by weight.

[0455] In a preferred embodiment a FS formulation is used for seed treatment. Typically, a FS formulation may comprise 1-800 g / l of active ingredient, 1-200 g / l Surfactant, 0 to 200 g / l antifreezing agent, 0 to 400 g / l of binder, 0 to 200 g / l of a pigment and up to 1 liter of a solvent, preferably water.

[0456] Especially preferred FS formulations of the compounds of the invention for seed treatment usually comprise from 0.1 to 80% by weight (1 to 800 g / l) of the active ingredient, from 0.1 to 20% by weight (1 to 200 g / l) of at least one surfactant, e.g. 0.05 to 5% by weight of a wetter and from 0.5 to 15% by weight of a dispersing agent, up to 20% by weight, e.g. from 5 to 20% of an anti-freeze agent, from 0 to 15% by weight, e.g. 1 to 15% by weight of a pigment and / or a dye, from 0 to 40% by weight, e.g. 1 to 40% by weight of a binder (sticker / adhesion agent), optionally up to 5% by weight, e.g. from 0.1 to 5% by weight of a thickener, optionally from 0.1 to 2% of an anti-foam agent, and optionally a preservative e.g. a biocide, antioxidant or the like, e.g. in an amount from 0.01 to 1% by weight and a filler / vehicle up to 100% by weight.

[0457] In the treatment of seed, the application rates of the compounds of the invention are generally from 0.1 g to 10 kg per 100 kg of seed, preferably from 1 g to 5 kg per 100 kg of seed, more preferably from 1 g to 1000 g per 100 kg of seed and in particular from 1 g to 200 g per 100 kg of seed, e.g. from 1 g to 100 g or from 5 g to 100 g per 100 kg of seed.The invention therefore also relates to seed comprising a compound of the invention, or an agriculturally useful salt thereof, as defined herein. The amount of the compound of the invention or the agriculturally useful salt thereof will in general vary from 0.1 g to 10 kg per 100 kg of seed, preferably from 1 g to 5 kg per 100 kg of seed, in particular from 1 g to 1000 g per 100 kg of seed. For specific crops e.g. lettuce the rate can be higher.

[0458] The compounds of the invention may also be used for improving the health of a plant. Therefore, the invention also relates to a method for improving plant health by treating a plant, plant propagation material and / or the locus where the plant is growing or is to grow with an effective and non-phytotoxic amount of a compound of the invention.

[0459] As used herein “an effective and non-phytotoxic amount” means that the compound is used in a quantity which allows to obtain the desired effect but which does not give rise to any phytotoxic symptom on the treated plant or on the plant grown from the treated propagule or treated soil. "Plant health" is defined as a condition of the plant and / or its products which is determined by several aspects alone or in combination with each other e.g. yield (e.g. increased biomass and / or increased content of valuable ingredients), quality (e.g. improved content or composition of certain ingredients or shelf life), plant vigour (e.g. improved plant growth and / or greener leaves (“greening effect”), tolerance to abiotic (e.g. drought) and / or biotic stress (e.g. disease) and production efficiency (e.g., harvesting efficiency, processability).

[0460] The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent and may result from each other. Each indicator is defined in the art and can be determined by methods known to a skilled person.

[0461] The compounds of the invention are also suitable for use against non-crop insect pests. For use against said non-crop pests, compounds of the invention can be used as bait composition, gel, general insect spray, aerosol, as ultra-low volume application and bed net (impregnated or surface applied). Furthermore, drenching and rodding methods can be used.

[0462] As used herein, the term “non-crop insect pest” refers to pests, which are particularly relevant for non-crop targets, e.g. ants, termites, wasps, flies, ticks, mosquitoes, bed bugs, crickets, or cockroaches.

[0463] The bait can be a liquid, a solid or a semisolid preparation (e.g. a gel). The bait employed in the composition is a product, which is sufficiently attractive to incite insects e.g. ants, termites, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, crickets etc. or cockroaches to eat it. The attractiveness can be manipulated by using feeding stimulants or sex pheromones. Food stimulants are preferably chosen from animal and / or plant proteins (meat-, fish- or blood meal, insect parts, egg yolk), from fats and oils of animal and / or plant origin, or mono-, oligo- or polyorganosaccharides, especially from sucrose, lactose, fructose, dextrose, glucose, starch, pectin or even molasses or honey. Fresh or decaying parts of fruits, crops, plants, animals, insects or specific parts thereof can also serve as a feeding stimulant. Sex pheromones are known to be more insect specific. Specific pheromones are known (http: / / www.pherobase.com).

[0464] For use in bait compositions, the typical content of active ingredient is from 0.001 wt% to 15 wt%, desirably from 0.001 wt% to 5 wt% of active compound.

[0465] Formulations of the compounds of the invention as aerosols (e.g in spray cans), oil sprays or pump sprays are highly suitable for professional or non-professional users for controlling pests e.g. flies, fleas, ticks, bed bugs, mosquitoes or cockroaches. Aerosol recipes are preferably52

[0466] composed of the active compound, solvents, furthermore auxiliaries e.g. emulsifiers, perfume oils, if appropriate stabilizers, and, if required, propellants.

[0467] The oil spray formulations differ from the aerosol recipes in that no propellants are used.

[0468] For use in spray compositions, the content of active ingredient is from 0.001 to 80 wt%, preferably from 0.01 to 50 wt% and most preferably from 0.01 to 15 wt%.

[0469] The compounds of the invention and its respective compositions can also be used in mosquito and fumigating coils, smoke cartridges, vaporizer plates or long-term vaporizers and also in moth papers, moth pads or other heat-independent vaporizer systems.

[0470] Methods to control infectious diseases transmitted by insects (e.g. malaria, dengue and yellow fever, lymphatic filariasis, and leishmaniasis) with compounds of the invention and its re-spective compositions also comprise treating surfaces of huts and houses, air spraying and impregnation of curtains, tents, clothing items, bed nets, tsetse-flytrap. Insecticidal compositions for application to fibers, fabric, knitgoods, nonwovens, netting material or foils and tarpaulins preferably comprise a mixture including the insecticide, optionally a repellent and at least one binder.

[0471] The compounds of the invention and its compositions can be used for protecting wooden materials e.g. trees, board fences, sleepers, frames, artistic artifacts, etc. and buildings, but also construction materials, furniture, leathers, fibers, vinyl articles, electric wires and cables etc. from ants, termites and / or wood or textile destroying beetles, and for controlling ants and termites from doing harm to crops or human beings (e.g. when the pests invade into houses and public facilities or nest in yards, orchards or parks).

[0472] Customary application rates in the protection of materials are, e.g., from 0.001 g to 2000 g or from 0.01 g to 1000 g of active compound per m2treated material, desirably from 0.1 g to 50 g per m2. Insecticidal compositions for use in the impregnation of materials typically contain from 0.001 to 95 wt%, preferably from 0.1 to 45 wt%, and more preferably from 1 to 25 wt% of at least one repellent and / or insecticide.

[0473] Digital application

[0474] The compounds of the invention and the compositions containing them may be applied in combination with, or by utilizing smart agricultural technologies, such as precision agriculture, remote and proximate imaging and image recognition, or smart agricultural site management programs. These smart agricultural technologies typically include models, e.g. computer programs, that support the user by considering information from a wide variety of sources to increase the quality and yield of harvested material, reduce damage by pests including the prediction of pest pressure and smart application of crop protection products, secure environ-mental protection, support quick and reliable agronomic decision making, reduce usage of fertilizers and crop protection products, reduce product residues in consumables increase spatial and temporal precision of agronomical measures, automate processes, and enable traceability of measures. Commercially available systems which include agronomic models are e.g. FieldScripts™ from The Climate Corporation, Xarvio™ from BASF, AGLogic™ from John Deere, etc.

[0475] Information input for these models include but is not limited to soil data, information on the plants that are currently growing or that may grow at the area of interest including crop plants and / or unwanted vegetation, weather information, information on the location of the area and directly derivable information thereof, information on pest pressure, information on beneficial organisms, and / or historic information of any of the aforementioned.250083

[0476] 53

[0477] The information usable for precision agriculture may be based on input by at least one user, be accessible from external data sources and databases, or be based on sensor data. Data sources typically includes proximate-detection systems like soil-borne sensors and remote sensing as may be achieved by imaging with unmanned airborne vehicles like drones, or satellites. Sensors may be included in an Internet-of-Things system and may be directly or indirectly connected to the processing unit, e.g. via a wireless network and / or cloud applications. The information is typically taken into account by at least one processing unit and used to provide recommendations and generate control signals.

[0478] Typical technologies that are used in smart agricultural technologies include self-steering ro-bots (such as tractors, harvesters, drones), artificial intelligence (e.g. machine learning), imaging technologies (e.g. image segmentation technologies), big data analysis, and model generation, cloud computing, and machine-to-machine communication.

[0479] Precision agriculture such as precision farming is characterized by spatially and / or temporally resolved, targeted application of active ingredients like pesticides, plant-growth-regulators, fertilizers, and / or water including the variation of application rates over the agronomic site, zone or spot application, and of the spatially and / or temporally resolved, targeted planting or seeding of desired plant propagation material to a agronomic site. Precision farming typically includes the use of geo-positioning technologies like GPS for gaining information on the location and boundaries of the area of interest, the utilized application equipment, sensing equipment and recorded data, and to control the actions of farm vehicles such as spraying. By combining geopositioning data with (digital) maps, it is possible to (semi)-automate agricultural measures at the site of interest, e.g. by using (semi)-autonomous spraying or seeding equipment.

[0480] Precision farming may typically include the application of smart spraying equipment, e.g. spot spraying, and precision spraying at a farm, e.g. by irrigation systems, tractors, robots, helicopters, airplanes, unmanned aerial vehicles, such as drones. Such equipment usually includes input sensors (such as e.g. a camera) and a processing unit configured to analyze the input data and configured to provide a recommendation or decision based on the analysis of the input data to apply the compounds of the invention or compositions comprising them to the agronomic site, e.g. the soil, the crop plants, or to control pests in a specific and precise manner. For example, pests may be detected, identified, and / or classified from imagery acquired by a camera. Such identification and / classification can make use of image processing algorithms, which may utilize artificial intelligence (e.g. machine learning algorithms), or decision trees. In this manner, the compounds or compositions described herein can be applied only at the required location, point in time and dose rate.

[0525] Animal health

[0526] The compounds of the invention are suitable for use in treating or protecting animals against infestation or infection by parasites. Therefore, the invention also relates to the use of a compound of the invention for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment or protection of animals against infestation or infection by parasites. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of treating or protecting animals against infestation and infection by parasites, which comprises orally, topically or parenterally administering or applying to the animals a parasiticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0527] The invention also relates to the non-therapeutic use of compounds of the invention for treating or protecting animals against infestation and infection by parasites. Moreover, the invention relates to a non-therapeutic method of treating or protecting animals against infestation and infection by parasites, which comprises applying to a locus a parasiticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0528] The compounds of the invention are further suitable for use in combating or controlling parasites in and on animals. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of combating or con-trolling parasites in and on animals, which comprises contacting the parasites with a parasitically effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0529] The invention also relates to the non-therapeutic use of compounds of the invention for controlling or combating parasites. Moreover, the invention relates to a non-therapeutic method of combating or controlling parasites, which comprises applying to a locus a parasiticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention.

[0530] The compounds of the invention can be effective through both contact (via soil, glass, wall, bed net, carpet, blankets or animal parts) and ingestion (e.g. baits). Furthermore, the compounds of the invention can be applied to any and all developmental stages.

[0531] The compounds of the invention can be applied as such or in form of compositions comprising the compounds of the invention.

[0532] The compounds of the invention can also be applied together with a mixing partner, which acts against pathogenic parasites, e.g. with synthetic coccidiosis compounds, polyetherantibiotics e.g. Amprolium, Robenidin, Toltrazuril, Monensin, Salinomycin, Maduramicin, Lasalocid, Narasin or Semduramicin, or with other mixing partners as defined above, or in form of compositions comprising said mixtures.

[0533] The compounds of the invention and compositions comprising them can be applied orally, parenterally or topically, e.g. dermally. The compounds of the invention can be systemically or non-systemically effective.250083

[0534] 62

[0535] The application can be carried out prophylactically, therapeutically or non-therapeutically. Furthermore, the application can be carried out preventively to places at which occurrence of the parasites is expected.

[0536] As used herein, the term "contacting" includes both direct contact (applying the com-pounds / compositions directly on the parasite, including the application directly on the animal or excluding the application directly on the animal, e.g. at its locus for the latter) and indirect contact (applying the compounds / compositions to the locus of the parasite). The contact of the parasite through application to its locus is an example of a non-therapeutic use of the compounds of the invention.

[0537] The term "locus" means the habitat, food supply, breeding ground, area, material or environment in which a parasite is growing or may grow outside of the animal.

[0538] As used herein, the term “parasites” includes endo- and ectoparasites. In some embodiments of the invention, endoparasites can be preferred. In other embodiments, ectoparasites can be preferred. Infestations in warm-blooded animals and fish include lice, biting lice, ticks, nasal bots, keds, biting flies, muscoid flies, flies, myiasitic fly larvae, chiggers, gnats, mosquitoes and fleas.

[0542] The term “animal” includes warm-blooded animals (including humans) and fish. Preferred are mammals, e.g. cattle, sheep, swine, camels, deer, horses, pigs, poultry, rabbits, goats, dogs and cats, water buffalo, donkeys, fallow deer and reindeer, and also in fur-bearing animals e.g. mink, chinchilla and raccoon, birds e.g. hens, geese, turkeys and ducks and fish e.g. fresh- and saltwater fish e.g. trout, carp and eels. Particularly preferred are domestic animals, e.g. dogs or cats. Generally, "parasiticidally effective amount" means the amount of active ingredient needed to achieve an observable effect on growth, including the effects of necrosis, death, retardation, prevention, and removal, destruction, or otherwise diminishing the occurrence and activity of the target organism. The parasiticidally effective amount can vary for the various compounds / compositions used in the invention. A parasiticidally effective amount of the compositions will also vary according to the prevailing conditions e.g. desired parasiticidal effect and duration, target species, mode of application.

[0543] Generally, it is favorable to apply the compounds of the invention in total amounts of 0.5 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg per day, preferably 1 mg / kg to 50 mg / kg per day.

[0544] For oral administration to warm-blooded animals, the compounds I may be formulated as animal feeds, animal feed premixes, animal feed concentrates, pills, solutions, pastes, suspensions, drenches, gels, tablets, boluses and capsules. In addition, the compounds I may be ad-ministered to the animals in their drinking water. For oral administration, the dosage form chosen should provide the animal with 0.01 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg of animal body weight per day of the compounds I, preferably with 0.5 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg of animal body weight per day.250083

[0545] 64

[0546] Alternatively, the compounds I may be administered to animals parenterally, e.g., by intraruminal, intramuscular, intravenous or subcutaneous injection. The compounds I may be dispersed or dissolved in a physiologically acceptable carrier for subcutaneous injection. Alternatively, the compounds I may be formulated into an implant for subcutaneous administration. In addition the compounds I may be transdermally administered to animals. For parenteral administration, the dosage form chosen should provide the animal with 0.01 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg of animal body weight per day of the compounds I.

[0547] The compounds I may also be applied topically to the animals in the form of dips, dusts, powders, collars, medallions, sprays, shampoos, spot-on and pour-on formulations and in ointments or oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions. For topical application, dips and sprays usually contain 0.5 ppm to 5,000 ppm and preferably 1 ppm to 3,000 ppm of the compounds I. In addition, the compounds I may be formulated as ear tags for animals, particularly quadrupeds e.g. cattle and sheep. Suitable preparations are:

[0548] - Solutions e.g. oral solutions, concentrates for oral administration after dilution, solutions for use on the skin or in body cavities, pouring-on formulations, gels;

[0549] - Emulsions and suspensions for oral or dermal administration; semi-solid preparations;

[0550] - Formulations in which the active compound is processed in an ointment base or in an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion base;

[0551] - Solid preparations e.g. powders, premixes or concentrates, granules, pellets, tablets, boluses, capsules; aerosols and inhalants, and active compound-containing shaped articles.

[0552] Compositions suitable for injection are prepared by dissolving the active ingredient in a suit-able solvent and optionally adding further auxiliaries e.g. acids, bases, buffer salts, preservatives, and solubilizers. Suitable auxiliaries for injection solutions are known in the art. The solutions are filtered and filled sterile.

[0553] Oral solutions are administered directly. Concentrates are administered orally after prior dilution to the use concentration. Oral solutions and concentrates are prepared according to the state of the art and as described above for injection solutions, sterile procedures not being necessary. Solutions for use on the skin are trickled on, spread on, rubbed in, sprinkled on or sprayed on. Solutions for use on the skin are prepared according to the state of the art and according to what is described above for injection solutions, sterile procedures not being necessary.

[0554] Gels are applied to or spread on the skin or introduced into body cavities. Gels are prepared by treating solutions which have been prepared as described in the case of the injection solutions with sufficient thickener that a clear material having an ointment-like consistency results. Suitable thickeners are known in the art.

[0555] Pour-on formulations are poured or sprayed onto limited areas of the skin, the active compound penetrating the skin and acting systemically. Pour-on formulations are prepared by dis-solving, suspending or emulsifying the active compound in suitable skin-compatible solvents or solvent mixtures. If appropriate, other auxiliaries e.g. colorants, bioabsorption-promoting substances, antioxidants, light stabilizers, adhesives are added. Suitable such auxiliaries are known in the art. Emulsions can be administered orally, dermally or as injections. Emulsions are either of the water-in-oil type or of the oil-in-water type. They are prepared by dissolving the active com-pound either in the hydrophobic or in the hydrophilic phase and homogenizing this with the solvent of the other phase with the aid of suitable emulsifiers and, if appropriate, other auxiliaries e.g. colorants, absorption-promoting substances, preservatives, antioxidants, light stabilizers, viscosity-250083

[0556] 65

[0557] enhancing substances. Suitable hydrophobic phases (oils), suitable hydrophilic phases, suitable emulsifiers, and suitable further auxiliaries for emulsions are known in the art.

[0558] Suspensions can be administered orally or topically / dermally. They are prepared by suspending the active compound in a suspending agent, if appropriate with addition of other auxiliaries e.g. wetting agents, colorants, bioabsorption-promoting substances, preservatives, antioxidants, light stabilizers. Suitable suspending agents, and suitable other auxiliaries for suspensions including wetting agents are known in the art.

[0559] Semi-solid preparations can be administered orally or topically / dermally. They differ from the suspensions and emulsions described above only by their higher viscosity.

[0560] For the production of solid preparations, the active compound is mixed with suitable excipients, if appropriate with addition of auxiliaries, and brought into the desired form. Suitable auxiliaries for this purpose are known in the art.

[0561] The compositions which can be used in the invention can comprise generally from about 0.001 to 95% of the compound of the invention.
