This is a divisional of application Ser. No. 473,905 filed on Mar. 10, 1983, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,530,716.
The present invention relates to novel oxime ethers, to the preparation thereof, to compositions for protecting cultivated plants from the phytotoxic effects of herbicides, which compositions contain the novel oxime ethers as active component, and to the use thereof.
It is known that herbicides belonging to a very wide range of compound classes such as triazines, urea derivatives, carbamates, thiocarbamates, haloacetanilides, halophenoxyacetic acids etc., when employed in an effective concentration, often also damage cultivated plants to a certain extent in addition to the weeds which it is desired to control. To counteract this problem, different compounds have already been proposed which are able specifically to antagonise the harmful action of the herbicide on the cultivated plant, i.e. to protect the cultivated plant without noticeably influencing the herbicidal action on the weeds to be controlled. However, it has been found that the proposed antidotes very often have a species-specific activity both with respect to the cultivated plants and to the herbicide and also, in some cases, contingent on the mode of application, i.e. a specific antidote is often suitable only for a specific cultivated plant and a few classes of herbicides.
For example, British patent specification No. 1 277 577 describes the protective treatment of seeds or seedlings of wheat and sorghum with certain oxamic acid esters and amides against attack by ALACHLOR (N-methoxymethyl-N-chloroacetyl-2,6-diethylaniline). Antidotes for treating cereals, maize and rice seeds against the harmful effects of herbicidal thiocarbamates are proposed in German Offenlegungsschrift specification Nos. 1 952 910 and 2 245 471 and in French patent specification No. 2 021 611. German patent specification No. 1 576 676 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,131,509 disclose the use of hydroxyaminoacetanilides and hydantoins for protecting cereal seeds against the effects of carbamates.
The direct pre- or postemergence treatment of certain useful plants with antidotes as antagonists of specific classes of herbicides in a crop area is disclosed in German Offenlegungsschrift specification Nos. 2 141 586 and 2 218 097 and in U.S. Pat. No. 3,867,444.
Further, German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2 402 983 discloses that maize plants can be effectively protected against damage by chloroacetanilides by adding an N-disubstituted dichloroacetamide as antidote to the soil.
According to European patent application No. 11.047, alkoximinobenzylcyanides, in which the alkoxy group is substituted, inter alia, by an acetalised carbonyl group, can also be used as antidotes for protecting cultivated plants from the harmful effects of herbicides belonging to different classes of compounds.
The present invention relates to novel oxime ethers of the formula I ##STR2## wherein n is 1 or 2, each of R1 and R2 is hydrogen or C1 -C4 alkyl each of R3 and R4 is hydrogen, halogen, C1 -C4 alkyl, C1 -C4 haloalkyl, C1 -C4 alkoxy, C1 -C4 haloalkoxy, C1 -C4 alkylthio, C1 -C4 haloalkylthio, C1 -C4 alkylsulfinyl, C1 -C4 alkylsulfonyl, C1 -C4 haloalkylsulfinyl, C1 -C4 haloalkylsulfonyl or nitro; each of R5 and R6 independently of the other is C1 -C4 alkyl, C1 -C4 haloalkyl, C2 -C8 alkoxyalkyl, C3 -C4 alkenyl, C3 -C4 alkynyl, or together form a 2- to 6-membered alkylene or alkenylene bridge which may be substituted by 1 to 4 C1 -C4 alkyl, C1 -C4 haloalkyl, C1 -C4 alkoxy, C2 -C4 alkenyloxy, C2 -C8 alkoxyalkyl or C3 - C8 alkenyloxyalkyl groups; each of A and B independently of the other is oxygen or sulfur, or one of A and B is the methine group, X is a fluorinated C1 -C3 alkyl radical which may also additionally contain chlorine, and Y is hydrogen, C1 -C4 alkyl, C1 -C4 haloalkyl, C1 -C4 alkoxy, C1 -C4 haloalkoxy or phenyl.
The C1 -C4 alkyl groups represented by or contained in the radicals R1 to R6 may be straight chain or branched and are individually methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, isobutyl and tert-butyl. Among these alkyl groups, C1 -C2 alkyl groups are preferred and R1 as alkyl is preferably methyl.
Halogen denotes fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, with fluorine and chlorine being preferred.
The fluorinated alkyl radical X may be e.g. difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl, chlorodifluoromethyl, tetrafluoroethyl, pentafluoroethyl, difluorochlorofluoroethyl and heptafluoropropyl. Among these radicals X, perfluorinated alkyl radicals are preferred in which one fluorine atom may be replaced by a chlorine atom. Particularly preferred radicals X are trifluoromethyl, chlorodifluoromethyl and pentafluoroethyl.
Depending on the significance of A, B and Y, different ether or thioether derivatives are obtained. Where each of A and B is oxygen, Y is hydrogen and each of R5 and R6 is alkyl, alkenyl or substituted alkyl, acetals are obtained. Where R5 and R6 together form an alkylene or alkenylene bridge, cyclic acetals are obtained, e.g. 1,3-dioxolanes, 1,3-dioxane, 1,3-dioxepane or 1,3-dioxep-5-one derivatives as well as higher dioxo ring systems.
Where each of A and B is sulfur, Y is hydrogen and each of R5 and R6 is a hydrocarbon radical, thioacetals are obtained. Where R5 and R6 together form a hydrocarbon bridge, dithiolones and dithianes are obtained.
Where each of A and B is oxygen and Y is alkyl or phenyl, ketals are obtained. Thioketals are obtained if A and B are sulfur.
Orthoesters are obtained where each of A and B is oxygen, Y is alkoxy and each of R5 and R6 is a hydrocarbon radical. Cyclic orthoesters are obtained where R5 and R6 together form a hydrocarbon bridge.
A may also be oxygen, B methylene and Y hydrogen, and R5 and R6 together form a hydrocarbon bridge, to give furane, dihydrofurane, tetrahydrofurane, pyrane, di- or tetrahydropyrane derivatives and similar oxygen ring derivatives.
Different preparatory methods are often employed for these types of compounds.

Compounds of the formula I can also be converted into other compounds. A 4,7-dihydro-1,3-dioxepine compound of formula I is prepared e.g. by the following reaction scheme: ##STR13##
According to a process described in Tetrahedron 21 (1980) 4922, the double bond is displaced by treating this compound at 100° C. with a ruthenium catalyst to form the corresponding 4,5-dihydro-1,3-dioxepine compound. ##STR14##
To prepare the compounds of formula I, wherein Y is an alkyl or phenyl radical, the oxime salt of formula VI is reacted with a haloalkyl or phenyl ketal or thioketal, preferably with a bromo- or iodoketal, in accordance with the reaction scheme: ##STR15##
Such haloketals are known from the literature. The α-bromacetone ketal can be prepared by the method described in Synthesis 1982 309, and other ketals, e.g. 1-bromopinacoline ethylene ketal or 1-bromoacetophenone ethylene ketal, may be prepared by the method described in J. prakt. Chemie 156 (1940) 121.
These compounds can also be obtained by condensation of oximes e.g. with haloketones such as bromacetone and subsequent ketalisation. A further method of preparing such compounds is e.g. the reaction with 2-methoxy-1,3-dioxolane as described in J. of Med.Chem. 25 (1982), 12, in accordance with the scheme: ##STR16##
The orthoesters of formula I (compounds in which Y is alkoxy) are prepared by reacting the oxime salt of formula VI with a haloorthocarboxylic acid ester, e.g. triethyl monobromo-orthoacetate, in accordance with J.Am.Soc.59 (1937), 1273 and with the reaction scheme: ##STR17##
Reaction of the halo-orthocarboxylates with suitable diols and mercaptans gives mixed esters such as glycol ethyl bromo-orthoacetate or dimethylthioethyl bromo-orthoacetate, which are suitable for reaction with the oxime salt of formula VI. Orthoesters of formula I can also be prepared e.g. by a method described in J.Am.Chem.Soc.77 (1955), 4574, by reacting a cyanoalkyl oxime to give the iminoester hydrochloride and subsequently condensing this latter compound with a diol, e.g. glycol, according to the reaction scheme: ##STR18##
Compounds of formula I, wherein A and/or B are sulfur, are prepared by methods similar to those employed for preparing the acetal compounds. Simple thioacetals, thioketals, dithiolanes and dithianes can be prepared by using thiols or dithiols. Particularly suitable, however, is the transesterification of aliphatic dialkyl acetals e.g. with a mercaptan, e.g. the transesterification of an oxime dimethoxyethylester with a mercaptan such as 1,2-ethylenedithiol in the following reaction scheme: ##STR19##
These same cyclic thioacetal compounds can also be obtained by reacting the corresponding acetals with dithiols according to the reaction scheme: ##STR20##
Compounds of formula I, wherein A is oxygen, B is methylene and Y is hydrogen, and R5 and R6 together form a hydrocarbon bridge member, can be prepared by reacting the oxime salts of formula VI with corresponding 2-α-haloalkyl oxygen rings such as 2-bromomethylfurane, 2-bromomethylpyrane, 2-bromoethyloxepane, according to the reaction scheme: ##STR21##
Instead of starting from oxime salts of formula VI as in the preceding processes, it is also possible to start from the ketones on which these oximes are based and reacting them with O-substituted hydroxylamines in accordance with the reaction scheme: ##STR22##
Further, such phenones can be transacetalised with correspondingly substituted acetone oxime ethers to give compounds of the formula I ##STR23##
The novel oxime ethers of formula I are most suitable for protecting cultivated plants from damage caused by agrochemicals. This protection extends in particular to herbicides of different compound classes, including 1,3,5-triazines, 1,2,4-triazines, phenylurea derivatives, carbamates, thiocarbamates, phenoxyacetates, phenoxypropionates, haloacetanilides, halophenoxyacetates, substituted phenoxyphenoxyacetates and phenoxyphenoxypropionates, substituted pyridyloxyphenoxyacetates and pyridyloxyphenoxypropionates, benzoic acid derivatives etc., where these compounds are not tolerated or are insufficiently tolerated by cultivated plants. The novel oxime ethers of formula I are suitable in particular for protecting cultivated plants from the harmful effects of haloacetanilides and thiocarbamates. They can therefore be termed antidotes or also safeners with respect to their use in combination with the herbicides referred to above.
The compounds of the formula I exist in different isomeric forms. As oxime derivatives, these compounds are obtained in the syn- and anti-form or as mixtures thereof (E- and Z-form, cf. R. S. Cohn et al., Ang. Chemie Int. Ed. 5 (1966), 385, or Experientia 12 (1956), p. 81).
Depending on the substitution of the compounds of formula I, an asymmetrical carbon atom is present and two enantiomers may be obtained. In general, a mixture of both enantiomers is obtained, which mixture can be resolved into the optional antipodes in conventional manner.
The monosubstituted dioxolanes and dioxanes lead to further cis-trans-isomers or mixtures thereof. Disubstituted dioxolanes lead to cis-syn-isomers, cis-anti-isomers and to trans-isomers or mixtures thereof. The number of isomers can be reduced by choice of starting materials, e.g. by using the pure Z-form of the oximes. The present invention also relates to these different isomers and to mixtures thereof.
Depending on the end use, the safener or antidote of the formula I can be used for pretreating seeds of the cultivated plant (dressing of the seeds or seedlings) or it can be added to the soil before or after sowing. However, it can also be applied pre- or post-emergence by itself alone or together with the herbicide. The treatment of the plant or seeds with the antidote can therefore in principle be carried out independently of the time of application of the phytotoxic chemical. It can, however, also be carried out by simultaneous application of phytoxic chemical and antidote (tank mixture). The pre-emergence treatment includes both treatment of the crop area before sowing (ppi=pre-plant incorporation) and treatment of the crop areas after sowing but before emergence of the plants.
The rates of application of the antidote with respect to the herbicide depend largely on the mode of application. Where a field treatment is carried out, either simultaneously as tank mixture or with separate application of herbicide and antidote, the ratio of antidote to herbicide is in the range from 1:100 to 5:1. Full protective action is usually obtained at a ratio of antidote to herbicide of 1:1 to 1:20. When dressing seeds and taking similar specific protective measures, however, much lower amounts of antidote are required compared with e.g. the amounts of herbicide later employed per hectare or crop area. For seed dressing, 0.1 to 10 g of antidote per kg of seeds are required, with the preferred amount being from 1 to 2 grams. If it is desired to apply the antidote shortly before sowing by seed pretreatment, antidote solutions which contain the active ingredient in a concentration of 1 to 10,000 ppm are used. Full protective action is normally obtained with antidote concentrations of 100 to 1000 ppm.
As a rule there is a substantial interval of time between protective measures such as seed dressing and treatment of seedlings with an antidote of the formula I and the possible later field treatment with agricultural chemicals. Pretreated seeds and plants can later come in contact with different chemicals in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Accordingly, the invention relates to plant protection compositions which contain an antidote of the formula I as active ingredient, together with conventional carriers. If appropriate, such compositions may be additionally mixed with the chemical against whose effects it is desired to protect the cultivated plant.
Cultivated plants within the scope of this invention are all plants which, in any form, can be harvested (seeds, roots, stalks, tubers, leaves, blossoms) and from which extracts can be obtained (oils, sugar, starch, protein) and which are cultivated for this purpose.
To these plants belong e.g. all species of cereals such es wheat, rye, barley, oats and, in particular, rice, sorghum, maize, and also cotton, sugar beet, sugar cane, soybeans, beans, and peas.
The antidote can be employed wherever it is desired to protect a cultivated plant of the kind indicated above from the harmful effects of an agricultural chemical. As already mentioned, possible agricultural chemicals are primilarly herbicides of the most widely varying compound classes, in particular haloacetanilides and thiocarbamates.
Numerous haloacetanilides whose harmful effects on cultivated plants can be antagonised with the novel oxime ethers of the formula I are known in the art (q.v. German patent applications 2 305 495, 2 328 340, 2 212 268, 2 726 252 and 2 805 757, and U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,946,044, 4,022,608 and 4,039,314). Such haloacetanilides may be illustrated by the general formula XIV ##STR24## wherein Hal is halogen, preferably chlorine or bromine, each of R8 and R9 independently of the other is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, haloalkyl, alkoxyalkyl or alkylthioalkyl, Z is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, haloalkyl, alkoxyalkyl or alkylthioalkyl, which radicals Z are preferably in the 3-position with respect to the nitrogen atom, n is 0 to 3, A is alkylene, preferably methylene, 1,1-ethylene, and 1,2-ethylene which may be substituted by 1 or 2 lower alkyl groups, and R10 is lower alkoxy, hydroxycarbonyl, alkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, N-alkylcarbamoyl, N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl, cyano, an unsubstituted or substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic radical, alkanoyl, unsubstituted or substituted benzoyl, unsubstituted or substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl, 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl, 1,3,4-triazol-3-yl or 1,3,4-triazol-1-yl.

Numerous herbicidal thiocarbamates whose phytotoxic action on cultivated plants can be antagonised by the novel oxime ethers of the formula I are also known (q.v. for example U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,913,327, 3,037,853, 3,175,897, 3,185,720, 3,198,786, 3,582,314 and 3,846,115). The protective action of the novel oxime ethers of the formula I can be utilised particularly when applying thiocarbamates in cereals, rice or sorghum.
The thiocarbamates against whose phytotoxic action cultivated plants such as cereals, rice and sorghum may particularly be protected, have the general formulae XV and XVI: ##STR25## wherein R11 is lower alkyl, alkenyl, chloroallyl, dichloroallyl, trichloroallyl, benzyl or 4-chlorobenzyl, R12 is C2 -C4 alkyl and R13 is C2 -C4 alkyl or cyclohexyl, and R12 and R13 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached can form a hexahydro-1H-azepine, decahydroquinoline or 2-methyldecahydroquinoline ring.

The amount of antidote employed varies from about 0.01 to about 15 parts by weight per part by weight of herbicide. The most suitable ratio in respect of optimum action on the particular cultivated plant is established from case to case, i.e. depending on the type of herbicide employed.
The compounds of the formula I are used in unmodified form or, preferably, together with the adjuvants conventionally employed in the art of formulation, and are therefore formulated in known manner to emulsifiable concentrates, coatable pastes, directly sprayable or dilutable solutions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts, granulates, and also encapsulations in e.g. polymer substances. As with the nature of the compositions, the methods of application, such as spraying, atomising, dusting, scattering or pouring, are chosen in accordance with the intended objectives and the prevailing circumstances.
The formulations, i.e. the compositions containing the compound (active ingredient) of the formula I and, where appropriate, a solid or liquid adjuvant, are prepared in known manner, e.g. by homogeneously mixing and/or grinding the active ingredients with extenders, e.g. solvents, solid carriers and, where appropriate, surface-active compounds (surfactants).
Suitable solvents are: aromatic hydrocarbons, preferably the fractions containing 8 to 12 carbon atoms, e.g. xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalates such as dibutyl phthalate or dioctyl phthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols and their ethers and esters, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol monomethyl or monoethyl ether, ketones such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylsulfoxide or dimethylformamide, as well as epoxidsed vegetable oils such as epoxidised coconut oil or soybean oil; or water.
The solid carriers used e.g. for dusts and dispersible powders, are normally natural mineral fillers such as calcite, talcum, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite. In order to improve the physical properties it is also possible to add highly dispersed silicic acid or highly dispersed absorbent polymers. Suitable granulated adsorptive carriers are porous types, for example pumice, broken brick, sepiolite or bentonite; and suitable nonsorbent carriers are materials such as calcite or sand. In addition, a great number of pregranulated materials of inorganic or organic nature can be used, e.g. especially dolomite or pulverised plant residues.
Depending on the nature of the compound of the formula I to be formulated, suitable surface-active compounds are nonionic, cationic and/or anionic surfactants having good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties. The term "surfactants" will also be understood as comprising mixtures of surfactants.
Suitable anionic surfactants can be both water-soluble soaps and water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds.
Suitable soaps are the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts or unsubstituted or substituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C10 -C22), e.g. the sodium or potassium salts of oleic or stearic acid, or of natural fatty acid mixtures which can be obtained e.g. from coconut oil or tallow oil. Mention may also be made of fatty acid methyltaurin salts.
More frequently, however, so-called synthetic surfactants are used, especially fatty sulfonates, fatty sulfates, sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives or alkylarylsulfonates.
The fatty sulfonates or sulfates are usually in the form of alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts or unsubstituted or substituted ammoniums salts and contain a C8 -C22 alkyl radical which also includes the alkyl moiety of acyl radicals, e.g. the sodium or calcium salt of lignosulfonic acid, of dodecylsulfate or of a mixture of fatty alcohol sulfates obtained from natural fatty acids. These compounds also comprise the salts of sulfuric acid esters and sulfonic acids of fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide adducts. The sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives preferably contain 2 sulfonic acid groups and one fatty acid radical containing 8 to 22 carbon atoms. Examples of alkylarylsulfonates are the sodium, calcium or triethanolamine salts of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid, or of a naphthalenesulfonic acid/formaldehyde condensation product. Also suitable are corresponding phosphates, e.g. salts of the phosphoric acid ester of an adduct of p-nonylphenol with 4 to 14 moles of ethylene oxide.
Non-ionic surfactants are preferably polyglycol ether derivatives of aliphtic or cycloaliphatic alcohols, or saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and alkylphenols, said derivatives containing 3 to 30 glycol ether groups and 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon moiety and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl moiety of the alkylphenols.
Further suitable non-ionic surfactants are the water-soluble adducts of polyethylene oxide with polypropylene glycol, ethylenediamine propylene glycol and alkylpolypropylene glycol containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, which adducts contain 20 to 250 ethylene glycol ether groups and 10 to 100 propylene glycol ether groups. These compounds usually contain 1 to 5 ethylene glycol units per propylene glycol unit.
Representative examples of non-ionic surfactants are nonylphenolpolyethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene/polyethylene oxide adducts, tributylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxyethoxyethanol. Fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan and polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate are also suitable non-ionic surfactants.
Cationic surfactants are preferably quaternary ammonium salts which contain, as N-substituent, at least one C8 -C22 alkyl radical and, as further substituents, lower unsubstituted or halogenated alkyl, benzyl or lower hydroxyalkyl radicals. The salts are preferably in the form of halides, methylsulfates or ethylsulfates, e.g. stearyltrimethylammonium chloride or benzyldi(2-chloroethyl)ethylammonium bromide.
The surfactants customarily employed in the art of formulation are described e.g. in "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Corp. Ringwood, N.J., 1979, and Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publishing Co., Inc. New York, 1980.
These compositions usually contain 0.1 to 99%, preferably 0.1 to 95%, of a compound of the formula I, 1 to 99% of a solid or liquid adjuvant, and 0 to 25%, preferably 0.1 to 25%, or a surfactant.
Whereas commercial products are preferably formulated as concentrates, the end user will normally employ dilute formulations.
The compositions may also contain further ingredients, such as stabilisers, antifoams, viscotity regulators, binders, tackifiers as well as fertilisers or other active ingredients in order to obtain special effects.
The invention is illustrated in more detail by the following Examples, without implying any restriction to what is described therein. Parts and percentages are by weight.
EXAMPLE 1
Preparation of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethoxyimino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (compound 40)
(a) In a 100 ml round flask, 1.2 g (0.05 mole) of metallic sodium are dissolved in 50 ml of absoute ethanol, and then 11.2 g (0.05 mole) of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-hydroximino-2,2,2-trifluoroethane are added. When the addition is complete, the reaction mixture is stirred initially for half an hour at room temperature and then the solvent is removed by evaporation. With stirring, 8.4 g (0.05 mole) of 2-bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane are added dropwise to the solution of the residue in 50 ml of dimethylsulfoxide and the batch is subsequently stirred for 4 hours at 60° to 70° C. The resultant suspension is cooled and poured into a mixture of ice and water. The reaction product is obtained from the mixture by extraction with methylene chloride. The extract is dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is removed by evaporation. The crude product is an orange oil which is purified by distillation in a high vacuum. Yield: 12.5 g (80.6% of theory) of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethoximino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane in the form of a colourless oil with a boiling point of 105° to 108° C./0.1 mbar.
(b) The starting 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-hydroximino-2,2,2-trifluoroethane is prepared as follows:
A mixture of 417 g (2 moles) of 4-chloro-ω,ω,ω-trifluoroacetophenone, 139 g (2 moles) of hydroxylamino hydrochloride and 500 ml of pyridine is stirred for 15 hours at room temperature. The pyridine is subsequently removed by distillation and the oily residue is stirred in ice/water. The product is extracted with methylene chloride and extract is dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent removed by evaporation, affording 438 g (98% of theory) of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-hydroximino-2,2,2-trifluoroethane in the form of an oil.
EXAMPLE 2
Preparation of 1-phenyl-1-(1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethoximino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (compound 38)
13.8 (0.07 mole) of 1-(hydroximino)-1-phenyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethane are stirred into a solution of 1.5 g (0.07 mole) of metallic sodium in 50 ml of absolute ethanol and the solvent is subsequently evaporated off. With stirring, 6.7 g (0.10 mole) of 2-bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane are added dropwise to the solution of the residue in 50 ml of dimethylsulfoxide. When the addition of 2-bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane is complete, the reaction mixture is stirred initially for 4 hours at 60° to 70° C. and then the resultant suspension is poured into a mixture of ice and water. The product is extracted with methylene chloride and the extract is dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is removed by evaporation. The crude product is an orange oil which is purified by distillation in a high vacuum. Yield: 15 g (78% of theory) of 1-phenyl-1-(1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethoximino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane with a boiling point of 89° to 90° C./0.1 mbar.
EXAMPLE 3
Preparation of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,2-diethoxyethoximino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (compound 11)
25.6 g (0.1 mole) of 1-hydroximino-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane are added dropwise to a solution of 2.3 g (0.1 mole) of metallic sodium in 50 ml of absolute ethanol. When the addition is complete, the reaction mixture is stirred for half an hour at room temperature and then the solvent is removed by evaporation. With stirring, 29.7 g (0.15 mole) of 2-bromacetaldehyde diethyl acetal are added to the solution of the residue in 50 ml of dimethylsulfoxide. When the addition is complete, the reaction mixture is stirred for 4 hours at 60° to 70° C. and then poured into a mixture of ice and water. The crude oily product obtained after extraction with methylene chloride, drying the extract over sodium sulfate and removing the solvent by evaporation is purified by distillation in a high vacuum. Yield: 20.5g (73.5% of theory) of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,2-diethoxyethoximino)-2,2,2-trifluoroethane in the form of a colourless oil with a boiling point of 95° to 97° C./0.02 mbar.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES
The ability of the compounds of formula I to protect cultivated plants from the phytotoxic effects of potent herbicides is illustrated in the following Examples. In the test procedures the compounds of formula I are referred to as antidotes.
EXAMPLE 6
Test with antidote and herbicide in maize
Preemergence ppi application of antidote and herbicide as tank mixture
The compound for testing as safener is sprayed onto the soil together with the herbicide and the mixture is then incorporated into the soil. Plastic containers measuring 25 cm×17 cm×10 cm are then filled with the treated soil and LG 5 maize seeds are sown therein. The protective action of the safener is then evaluated (in %) 21 days after application. The plants treated with herbicide alone and the completely untreated plants are used for reference purposes. A good (significant) safener effect is achieved if the phytoxicity of severe to average plant damage can be reduced to slight, reversible damage or to complete tolerance. A protective action of at least 25% is normally sufficient for this. The results are reported below.

Test with antidote and herbicide in rice
Application of the antidote during immersion of the rice seeds, and preemergence application of the herbicide to the moist soil
Rice seeds are immersed for 48 hours in 100 ppm solutions of the compound for testing as safener. The seeds are then allowed to dry for about 2 hours until they are no longer tacky. Plastic containers measuring 25 cm×17 cm×12 cm are filled with sandy loam to 2 cm below the edge. The pretreated seeds are sown on the surface of the soil in the containers and only lightly covered. The soil is kept in a moist (non-marshy) state. Then a dilute solution of the herbicide is sprayed onto the surface of the soil. The water level is then gradually raised in accordance with growth of the rice plants. The protective action of the safener is evaluated (in %) 18 days after application. The plants treated with herbicide alone and the completely untreated controls are used for reference purposes. The results are as follows:
