The invention furthermore relates to the preparation of these compounds, agrochemical compositions which comprise at least one of these compounds as the active compound, and the use of the active compounds or compositions for pest control, in particular as microbicides in agriculture and in horticulture.

The compounds I and, where appropriate, their tautomers can be in the form of salts. Since the compounds I have at least one basic centre, they can form, for example, acid addition salts. These are formed, for example, with mineral acids, for example sulfuric acid, a phosphoric acid or a hydrogen halide, with organic carboxylic acids, for example acetic acid or oxalic, malonic, maleic, fumaric or phthalic acid, with hydroxycarboxylic acids, for example ascorbic, lactic, malic, tartaric or citric acid, or with benzoic acid, or with organic sulfonic acids, for example methane- or p-toluenesulfonic acid.

Compounds of the formula I having at least one acid group furthermore can form salts with bases. Suitable salts with bases are, for example, metal salts, such as alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts, for example sodium salts, potassium salts or magnesium salts, or salts with ammonia or an organic amine, such as morpholine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, a mono-, di- or tri-lower alkylamine, for example ethyl-, diethyl-, triethyl- or dimethyl-propyl-amine, or a mono-, di- or trihydroxy-lower alkylamine, for example mono-, di- or triethanolamine. Corresponding internal salts furthermore may be formed, where appropriate. Agrochemically advantageous salts are preferred in the context of the invention.

The general terms used above and below are as defined below, unless defined otherwise.

Alkenyl is to be understood as meaning straight-chain or branched alkenyl, for example allyl, methallyl, 1-methylvinyl or but-2-en-l-yl. Alkenyl radicals having a chain length of 3 to 4 carbon atoms are preferred.

Alkynyl can likewise be straight-chain or branched, depending on the number of carbon atoms, for example propargyl, but-1-yn-l-yl and but-l-yn-3-yl. Propargyl is preferred.

Unsaturated hydrocarbon radicals are alkenyl, alkynyl or alkenynyl groups having not more than 3 multiple bonds, for example butadienyl, hexatrienyl or 2-penten-4-ynyl.

Halogen and halo are fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, preferably fluorine, chlorine or bromine.

Haloalkyl can contain identical or different halogen atoms, and examples would be fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, difluorochloromethyl, trifluoromethyl, chloromethyl, dichloromethyl, trichloromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, 2-fluoroethyl, 2-chloroethyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl and 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl.

Cycloalkyl is cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or cycloheptyl, depending on the ring size.

Cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon radicals can be aromatic, for example phenyl and naphthyl, or non-aromatic, for example cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl, cycloheptenyl and cyclooctadienyl, or partly aromatic, for example tetrahydronaphthyl and indanyl.

Alkanoyl is either straight-chain or branched, in each case taking into account the number of carbon atoms it contains from case to case, and examples would be formyl, acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, pivaloyl or octanoyl.

In alkoxy-, alkylthio-, alkanesulfinyl-, alkanesulfonyl-, nitro- or cyano-substituted carbon-containing groups and compounds, such as alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, alkanesulfinylalkyl, alkanesulfonylalkyl, nitroalkyl, cyanoalkyl and cyanoalkanesulfonyl, one of the hydrogen atoms present in the unsubstituted basic structure on which they are based is replaced by alkoxy, alkylthio, alkanesulfinyl, alkanesulfonyl, nitro or, respectively, cyano.

A heterocyclyl radical is understood as meaning a 5- or 6-membered aromatic or

non-aromatic ring having the hetero atoms N, O and/or S. An unsubstituted or substituted benzo group furthermore can be fused onto such a heterocyclyl radical bonded to the remainder of the molecule.

(19) A particular group of compounds are furthermore those in which, in formula I, X is SR ₁₀ .

The invention furthermore relates to a process for the preparation of compounds of the formula I and, where appropriate, their tautomers, in each case in the free form or in salt form, for example, which comprises reacting:

a) for the preparation of a compound of the formula I in which X is SRι ₀ : a compound of the formula II

in which the substituent A is in the β- or γ-position, and in which R _j to R ₉ , Y and n are as defined for formula I, with a compound of the formula III

in which R ₁₀ is as defined for formula I and Z is a nucleofugic radical which can easily be split off; preferably in the presence of a base, particularly preferably by first reacting a compound of the formula II with a base and then reacting a compound of the formula III; or

b) for the preparation of a compound of the formula I in which X is OR ₁₀ or N(R _n )R ₁₂ : a compound of the formula I in which X is SR ₁₀ with a compound of the formula IV

M-X (IV),

in which:

M is hydrogen, Li ⁺ , Na ⁺ , K ⁺ , l/2Mg ²⁺ or a quaternary ammonium ion;

X is ORio or N(Rn)R ₁₂ , and wherein

R ₁₀ , R _{j j} and R ₁₂ are as defined for formula I; if appropriate in the presence of a base; or

c) for the preparation of a compound of the formula I in which R and R _J are as defined for formula I but are other than hydrogen: a compound of die formula I in which R ₄ and R ₁₄ are hydrogen with a compound of the formula R ₄ '-Z' or R ₁₄ '-Z\ in which R ₄ ' and Rι ' are as defined in formula I for R ₄ and

R ₁₄ , but are other than hydrogen, and Z' is a nucleofugic radical which can easily be split off; preferably in die presence of a base.

Another process for the preparation of a compound of the formula I comprises reacting a compound of die formula VII

in which the substituent A is in the β- or γ-position, and in which Rj to R ₉ , Y and n are as defined for formula I, with phosphorus oxychloride or with sulfuryl chloride to give a compound of the formula VIII

and then reacting this compound with a compound of the formula IV'

M-X' (IV),

in which:

M is hydrogen, Li ⁺ , Na ⁺ , K ⁺ , l/2Mg ²⁺ or a quaternary ammonium ion;

X' is OR ₁₀ , SR ₁₀ or N(R _n )R ₁₂ , and in which R ₁₀ , R _π and R ₁₂ are as defined for formula I; if appropriate in the presence of a base.

The reactions described above and below are carried out in a manner known per se, for example in the absence or usually in the presence of a suitable solvent or diluent or a mixture thereof, the reaction being carried out, as required, by cooling, at room temperature or by heating, for example in a temperature range from about -80°C up to the boiling point of the reaction medium, preferably from about -20°C up to about +150°C, and, if necessary, in a closed vessel, under pressure, in an inert gas atmosphere and/or under anhydrous conditions. Typical reaction conditions can be found in die examples.

Nucleofugic radicals Z and Z' are, for example: fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, C _r C ₈ alkylthio, such as methylthio, ethylthio or propylthio, -Cgalkanoyloxy, such as acetoxy, (halo)Cι-Cgalkanesulfonyloxy, such as methanesulfonyloxy, ethanesulfonyloxy or trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy, or unsubstituted or substituted phenylsulfonyloxy, such as benzenesulfonyloxy or p-toluenesulfonyloxy, and furthermore also hydroxyl.

Suitable bases are, for example, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxides, hydrides, amides, alkanolates, carbonates, dialkylamides or alkylsilylamides, alkylamines, alkylenediamines, non-alkylated or N-alkylated, saturated or unsaturated cycloalkylamines, basic heterocyclic compounds, ammonium hydroxides and carbocyclic amines. Examples are sodium hydroxide, hydride, amide, methanolate and carbonate, potassium tert-butanolate and carbonate, lithium diisopropylamide, potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, calcium hydride, triethylamine, triethylenediamine, cyclohexylamine, N-cyclohexyl-N,N-dimethylamine, N,N-diethylaniline, pyridine, 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine, N-methylmorpholine, benzyl-trimethyl-ammonium hydroxide and l,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-5-ene (DBU).

The reaction partners can be reacted with one another as such, i.e. without addition of a solvent or diluent, for example in the melt. However, the addition of an inert solvent or diluent or a mixture thereof is usually advantageous. Examples of such solvents or diluents which may be mentioned are: aromatic, aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbons and halogenated hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene, bromobenzene, petroleum ether, hexane, cyclohexane, methylene chloride, chloroform, dichloroethane or trichloroethane; ethers, such as diethyl ether, ten-butyl methyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane; ketones, such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone; alcohols,

such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, ethylene glycol or glycerol; esters, such as ethyl acetate or butyl acetate; amides, such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone or hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide; nitriles, such as acetonitrile; and sulfoxides, such as dimethyl sulfoxide. Bases employed in excess, such as triethylamine, pyridine, N-methylmorpholine or N,N-diethylaniline, can also serve as solvent or diluent.

The reaction is advantageously caπied out in a temperature range of about 0°C to about +180°C, preferably about +20°C to about +130°C, in many cases at the reflux temperature of the solvent used.

As an alternative, the reaction can be caπied out under phase transfer catalysis in an organic solvent, for example methylene chloride or toluene, in the presence of an aqueous basic solution, for example sodium hydroxide solution, and a phase transfer catalyst, for example tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate.

A compound I obtainable according to the process or in another manner or, where appropriate, a tautomer thereof can be converted into another compound I in a manner known per se by replacing one or more substituents of the starting compound I by another substituent in the customary manner.

For example:

- substituents which do not contain halogen or non-halogenated aromatic or heteroaromatic ring part structures can be halogenated to halo-containing substituents or halogenated aromatic or heteroaromatic ring part structures;

- halogen substituents can be replaced by other substituents, such as cyano, alkylthio or alkoxy substituents;

- alkanoyl, benzoyl or sulfonyl substituents can be replaced by hydrogen which is easy to replace or

- N-hydrogen can be replaced by N-alkyl, N-benzyl, N-aryl, N-heteroaryl, N-alkanoyl, N-benzoyl or N-sulfonyl;

- sulfides can be oxidized to sulfoxides and sulfones;

- carbonyl groups can be sulfated to thiocarbonyl groups.

Salts of compounds I can be prepared in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, acid addition salts of compounds I are obtained by treatment with a suitable acid or a suitable

ion exchanger reagent, and salts with bases can be obtained by treatment with a suitable base or a suitable ion exchanger reagent.

Salts of compounds I can be converted into the free compounds I in the customary manner, acid addition salts for example by treatment with a suitable basic agent or a suitable ion exchanger reagent and salts with bases for example by treatment with a suitable acid or a suitable ion exchanger reagent

Some of the compounds I can be in the form of one of the possible isomers or as mixtures thereof, for example as pure isomers or as isomer mixtures, such as enantiomer mixtures, for example racemates, diastereomer mixtures or racemate mixtures, depending on the number of and absolute relative configuration of die asymmetric carbon atoms; the invention relates both to the pure isomers and to all die possible isomer mixtures and is in each case to be understood accordingly above and below, although stereochemical details are not mentioned specifically in each case.

Diastereomer mixtures and racemate mixtures of compounds I obtainable according to the process or by another means can be separated into the pure diastereomers or racemates in a known manner on the basis of the physico-chemical differences of the constituents, for example by fractional crystallization, distillation and/or chromatography.

The invention likewise relates to novel starting substances and intermediates used for the preparation of die compounds of the formula I, their use and processes for their preparation.

The compounds of the formula II can be prepared, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula V

in which R R and R ₃ have the meanings given for formula I and Z is a nucleofugic radical which can easily be split off, with a compound of the formula VI

or a salt thereof, preferably in the presence of a base, in which R ₄ to Rg, Y and n are as defined for the formula I.

Another possibility for the preparation of compounds of die formula II comprises reacting a compound of the formula VII with a thionating agent, preferably with phosphorus pentasulfide or with 4-methoxyphenylthiophosphonic acid cyclodithioanhydride ("Lawesson reagent"), if appropriate in a solvent.

The compounds of the formulae III, IV and V are known or can be prepared analogously to known compounds.

The preparation of compounds of the formula V is described, for example, in: D.J. Brown, "The Pyrimidines", in "Heterocyclic Compounds" and in European Patent Application EP-A-0470 600.

Reference may be made to Patent Application No. 509/93-0 filed in Switzerland on 18th February 1993 for the preparation of compounds of the formula VI.

Pyrimidines which are amino-substituted in the 4-position are already known, for example from the Patent Application WO 92/08704. The compounds I of the present invention differ from these known compounds structurally in a characteristic manner; furthermore, the compounds of the formula I of the present invention show an unexpectedly high microbicidal, insecticidal, nematicidal and acaricidal activity. Protection of plants can occur here either by direction action on the pests or by activation and stimulation of the plant's own defence system (immunization).

The compounds of the formula I of the present invention are stable at room temperature to slightly elevated temperature and can easily be stored. They can be used in the agricultural sector and related fields preventively and/or curatively as active compounds for control of plant pests. The active compounds of the formula I according to the invention are

distinguished not only by an outstanding action - even at low use concentrations - but also by a good agricultural acceptability. They have very good advantageous properties, in particular systemic properties, and can be used for protection of numerous crop plants. The pests which occur on plants or parts of plants (fruit, blossom, foliage, stems, tubers, roots) of various crops of useful plants can be checked or destroyed with the active compounds of formula I, parts of plants which grow later also remaining spared, for example from phytopathogenic microorganisms.

The compounds I are active, for example, against phytopathogenic fungi belonging to the following classes: Fungi imperfecti (for example Botrytis, Pyricularia, Helminthosporium, Fusarium, Septoria, Cercospora and Altemaria) and Basidiomycetes (for example Rhizoctonia, Hemileia, Puccinia). They furthermore have an action against the classes of Ascomycetes (for example Venturia and Erysiphe, Podosphaera, Monilinia, Uncinula) and Oomycetes (for example Phytophthora, Pythium, Plasmopara).

The compounds I furthermore can be used as dressing agents for the treatment of seed (fruit, tubers, grains) and plant seedlings for protection from fungal infections and against phytopathogenic fungi which occur in the soil.

The compounds I according to the invention are also useful active compounds in the control of pests of the order Acarina and of the insects and nematode classes on crop and ornamental plants in agriculture, in particular in cotton, vegetable and fruit plantations, in forestry, in the field of protection of stored products and materials, and in the hygiene sector for control of animal pests, in particular on domestic animals and productive livestock. They are active against various stages of development. They can display tiieir action here in the immediate mortality of the pests or only after some time, for example during moulting, or in a significantly reduced oviposition and/or hatching rate. The order of the Acarina includes, for example, Boophilus spp. and Tetranychus Spp.; this list is not limiting.

The invention also relates to the compositions which comprise compounds of the formula I, as the active compound, together with a carrier material, in particular crop protection compositions, and to their use in the agricultural sector and related fields. The invention furthermore also includes the preparation of these compositions, which comprises intimately mixing the active substance with one or more of the extenders and distributing agents described below. The invention also includes a method for the treatment of plants,

which comprises application of the novel compounds I or of the novel compositions.

Target crops for the crop protection use in die context of the invention are, for example, the following plant species: cereals (wheat, barley, rye, oats, rice, maize, sorghum and related species); beet (sugar-beet and feed beet); pome, stone and soft fruit (apples, pears, plums, peaches, almonds, cherries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries); leguminous plants (beans, lentils, peas, soya); oil crops (rape, mustard, poppy, olive, sunflower, coconut, castor, cacao, groundnut); Cucurbitaceae (squash, cucumbers, melons); fibre plants (cotton, flax, hemp, jute); citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, grapefruit, mandarins); vegetable varieties (spinach, lettuce, asparagus, cabbages, carrots, onions, tomatoes, potatoes, paprika); laurel plants (avocado, cinnamonium, camphor) and plants such as tobacco, nuts, coffee, aubergines, sugar cane, tea, pepper, vines, hops, banana and natural rubber plants and ornamentals.

Active compounds I are usually used in the form of compositions and can be applied to the area or plants to be treated at the same time as or successively with other active compounds. These other active compounds can be, for example, fertilizers, trace element mediators or other preparations which influence plant growth. Selective herbicides and insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides or mixtures of several of these preparations together with, where appropriate, further carriers, surfactants or other application-promoting additives customary in formulation technology can also be used here.

Suitable carriers and additives can be solid or liquid and are the substances used for this purpose in formulation technology, for example naturally occurring or regenerated mineral substances, solvents, dispersants, wetting agents, tackifying agents, thickeners, binders or fertilizers.

A preferred process for application of an active compound of the formula I or of an agrochemical composition which comprises at least one of these active compounds is application to the foliage (foliar application). The application frequency and rate of application depend here on the risk of infection by the pathogen in question. However, the active compounds I can also enter the plant through the root system via the soil (systemic action), by soaking the locus of the plant with a liquid composition or incorporating the substances into the soil in solid form, for example in the form of granules (soil application). In the case of paddy rice crops, such granules can be metered into the flooded

rice field. However, die compounds I can also be applied to seed grains (coating) by either soaking the grains in a liquid composition of die active compound or coating them with a solid formulation.

The compounds I are employed here in unchanged form or, preferably, together with the auxiliaries customary in formulation technology. For this purpose, they are advantageously processed in a known manner, for example, to emulsion concentrates, spreadable pastes, directly sprayable or dilutable solutions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts or granules, for example by encapsulation in, for example, polymeric substances. The methods of application, such as spraying, atomizing, dusting, scattering, coating or pouring, like the nature of the compositions, are chosen according to the intended aims and the given circumstances.

Favourable rates of application are in general 5 g to 2 kg of active substance (AS) per hectare (ha), preferably 10 g to 1 kg of AS/ha, in particular 20 g to 600 g of AS/ha. Dosages of 10 mg to 1 g of active substance per kg of seed are advantageously employed for use as seed dressing compositions.

The formulations, i.e. the compositions, formulations or preparations comprising the active compound of the formula I and, where appropriate, a solid or liquid additive, are prepared in a known manner, for example by intimate mixing and/or grinding of the active compound with extenders, such as solvents, solid carriers and, if appropriate, surface-active compounds (surfactants).

Solvents are: aromatic hydrocarbons, preferably C ₈ to C ₁₂ fractions, such as xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalic acid esters, such as dibutyl or dioctyl phthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols and ethers and esters thereof, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol and ethylene glycol monomethyl or -ethyl ether, ketones, such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimediyl sulfoxide or dimethylformamide, and, if appropriate, epoxidized vegetable oils, such as epoxidized coconut oil or soya oil, and water.

The solid carriers used, for example for dusts and dispersible powders, are as a rule naturally occurring rock powders, such as calcite, talc, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite. Highly disperse silicic acid or highly disperse absorbent polymers can also be added to improve the physical properties. Granular, adsorptive granule carriers are porous

types, such as pumice, broken bricks, sepiolite or bentonite, and non-sorptive carrier materials are, for example, calcite or sand. A large number of pregranulated materials of inorganic or organic nature, such as dolomite or comminuted plant residues, furthermore can be used.

Surface-active compounds are nonionic, canonic and or anionic surfactants having good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties, depending on the nature of the active compound of die formula I to be formulated. Surfactants are also to be understood as meaning surfactant mixtures.

Suitable anionic surfactants can be either so-called water-soluble soaps or water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds.

Examples of nonionic surfactants are nonylphenolpolyethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene/polyethylene oxide adducts, tributyphenoxypoly- ethylene-ethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol.

Further surfactants are also fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene-sorbitan, such as polyoxyethylene-sorbitan trioleate.

The cationic surfactants are, in particular, quaternary ammonium salts which contain at least one alkyl radical having 8 to 22 C atoms as N substituents and contain lower, optionally halogenated alkyl, benzyl or lower hydroxyalkyl radicals as further substituents.

Other surfactants customary in formulation technology are known to the expert or can be taken from the relevant technical literature.

The agrochemical compositions as a rule comprise 0.1 to 99 per cent by weight, in particular 0.1 to 95 per cent by weight, of active compound of the formula 1, 99.9 to 1 per cent by weight, in particular 99.8 to 5 per cent by weight, of a solid or liquid additive and 0 to 25 per cent by weight, in particular 0.1 to 25 per cent by weight, of a surfactant.

While concentrated compositions tend to be preferred as commercial goods, the end user as a rule uses dilute compositions.

The compositions can also comprise further additives, such as stabilizers, foam

suppressants, viscosity regulators, binders or tackifiers, as well as fertilizers or other active compounds, in order to achieve specific effects.

The following examples illustrate the invention described above, without limiting it in its scope. Temperatures are stated in degrees Celcius. The following abbreviations are used: Ac = acetyl; Et = ethyl; Iso-Pr = isopropyl; Me = methyl; Ph = phenyl; Pr = n-propyl; Bu = butyl; m.p. = melting point. DS = diastereomer, reg = regioisomer. "NMR" means "nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum". MS = mass spectrum. "%" means "per cent by weight", if corresponding concentrations are not stated in another unit. The term "active compound according to the invention" is in each case to be understood as meaning a compound I or its tautomer, in the free form or in the form of a salt.

Examples for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention

Example H-la: 0.96 g of NaH in oil (~55%) in 15 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran is initially introduced into a sulfonating flask at room temperature. A solution of 6.97 g of 6-[l-(5-chloro-6-ethylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)ethyl]-2H-l,4-benz oxazine-3-thione in 35 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran is tiien added dropwise under an N ₂ atmosphere in the course of about 10 minutes. After brief subsequent stirring, 3.12 g of methyl iodide are added at room temperature and the mixture is then stirred at about 25°C for 4 hours. After the solvent has been stripped off under a water pump vacuum, the residue is purified by column chromatography over silica gel (mobile phase: n-hexane/ethyl acetate 2:1). 6.4 g of 6-[ l-(5-chloro-6-ethylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)ethyl]-3-methylthio-2 H- 1 ,4-benzoxazine are obtained in the form of a yellow powder (m.p. 73-74°C).

Example H- lb: 1.0 g of 6-[l-(5-chloro-6-ethylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)ethyl]-3-methylthi o- 2H-l,4-benzoxazine (H-la) and 1.5 g of sodium methylate (30% solution in methanol) in 15 ml of absolute methanol are initially introduced into a sulfonating flask at room temperature. The mixture is kept under reflux for 3 hours and the solvent is then stripped

off under a water pump vacuum. The residue is purified by column chromatography over silica gel (mobile phase: n-hexane/ethyl acetate 2:1). 0.9 g of

6-[ 1 -(5-chloro-6-edιylpyrimidin-4-yl-amino)ethyl]-3-methoxy-2H - 1 ,4-benzoxazine is obtained in die form of a white powder (m.p. 104-105°C).

Example H-lc: 0.14 g of NaH in oil ( ^" 55%) in 5 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran is initially introduced into a sulfonating flask at room temperature. Thereafter, a solution of 1.05 g of 6-[l-(5-chloro-6-ethylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)ethyl]-2H-l,4-benz oxazine-3-thione in 25 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise under an N ₂ atmosphere in the course of about 10 minutes. The mixture is stirred at 60-65 °C for 15 minutes for complete salt formation, and 0.45 g of allyl bromide is then added. The mixture is kept under reflux for about 2 hours. After the solvent has been stripped off under a water pump vacuum, the residue is taken up in ether/water, the aqueous phase is extracted with ether and the organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and purified by column chromatography over silica gel (mobile phase: n-hexane/diethyl ether 1:1). 1.05 g of 6-[l-(5-chloro-6- ethylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)ethyl]-3-allylthio- 2H-l,4-benzoxazine are obtained in the form of a yellow resin (1H-NMR).

The compounds listed in the following tables can also be prepared in a manner analogous to mat described in Examples H-la to H-lc or by means of another of the corresponding procedures described above.

Biological examples: A. Microbicidal actions

B-l: Action against Puccinia graminis on wheat a) Residual protective action

6 days after sowing, wheat plants are sprayed to drip point with an aqueous spray liquor prepared from a wettable powder of the active compound (0.02% of active substance), and 24 hours later are infected with a uredosporc suspension of the fungus. After an incubation time of 48 hours (conditions: 95 to 100 per cent relative atmospheric humidity at 20°), the plants are placed in a greenhouse at 22°. Evaluation of the development of rust pustules 12 days after infection leads to die assessment of die action of die active substance.

b) Systemic action

5 days after sowing, the wheat plants are watered with an aqueous spray liquor prepared from a wettable powder of the active compound (0.006% of active substance, based on the soil volume). Care is taken that the spray liquor does not come into contact with the parts of plants above the ground. 48 hours later, the plants are infected with a uredosporc suspension of the fungus. After an incubation time of 48 hours (conditions: 95 to 100 per cent relative atmospheric humidity at 20°), die plants are placed in a greenhouse at 22°. Evaluation of the development of rust pustules 12 days after infection gives die assessment of the action of die active substance.

Compounds from Tables 1-8 show a good action against Puccinia fungi. Thus, for example, compounds 1.2, 1.3, 1.6, 3.3, 3.5, 3.11, 3.42, 5.2, 5.3, 5.5, 5.13, 5.52, 5.104, 5.107, 5.108, 5.110, 5.142 and 5.237 reduce fungal attack to 0-20%. In contrast, untreated, infected control plants show a fungal attack of 100%.

Example B-2: Action against Phytophthora infestans on tomatoes a) Residual protective action

After being grown for three weeks, tomato plants are sprayed to drip point with an aqueous spray liquor prepared from a wettable powder of the active compound (0.02% of active substance), and 24 hours later are infected with a sporangia suspension of the fungus.
