FUNGICIDAL AMIDES

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to certain amides, their N-oxides, salts and compositions, and methods of their use as fungicides.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The control of plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens is extremely important in achieving high crop efficiency. Plant disease damage to ornamental, vegetable, field, cereal, and fruit crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer. Many products are commercially available for these purposes, but the need continues for new compounds which are more effective, less costly, less toxic, environmentally safer or have different sites of action.

DETAILS OF THE INVENTION

As used herein, the terms "comprises," "comprising," "includes," "including," "has,"

"having," "contains", "containing," "characterized by" or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, subject to any limitation explicitly indicated. For example, a composition, mixture, process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, mixture, process, method, article, or apparatus.

The transitional phrase "consisting of excludes any element, step, or ingredient not specified. If in the claim, such would close the claim to the inclusion of materials other than those recited except for impurities ordinarily associated therewith. When the phrase "consisting of appears in a clause of the body of a claim, rather than immediately following the preamble, it limits only the element set forth in that clause; other elements are not excluded from the claim as a whole.

The transitional phrase "consisting essentially of is used to define a composition, method or apparatus that includes materials, steps, features, components, or elements, in addition to those literally disclosed, provided that these additional materials, steps, features, components, or elements do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristic(s) of the claimed invention. The term "consisting essentially of occupies a middle ground between

"comprising" and "consisting of.

Where applicants have defined an invention or a portion thereof with an open-ended term such as "comprising," it should be readily understood that (unless otherwise stated) the description should be interpreted to also describe such an invention using the terms

"consisting essentially of or "consisting of." Further, unless expressly stated to the contrary, "or" refers to an inclusive or and not to an exclusive or. For example, a condition A or B is satisfied by any one of the following: A is true (or present) and B is false (or not present), A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present), and both A and B are true (or present).

Also, the indefinite articles "a" and "an" preceding an element or component of the invention are intended to be nonrestrictive regarding the number of instances (i.e. occurrences) of the element or component. Therefore "a" or "an" should be read to include one or at least one, and the singular word form of the element or component also includes the plural unless the number is obviously meant to be singular.

As referred to in the present disclosure and claims, "plant" includes members of

Kingdom Plantae, particularly seed plants (Spermatopsida), at all life stages, including young plants (e.g., germinating seeds developing into seedlings) and mature, reproductive stages (e.g., plants producing flowers and seeds). Portions of plants include geotropic members typically growing beneath the surface of the growing medium (e.g., soil), such as roots, tubers, bulbs and corms, and also members growing above the growing medium, such as foliage (including stems and leaves), flowers, fruits and seeds. As referred to herein, the term "seedling", used either alone or in a combination of words means a young plant developing from the embryo of a seed.

As referred to in this disclosure, the terms "fungal pathogen" and "fungal plant pathogen" include pathogens in the Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Zygomycota phyla, and the fungal-like Oomycota class that are the causal agents of a broad spectrum of plant diseases of economic importance, affecting ornamental, turf, vegetable, field, cereal and fruit crops. In the context of this disclosure, "protecting a plant from disease" or "control of a plant disease" includes preventative action (interruption of the fungal cycle of infection, colonization, symptom development and spore production) and/or curative action (inhibition of colonization of plant host tissues).

As referred to in this disclosure, the term mode of action (MOA) is as defined broadly by the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC), and is used to distinguish fungicide groups according to their biochemical mode of action in the biosynthetic pathways of plant pathogens. These FRAC-defmed MO As are (A) nucleic acid synthesis, (B) mitosis and cell division, (C) respiration, (D) amino acid and protein synthesis, (E) signal transduction, (F) lipid synthesis and membrane integrity, (G) sterol biosynthesis in membranes, (H) cell wall biosynthesis in membranes, (I) melanin synthesis in cell wall, (P) host plant defense induction, multi-site contact activity and unknown mode of action. Each MOA class consists of one or more groups based either on individual validated target sites of action, or in cases where the precise target site is unknown, based on cross resistance profiles within a group or in relation to other groups. Each of these groupings within a FRAC-defmed MOA, whether the target site is known or unknown, is designated by a FRAC code. Additional information on target sites and FRAC codes can be obtained from publicly available databases maintained, for example, by FRAC.

As referred to in this disclosure, the term "cross resistance" refers to a phenomenon wherein a pathogen evolves resistance to one fungicide and in addition acquires resistance to others. These additional fungicides are typically, but not always, in the same chemical class or have the same target site of action, or can be detoxified by the same mechanism.

The total number of carbon atoms in a substituent group is indicated by the "C -Cj" prefix where i and j are numbers from 1 to 5. For example, C^-C ₃ alkoxy designates CH ₃ 0-, CH ₃ CH ₂ 0-, CH ₃ CH ₂ CH ₂ 0- and (CH ₃ ) ₂ CHO-; -C4 alkylsulfonyl designates methylsulfonyl through butylsulfonyl; C ₂ alkoxyalkyl designates CH ₃ OCH ₂ -; C ₃ alkoxyalkyl designates, for example, CH ₃ CH(OCH ₃ )-, CH ₃ OCH ₂ CH ₂ - or CH ₃ CH ₂ OCH ₂ -; and C4 alkoxyalkyl designates the various isomers of an alkyl group substituted with an alkoxy group containing a total of four carbon atoms, examples including CH ₃ CH ₂ CH ₂ OCH ₂ - and CH ₃ CH ₂ OCH ₂ CH ₂ -.

When a compound is substituted with a substituent bearing a subscript that indicates the number of said substituents can exceed 1, said substituents (when they exceed 1) are independently selected from the group of defined substituents, e.g., (R ² ) _n , n is 0, 1, 2 or 3. When a group contains a substituent which can be hydrogen, for example R ⁵ , then when this substituent is taken as hydrogen, it is recognized that this is equivalent to said group being unsubstituted. When a variable group is shown to be optionally attached to a position, for example (R ² ) _n , wherein n may be 0, then hydrogen may be at the position even if not recited in the variable group definition. When one or more positions on a group are said to be "not substituted" or "unsubstituted", then hydrogen atoms are attached to take up any free valency.

Unless otherwise indicated, a "ring" or "ring system" as a component of Formula 1 (e.g., Q group) is carbocyclic or heterocyclic. The terms "carbocyclic ring", "carbocycle" or "carbocyclic ring system" denote a ring or ring system wherein the atoms forming the ring backbone are selected only from carbon. The terms "heterocyclic ring", "heterocycle" or "heterocyclic ring system" denote a ring or ring system in which at least one atom forming the ring backbone is not carbon, e.g., nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur. Typically a heterocyclic ring contains no more than 4 nitrogens, no more than 2 oxygens and no more than 2 sulfurs. Unless otherwise indicated, a carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring can be a saturated or unsaturated ring. "Saturated" refers to a ring having a backbone consisting of atoms linked to one another by single bonds; unless otherwise specified, the remaining carbon valences are occupied by hydrogen atoms. Unless otherwise stated, an "unsaturated ring" may be partially unsaturated or fully unsaturated. The expression "fully unsaturated ring" means a ring of atoms in which the bonds between atoms in the ring are single or double bonds according to valence bond theory and furthermore the bonds between atoms in the ring include as many double bonds as possible without double bonds being cumulative (i.e. no C=C=C or C=C=N). The term "partially unsaturated ring" denotes a ring comprising at least one ring member bonded to an adjacent ring member through a double bond and which conceptually potentially accommodates a number of non-cumulated double bonds between adjacent ring members (i.e. in its fully unsaturated counterpart form) greater than the number of double bonds present (i.e. in its partially unsaturated form).

Unless otherwise indicated, heterocyclic rings and ring systems can be attached through any available carbon or nitrogen by replacement of a hydrogen atom on said carbon or nitrogen.

"Aromatic" indicates that each of the ring atoms is essentially in the same plane and has a /^-orbital perpendicular to the ring plane, and that (4n + 2) π electrons, where n is a positive integer, are associated with the ring to comply with Huckel's rule. The term "aromatic ring system" denotes a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring system in which at least one ring of the ring system is aromatic. When a fully unsaturated carbocyclic ring satisfies Huckel's rule, then said ring is also called an "aromatic ring" or "aromatic carbocyclic ring".

The term "aromatic carbocyclic ring system" denotes a carbocyclic ring system in which at least one ring of the ring system is aromatic. When a fully unsaturated heterocyclic ring satisfies Huckel's rule, then said ring is also called a "heteroaromatic ring" or "aromatic heterocyclic ring". The term "aromatic heterocyclic ring system" denotes a heterocyclic ring system in which at least one ring of the ring system is aromatic. The term "nonaromatic ring system" denotes a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring system that may be fully saturated, as well as partially or fully unsaturated, provided that none of the rings in the ring system are aromatic. The term "nonaromatic carbocyclic ring system" denotes a carbocyclic ring in which no ring in the ring system is aromatic. The term "nonaromatic heterocyclic ring system" denotes a heterocyclic ring system in which no ring in the ring system is aromatic.

The term "optionally substituted" in connection with the heterocyclic rings refers to groups which are unsubstituted or have at least one non-hydrogen substituent that does not extinguish the biological activity possessed by the unsubstituted analog. As used herein, the following definitions shall apply unless otherwise indicated. The term "optionally substituted" is used interchangeably with the phrase "substituted or unsubstituted" or with the term "(un)substituted." Unless otherwise indicated, an optionally substituted group may have a substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and each substitution is independent of the other. When a compound is substituted with a substituent bearing a subscript that indicates the number of said substituents can exceed 1 , said substituents (when they exceed 1) are independently selected from the group of defined substituents, e.g., (R ² ) _n n is 0, 1 , 2 or 3. When a group contains a substituent which can be hydrogen, for example, R ¹ , then when this substituent is taken as hydrogen, it is recognized that this is equivalent to said group being unsubstituted. When a variable group is shown to be optionally attached to a position, for example (R ² ) _n , wherein n may be 0, then hydrogen may be at the position even if not recited in the variable group definition. When one or more positions on a group are said to be "not substituted" or "unsubstituted", then hydrogen atoms are attached to take up any free valency.

As referred to by the present disclosure and claims, an "unsaturated or partially unsaturated heterocyclic ring" is a heterocyclic ring wherein at least two ring member atoms are linked together by a double bond. Unless otherwise stated, an "unsaturated or partially heterocyclic ring" (e.g., substituent Q) may be partially unsaturated or fully unsaturated. The expression "fully unsaturated heterocyclic ring" means a heterocyclic ring of atoms in which the bonds between carbon and/or nitrogen atoms in the ring are single or double bonds according to valence bond theory and furthermore the bonds between carbon and/or nitrogen atoms in the ring include as many double bonds as possible without double bonds being cumulative (i.e. no C=C=C, N=C=C, etc.). The term "partially unsaturated heterocyclic ring" denotes a heterocyclic ring comprising at least one ring member bonded to an adjacent ring member through a double bond and which conceptually potentially accommodates a number of non-cumulated double bonds between adjacent ring members (i.e. in its fully unsaturated counterpart form) greater than the number of double bonds present (i.e. in its partially unsaturated form). When a fully unsaturated heterocyclic ring satisfies Huckel's rule, then said ring is also called a "heteroaromatic ring" or "aromatic heterocyclic ring".

As shown in the Summary of the Invention, G is a radical selected from the group consisting of G-l, G-2, G-3, G-4 and G-5. As depicted in the Summary of the Invention, the bond of the G ring projecting to the left is attached to the remainder of Formala 1 through L. The bond projecting to the lower right side of the G ring represents the attachment point of the Q ring. Note the Q ring resides in a fixed position on the G ring and does not "float" in relation to the attachment point of the G ring to L. Note, however, that the (R ² ) _n variable as depicted on the G ring in the Summary of the Invention may "float" around the G ring and may therefore be bonded to any available carbon atoms on the each respective G ring.

In the Summary of the Invention the "unsaturated or partially unsaturated" heterocyclic ring of Q is specified to be 5-membered, with ring members selected from carbon atoms and up to 4 heteroatoms independently selected from up to 1 O, up to 1 S and up to 4 N atoms, wherein up to 2 carbon atoms are independently selected from C(=0). The heterocyclic ring is optionally substituted with one substituent selected from R ^14c or R ¹⁴ⁿ on one ring member distal relative to the ring member connecting the heteroaromatic ring to the remainder of Formula 1. As depicted in Exhibit 1, in the five-membered heterocyclic ring of Q, a ring member distal relative to the ring member connecting the ring to the remainder of Formula 1 is linked through two ring bonds to the connecting ring member. The heterocyclic ring of Q is further optionally substituted with substituents selected from R ^15c on carbon atom ring members and R ¹⁵ⁿ on nitrogen atom ring members. Exhibit 1

Optional R ^{1 c} or R ^{1 n} substitution on the Q ring of Formula 1

of Formula 1

atom is carbon or nitrogen

Certain heterocycles forming Q may have two distal ring members available for substitution. In this situation, only one of the distal ring members may be substituted with R ^{1 c} or R ^{1 n} ; the other distal ring member may be substituted with R ^15c or R ¹⁵ⁿ . If neither of the distal ring members of a heterocycle forming Q are available for substitution, then any additional substituents on the heterocycle are selected from R ^15c or R ¹⁵ⁿ . If a distal ring member can have two substituents, one substituent may be selected from R ^{1 c} or R ^{1 n} and the other substituent may be selected from R ^15c or R ¹⁵ⁿ . In other words, the Q ring is limited to one R ^{1 c} or R ^{1 n} substituent and this substituent must be bonded to a distal ring member; the Q ring can otherwise be further substituted with R ^15c or R ¹⁵ⁿ on any available ring member.

If an attachment point on a group (e.g., ring) is depicted as floating (e.g., as illustrated by the 5-membered unsaturated or partially unsaturated heterocyclic rings Q-l through Q-21 in Exhibit 4) the group can be attached to the remainder of Formula 1 through any available carbon or nitrogen of the group by replacement of a hydrogen atom. If the attachment point of a substituent on a group (e.g., ring) is depicted as floating (e.g., as illustrated for R ¹⁴ and R ¹⁵ on the 5-membered unsaturated heterocyclic rings Q-l through Q-21 in Exhibit 4), the substituent can be attached to any available carbon or nitrogen atom by replacing a hydrogen atom.

A wide variety of synthetic methods are known in the art to enable preparation of aromatic and nonaromatic heterocyclic rings and ring systems; for extensive reviews see the eight volume set of Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, A. R. Katritzky and C. W. Rees editors-in-chief, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1984 and the twelve volume set of Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry II, A. R. Katritzky, C. W. Rees and E. F. V. Scriven editors-in-chief, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1996.

As specified in the Summary of the Invention and elsewhere in the present disclosure, linking group L in Formula 1 can be -C(R ^12a )R ¹² ^-C(R ^13a )R ¹³ ^-, wherein the carbon atom bonded to R ^12a and R ¹² ^ is also bonded to the carboxamide nitrogen atom in Formula 1. In this context, the carboxamide is an ordinary carboxamide when Z is O or a thiocarboxamide when Z is S.

Also as specified in the Summary of the Invention and elsewhere in the present disclosure, linking group L in Formula 1 can be 1 ,2-phenylene optionally substituted with up to 4 substituents independently selected from halogen and C1-C2 alkyl. As shown in Exhibit 2, "1,2-phenylene" is understood to refer to a benzene ring that is connected to the remainder of the molecule (e.g., Formula 1) at ortho positions (hence "1,2-") and optionally substituted with halogen and C1-C2 alkyl at the four remaining positions on the ring.

1,2-phenylene

wherein each R ⁵¹ is independently halogen or C1-C2 alkyl, and p is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4. Linking group L being optionally substituted 1,2-phenylene is further illustrated by the molecular structure depictions associated with Tables 1-1221 and Index Table A.

Compounds of this invention can exist as one or more stereoisomers. The various stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, atropisomers and geometric isomers. One skilled in the art will appreciate that one stereoisomer may be more active and/or may exhibit beneficial effects when enriched relative to the other stereoisomer(s) or when separated from the other stereoisomer(s). Additionally, the skilled artisan knows how to separate, enrich, and/or to selectively prepare said stereoisomers. The compounds of the invention may be present as a mixture of stereoisomers, individual stereoisomers or as an optically active form. For example, when R ¹² ^ and R ¹³ ^ are both H, and R ^12a and R ^13a are other than H, then Formula 1 possesses chiral centers at the carbon atoms to which R ¹² ^ and R ¹³ b are bonded, allowing for two racemic diastereomers, designated as anti and syn. Each racemic diastereomer is comprised of a pair of enantiomers, i.e. the anti diastereomer is comprised of enantiomers 1' and 1", and the syn diastereomer is comprised of enantiomers V and 2" as shown below in Exhibit 2, with the chiral centers identified with an asterisk (*).

2' Syn Enantiomers 2"

Molecular depictions drawn herein follow standard conventions for depicting stereochemistry. To indicate stereoconfiguration, bonds rising from the plane of the drawing and towards the viewer are denoted by solid wedges wherein the broad end of the wedge is attached to the atom rising from the plane of the drawing towards the viewer. Bonds going below the plane of the drawing and away from the viewer are denoted by dashed wedges wherein the narrow end of the wedge is attached to the atom further away from the viewer. Constant width lines indicate bonds with a direction opposite or neutral relative to bonds shown with solid or dashed wedges; constant width lines also depict bonds in molecules or parts of molecules in which no particular stereoconfiguration is intended to be specified.

This invention comprises racemic mixtures, for example, equal amounts of the enantiomers of Formulae 1' and 1" . In addition, this invention includes compounds that are enriched compared to the racemic mixture in an enantiomer of Formula 1. Also included are the essentially pure enantiomers of compounds of Formula 1, for example, Formula 1' or Formula 1".

When enantiomerically enriched, one enantiomer is present in greater amounts than the other, and the extent of enrichment can be defined by an expression of enantiomeric excess ("ee"), which is defined as (2χ-1)· 100 %, where x is the mole fraction of the dominant enantiomer in the mixture (e.g., an ee of 20 % corresponds to a 60:40 ratio of enantiomers).

Preferably the compositions of this invention have at least a 50 % enantiomeric excess; more preferably at least a 75 % enantiomeric excess; still more preferably at least a 90 % enantiomeric excess; and the most preferably at least a 94 % enantiomeric excess of the more active isomer. Of particular note are enantiomerically pure embodiments of the more active isomer. Compounds of Formula 1 can comprise additional chiral centers. For example, substituents and other molecular constituents such as R ² may themselves contain chiral centers. This invention comprises racemic mixtures as well as enriched and essentially pure stereoconfigurations at these additional chiral centers.

Compounds of this invention can exist as one or more conformational isomers due to restricted rotation about the amide bond (e.g., C(O)-N) in Formula 1. This invention comprises mixtures of conformational isomers. In addition, this invention includes compounds that are enriched in one conformer relative to others.

This invention comprises all stereoisomers, conformational isomers and mixtures thereof in all proportions as well as isotopic forms such as deuterated compounds.

One skilled in the art will appreciate that not all nitrogen containing heterocycles can form N-oxides since the nitrogen requires an available lone pair for oxidation to the oxide; one skilled in the art will recognize those nitrogen-containing heterocycles which can form N-oxides. One skilled in the art will also recognize that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for the preparation of N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are very well known by one skilled in the art including the oxidation of heterocycles and tertiary amines with peroxy acids such as peracetic and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA), hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides such as t-butyl hydroperoxide, sodium perborate, and dioxiranes such as dimethyldioxirane. These methods for the preparation of N-oxides have been extensively described and reviewed in the literature, see for example: T. L. Gilchrist in Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, vol. 7, pp 748-750, S. V. Ley, Ed., Pergamon Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 3, pp 18-20, A. J. Boulton and A. McKillop, Eds., Pergamon Press; M. R. Grimmett and B. R. T. Keene in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 43, pp 149-161, A. R. Katritzky, Ed., Academic Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 9, pp 285-291, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press; and G. W. H. Cheeseman and E. S. G. Werstiuk in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 22, pp 390-392, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press.

One skilled in the art recognizes that because in the environment and under physiological conditions salts of chemical compounds are in equilibrium with their corresponding nonsalt forms, salts share the biological utility of the nonsalt forms. Thus a wide variety of salts of the compounds of Formula 1 are useful for control of plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens (i.e. are agriculturally suitable). The salts of the compounds of Formula 1 include acid-addition salts with inorganic or organic acids such as hydrobromic, hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, acetic, butyric, fumaric, lactic, maleic, malonic, oxalic, propionic, salicylic, tartaric, 4-toluenesulfonic or valeric acids. When a compound of Formula 1 contains an acidic moiety such as a carboxylic acid or phenol, salts also include those formed with organic or inorganic bases such as pyridine, triethylamine or ammonia, or amides, hydrides, hydroxides or carbonates of sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, magnesium or barium. Accordingly, the present invention comprises compounds selected from Formula 1, N-oxides and agriculturally suitable salts thereof.

Compounds selected from Formula 1, stereoisomers, tautomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof, typically exist in more than one form, and Formula 1 thus includes all crystalline and non-crystalline forms of the compounds that Formula 1 represents. Non-crystalline forms include embodiments which are solids such as waxes and gums as well as embodiments which are liquids such as solutions and melts. Crystalline forms include embodiments which represent essentially a single crystal type and embodiments which represent a mixture of polymorphs (i.e. different crystalline types). The term "polymorph" refers to a particular crystalline form of a chemical compound that can crystallize in different crystalline forms, these forms having different arrangements and/or conformations of the molecules in the crystal lattice. Although polymorphs can have the same chemical composition, they can also differ in composition due to the presence or absence of co- crystallized water or other molecules, which can be weakly or strongly bound in the lattice. Polymorphs can differ in such chemical, physical and biological properties as crystal shape, density, hardness, color, chemical stability, melting point, hygroscopicity, suspensibility, dissolution rate and biological availability. One skilled in the art will appreciate that a polymorph of a compound represented by Formula 1 can exhibit beneficial effects (e.g., suitability for preparation of useful formulations, improved biological performance) relative to another polymorph or a mixture of polymorphs of the same compound represented by Formula 1. Preparation and isolation of a particular polymorph of a compound represented by Formula 1 can be achieved by methods known to those skilled in the art including, for example, crystallization using selected solvents and temperatures. For a comprehensive discussion of polymorphism see R. Hilfiker, Ed., Polymorphism in the Pharmaceutical Industry, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 2006.

A compound of Formula 1C (i.e. a subset of a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; and Q is an N-linked heterocycle, Q ^N ) and a compound of Formula ID (i.e. a subset of a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; and Q is a C-linked heterocycle, Q ^c ) can be prepared from the intermediates of a compound of Formula 2 as outlined in Scheme 2 below.

Scheme 2

Preparation of a compound of Formula 1C can be achieved via Buchwald-Hartwig coupling of an intermediate of Formula 2 with 1 to 3 eq. of a heterocycle of Formula 3 (wherein H is bonded to a nitrogen atom of the heterocycle) in an inert solvent in the presence of 0.1 to 1.0 eq. of a suitable ligand, 0.1 to 1.0 eq. of a copper(I) salt, and 5 to 10 eq. of a carbonate base. Such transformations are well-documented in the literature (see, for example, Tetrahedron Letters 2010, 52(38), 5052 and J. Med. Chem. 2010, 55(10), 4248). Typical ligands for the reaction are phenanthroline 1 ,2-diaminocyclohexane or 1 ,2-dialkylaminocyclohexane, while Cul and CuBr may be employed as the copper(I) salts. Carbonate bases such as sodium or potassium carbonate can also be used as the base. Suitable solvents for the reaction are dioxane, 1 ,2-dimethoxyethane or toluene and the reaction is carried out at temperatures ranging from ambient to the reflux temperature of the solvent for times ranging from 1 to 48 h. An amine of Formula 3 is commercially available, or can be readily prepared by the skilled practitioner using well-established protocols. A Comound of Formula ID in Scheme 2 can be prepared via Suzuki-Miyura coupling of an intermediate of Formula 2 with one or more equivalents of a boron intermediate such as a compound of Formula 4 in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium(O) with a ligand, or a palladium(II) salt with a ligand as described analogously to commonly-practiced methods disclosed in Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, 3484 and Tetrahedron Letters 2002, 55(14), 2885. The reaction can be conducted in solvents selected from diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and acetonitrile. A base is also present in amounts ranging from 5 to 20 eq. Suitable bases for this transformation include sodium, potassium or cesium carbonate, while palladium(II) salts such as Pd(OAc)2 or PdCl2 are commonly employed in conjunction with ligands such as triphenylphosphine or Ι,Γ- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene. The reaction is conducted at temperatures ranging from ambient to the reflux temperature of the solvent. A boron intermediate of Formula 4 is either commercially available, or can be prepared easily from the corresponding halides or triflates via known methods disclosed in, for example, WO2007/034278, U.S. Pat. No. 8,080,566, Org. Lett. 2011, 75(6), 1366, and Org. Lett. 2012, 14(2), 600.

Compounds of Formulae 1C and ID can alternatively be prepared from boron intermediates of a compound of Formula 5 as shown in Scheme 3 below. Chan-Lam conversion of an intermediate of a compound of Formula 5 to a compound of Formula 1C can be accomplished as described in Tetrahedron Letters 1998, 38, 2941, or Chemistry Letters 2010, 39(1), 764. An intermediate of Formula 5 is reacted in an inert solvent with 1 to 2 eq. of a heterocyclic amine of Formula 3 (i.e. Q ^N is an heterocycle with a free NH available for bonding) and a base in the presence of 1 to 5 eq. of a Cu(II) salt at temperatures ranging from ambient to the reflux temperature of the solvent for 24 to 72 h. Suitable solvents include dichloromethane, chloroform, diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran. Suitable bases include pyridine, quinoline and triethylamine which can be used in the amount of from 1 to 5 eq. Examples of Cu(II) salts that may be used include Cu(OAc)2, CuBr ₂ and Cul2 which can be used in amounts ranging from 1 to 5 eq. An amine of Formula 3 is either commercially available, or is readily prepared as mentioned above. A compound of Formula ID can be obtained by reacting a boron intermediate of Formula 5 with a heterocyclic intermediate of Formula 6, where X is bonded to a carbon atom of the heterocycle. Methods for conducting this Suzuki-Miyura coupling are analogous to those described above in Scheme 2 for the coupling of intermediates of a compound of Formula 2 with a boron intermediate of Formula 4 to provide a compound of Formula ID. An intermediate of Formula 6 is commercially available, or can be easily prepared by one skilled in the art via known methodology.

Scheme 3

A boron intermediate of Formula 5 can be prepared from an intermediate of Formula 2 in Scheme 2 using the same methods cited above for the preparation of a boron intermediate of Formula 4 in Scheme 2 from the corresponding halides or triflates as described in WO2007/034278, U.S. Pat. No. 8,080,566, Org. Lett. 2011, 75(6), 1366, and Org. Lett. 2012, 14(2), 600. A compound of Formula 2 in Scheme 2 above can be prepared by coupling an amine of Formula 7 with an acid intermediate of Formula 8 as shown in Scheme 4. Such couplings are common in organic synthesis and can be conducted under a wide variety of conditions (see March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 3 ^rd ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1985, p. 1152).

A reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride can then be added to the reaction mixture followed by further reaction for 1 to 24 h at temperatures ranging from 0 °C to the reflux temperature of the solvent.

Transformation of an intermediate of Formula 13A to an intermediate of Formula 13 can be accomplished using methods analogous to those shown for the conversion of a compound of Formula 2 to compounds of Formulae 1C and ID as shown in Scheme 2. An intermediate of Formula 13 can then be deprotected to provide the intermediate of Formula 9A. Many types of protecting groups are available for this sequence as outlined in Greene, T. W.; Wuts, P.

Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006, 54(1), 125. Subsequent reaction with a fluorinating agent such as diethylamino sulfur trifluride (i.e. DAST) can provide an intermediate of Formula 20 by analogy to the methods cited in WO2006/015159. Conversion to an amine Formula 9E can then be accomplished according to the previously-described sequence Scheme 8 for the conversion of an amine of Formula 9 to an amine of Formula 9A.

An amine of Formula 9F (i.e. a compound of Formula 9 wherein L is -CH ₂ CF2-) is preparable as shown in Scheme 18 below from a ketone intermediate of Formula 18. A ketone of Formula 18 is first protected with an appropriate protecting group as to afford the protected aminoketone of Formula 21 as described previously in Scheme 8 for the protection of amines of Formula 9 to afford a protected amine of Formula 9A. Treatment of the protected amino ketone of Formula 21 with a fluorinating agent such as DAST can deliver a difluorinated intermediate of Formula 22, as described in WO2011/079102. The desired amine intermediate of Formula 9F may then be accessed by subjection of a compound of Formula 22 to the previously-described sequence in Scheme 8 for the conversion of an amine of Formula 13 to an amine of Formula 9A. An aminoketone of Formula 18 in Schemes 17 and 18 can be synthesized by analogous methods described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,106,986 and Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry 2006, 54(\).

As shown in Scheme 19, a compound of Formula IF (i.e. a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; and L is 1 ,2-phenylene optionally substituted with up to 4-substitutents independently selected from halogen and -C2 alkyl) can be prepared by coupling of a boronate of Formula 23 with an intermediate of Formula 24 under the Suzuki conditions described in Scheme 2. Alternatively, a trialkyl tin compound of Formula 25 can be coupled with an intermediate of Formula 24 under Stille conditions to give a compound of Formula IF. Stille couplings typically are conducted in the presence of Pd(0) or a Pd(II) salt, a ligand and a Cu(I) salt such as copper(I) iodide. The reaction is run in a solvent such as dioxane, 1 ,2-dimethoxyethane or toluene at a temperature ranging from ambient to the reflux temperature of the solvent. For conditions and reagents employed in Stille couplings see Chemical Reviews 2007, 107(1), 133. An intermediate of Formulae 23 and 25 can be prepared using commercially available starting materials or the methods outlined in Schemes 4 and 7.

Scheme 19

25 An intermediate of Formula 24 is either commercially available or can be prepared as shown in Scheme 20 from an intermediate of Formula 26 by a variety of methods known to one skilled in the art. For example, when Q in a compound of Formula 24 is a nitrogen-linked heterocycle denoted by Q ^N , and J in a compound of Formula 26 is halogen or trifluoromethanesulfonate, a compound of Formula 24 can either be prepared using the Buchwald-Hartwig conditions described for Scheme 2, or by reaction with heterocyclic amines Q ^N -H (i.e. a compound of Formula 3) in the presence of a suitable base and solvent as illustrated in U.S. 20120202834, J. Med. Chem. 2012 55(21), 9089, WO2011016559 or WO2010139731. Alternatively, an intermediate of Formula 26 wherein J is a boronic acid or boronate ester, can be coupled with a heterocycle of Formula 3 using the Chan-Lam conditions as described for Scheme 3 to provide a compound of Formula 24 wherein Q is Q ^N . A compound of Formula 24 wherein Q is a carbon-linked heterocycle denoted by Q ^c can be accessed by coupling a precursor of Formula 26 wherein J is Br, CI, I or trifluoromethanesulfonate with boronate-substituted heterocycles Q ^c -B(OR)2 (i.e. a compound of Formula 4 in Scheme 2) using the Suzuki conditions of Scheme 2 or with trialkyltin-substituted heterocycles Q ^c -Sn(R) ₃ using the Stille conditions of Scheme 19. Alternatively, a compound of Formula 26 wherein J is a boronate or trialkyltin group may also be coupled with halogen-substituted heterocycles Q ^c -X using the methods shown in Schemes 2 or 19, respectively, to afford a compound of Formula 24 wherein Q is Q ^c . The skilled chemist will realize that prudent choice of groups X ⁶ and J in reactions involving a compound of Formula 26 is needed, and that isomeric products can occur in cases where groups X ⁶ and J are similar in reactivity. In cases where regioisomeric mixtures are produced, the desired product can be isolated using routine separation techniques known in the art.

Scheme 20

26 24

When J in a compound of Formula 26 is a functional group such as an alkene, alkyne, oxime, nitrile or ketone, the functional group an be converted to various heterocycles using methods described in Katritsky, Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, Elsevier, Vol. 1-104.

As shown in Scheme 21 a compound of Formula IF can also be prepared by coupling an intermediate analogous to those depicted in Scheme 19 wherein functional groups in the starting reagents have been interchanged. Thus, coupling of an intermediate of Formula 27 with a boronate ester of Formula 24A and a trialkyltin intermediate of Formula 24B using methods described in Scheme 19 affords a compound of Formula IF.

R-" is C!-C ₄ alkyl It is recognized that some reagents and reaction conditions described above for preparing a compound of Formula 1 may not be compatible with certain functionalities present in the intermediates. In these instances, the incorporation of protection/deprotection sequences or functional group interconversions into the synthesis will aid in obtaining the desired products. The use and choice of the protecting groups will be apparent to one skilled in chemical synthesis (see, for example, Greene, T. W.; Wuts, P. G. M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd ed.; Wiley: New York, 1991). One skilled in the art will recognize that, in some cases, after the introduction of a given reagent as it is depicted in any individual scheme, it may be necessary to perform additional routine synthetic steps not described in detail to complete the synthesis of compounds of Formula 1.

Table 2 is constructed in the same fashion as Table 1 , except in the Row Heading the phrase "A is A-la; n is 0" is replaced with the phrase "A is A-la; (R^) _n is 5-F" as shown below in the column labeled Row Heading for Table 2. For Table 2 where R ² is 5-F it is understood to mean that n is 1 and R ² is F located at the 5-position of the G ring. Therefore, the first entry in Table 2 is a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; R ¹ is H; L is 1 ,2-phenylene; G is G-1; A is A-la; R ² is 5-F; n is 1; and Q is 3-CF3-pyrazol-l-yl. The second entry in Table 2 is a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; R ¹ is H; L is 1 ,2-phenylene; G is G-1; A is A-la; R ² is 5-F; n is 1; and Q is 4-CF3-lH-pyrazol-l-yl. The remaining entries in Table 2 are constructed in the same manner.

Tables 3 through 272 are constructed similarly.

Table 966

Table 966 is constructed as Table 1 except the chemical structure is replaced with the following structure:

wherein A is A-la; n is 0; and each Q is selected from the values listed in Exhibit B. Therefore, the first entry in Table 968 is a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; R ¹ is H; L is 1 ,2-phenylene; G is G-4; A is A-la; n is 0; and Q is 3-CF3-pyrazol-l-yl. The second entry in Table 966 is a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is O; R ¹ is H; L is 1 ,2-phenylene; G is G-4; A is A-la; n is 0; and Q is 4-CF3-lH-pyrazol-l-yl. The remaining entries in Table 966 are constructed in the same manner.

Tables 967 through 1221 are constructed similarly.

Formulation/Utility

A compound of Formula 1 of this invention (including N-oxides and salts thereof) will generally be used as a fungicidal active ingredient in a composition, i.e. formulation, with at least one additional component selected from the group consisting of surfactants, solid diluents and liquid diluents, which serve as a carrier. The formulation or composition ingredients are selected to be consistent with the physical properties of the active ingredient, mode of application and environmental factors such as soil type, moisture and temperature.

Useful formulations include both liquid and solid compositions. Liquid compositions include solutions (including emulsifiable concentrates), suspensions, emulsions (including microemulsions and/or suspoemulsions) and the like, which optionally can be thickened into gels. The general types of aqueous liquid compositions are soluble concentrate, suspension concentrate, capsule suspension, concentrated emulsion, microemulsion and suspo-emulsion. The general types of nonaqueous liquid compositions are emulsifiable concentrate, microemulsifiable concentrate, dispersible concentrate and oil dispersion.

The general types of solid compositions are dusts, powders, granules, pellets, prills, pastilles, tablets, filled films (including seed coatings) and the like, which can be water-dispersible ("wettable") or water-soluble. Films and coatings formed from film- forming solutions or flowable suspensions are particularly useful for seed treatment. Active ingredient can be (micro)encapsulated and further formed into a suspension or solid formulation; alternatively the entire formulation of active ingredient can be encapsulated (or "overcoated"). Encapsulation can control or delay release of the active ingredient. An emulsifiable granule combines the advantages of both an emulsifiable concentrate formulation and a dry granular formulation. High-strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation.

Sprayable formulations are typically extended in a suitable medium before spraying. Such liquid and solid formulations are formulated to be readily diluted in the spray medium, usually water, but occasionally another suitable medium like an aromatic or paraffmic hydrocarbon or vegetable oil. Spray volumes can range from about one to several thousand liters per hectare, but more typically are in the range from about ten to several hundred liters per hectare. Sprayable formulations can be tank mixed with water or another suitable medium for foliar treatment by aerial or ground application, or for application to the growing medium of the plant. Liquid and dry formulations can be metered directly into drip irrigation systems or metered into the furrow during planting. Liquid and solid formulations can be applied onto seeds of crops and other desirable vegetation as seed treatments before planting to protect developing roots and other subterranean plant parts and/or foliage through systemic uptake.

The formulations will typically contain effective amounts of active ingredient, diluent and surfactant within the following approximate ranges which add up to 100 percent by weight. Weight Percent

Liquid diluents also include glycerol esters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (typically C ₆ -C ₂ 2), such as plant seed and fruit oils (e.g., oils of olive, castor, linseed, sesame, corn (maize), peanut, sunflower, grapeseed, safflower, cottonseed, soybean, rapeseed, coconut and palm kernel), animal-sourced fats (e.g., beef tallow, pork tallow, lard, cod liver oil, fish oil), and mixtures thereof. Liquid diluents also include alkylated fatty acids (e.g., methylated, ethylated, butylated) wherein the fatty acids may be obtained by hydrolysis of glycerol esters from plant and animal sources, and can be purified by distillation. Typical liquid diluents are described in Marsden, Solvents Guide, 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950.

The solid and liquid compositions of the present invention often include one or more surfactants. When added to a liquid, surfactants (also known as "surface-active agents") generally modify, most often reduce, the surface tension of the liquid. Depending on the nature of the hydrophilic and lipophilic groups in a surfactant molecule, surfactants can be useful as wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers or defoaming agents.

Surfactants can be classified as nonionic, anionic or cationic. Nonionic surfactants useful for the present compositions include, but are not limited to: alcohol alkoxylates such as alcohol alkoxylates based on natural and synthetic alcohols (which may be branched or linear) and prepared from the alcohols and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof; amine ethoxylates, alkanolamides and ethoxylated alkanolamides; alkoxylated triglycerides such as ethoxylated soybean, castor and rapeseed oils; alkylphenol alkoxylates such as octylphenol ethoxylates, nonylphenol ethoxylates, dinonyl phenol ethoxylates and dodecyl phenol ethoxylates (prepared from the phenols and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); block polymers prepared from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide and reverse block polymers where the terminal blocks are prepared from propylene oxide; ethoxylated fatty acids; ethoxylated fatty esters and oils; ethoxylated methyl esters; ethoxylated tristyrylphenol (including those prepared from ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); fatty acid esters, glycerol esters, lanolin-based derivatives, polyethoxylate esters such as polyethoxylated sorbitan fatty acid esters, polyethoxylated sorbitol fatty acid esters and polyethoxylated glycerol fatty acid esters; other sorbitan derivatives such as sorbitan esters; polymeric surfactants such as random copolymers, block copolymers, alkyd peg (polyethylene glycol) resins, graft or comb polymers and star polymers; polyethylene glycols (pegs); polyethylene glycol fatty acid esters; silicone-based surfactants; and sugar-derivatives such as sucrose esters, alkyl polyglycosides and alkyl polysaccharides.

Useful anionic surfactants include, but are not limited to: alkylaryl sulfonic acids and their salts; carboxylated alcohol or alkylphenol ethoxylates; diphenyl sulfonate derivatives; lignin and lignin derivatives such as lignosulfonates; maleic or succinic acids or their anhydrides; olefin sulfonates; phosphate esters such as phosphate esters of alcohol alkoxylates, phosphate esters of alkylphenol alkoxylates and phosphate esters of styryl phenol ethoxylates; protein-based surfactants; sarcosine derivatives; styryl phenol ether sulfate; sulfates and sulfonates of oils and fatty acids; sulfates and sulfonates of ethoxylated alkylphenols; sulfates of alcohols; sulfates of ethoxylated alcohols; sulfonates of amines and amides such as N,N-alkyltaurates; sulfonates of benzene, cumene, toluene, xylene, and dodecyl and tridecylbenzenes; sulfonates of condensed naphthalenes; sulfonates of naphthalene and alkyl naphthalene; sulfonates of fractionated petroleum; sulfosuccinamates; and sulfosuccinates and their derivatives such as dialkyl sulfosuccinate salts.

Useful cationic surfactants include, but are not limited to: amides and ethoxylated amides; amines such as N-alkyl propanediamines, tripropylenetriamines and dipropylenetetramines, and ethoxylated amines, ethoxylated diamines and propoxylated amines (prepared from the amines and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); amine salts such as amine acetates and diamine salts; quaternary ammonium salts such as quaternary salts, ethoxylated quaternary salts and diquaternary salts; and amine oxides such as alkyldimethylamine oxides and bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-alkylamine oxides.

Also useful for the present compositions are mixtures of nonionic and anionic surfactants or mixtures of nonionic and cationic surfactants. Nonionic, anionic and cationic surfactants and their recommended uses are disclosed in a variety of published references including McCutcheon 's Emulsifiers and Detergents, annual American and International Editions published by McCutcheon's Division, The Manufacturing Confectioner Publishing Co.; Sisely and Wood, Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents, Chemical Publ. Co., Inc., New York, 1964; and A. S. Davidson and B. Milwidsky, Synthetic Detergents, Seventh Edition, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1987.

Compositions of this invention may also contain formulation auxiliaries and additives, known to those skilled in the art as formulation aids (some of which may be considered to also function as solid diluents, liquid diluents or surfactants). Such formulation auxiliaries and additives may control: pH (buffers), foaming during processing (antifoams such polyorganosiloxanes), sedimentation of active ingredients (suspending agents), viscosity (thixotropic thickeners), in-container microbial growth (antimicrobials), product freezing (antifreezes), color (dyes/pigment dispersions), wash-off (film formers or stickers), evaporation (evaporation retardants), and other formulation attributes. Film formers include, for example, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinyl acetate copolymers, polyvinylpyrrolidone-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl alcohol copolymers and waxes. Examples of formulation auxiliaries and additives include those listed in McCutcheon 's Volume 2: Functional Materials, annual International and North American editions published by McCutcheon's Division, The Manufacturing Confectioner Publishing Co.; and PCT Publication WO 03/024222.

The compound of Formula 1 and any other active ingredients are typically incorporated into the present compositions by dissolving the active ingredient in a solvent or by grinding in a liquid or dry diluent. Solutions, including emulsifiable concentrates, can be prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. If the solvent of a liquid composition intended for use as an emulsifiable concentrate is water-immiscible, an emulsifier is typically added to emulsify the active-containing solvent upon dilution with water. Active ingredient slurries, with particle diameters of up to 2,000 μιη can be wet milled using media mills to obtain particles with average diameters below 3 μιη. Aqueous slurries can be made into finished suspension concentrates (see, for example, U.S. 3,060,084) or further processed by spray drying to form water-dispersible granules. Dry formulations usually require dry milling processes, which produce average particle diameters in the 2 to 10 um range. Dusts and powders can be prepared by blending and usually grinding (such as with a hammer mill or fluid-energy mill). Granules and pellets can be prepared by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See Browning, "Agglomeration", Chemical Engineering, December 4, 1967, pp 147-48, Perry 's Chemical Engineer's Handbook, 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1963, pages 8-57 and following, and WO 91/13546. Pellets can be prepared as described in U.S. 4,172,714. Water-dispersible and water-soluble granules can be prepared as taught in U.S. 4,144,050, U.S. 3,920,442 and DE 3,246,493. Tablets can be prepared as taught in U.S. 5,180,587, U.S. 5,232,701 and U.S. 5,208,030. Films can be prepared as taught in GB 2,095,558 and U.S. 3,299,566.

One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for controlling fungal pathogens, comprising diluting the fungicidal composition of the present invention (a compound of Formula 1 formulated with surfactants, solid diluents and liquid diluents or a formulated mixture of a compound of Formula 1 and at least one other fungicide) with water, and optionally adding an adjuvant to form a diluted composition, and contacting the fungal pathogen or its environment with an effective amount of said diluted composition.

Although a spray composition formed by diluting with water a sufficient concentration of the present fungicidal composition can provide sufficient efficacy for controlling fungal pathogens, separately formulated adjuvant products can also be added to spray tank mixtures. These additional adjuvants are commonly known as "spray adjuvants" or "tank- mix adjuvants", and include any substance mixed in a spray tank to improve the performance of a pesticide or alter the physical properties of the spray mixture. Adjuvants can be anionic or nonionic surfactants, emulsifying agents, petroleum-based crop oils, crop-derived seed oils, acidifiers, buffers, thickeners or defoaming agents. Adjuvants are used to enhancing efficacy (e.g., biological availability, adhesion, penetration, uniformity of coverage and durability of protection), or minimizing or eliminating spray application problems associated with incompatibility, foaming, drift, evaporation, volatilization and degradation. To obtain optimal performance, adjuvants are selected with regard to the properties of the active ingredient, formulation and target (e.g., crops, insect pests).

The amount of adjuvants added to spray mixtures is generally in the range of about 2.5% to 0.1 % by volume. The application rates of adjuvants added to spray mixtures are typically between about 1 to 5 L per hectare. Representative examples of spray adjuvants include: Adigor® (Syngenta) 47% methylated rapeseed oil in liquid hydrocarbons, Silwet® (Helena Chemical Company) polyalkyleneoxide modified heptamethyltrisiloxane and Assist® (BASF) 17% surfactant blend in 83% paraffin based mineral oil.

One method of seed treatment is by spraying or dusting the seed with a compound of the invention (i.e. as a formulated composition) before sowing the seeds. Compositions formulated for seed treatment generally comprise a film former or adhesive agent. Therefore typically a seed coating composition of the present invention comprises a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula 1 and a film former or adhesive agent. Seed can be coated by spraying a flowable suspension concentrate directly into a tumbling bed of seeds and then drying the seeds. Alternatively, other formulation types such as wetted powders, solutions, suspoemulsions, emulsifiable concentrates and emulsions in water can be sprayed on the seed. This process is particularly useful for applying film coatings on seeds. Various coating machines and processes are available to one skilled in the art. Suitable processes include those listed in P. Kosters et al, Seed Treatment: Progress and Prospects, 1994 BCPC Mongraph No. 57, and references listed therein.

Water-soluble and water-dispersible formulations are typically diluted with water to form aqueous compositions before application. Aqueous compositions for direct applications to the plant or portion thereof (e.g., spray tank compositions) typically contain at least about 1 ppm or more (e.g., from 1 ppm to 100 ppm) of the compound(s) of this invention.

Seed is normally treated at a rate of from about 0.001 g (more typically about 0.1 g) to about 10 g per kilogram of seed (i.e. from about 0.0001 to 1% by weight of the seed before treatment). A flowable suspension formulated for seed treatment typically comprises from about 0.5 to about 70% of the active ingredient, from about 0.5 to about 30% of a film- forming adhesive, from about 0.5 to about 20%> of a dispersing agent, from 0 to about 5% of a thickener, from 0 to about 5% of a pigment and/or dye, from 0 to about 2% of an antifoaming agent, from 0 to about 1% of a preservative, and from 0 to about 75% of a volatile liquid diluent.

The compounds of this invention are useful as plant disease control agents. The present invention therefore further comprises a method for controlling plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens comprising applying to the plant or portion thereof to be protected, or to the plant seed to be protected, an effective amount of a compound of the invention or a fungicidal composition containing said compound. The compounds and/or compositions of this invention provide control of diseases caused by a broad spectrum of fungal plant pathogens in the Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Zygomycota phyla, and the fungal-like Oomycata class. They are effective in controlling a broad spectrum of plant diseases, particularly foliar pathogens of ornamental, turf, vegetable, field, cereal, and fruit crops. These pathogens include but are not limited to those listed in Table I. For Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes, names for both the sexual/teleomorph/perfect stage as well as names for the asexual/anamorph/imperfect stage (in parentheses) are listed where known. Synonymous names for pathogens are indicated by an equal sign. For example, the sexual/teleomorph/perfect stage name Phaeosphaeria nodorum is followed by the corresponding asexual/anamorph/imperfect stage name Stagnospora nodorum and the synonymous older name Septoria nodorum.

The compounds of the invention are believed to provide protection from fungal plant pathogens by inhibiting Complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) fungal respiration by disrupting a key enzyme in the Krebs Cycle (TCA cycle) named succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). SDH is composed of four nuclear-encoded polypeptides, identified as SDHA, SDHB, SDHC and SDHD. Inhibiting respiration prevents the fungus from making ATP, and thus inhibits growth and reproduction. At the molecular level, carboxamides inhibit ubiquinone reduction by binding to the ubiquinone binding site (Q _p site) formed by subunits SDHB, SDHC and SDHD in the SDH enzyme. The Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) has identified chemical compounds having this fungicidal mode of action as "SDHIs" as an abbreviation for succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors and categorized them with FRAC Code 7.

A variety of mutations in subunits SDHB, SDHC and SDHD forming the ubiquinone binding site are now known to cause resistance to SDHIs. FRAC has published on their website a "List of fungal species with resistance reports towards SDHI fungicides and mutations in the succinate dehydrogenates gene (updated March 2012)" (http://frac.info/frac/work/List%20of%20SDHI%20resistant%20s pecies.pdf available as of 28 June 2012), which includes both mutants produced in the laboratory through artificial mutagenesis and naturally occurring mutants found in the field showing resistance to SDHIs. Scalliet et al, "Mutagenesis and Functional Studies with Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibitors in the Wheat Pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola", PLoS ONE, 2012, 7 (4), 1- 20 (published in Adobe Acrobat file format as journal.pone.0035429.pdf and available through http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F 10.1371 %>2Fjournal.pone.0035429 on 28 June 2012) describes additional mutants of Mycosphaerella graminicola. These publications disclose fungal pathogens having known resistant mutants include Alternaria alternata (SDHB: H277Y, H277R; SDHC: H134R; SDHD: D123E, H133R), Aspergillus oryzae (SDHB: H249Y, H249L, H249N; SDHC: T90I; SDHD: D124E), Botrytis cinearea (SDHB: P225L, P225T, P225F, H272Y, H272R, H272L, N230I; SDHD: H132R), Botrytis elliptica (SDHB: H272Y, H272R), Corynespora cassiicola (SDHB: H287Y, H287R; SDHC: S73P, SDHD: S89P), Didymella bryoniae (SDHB: H277R, H277Y), Mycosphaerella graminicola (SDHB: S218F, P220T, P220L, S221P, N225H, N225I, R265P, H267L, H267N, H267R, H267Q, H267Y, I269V, N271K; SDHC: T79I, S83G, A84V, A84I, L85P, N86K, R87C, V88D, H145R, H152R; SDHD: D129E, D129G, D129S, D129T, H139E), Podosphaera xanthii (SDHB: H[???]Y), Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (SDHD: H132R), Ustilago maydis (SDHB: H257L), Stemphylium botryose (SDHB: P225L, H272Y, H272R) and Ustilago maydis (SDHB: H257L), wherein the left letter identifies the amino acid in the prevalent wild-type enzyme subunit, the number specifies the amino acid location in the subunit, and the right letter identifies the amino acid in the mutant subunit (the amino acids are identified by standard single letter codes; see for example http://www.bio.davidson.edu/Biology/aatable.html, accessed 28 June 2012). Because the metabolism of other fungal pathogens, such as Septoria tritici, also involve succinate dehydrogenase, SDHI-resistant mutants are possible for them as well.

Remarkably, compounds of the present invention, retain sufficient activity against mutant fungal pathogens highly resistant to other SDHIs, so that the present compounds remain agronomically useful for protecting plants against the mutant as well as wild-type pathogens. The improved efficacy of the present compounds compared to other SDHI fungicides for controlling plant disease caused by the SDHI-resistant fungal pathogens can be determined by simple plant disease control testing, for example tests similar to Tests A-E disclosed herein, but using SDHI-resistant instead of wild-type fungal pathogens.

In addition to their fungicidal activity, the compositions or combinations also have activity against bacteria such as Erwinia amylovora, Xanthomonas campestris, Pseudomonas syringae, and other related species. By controlling harmful microorganisms, the compounds of the invention are useful for improving (i.e. increasing) the ratio of beneficial to harmful microorganisms in contact with crop plants or their propagules (e.g., seeds, corms, bulbs, tubers, cuttings) or in the agronomic environment of the crop plants or their propagules.

Compounds of the invention are useful in treating all plants, plant parts and seeds. Plant and seed varieties and cultivars can be obtained by conventional propagation and breeding methods or by genetic engineering methods. Genetically modified plants or seeds (transgenic plants or seeds) are those in which a heterologous gene (transgene) has been stably integrated into the plant's or seed's genome. A transgene that is defined by its particular location in the plant genome is called a transformation or transgenic event.

Genetically modified plant cultivars which can be treated according to the invention include those that are resistant against one or more biotic stresses (pests such as nematodes, insects, mites, fungi, etc.) or abiotic stresses (drought, cold temperature, soil salinity, etc.), or that contain other desirable characteristics. Plants can be genetically modified to exhibit traits of, for example, herbicide tolerance, insect-resistance, modified oil profiles or drought tolerance. Useful genetically modified plants containing single gene transformation events or combinations of transformation events are listed in Table II. Additional information for the genetic modifications listed in Table 2 can be obtained from publicly available databases maintained, for example, by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The following abbreviations, Tl through T37, are used in Table 2 for traits. A "-" means the entr is not avail ble.

Treatment of genetically modified plants and seeds with compounds of the invention may result in super-additive or synergistic effects. For example, reduction in application rates, broadening of the activity spectrum, increased tolerance to biotic/abiotic stresses or enhanced storage stability may be greater than expected from just simple additive effects of the application of compounds of the invention on genetically modified plants and seeds.

Compounds of this invention are useful in seed treatments for protecting seeds from plant diseases. In the context of the present disclosure and claims, treating a seed means contacting the seed with a biologically effective amount of a compound of this invention, which is typically formulated as a composition of the invention. This seed treatment protects the seed from soil-borne disease pathogens and generally can also protect roots and other plant parts in contact with the soil of the seedling developing from the germinating seed. The seed treatment may also provide protection of foliage by translocation of the compound of this invention or a second active ingredient within the developing plant. Seed treatments can be applied to all types of seeds, including those from which plants genetically transformed to express specialized traits will germinate. Representative examples include those expressing proteins toxic to invertebrate pests, such as Bacillus thuringiensis toxin or those expressing herbicide resistance such as glyphosate acetyltransferase, which provides resistance to glyphosate. Seed treatments with compounds of this invention can also increase vigor of plants growing from the seed.

Compounds of this invention and their compositions, both alone and in combination with other fungicides, nematicides and insecticides, are particularly useful in seed treatment for crops including, but not limited to, maize or corn, soybeans, cotton, cereal (e.g., wheat, oats, barley, rye and rice), potatoes, vegetables and oilseed rape.

Furthermore, the compounds of this invention are useful in treating postharvest diseases of fruits and vegetables caused by fungi and bacteria. These infections can occur before, during and after harvest. For example, infections can occur before harvest and then remain dormant until some point during ripening (e.g., host begins tissue changes in such a way that infection can progress); also infections can arise from surface wounds created by mechanical or insect injury. In this respect, the compounds of this invention can reduce losses (i.e. losses resulting from quantity and quality) due to postharvest diseases which may occur at any time from harvest to consumption. Treatment of postharvest diseases with compounds of the invention can increase the period of time during which perishable edible plant parts (e.g, fruits, seeds, foliage, stems, bulbs, tubers) can be stored refrigerated or un- refrigerated after harvest, and remain edible and free from noticeable or harmful degradation or contamination by fungi or other microorganisms. Treatment of edible plant parts before or after harvest with compounds of the invention can also decrease the formation of toxic metabolites of fungi or other microorganisms, for example, mycotoxins such as aflatoxins.

Plant disease control is ordinarily accomplished by applying an effective amount of a compound of this invention either pre- or post-infection, to the portion of the plant to be protected such as the roots, stems, foliage, fruits, seeds, tubers or bulbs, or to the media (soil or sand) in which the plants to be protected are growing. The compounds can also be applied to seeds to protect the seeds and seedlings developing from the seeds. The compounds can also be applied through irrigation water to treat plants. Control of postharvest pathogens which infect the produce before harvest is typically accomplished by field application of a compound of this invention, and in cases where infection occurs after harvest the compounds can be applied to the harvested crop as dips, sprays, fumigants, treated wraps and box liners.

Rates of application for these compounds (i.e. a fungicidally effective amount) can be influenced by factors such as the plant diseases to be controlled, the plant species to be protected, ambient moisture and temperature and should be determined under actual use conditions. One skilled in the art can easily determine through simple experimentation the fungicidally effective amount necessary for the desired level of plant disease control. Foliage can normally be protected when treated at a rate of from less than about 1 g/ha to about 5,000 g/ha of active ingredient. Seed and seedlings can normally be protected when seed is treated at a rate of from about 0.001 g (more typically about 0.1 g) to about 10 g per kilogram of seed. Compounds of this invention can also be mixed with one or more other biologically active compounds or agents including fungicides, insecticides, nematocides, bactericides, acaricides, herbicides, herbicide safeners, growth regulators such as insect molting inhibitors and rooting stimulants, chemosterilants, semiochemicals, repellents, attractants, pheromones, feeding stimulants, plant nutrients, other biologically active compounds or entomopathogenic bacteria, virus or fungi to form a multi-component pesticide giving an even broader spectrum of agricultural protection. Thus the present invention also pertains to a composition comprising a compound of Formula 1 (in a fungicidally effective amount) and at least one additional biologically active compound or agent (in a biologically effective amount) and can further comprise at least one of a surfactant, a solid diluent or a liquid diluent. The other biologically active compounds or agents can be formulated in compositions comprising at least one of a surfactant, solid or liquid diluent. For mixtures of the present invention, one or more other biologically active compounds or agents can be formulated together with a compound of Formula 1, to form a premix, or one or more other biologically active compounds or agents can be formulated separately from the compound of Formula 1, and the formulations combined together before application (e.g., in a spray tank) or, alternatively, applied in succession.

As mentioned in the Summary of the Invention, one aspect of the present invention is a fungicidal composition comprising (i.e. a mixture or combination of) a compound of Formula 1, an N-oxide, or a salt thereof (i.e. component a), and at least one other fungicide (i.e. component b). Of note is such a combination where the other fungicidal active ingredient has different site of action from the compound of Formula 1. In certain instances, a combination with at least one other fungicidal active ingredient having a similar spectrum of control but a different site of action will be particularly advantageous for resistance management. Thus, a composition of the present invention can further comprise a fungicidally effective amount of at least one additional fungicidal active ingredient having a similar spectrum of control but a different site of action.

One skilled in the art can easily determine through simple experimentation the biologically effective amounts of active ingredients necessary for the desired spectrum of biological activity. It will be evident that including these additional components may expand the spectrum of diseases controlled beyond the spectrum controlled by the compound of Formula 1 alone. In certain instances, combinations of a compound of this invention with other biologically active (particularly fungicidal) compounds or agents (i.e. active ingredients) can result in a greater-than-additive (i.e. synergistic) effect. Reducing the quantity of active ingredients released in the environment while ensuring effective pest control is always desirable. When synergism of fungicidal active ingredients occurs at application rates giving agronomically satisfactory levels of fungal control, such combinations can be advantageous for reducing crop production cost and decreasing environmental load.

Also in certain instances, combinations of a compound of the invention with other biologically active compounds or agents can result in a less-than-additive (i.e. safening) effect on organisms beneficial to the agronomic environment. For example, a compound of the invention may safen a herbicide on crop plants or protect a beneficial insect species (e.g., insect predators, pollinators such as bees) from an insecticide.

Fungicides of note for formulation with compounds of Formula 1 to provide mixtures useful in seed treatment include but are not limited to amisulbrom, azoxystrobin, boscalid, carbendazim, carboxin, cymoxanil, cyproconazole, difenoconazole, dimethomorph, fluazinam, fludioxonil, flufenoxystrobin, fluquinconazole, fluopicolide, fluoxastrobin, flutriafol, fluxapyroxad, ipconazole, iprodione, metalaxyl, mefenoxam, metconazole, myclobutanil, paclobutrazole, penflufen, picoxystrobin, prothioconazole, pyraclostrobin, sedaxane, silthiofam, tebuconazole, thiabendazole, thiophanate-methyl, thiram, trifloxystrobin and triticonazole.

Invertebrate pest control compounds or agents with which compounds of Formula 1 can be formulated to provide mixtures useful in seed treatment include but are not limited to abamectin, acetamiprid, acrinathrin, afidopyropen, amitraz, avermectin, azadirachtin, bensultap, bifenthrin, buprofezin, cadusafos, carbaryl, carbofuran, cartap, chlorantraniliprole, chlorfenapyr, chlorpyrifos, clothianidin, cyantraniliprole, cyclaniliprole, cyfluthrin, beta- cyfluthrin, cyhalothrin, gamma-cyhalothrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, alpha- cypermethrin, zeta-cypermethrin, cyromazine, deltamethrin, dieldrin, dinotefuran, diofenolan, emamectin, endosulfan, esfenvalerate, ethiprole, etofenprox, etoxazole, fenothiocarb, fenoxycarb, fenvalerate, fipronil, flonicamid, flubendiamide, fluensulfone, flufenoxuron, flufiprole, flupyradifurone, fluvalinate, formetanate, fosthiazate, heptafluthrin, hexaflumuron, hydramethylnon, imidacloprid, indoxacarb, lufenuron, meperfluthrin, metaflumizone, methiocarb, methomyl, methoprene, methoxyfenozide, momfluorothrin, nitenpyram, nithiazine, novaluron, oxamyl, pyflubumide, pymetrozine, pyrethrin, pyridaben, pyriminostrobin, pyridalyl, pyriproxyfen, ryanodine, spinetoram, spinosad, spirodiclofen, spiromesifen, spirotetramat, sulfoxaflor, tebufenozide, tetramethrin, tetramethylfluthrin, thiacloprid, thiamethoxam, thiodicarb, thiosultap-sodium, tralomethrin, triazamate, triflumuron, Bacillus thuringiensis delta-endotoxins, strains of Bacillus thuringiensis and strains of Nucleo polyhydrosis viruses. Compositions comprising compounds of Formula 1 useful for seed treatment can further comprise bacteria and fungi that have the ability to provide protection from the harmful effects of plant pathogenic fungi or bacteria and/or soil born animals such as nematodes. Bacteria exhibiting nematicidal properties may include but are not limited to Bacillus firmus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillius subtiliis and Pasteuria penetrans. A suitable Bacillus firmus strain is strain CNCM 1-1582 (GB-126) which is commercially available as BioNem™. A suitable Bacillus cereus strain is strain NCMM 1-1592. Both Bacillus strains are disclosed in US 6,406,690. Other suitable bacteria exhibiting nematicidal activity are B. amyloliquefaciens IN937a and B. subtilis strain GB03. Bacteria exhibiting fungicidal properties may include but are not limited to B. pumilus strain GB34. Fungal species exhibiting nematicidal properties may include but are not limited to Myrothecium verrucaria, Paecilomyces lilacinus and Purpureocillium lilacinum.

Seed treatments can also include one or more nematicidal agents of natural origin such as the elicitor protein called harpin which is isolated from certain bacterial plant pathogens such as Erwinia amylovora. An example is the Harpin-N-Tek seed treatment technology available as N-Hibit™ Gold CST.

Seed treatments can also include one or more species of legume-root nodulating bacteria such as the microsymbiotic nitrogen- fixing bacteria Bradyrhizobium japonicum. These inocculants can optionally include one or more lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs), which are nodulation (Nod) factors produced by rhizobia bacteria during the initiation of nodule formation on the roots of legumes. For example, the Optimize® brand seed treatment technology incorporates LCO Promoter Technology™ in combination with an inocculant.

Seed treatments can also include one or more isoflavones which can increase the level of root colonization by mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi improve plant growth by enhancing the root uptake of nutrients such as water, sulfates, nitrates, phosphates and metals. Examples of isoflavones include, but are not limited to, genistein, biochanin A, formononetin, daidzein, glycitein, hesperetin, naringenin and pratensein. Formononetin is available as an active ingredient in mycorrhizal inocculant products such as PHC Colonize® AG.

Seed treatments can also include one or more plant activators that induce systemic acquired resistance in plants following contact by a pathogen. An example of a plant activator which induces such protective mechanisms is acibenzolar-S-methyl.

The following Tests demonstrate the control efficacy of compounds of this invention on specific pathogens. The pathogen control protection afforded by the compounds is not limited, however, to these species. See Index Tables A-C for compound descriptions. The following abbreviations are used in the Index Tables which follow: Me is methyl, Et is ethyl, Ph is phenyl and OMe is methoxy. The abbreviation "Ex." stands for "Example" and is followed by a number indicating in which example the compound is prepared. In the following Index Tables each value of G refers to the G ring as described in the Summary of the Invention. When an (R ² ) _n substituent is present, it is noted immediately after the value of the G ring. In the absence of an (R ² ) _n substituent, this means that n is 0, and hydrogen atoms instead of R ² substituents are bonded to all available G ring carbon atoms. In the following Index Tables each value of A refers to the A rings as described in Exhibit A. Mass spectra are reported as the molecular weight of the highest isotopic abundance parent ion (M+l) formed by addition of H ⁺ (molecular weight of 1) to the molecule, or (M-l) formed by the loss of H ⁺ (molecular weight of 1) from the molecule, observed by using an liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer (MS) using either atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (AP ⁺ ) or electrospray ionization (ESI ⁺ ), where "amu" stands for atomic mass units.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES OF THE INVENTION

General protocol for preparing test suspensions for Tests A-E: the test compounds were first dissolved in acetone in an amount equal to 3 % of the final volume and then suspended at the desired concentration (in ppm) in acetone and purified water (50/50 mix by volume) containing 250 ppm of the surfactant Trem® 014 (polyhydric alcohol esters). The resulting test suspensions were then used in Tests A-E. Compounds were sprayed with either a 40 ppm or 10 ppm (*) test suspension to the point of run-off on the test plants which is the equivalent of a rate of 160 g ai/ha or 40 g ai/ha, respectively.

TEST A

The test suspension was sprayed to the point of run-off on tomato seedlings. The following day the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of Botrytis cinerea (the causal agent of gray mold on many crops) and incubated in a saturated atmosphere at 20 °C for 48 h, and moved to a growth chamber at 27 °C for 2 days, after which time visual disease ratings were made.

TEST B

The test suspension was sprayed to the point of run-off on wheat seedlings. The following day the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of Stagonospora nodorum (also known as Septoria nodorum; the causal agent of wheat glume blotch) and incubated in a saturated atmosphere at 20 °C for 48 h, and then moved to a growth chamber at 20 °C for 6 days, after which time visual disease ratings were made.

TEST C

The test suspension was sprayed to the point of run-off on wheat seedlings. The following day the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of Septoria tritici (the causal agent of wheat leaf blotch) and incubated in a saturated atmosphere at 24 °C for 48 h, and then moved to a growth chamber at 20 °C for 21 days, after which time visual disease ratings were made.

TEST D

The test suspension was sprayed to the point of run-off on wheat seedlings. The following day the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici; (the causal agent of wheat leaf rust) and incubated in a saturated atmosphere at 20 °C for 24 h, and then moved to a growth chamber at 20 °C for 6 days, after which time visual disease ratings were made. TEST E

The test suspension was sprayed to the point of run-off on wheat seedlings. The following day the seedlings were inoculated with a spore dust of Erysiphe graminis f. sp. tritici, (the causal agent of wheat powdery mildew) and incubated in a growth chamber at 20 °C for 8 days, after which time visual disease ratings were made.

Results for Tests A-E are given in Table A. In the Table, a rating of 100 indicates 100% disease control and a rating of 0 indicates no disease control (relative to the controls). A dash (-) indicates no test results.
