Description
The invention relates to new 1-heteroaryl-4-arylpyrazole derivatives, a process for their preparation and their use as microbicides.
It is already known that certain heterocyclic compounds, such as, for example, N-trichloromethylthio-phthalimide and -tetrahydrophthalimide, have good fungicidal actions (compare U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,553,770, 2,553,771 and 2,553,776). Organic sulphur compounds, such as, for example, zinc ethylene-1,2-bis-(dithiocarbamate), furthermore are also compounds which have a good fungicidal action (compare, for example, R. Wegler "Chemie der Pflanzenschutz- und Schadlingsbekampfungsmittel" ("Chemistry of Plant Protection Agents and Agents for Combating Pests"), Springer Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York 1970, Volume 2, page 65 et seq.). The action of these compounds cannot always be completely satisfactory in some fields of use under certain conditions, for example when low amounts and concentrations are applied.
1,4-Diaryl-pyrazolin-5-ones, which are used as herbicides, are furthermore known. Nothing is known of a fungicidal activity (compare DE-OS (German Published Specification) No. 2,651,008).
Furthermore, 1-heteroaryl-4-aryl-pyrazolin-5-ones, such as, for example, 1-pyrimid-2-yl-4-phenyl-pyrazolin-5-one, and their microbicidal properties are known from U.S. patent application Ser. No. 733,450, filed May 10, 1985, now pending.

R.sup.4 represents hydrogen or saturated or unsaturated optionally substituted alkyl and
R.sup.5 represents hydrogen, saturated or unsaturated, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted cycloalkyl, optionally substituted aryl or an optionally substituted heterocyclic radical, or
R.sup.4 and R.sup.5, together with the nitrogen atom on which they are located, form a heterocyclic ring which optionally contains further hetero atoms and can optionally be mono- or polysubstituted by identical or different substituents.
It has furthermore been found that the new 1-heteroaryl-4-aryl pyrozole derivatives of the formulae (I) and (LA) ##STR5## in which
R represents hydrogen or alkyl,
R.sup.1 represents halogen, hydroxyl, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, a radical --S(O).sub.p -alkyl which is optionally substituted in the alkyl part, nitro or optionally substituted amino, or represents a fused-on carbocyclic or heterocyclic radical,

R.sup.4 and R.sup.5, together with the nitrogen atom on which they are located, form a heterocyclic ring which optionally contains further hetero atoms and can optionally be mono- or polysubstituted by identical or different substituents,
are obtained by a process in which 1-heteroaryl-4-aryl-pyrazolin-5-ones of the formula (II) or (IIA) ##STR7## in which
R, R.sup.1, X and n have the abovementioned meanings, are reacted with a reactive derivative of an acid of the formula (III)
in which
R.sup.2 and Y have the abovementioned meanings and
Z represents halogen, an acyloxy radical, a sulphonyloxy radical or an azole radical if appropriate in the presence of an acid-binding agent.
Finally, it has been found that the 1-heteroaryl-4-aryl-pyrazole derivatives of the formulae (I) and (IA) can be employed for combating microbial parasites.
Surprisingly, the compounds of the formulae (I) and (IA) according to the invention exhibit a more powerful antimicrobial activity than the active compounds already known from the prior art, such as, for example, N-trichloromethylthio-phthalimide or -tetrahydrophthalimide, zinc ethylene-1,2-bis-(dithiocarbamate) and/or N,N-dimethyl-N'-phenyl-N'-dichlorofluoro-methylthio-sulphamide.

The acid derivatives of the formula (III) also to be used as starting substances for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention are known. They are the reactive derivatives, customary for acylation reactions, of carboxylic acids, carbonic acid esters, carbamic acids, sulphonic acids and sulphamic acids, in particular carboxylic acid halides, carboxylic acid anhydrides, mixed anhydrides of carboxylic acids and carbonic acid esters, carboxylic acid azolides, ketenes, carbonic acid ester-halides, dicarbonic acid esters, carbamic acid halides, isocyanates, sulphonic acid halides, sulphonic acid anhydrides and the like.
The reaction of the 1-pyri(mi)dyl-4-aryl-pyrazolin-5-ones of the formula (II) or (IIA) with the reactive derivatives of carboxylic acids, carbonic acid esters, carbamic acids, sulphonic acids, or sulphamic acids of the formula (III) is carried out under the conditions known in principle for acylation reactions.
If carboxylic acid anhydrides, mixed anhydrides of carboxylic acids and carbonic acid esters, dicarbonic acid dialkyl esters or sulphonic acid anhydrides are used as the acylating component, this acylation can be carried out without further auxiliaries, by allowing the reaction components to act on one another, preferably in an equimolar ratio, in undiluted form or in diluents. However, it may also be advantageous to employ the acylating agent in an excess of up to a further mole or, as in the case of carboxylic acid anhydrides, to use this as the solvent in a larger excess.
The reactions are advantageously carried out in diluents, it being possible to use all the solvents which are inert towards the reaction partners. These include hydrocarbons, such as benzine or toluene, halogenohydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride, ketones, such as acetone or methyl isopropyl ketone, ethers, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, and furthermore dimethylsulphoxide, tetrahydrothiophene dioxide and dimethylformamide.
The reaction temperatures can be varied within a substantial range. The reaction is in general carried out between -20.degree. C. and 150.degree. C., preferably between room temperature and the boiling point of the solvent used.
If carboxylic acid halides, carbonic acid ester-halides, carbamic acid halides or sulphonic acid halides are employed as the acylating component, it is advantageous to add an auxiliary base to bond the hydrogen halides liberated during the reaction. Suitable auxiliary bases are: alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydroxides and carbonates and tertiary amines, such as, for example, triethylamine, pyridine and N,N-dimethyl-aniline.
The acylating agent and the acid-binding base are preferably employed in each case in equimolar amounts in relation to the reaction component of the formula (II) or (IIA), but it may be advantageous to employ either only the auxiliary base or the acylating component and the auxiliary base in an excess of up to a further mole.
An alternative in the reaction procedure comprises initially converting the pyrazolinone of the formula (II) or (IIA) into a metal salt in an inert solvent and then reacting this salt with the acylating agent. This can be effected, for example, with strong bases, such as sodium hydride, sodium or potassium amide or potassium tert.-butylate.
The reactions are preferably carried out in inert solvents, those already mentioned above being suitable. The reaction temperatures are -20.degree. C. to 150.degree. C., preferably 0.degree. to 100.degree. C.
If isocyanates are employed as the acylating component, the reaction is as a rule carried out with an equimolar amount of the reaction components in the abovementioned solvents. The reaction temperatures are 0.degree. to 100.degree. C. Activators, such as, for example, 1,4-diazabicyclooctane (DABCO) and tin-II octoate, can be used to accelerate the reaction.
The reaction products are isolated in the customary manner by distilling off the solvent and, thoroughly washing the amine hydrochloride which may be formed in the reaction, or by precipitation with water in the case where the reaction is carried out in a water-miscible solvent.
