Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing combinations of cyclic ketoenols and other insecticidally active compounds often exhibit unsatisfactory activity at low application rates, and mixtures of phthalamides and bioactive compounds do not always achieve optimal insecticidal and acaricidal efficacy.
Innovation Solution
The use of specific combinations of compounds of formula (I) and anthranilamides of formula (II), which show a synergistic effect, providing enhanced insecticidal and acaricidal activity beyond the sum of individual activities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If cyclic ketoenols and other insecticidally active compounds are used at low application rates, then cost and environmental impact are reduced, but insecticidal and acaricidal activity becomes unsatisfactory
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines cyclic ketoenols (formula I) with anthranilamides (formula II) to create a synergistic mixture that achieves superior insecticidal and acaricidal activity at lower application rates compared to individual compounds. This merging of two active substances resolves the contradiction by enabling effective pest control at reduced quantities through synergistic interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates a composite active substance system by combining cyclic ketoenols with anthranilamides in specific ratios. This composite approach allows the mixture to exhibit enhanced biological activity that exceeds the sum of individual components, enabling effective pest control at lower application rates.
2Reliability
If mixtures of phthalamides and bioactive compounds are used, then insecticidal and acaricidal action is achieved, but activity is not always optimal
Solution Approach 1:
The patent optimizes the composition parameters by specifying precise ratios of cyclic ketoenol to anthranilamide in the mixture. This parameter optimization ensures that the synergistic effect is maximized, achieving optimal insecticidal and acaricidal activity that exceeds previous formulations.
3Reliability
If known insecticidal compounds such as heterocycles, organotin compounds, benzoylureas and pyrethroids are used, then insecticidal and acaricidal properties are achieved, but activity is not always satisfactory
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs anthranilamides as intermediary substances that synergistically enhance the activity of cyclic ketoenols. This intermediary approach creates a cooperative interaction between the two compounds, resulting in superior insecticidal and acaricidal activity compared to using either compound alone or with other known insecticides.
