Pesticidal properties of quaternary
ammonium salts based on chloromethylated diarylmetanes
dpisanenko@mail.ru
 
It is known
that quaternary ammonium salts are the basis of a number of industrial
pesticides used in agriculture [1]. However, the observed increase in
resistance of microorganisms and fungi to these pesticides causes the synthesis
and study of the pesticide properties of new salts of this series [2,3].
Practical interest can provide quaternary ammonium salts derived from available
commercial reagents, which include diarylmetanes used as liquid dielectrics,
heat transfer fluids and plasticizers [4,5]. In this regard, the purpose of
this work was to study the synthesis and properties of the pesticide quaternary
ammonium salt-based products such diarylmetanes chloromethylation.
As
diarymetanes used mono-, di-and tribenzyltoluens isolated by fractionation of a
commercial mixture and the products of benzylation benzyltoluens xylene,
ethylbenzene, o-chlorotoluene and phenetoule, as determined using the GLC on
the device "Biohrom-3700" (5% OV-17 on Chromosorb W, carrier gas -
helium). Chloromethylation with control groups of CH2Cl-NMR Spectrometer (TESLA
BS-487, internal standard HMDS) and quaternization was performed as previously
described [6]. In this scheme, we have stated below were synthesized quaternary
ammonium salts (1-10):

 
Pesticidal properties of the synthesized compounds
(1-10) were studied by standard
methods adopted for carrying out screening studies [7]. The experimental results are presented in Tables 1-2.

As can be seen from Table 1, compounds
(1-10) exhibit a moderate activity against insects and spider mites, little effect on the black beet aphids.
Only compound (3) and (6) show significant
activity against rice weevil beetles (72
deaths and 97% respectively), compound (9) and (10) is
sufficiently active against houseflies
(84 deaths and
77% respectively).
Compounds (1-10) have a weakly pronounced
fungicidal and bactericidal properties (Table 2). The maximum effect on smut (72%
inhibition of development) has only the compound
(10).

Herbicidal activity was studied in 11 test sites
in the greenhouse under optimal lighting conditions, humidity and temperature.
Compounds (1-10) at a dose corresponding to 5 kg /
ha, applied in two ways: by
spraying the soil after sowing
of seeds and growing plants by spraying. Showed high
herbicidal activity of the compound (6,9-10),
they caused a complete loss of radish and
53-62% reduction in weight of buckwheat.
From the results it follows that among the synthesized quaternary ammonium salts (1-10) compounds are present, pesticide properties are of interest to develop new chemicals and to study the
relation between structure and biological
activity.
