Detailed Description of the Invention

The compounds of Formula I exhibit geometrical and optical isomerism and may be prepared in geometrically or optically pure or mixed forms. The various individual optical and geometrical forms and various combinations thereof of the materials of the invention usually have some difference in herbicidal properties. Generally preferred for herbicidal efficacy are 1) those geometrical isomers of Formula I wherein the OW group resides on the same face of the carbocyclic ring as the O-Y bridge and 2) those optical isomers with the absolute configuration depicted in Formula la. The present invention contemplates all of the herbicidally active forms

resulting from synthesis and from deliberately created mixtures.

The compounds of Formula la may be synthesized according to the well known Williamson Ether Synthesis (see N. Baggett in Comprehensive Organic Chemistry, D. Barton and W. D. Ollis eds. , _____________, pp. 819-832, Pergamon Press, N.Y. (1979)) as shown in Scheme I by allowing bicyclic alcohols of Formula IV to react with appropriate alkylating agents represented as W-L where W represents those organic radicals defined previously and LG represents leaving group moieties such as chloride, bromide, iodide, and sulfonate esters. This is outlined in Scheme I.

SUBSTITUTESHEET

Scheme I

IV la

The bicyclic alcohols of Formula IV are known in the art (U.S. 4,670,041; U.S. 4,529,806; U.S. 4,486,219) and the alkylating agents W-LG are prepared in the conventional manners known to those skilled in the art from the alcohols W-OH.

The alcohols, WOH, are generally known in the art and are most conveniently prepared through metal hydride (e.g., sodium borohydride) reduction of the corresponding bicyclic ketones which can be derived by Friedel-Crafts type cyclization of derivatives of phenylalkylcarboxylic acid, phenoxyalkylcarboxylic acids, phenylthioalkylcarboxylic acids, benzyloxy- alkylcarboxylic acids, and benzylthioalkylcarboxylic acids. Details may be found in a) T. Laird in Comprehensive Organic Chemistry. D. Barton and W. D. Ollis, eds., Vol. 1. pp. 1165-1168, Pergamon Press, New York (1979); b) M. H. Palmer and N. M. Scollick, J.

Alternatively, the compounds of Formula la may be prepared by the coupling procedure described in Scheme II, which is used in cases where the standard Williamson ether synthesis proves problematic. This procedure uses a Lewis acidic metal oxide wherein the metal can remove the halide ion by forming an insoluble precipitate. In Example 1, silver (I) oxide is used and the silver halide is the co-product. Alternative metal oxides that may be used are HgO, CaO, MgO. N,N-Dimethylformamide and ethereal solvents, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, or 1,2-dimethoxyethane are the preferred solvents. Other solvents likely to provide good yields include dipolar aprotic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide, acetone and N,N'-dimethyl- propyleneurea. Scheme II

SUBSTITUTESHEET

The synthetic procedure shown in Scheme III may be used to prepare compounds of Formula la wherein Z_ is a heteroatom (such as N, O, S) . The coupling substrate is a styrene with an appropriate substituted heteroatom in protected form (such as with a trialkylsilyl, acetate ester, benzoate ester, etc.). A mild halogenating agent such as

N-halosuccinimide, N-haloacetamide, dioxane dihalide, or pyridinium hydrohalide perhalide may be used to form a cyclic halonium ion under optional acid catalysis. The ion is intercepted at the benzylic center to form the benzylic ether. The heteroatom is deprotected and allowed to close in. situ to form the desired heterocyclic ring. The acid catalyst for the initial coupling can be used in either concentrated or diluted form. Scheme III

Formulations

Useful formulations of- the compounds of Formula I can be prepared in conventional ways. They include dusts, granules, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, e ulsifiable concentrates and the like. Many of these may be applied directly. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of from a few liters to several hundred liters per hectare. High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, contain about 0.1% to 99% by weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of

(a) about 0.1% to 20% surfactant(s) and (b) about 1% to 99.9% solid or liquid diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:

Table 9

Weight Percent* Active Ingredient Diluent(s) Surfactant(s)

Wettable Powders 5-60 39-94 1-10

Emulsifiable 3-80 20-95 0-20

Concentrates

Dusts 1-25 70-99 0-5

Granules and Pellets 0.1-50 50-99.9 0-15

* Active ingredient plus at least one of a Surfactant or a Diluent equals 100 weight percent.

Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are some¬ times desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.

Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, New Jersey, but other solids, either mined or manufac¬ tured, may be used. The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, "Solvents Guide," 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950. Solubility under 0.1% is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at 0°C. "McCutcheon's Detergents and

Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey, as well as Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publishing Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foaming, caking, corrosion, micro¬ biological growth, etc.

The methods of making such compositions are well known. Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example. Littler, U.S. Patent 3,060,084). Granules and pellets may be made by spraying the active material upon preformed granular

carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See J. E. Browning, "Agglomeration", Chemical Engineering, December 4, 1967, pp. 147ff. and "Perry's Chemical

Engineer's Handbook", 5th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1973, pp. 8-57ff.

For further information regarding the art of formulation, see for example: H. M. Loux, U.S. Patent 3,235,361, February 15, 1966, Col. 6, line 16 through Col. 7, line 19 and Examples 10 through 41;

R. W. Luckenbaugh, U.S. Patent 3,309,192, March 14, 1967, Col. 5, line 43 through Col. 7, line 62 and Examples 8, 12, 15, 39, 41, 52, 53, 58, 132, 138-140, 162-164, 166, 167 and 169-182;

H. Gysin and E. Knusli, U.S. Patent 2,891,855, June 23, 1959, Col. 3, line 66 through Col. 5, line 17 and Examples 1-4; G. C. Klingman, "Weed Control as a Science",

7-oxabicyclo((2.2.1))heptane' 2-(2,3-dihydro- lH-inden-l-yloxy)-l-methyl-4-(l-methylethyl) 50% sodium alkylnaphthalenesulfonate 2% low viscosity methyl cellulose 2% diatomaceous earth 46%

The active ingredient is first sprayed onto the diatomaceous earth then the ingredients are blended, coarsely hammer-milled and then air-milled to produce particles essentially all below 10 microns in diameter. The product is reblended before packaging.

Example C Granule

Wettable Powder of Example 4 5% attapulgite granules 95%

(U.S.S. 20-40 mesh; 0.84-0.42 mm) A slurry of wettable powder containing 25% solids is sprayed on the surface of attapulgite granules in a double-cone blender. The granules are dried and packaged.

Example D Emulsifiable Concentrate

7-oxabicyclo((2.2.1))heptane' 2-(2,3-dihydro- lH-inden-l-yloxy)-l-methyl-4-(l-methylethyl) 40% Atlox 3403F 3%

Atlox 3404F 3% xylene 54% The active ingredient and Atlox emulsifiers are dissolved in the solvent, filtered and packaged. Atlox 3403F and 3404F are blends of anionic and ionic emulsifiers from ICI Americas, Inc.

Example E

Low Strength Granule

7-oxabicyclo((2.2.1))heptane' 2-(2,3-dihydro- lH-inden-1-yloxy)-l-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl) 5% attapulgite granules 95% (U.S.S. 20-40 mesh)

The active ingredient is dissolved in a solvent and the solution is sprayed upon dedusted granules in a double-cone blender. After spraying of the solution has been completed, the material is warmed to evaporate the solvent. The material is allowed to cool and then packaged.

Example F Granule 7-oxabicyclo((2.2.1))heptane' 2-(2,3-dihydro- lH-inden-l-yloxy)-l-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl) 50% wetting agent 1% crude ligninsulfonate salt (containing 10% 5-20% of the natural sugars) attapulgite clay 39%

The ingredients are blended and milled to pass through a 100 mesh screen. This material is then added to a fluid bed granulator, the air flow is adjusted to gently fluidize the material, and a fine spray of water is sprayed onto the fluidized material. The fluidiza- tion and spraying are continued until granules of the

desired size range are made. The spraying is stopped, but fluidization is continued, optionally with heat, until the water content is reduced to the desired level, generally less than 1%. The material is then discharged, screened to the desired size range, generally 14-100 mesh (1410-149 microns), and packaged for use.

Utility

Test results indicate that compounds of this invention are highly active preemergent and/or postemergent herbicides or plant growth regulants. These compounds are useful for postemergence grass control in agronomic crops and are particularly useful for preemergence broad-spectrum grass and selected small-seeded broadleaf weed control in agronomic crops. Agronomic crops such as barley {Hordeum vulgare) , corn {Zea mays) , cotton {Gossypium hirsutum) , rape {Brassica napus) , rice {Oryza satiυa) , sorghum {Sorghum bicolor) , soybean {Glycine max) , sugar beet {Beta υulgaris), and wheat {Triticum aestivum) show little or no injury when treated with application rates necessary for weed control for many of the compounds in this invention. Many of the compounds of this invention are also particularly suitable for barnyardgrass {Echinochloa crus-galli) control in transplanted rice. Troublesome weed species that are suppressed or controlled are grass weeds such as barnyardgrass {Echinochloa crus-galli) , blackgrass {Alopecurus myosuroides) , cheatgrass {Bromus secalinus) , crabgrass {Digitaria spp.), downy brome {Bromus tectorum) , foxtail {Sctaria spp.), johnsongrass {Sorghum halepense) , and wild oat {Avena fatua) ; broadleaf weeds such as lambsquarters

{Chenopodium album) and velvetleaf {Abutilon iheophrasti) ; and sedge {Cyperus spp.). Test results also indicate that compounds of this invention have utility for broad-spectrum pre- and/or postemergence weed control in other areas where control of vegetation is desired, such as around storage tanks, parking lots, drive-in theaters, billboards, highways, and railroad structures and in fallow areas of crop production such as in wheat, barley, and in plantation crops such as palm, pineapple, plantin, banana, citrus, rubber, sugarcane, etc. Rates of application for compounds of this invention are determined by a number of factors. These factors include: formulation selected, method of application, amount of vegetation present, growing conditions, etc. In general terms, the subject compounds should be applied at rates from 0.01 to 20 kg/ha with a preferred rate range of from 0.05 to 1 kg/ha. One skilled in the art can easily determine rates needed for the desired level of weed control.

Compounds of this invention may be used alone or in combination with other commercial herbicides, insecticides, or fungicides. The following list exemplifies some of the herbicides suitable for use in mixtures. A combination of a compound from this invention with one or more of the following herbicides may be particularly useful for weed control.

At the same time, these crop and weed species were also treated with postemergence applications of test chemicals. Plants ranged in height from two to eighteen cm (two to three leaf stage) for postemergence treatments. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for approximately sixteen days, after which all species were compared to controls and visually evaluated. Plant response ratings, summarized in Table A, are based on a scale of 0 to 10 where 0 is no effect and 10 is complete control. A dash (-) response means no test result. The accompanying descriptive symbols have the following meanings:

B = burn injury;

C - chlorosis/necrosis;

E = inhibition of emergence;

G = growth retardation;

H = formative effect; P = terminal bud injury; and

S - albinism.

TEST C

Plastic pots were partially filled with silt loam soil. The soil was then saturated with water. Indica and Japonica rice {Oryza satiυa) seedlings at the 2.0 to 2.5 leaf stage, seeds of barnyardgrass {Echinochloa crus-galli) , bulrush {Scirpus mucronatus) , and umbrella sedge {Cyperus difformis) , and sprouted tubers of arrowhead {Sagittaria spp.) and waterchestnut {Eleocharis spp.) were planted into this soil. Several days after planting, water levels were raised to 3 cm above the soil surface and maintained at this level throughout the test. Chemical treatments were formulated in a non-phytotoxic solvent and applied directly to the paddy water. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for approximately 21 days, after which all species were compared to controls and visually evaluated. Plant response ratings, summarized in Table C, are based on a scale of 0 to 100 where 0 is no effect and 100 is complete control. A dash (-) response means no test result.

Seeds of spring and winter barley {Hordeum vulgare) , black nightshade {Solanum nigrum) , blackgrass {Alopecurus myosuroides) , bluegrass {Poa annua) , catchweed bedstraw {Galium aparine), cheatgrass {Bromus secalinus) , downy brome {Bromus tectorum) , field pennycress {Thlaspi ' arvense) , field violet {Viola arυens is) , green foxtail {Setaria viridis) , Italian ryegrass {Lolium multiflorum) , ivyleaf speedwell {Veronica hederaefolia) , jointed goatgrass {Aegilops cylindrica) , kochia {Kochia scoparia) , lambsquarters {Chenopodium album) , Persian speedwell {Veronica persica) , rape {Brassica napus) , Russian thistle {Salsola kali) , scentless chamomile {Matricaria inodora) , sugar beet {Beta vulgaris) , spring and winter wheat {Triticum aestivum) , wild buckwheat {Polygonum convolvulus) , and wild oat {Avena fatua) were planted and treated preemergence with test chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. Postemergence applications of test chemicals were also applied to these same crop and weed species. Plants ranged in height from two to twenty-four cm (two to three leaf stage) for postemergence treatments. Blackgrass and wild oat were treated postemergence at two growth stages — the first stage being at two to three leaves and the second stage being approximately at four leaves or in the initial stages of tillering. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for approximately 21 days, after which all species were compared to controls and visually evaluated. Rates of application of each compound are listed in Table D. Plant response ratings, summarized in Table D, are based on a scale of 0 to 100 where 0 is no effect and 100 is complete control.
