It is an object of the present invention, with a view to reducing the application rates and
broadening the activity spectrum of the known compounds, to provide mixtures which,
at a reduced total amount of active compounds applied, have improved activity against
harmful fungi, in particular for certain indications.
We have found that this object is achieved by the mixtures defined at the outset.
Moreover, we have found that simultaneous, that is joint or separate, application of the
compounds I and an active compound II or successive application of the compounds I
and an active compound II allows better control of harmful fungi than is possible with
the individual compounds (synergistic mixtures). The compounds I can be used as a
synergist for a large number of different active compounds. The simultaneous, that is
joint or separate, application of the compound I with an active compound II increases
the fungicidal activity in a superadditive manner.
The mixtures of the compounds I and an active compound II or the simultaneous, that
is joint or separate, use of the compounds I and an active compound II are/is
distinguished by excellent activity against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi,
in particular from the classes of the Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Oomycetes and
Basidiomycetes. Some of them are systemically active and can be used in crop
protection as foliar fungicides, as fungicides for seed dressing and as soil fungicides.
They are particularly important in the control of a multitude of fungi on various crop
plants, such as bananas, cotton, vegetables (for example cucumbers, beans and
cucurbits), barley, grass, oats, coffee, potatoes, corn, fruit, rice, rye, soybeans,
tomatoes, grape vines, wheat, ornamental plants, sugar cane and a multiplicity of

The active compounds mentioned above can also be employed in the form of their
agriculturally compatible salts. These are usually the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal
salts, such as sodium, potassium or calcium salts.
When preparing the mixtures, preference is given to using the pure active compounds
which, if required, may be mixed with further active compounds against harmful fungi or
other pests, such as insects, arachnids or nematodes, or else herbicidal or growth-
regulating active compounds or fertilizers as further active components.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, mixtures of an azolopyrimidinylamine and
an active compound II are used. Under certain conditions, it may be advantageous to
combine an azolopyrimidinylamine with two or more active compounds II. In addition,
mixtures of two or more compounds I with one or more active compounds II may also
be suitable.
Suitable further active components in the above sense are in particular the active
compounds II, mentioned at the outset, and in particular the preferred active
compounds mentioned above. In the case of ternary mixtures, preferred third active
components are strobilurins, in particular pyraclostrobin, carboxamides, in particular
boscalid, and also organophosphorus compounds, in particular phosphorous acid and
its salts.
The compounds I and active compounds II are usually employed in a weight ratio of

PF 56951
27
from 100:1 to 1:100, preferably from 50:1 to 1:50, preferably from 20:1 to 1:20, in
particular from 10:1 to 1:10.
The further active components are, if desired, added in a ratio of from 50:1 to 1:50,
preferably from 20:1 to 1:20, to the compound I.
Depending on the type of compound and the desired effect, the application rates of the
mixtures according to the invention are from 5 g/ha to 2000 g/ha, preferably from 50 to
900 g/ha, in particular from 50 to 750 g/ha.
Correspondingly, the application rates for compounds I are generally from 1 to 1000
g/ha, preferably from 10 to 900 g/ha, in particular from 20 to 750 g/ha.
Depending on the type of active compound II, the application rates for active
compounds II are generally from 1 to 2000 g/ha, preferably from 10 to 900 g/ha, in
particular from 40 to 500 g/ha.
In the treatment of seed, for example by dusting, coating or soaking seeds, application
rates of mixture are generally from 1 to 1000 g/100 kg of seed, preferably from 1 to 750
g/100 kg, in particular from 5 to 500 g/100 kg.
The method for controlling harmful fungi is carried out by the separate or joint
application of the compounds I and active compounds II or the mixtures of compounds
I and active compounds II by spraying or dusting the seeds, the plants or the soils
before or after sowing of the plants or before or after emergence of the plants.
The mixtures according to the invention, or the compounds I and active compounds II
can be converted into the customary formulations, for example solutions, emulsions,
suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes and granules. The use form depends on the
particular intended purpose; in each case, it should ensure a fine and even distribution
of the compound according to the invention.

agents and, if appropriate, colorants.
In general, the formulations comprise from 0.01 to 95% by weight, preferably from 0.1

PF 56951
29
to 90% by weight, of the active compounds. The active compounds are employed in a
purity of from 90% to 100%, preferably 95% to 100%.
For the treatment of seed, the formulations in question give, after two-to-tenfold
dilution, active compound concentrations of from 0.01 to 60% by weight, preferably
from 0.1 to 40% by weight, in the ready-to-use preparations.
The following are examples of formulations according to the invention:
1. Products for dilution with water
A Water-soluble concentrates (SL, LS)
10 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are dissolved in 90 parts by
weight of water or in a water-soluble solvent. As an alternative, wetters or other
auxiliaries are added. The active compound dissolves upon dilution with water. In this
way, a formulation having a content of 10% by weight of active compound is obtained.
B Dispersible concentrates (DC)
20 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are dissolved in 70 parts by
weight of cyclohexanone with addition of 10 parts by weight of a dispersant, for
example polyvinylpyrrolidone. Dilution with water gives a dispersion. The active
compound content is 20% by weight.
C Emulsifiable concentrates (EC)
15 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are dissolved in 75 parts by
weight of xylene with addition of calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and castor oil
ethoxylate (in each case 5 parts by weight). Dilution with water gives an emulsion. The
formulation has an active compound content of 15% by weight.

comminuted with addition of 10 parts by weight of dispersants and wetters and 70 parts
by weight of water or an organic solvent to give a fine active compound suspension.
Dilution with water gives a stable suspension of the active compound. The active
compound content in the formulation is 20% by weight.

PF 56951
30
F Water-dispersible granules and water-soluble granules (WG, SG)
50 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are ground finely with
addition of 50 parts by weight of dispersants and wetters and prepared as water-
dispersible or water-soluble granules by means of technical appliances (for example
extrusion, spray tower, fluidized bed). Dilution with water gives a stable dispersion or
solution of the active compound. The formulation has an active compound content of
50% by weight.
G Water-dispersible powders and water-soluble powders (WP, SP, SS, WS)
75 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are ground in a rotor-stator
mill with addition of 25 parts by weight of dispersants, wetters and silica gel. Dilution
with water gives a stable dispersion or solution of the active compound. The active
compound content of the formulation is 75% by weight.
H Gel formulations
In a ball mill, 20 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention, 10 parts by
weight of dispersant, 1 part by weight of gelling agent and 70 parts by weight of water
or an organic solvent are ground to give a fine suspension. On dilution with water, a
stable suspension having an active compound content of 20% by weight is obtained.
2. Products to be applied undiluted
I Dustable powders (DP, DS)
5 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are ground finely and mixed
intimately with 95 parts by weight of finely divided kaolin. This gives a dustable product
having an active compound content of 5% by weight.
J Granules (GR, FG, GG, MG)
0.5 part by weight of a mixture according to the invention is ground finely and
associated with 99.5 parts by weight of carriers. Current methods are extrusion, spray-
drying or the fluidized bed. This gives granules to be applied undiluted having an active
compound content of 0.5% by weight.
K ULV solutions (UL)
10 parts by weight of a mixture according to the invention are dissolved in 90 parts by
weight of an organic solvent, for example xylene. This gives a product to be applied
undiluted having an active compound content of 10% by weight.
For seed treatment, use is usually made of water-soluble concentrates (LS),
suspensions (FS), dustable powders (DS), water-dispersible and water-soluble
powders (WS, SS), emulsions (ES), emulsifiable concentrates (EC) and gel

PF 56951
31
formulations (GF). These formulations can be applied to the seed in undiluted form or,
preferably, diluted. Application can be carried out prior to sowing.
Preference is given to using FS formulations for seed treatment. Usually, such
formulations comprise from 1 to 800 g of active compound/I, from 1 to 200 g of
surfactants/I, from 0 to 200 g of antifreeze agents/I, from 0 to 400 g of binder/I, from 0
to 200 g of colorants/I and solvents, preferably water.
Analogous formulations A to K of the compounds I or an active compound II comprise
the respective amount of the individual active compounds. They are usually mixed
directly prior to application during dilution to the ready-to-use active compound
concentration (tank mix).
The active compound concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations may be varied
within relatively wide ranges. In general, they are between 0.0001 and 10%, preferably
between 0.01 and 1%.
The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use
forms prepared therefrom, for example in the form of directly sprayable solutions,
powders, suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dustable
products, materials for spreading, or granules, by means of spraying, atomizing,
dusting, spreading or pouring. The use forms depend entirely on the intended
purposes; they are intended to ensure in each case the finest possible distribution of
the active compounds according to the invention.
Aqueous use forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable
powders (wettable powders, oil dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions,
pastes or oil dispersions, the substances, as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can
be homogenized in water by means of a wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier.
However, it is also possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance,
wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such
concentrates are suitable for dilution with water.
The active compounds may also be used successfully in the ultra-low-volume process
(ULV), it being possible to apply formulations comprising over 95% by weight of active
compound, or even to apply the active compound without additives.
Oils of various types, wetters, adjuvants, herbicides, fungicides, other pesticides, or
bactericides may be added to the active compounds, even, if appropriate, not until
immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents may be admixed with the
compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of from 1:100 to 100:1,
preferably from 1:10 to 10:1.

PF 56951
32
Suitable adjuvants in this sense are in particular: organically modified polysiloxanes,
for example Break Thru S 240®; alcohol alkoxylates, for example Atplus 245®, Atplus
MBA 1303®, Plurafac LF 300® and Lutensol ON 30®; EO/PO block polymers, for
example Pluronic RPE 2035® and Genapol B®; alcohol ethoxylates, for example
Lutensol XP 80®; and sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate, for example Leophen RA®.
The compounds I and II or the mixtures or the corresponding formulations are applied
by treating the harmful fungi, the plants, seeds, soils, areas, materials or spaces to be
kept free from them with a fungicidally effective amount of the mixture or, in the case of
separate application, of the compounds I and II. Application can be carried out before
or after infection by the harmful fungi.
Use examples
The fungicidal effect of the compounds and the mixtures was demonstrated by the
following tests:
The active compounds amisulbrom, Cu hydroxide, famoxadone, phosphorous acid and
zoxamide were used as commercial formulations and diluted with water to the stated
concentrations.
The active compounds were separately or jointly prepared as a stock solution
comprising 25 mg of active compound which was made up to 10 ml using a mixture of
acetone and/or DMSO and the emulsifier Uniperol® EL (wetting agent having
emulsifying and dispersing action based on ethoxylated alkylphenols) in a volume ratio
of solvent/emulsifier of 99 to 1. The mixture was then made up with water to 100 ml.
This stock solution was diluted with the solvent/emulsifier/water mixture described to
the concentration of active compound stated below.
Use example 1 - Persistency against late blight on tomatoes caused by Phytophthora
infestans
Leaves of potted plants of the cultivar "Great beef tomato St. Pierre" were sprayed to
runoff point with an aqueous suspension having the concentration of active compound
stated below. After 5 days, the leaves were inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension
of Phytophthora infestans. The plants were then placed in a water vapor-saturated
chamber at temperatures between 18 and 20°C. After 6 days, the late blight on the
untreated but infected control plants had developed to such an extent that the infection
could be determined visually in %.
The visually determined percentages of infected leaf areas were converted into

PF 56951
33
efficacies in % of the untreated control:
The efficacy (E) is calculated as follows using Abbot's formula:
E = (1-α/β).100
α corresponds to the fungicidal infection of the treated plants in % and
β corresponds to the fungicidal infection of the untreated (control) plants in %
An efficacy of 0 means that the infection level of the treated plants corresponds to that
of the untreated control plants; an efficacy of 100 means that the treated plants were
not infected.
The expected efficacies of active compound combinations were determined using
Colby's formula (Colby, S.R. "Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of
herbicide combinations", Weeds, 15, 20-22, 1967) and compared with the observed
efficacies.

E = x + y-x. y/100
