    DETAILED DESCRIPTION

    [0006] Before the present invention is described in greater detail, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to particular embodiments described, as such may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting, since the scope of the present invention will be limited only by the appended claims.

    [0007] Where a range of values is provided, it is understood that each intervening value, to the tenth of the unit of the lower limit unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, between the upper and lower limits of that range is also specifically disclosed. Each smaller range between any stated value or intervening value in a stated range and any other stated or intervening value in that stated range is encompassed within the invention. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may independently be included or excluded in the range, and each range where either, neither or both limits are included in the smaller ranges is also encompassed within the invention, subject to any specifically excluded limit in the stated range. Where the stated range includes one or both of the limits, ranges excluding either or both of those included limits are also included in the invention.

    [0008] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, some potential and exemplary methods and materials may now be described. Any and all publications mentioned herein are incorporated herein by reference to disclose and describe the methods and/or materials in connection with which the publications are cited. It is understood that the present disclosure supersedes any disclosure of an incorporated publication to the extent there is a contradiction.

    [0009] It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms a, an, and the include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It is further noted that the claims may be drafted to exclude any element, e.g., any optional element. As such, this statement is intended to serve as antecedent basis for use of such exclusive terminology as solely, only and the like in connection with the recitation of claim elements, or the use of a negative limitation.

    [0010] The publications discussed herein are provided solely for their disclosure prior to the filing date of the present application. Further, the dates of publication provided may be different from the actual publication dates which may need to be independently confirmed. To the extent the definition or usage of any term herein conflicts with a definition or usage of a term in an application or reference incorporated by reference herein, the instant application shall control.

    [0011] As will be apparent to those of skill in the art upon reading this disclosure, each of the individual embodiments described and illustrated herein has discrete components and features which may be readily separated from or combined with the features of any of the other several embodiments without departing from the scope or spirit of the present invention. Any recited method can be carried out in the order of events recited or in any other order which is logically possible.

    Definitions

    [0012] Administering refers to any suitable mode of administration, to control a fungal pathogen, including, treatment of an extant crop, seeds, soil or combination thereof.

    [0013] Control with reference to a fungal pathogen, means block, inhibit and/or eradicate a fungal pathogen and/or prevent the fungal pathogen from damaging a crop. In one embodiment, control refers to the reduction of one or more fungi to undetectable levels, or to the reduction or suppression of a fungus to acceptable levels as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art (for example, a crop grower). Determinations of acceptable levels of fungus reduction are based on a number of factors, including to the crop, pathogen, severity of the pathogen, use restrictions, economic thresholds and other factors known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

    [0014] As used herein, the terms enhancer and potentiator, refer to a compound or compounds disclosed herein that enhance the effects of a pesticide. Without limitation to theory the present enhancer compounds disclosed herein may function by blocking one or more pathways by which a pathogen, such as a fungal pathogen, evades toxicity, such as by detoxifying, sequestering or transporting a pesticide. In certain embodiment, the present compounds inhibit enzymatic apyrase activity which leads to the enhancement, accentuation or potentiation of a pesticide, such as an acaricide, antimicrobial, fungicide, herbicide, insecticide, molluscicide and/or nematocide. For example, when the enhancer or potentiator is used in conjunction with a fungicide, the combination of the potentiator and the fungicide enhances the fungicidal effect of the fungicide and/or renders a fungus that has become resistant to the fungicide susceptible to the fungicide as a result of the activity of the potentiator. Most often, these enhancers or potentiators do not themselves inhibit the growth of a fungus itself, nor do they have a detrimental effect on a living organism that is (or could be) infected with a fungus.

    [0015] As used herein, the term inoculation refers to a method used to administer or apply an effective amount of a disclosed compound or formulation thereof to a target area of a field and/or plant. The inoculation method can be, but is not limited to, aerosol spray, pressure spray, direct watering, and dipping. Target areas of a plant could include, but are not limited to, the leaves, roots, stems, buds, flowers, fruit, seed of the plant, and bulbs of the plant including bulb, corm, rhizoma, stem tuber, root tuber and rhizophore. Inoculation can include a method wherein a plant is treated in one area (for example, the root zone or foliage) and another area of the plant becomes protected (for example, foliage is inoculated when a disclosed compound is applied in the root zone or new growth when applied to foliage).

    [0016] As used herein, the terms wettable granule, water dispersible granule, and dispersible granule refer to a solid granular formulation prepared by a granulation process, optionally containing fine particles of polymer-associated active ingredient, or aggregates of the same, a wetting agent and/or a dispersant, and optionally an inert filler. Wettable granules can be stored as a formulation, and can be provided to the market and/or end user without further processing. In some embodiments, they can be placed in a water-soluble bag for ease of use by the end user. In practical application, wettable granules are prepared for application by the end user. The wettable granules are mixed with water in the end user's spray tank to the proper dilution for the particular application. Dilution can vary by crop, target pathogen, time of year, geography, local regulations, and intensity of infection or pathogen load among other factors. Once properly diluted, the solution can be applied by spraying.

    [0017] As used herein, the terms wettable powder, water dispersible powder, and dispersible powder, refer to a solid powdered formulation that contains active ingredient, optionally associated with a polymer, or aggregates of the same, and optionally one or more of a dispersant, a wetting agent, and an inert filler. Wettable powders can be stored as a formulation, and can be provided to the market and/or end user without further processing. In some embodiments, they can be placed in a water-soluble bag for ease of use by the end user. In practical application, a wettable powder is prepared for application by the end user. The wettable powder is mixed with water in the end user's spray tank to the proper dilution for the particular application. Dilution can vary by crop, fungal pathogen, time of year, geography, local regulations, and intensity of fungal load, among other factors. Once properly diluted, the solution can be applied by spraying.

    [0018] As used herein, the term high solids liquid suspension refers to a liquid formulation that contains fine particles of active ingredient, or fine polymer particles associated with active ingredient, or aggregates of the same, a wetting agent and/or a dispersant, an anti-freezing agent, optionally an anti-settling agent or thickener, optionally a preservative, and water or oil as a carrier. High solids liquid suspensions can be stored as a formulation, and can be provided to the market and/or end user without further processing. In practical application, high solids liquid suspensions are prepared for application by the end user. The high solids liquid suspensions are mixed with water or oil in the end user's spray tank to the proper dilution for the particular application. Dilution can vary by crop, fungal pathogen, time of year, geography, local regulations, and intensity of infection among other factors. Once properly diluted, the solution can be applied by spraying.

    [0019] As used herein, the term phytologically acceptable refers to compositions, diluents, excipients, and/or carriers that are generally applicable for use with any part of a plant during any part of its life cycle, including but not limited to seeds, seedlings, plant cells, plants, or flowers. The compositions can be prepared according to procedures, methods and formulas that are known to those of skill in the agricultural arts. Following the teachings of the present disclosure the artist skilled in the agricultural and/or chemical arts can readily prepare a desired composition. Most commonly, the compounds disclosed herein can be formulated to be stored, and/or applied, as aqueous or non-aqueous suspensions or emulsions prepared neat or from concentrated formulations of the compositions. Alternatively the compounds disclosed herein can be formulated for use in aerosol-generating equipment for application to agricultural produce stored in sealed chambersan application method known as fogging. Water-soluble, water-suspendable or emulsifiable formulations comprising the presently disclosed compounds can also be converted into or formulated as solids (for example, wettable powders), which can then be diluted into a final formulation. In certain formulations, the compositions of the present disclosure can also be provided in growth media, such as in vitro media for growth of plant or other types of cells, in laboratory plant growth media, in soil, or for spraying on seeds, seedlings, roots, stems, stalks, leaves, flowers or the entire plant.

    [0020] Compounds herein can include all stereoisomers, including E and Z isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, mixtures, racemates, atropisomers, and tautomers thereof.

    ##STR00004##

    Group G

    [0064] In some embodiments, G comprises a six-membered aryl or six-membered heteroaryl ring, such as phenyl or pyridine. In some embodiments, G is optionally substituted phenyl, i.e. G can be unsubstituted phenyl or it can be phenyl substituted with R.sup.a, R.sup.b, and R.sup.a substituted with one or more of the same or different R.sup.b.

    [0065] In some cases, G is substituted phenyl. In some cases, G is a phenyl group substituted at its para position, such as with a C.sub.1-6 alkyl group. In some cases, G is a phenyl group substituted at its para position with a n-propyl group, i.e. G has formula (Ia):

    ##STR00005##

    [0066] In some cases, G is a phenyl group substituted at its para position with an Ar group that is an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl group, as shown below in formula (Ib). As such, Ar in formula (Ib) can be an unsubstituted aryl group, a substituted aryl group, an unsubstituted heteroaryl group, or a substituted heteroaryl group.

    ##STR00006##

    [0067] In some embodiments of formula (Ib), Ar is unsubstituted, substituted with an R.sup.a group of C.sub.1-6 alkyl, or substituted with an R.sup.b group of halogen.

    [0068] In some cases, G is an optionally substituted biphenyl group, i.e. G is a phenyl group that is substituted with an R.sup.a group of phenyl. In some cases, the compound has formula (Ib1), i.e. wherein G is an unsubstituted biphenyl group.

If Ar is heteroaryl, then it will be a 5-10 membered heteroaryl, since that is the option for R.sup.a recited in relation to formula (I).

    ##STR00008##

    wherein Ar is optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl.

    [0070] In some cases, the Ar of formula (Ic) is unsubstituted, substituted with an R.sup.a group of C.sub.1-6 alkyl, or substituted with an R.sup.b group of halogen.

    Group Z

    [0071] As discussed above, Z is selected from the group consisting of monocyclic aryl, bicylic aryl, monocyclic heteroaryl, bicyclic heteroaryl, and C.sub.1-6 alkyl.

    [0072] In some cases, Z is substituted phenyl. For instance, Z can be phenyl substituted with an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl group. In some cases, Z is phenyl substituted with an optinally substituted alkyl group. In some cases, Z is phenyl substituted with an R.sup.b group.

    [0073] In some cases, the compound has formula (Id):

    ##STR00009##

    [0074] In some cases, the compound has formula (Ie):

    ##STR00010##

    [0075] In formulas (Id) and (Ie), the Z group is a phenyl group that is substituted with a sulfonamide (NHSO.sub.2) or (NHSO.sub.2) group, as allowed for in the description of the options for formula (I).

    [0076] In some cases, Z is phenyl substituted with an R.sup.b group of halogen or CF.sub.3.

    [0077] In some cases, Z is optionally substituted monocyclic heteroaryl, such as pyridyl or pyrimidyl.

    [0078] In certain cases, Z and R.sup.1 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring selected from heterocyclylalkyl rings optionally substituted with 1, 2 or 3 groups selected from R.sup.a and R.sup.b. In one such embodiment wherein Z and R.sup.1 together form a 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring, the ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together contains one or more additional heteroatoms. In one aspect of such embodiments, the one or more additional heteroatoms are selected from the group consisting of oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur. In such embodiments wherein an additional heteroatom is nitrogen, the nitrogen atom optionally is substituted. Similarly, in such embodiments wherein an additional heteroatom is sulfur, the sulfur atom optionally is substituted.

    [0079] In some cases, Z and R.sup.1 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a fused 5-membered or 6-membered ring selected from heterocyclylalkyl optionally substituted with 1, 2 or 3 groups selected from R.sup.a and R.sup.b.

    [0080] In one embodiment, wherein Z and R.sup.1 together form a 5-membered or 6-membered ring, the ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together contains one or more additional heteroatoms. In one such embodiment, the ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together is a morpholinyl or piperazinyl ring.

    [0081] In one embodiment, wherein Z and R.sup.1 together form a 5-membered or 6-membered ring, the ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together is fused to an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring, which may be substituted or unsubstituted. In one such embodiment wherein Z and R.sup.1 together form a 5-membered or 6-membered ring, the ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together is fused to an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring, which is substituted with 1, 2 or 3 groups selected from R.sup.a and R.sup.b. In one embodiment wherein a ring formed by Z and R.sup.1 together is fused to an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring, the resulting fused ring system is an indoline ring system.

    [0082] In some embodiments, Z is selected from the group consisting of:

    ##STR00011## ##STR00012##

    [0083] In some cases, features of the G groups can be combined with features of the Z groups. For instance, in some cases the G group shown in formulas (Ia), (Ib), (Ib1), or (Ic) can be combined with the Z group shown in formulas (Id) or (Ie) in any possible combination.

    Additional Aspects

    [0084] As discussed above, each R.sup.d is independently C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.3-8 cycloalkyl. In some cases, R.sup.d is C.sub.1-3 alkyl or C.sub.3-4 cycloalkyl.

    [0085] As discussed above, each R.sup.e is independently C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.3-8 cycloalkyl. In some cases, R.sup.e is C.sub.1-3 alkyl or C.sub.3-4 cycloalkyl.

    [0086] As discussed above, many groups can be substituted with R.sup.a or R.sup.b. Additionally, R.sup.a can be substituted with R.sup.b. In some cases, R.sup.b is a group that includes an R.sup.c group, which can be R.sup.a. In some cases, R.sup.b is a group that includes a R.sup.d group, which is R.sup.a. There can be a limit on the number of times that a substituted is substituted with another substituent. For example, in some cases R.sup.a is not substituted with R.sup.b.

    [0087] In some cases, the size of a group can be limited by specifying the number of non-hydrogen atoms in the group. For example, in some cases Z and its substituents have 6 to 20 non-hydrogen atoms, such as 6 to 16 non-hydrogen atoms or 6 to 12 non-hydrogen atoms. These numbers of non-hydrogen atoms include all levels of substitution. For example, in Compound A-1 shown below in the next section, Z can be interpreted as a phenyl (6 atoms) substituted with an R.sup.a of methyl (1 atom) and R.sup.a of tetrazole (5 atoms), wherein the tetrazole is further substituted with R.sup.b of methyl (1 atom), thereby giving a total non-hydrogen atom could of 6+1+5+1 or 13 atoms. Thus, the methyl on the tetrazole is a second-level substitution of the original Z group of phenyl, but this methyl on tetrazole is still counted towards the number of non-hydrogen atoms for Z.

    [0088] Similarly, in some cases the G group can have a certain number of non-hydrogen atoms, such as 6 to 20 non-hydrogen atoms, 6 to 16 non-hydrogen atoms, or 6 to 12 non-hydrogen atoms. In Compound A-1 of the next section, G is a phenyl group (6 atoms) substituted with an R.sup.a group of methyl (3 atoms) for a total of 9 non-hydrogen atoms in G.

    [0091] Roux and coworkers describe the compounds:

    ##STR00130##

    [0092] as enhancing the ability of certain fungicides to inhibit the growth of different plant-pathogenic fungi. These compounds are referred to herein as Roux compound 1, and Roux compound 13, respectively (Molecular Plant Pathology, 2017, 18(7), 1012-1023; and WO 2016/123191). The present compounds surprisingly enhance the ability of a variety of pesticides against a broad variety of pathogens, including fungal pathogens. In addition, examples of the presently disclosed compound exhibit superior enhancer activity than Roux compounds 1 and 13.

    [0093] The agricultural or horticultural enhancer disclosed herein may be applied to each part of plants, such as leaves, stems, patterns, flowers, buds, fruits, seeds, sprouts, roots, tubers, tuberous roots, shoots, or cuttings. The agricultural or horticultural enhancer according to the present disclosure may also be applied to improved varieties/varieties, cultivars, as well as mutants, hybrids and genetically modified embodiments of these plants.

    [0094] The agricultural or horticultural treatment described herein may be used to conduct seed treatment, foliage application, soil application, or water application, so as to control various diseases occurring in agricultural or horticultural crops, including flowers, lawns, and pastures. occurring in agricultural or horticultural crops, including flowers, lawns, and pastures.

    [0095] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of antimicrobial agents. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with an antimicrobial agent to combat bacterial and viral infection.

    [0096] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of herbicides. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with one or more herbicide to control weeds or other unwanted vegetation.

    [0097] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of insecticides. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with one or more insecticide to control insect infestation.

    [0098] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of acaricides or miticides. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with one or more acaricidal agent to control mites.

    [0099] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of molluscicides. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with one or more molluscicide to prevent interference of slugs or snails with a crop.

    [0100] The present compounds are useful for potentiating the effects of nematocides. For example, the present compounds can be used in combination with one or more nematocide to prevent interference of nematodes with a crop.

    [0101] The present compounds are particularly useful for potentiating the effects of fungicides against plant fungal pathogens. Examples of pathogens treated according to the present disclosure include, without limitation, Botrytis cinerea, Colletotrichum graminicola, Fusarium oxysporum, Sclerotiana sclerotiorum, Verticillium dahlia, Mycospharella gramincola and Sphacelotheca reliana.

    [0102] Botrytis cinerea is an airborne plant pathogen with a necrotrophic lifestyle attacking over 200 crop hosts worldwide. It mainly attacks dicotyledonous plant species, including important protein, oil, fiber and horticultural crops, grapes and strawberries and also Botrytis also causes secondary soft rot of fruits and vegetables during storage, transit and at the market. Many classes of fungicides have failed to control Botrytis cinerea due to its genetic plasticity.

    [0103] The genus Colletotrichum comprises 600 species attacking over 3,200 species of monocot and dicot plants. Colletotrichum graminicola primarily infects maize (Zea mays), causing annual losses of approximately 1 billion dollars in the United States alone (Connell et al., 2012).

    [0104] Fusarium wilt of banana, caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense, is a major threat to banana production worldwide. No fungicides are currently available to effectively control the disease once plants are infected (Peng J et al., 2014).

    [0105] The white mold fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is known to attack more than 400 host species and is considered one of the most prolific plant pathogens. The majority of the affected crop species are dicotyledonous, along with a number of agriculturally significant monocotyledonous plants. Some important crops affected by S. sclerotiorum include legumes (soybean), most vegetables, stone fruits and tobacco.

    [0106] The ascomycete Verticillium dahliae is a soil-borne fungal plant pathogen that causes vascular wilt diseases in a broad range of dicotyledonous host species. V. dahliae can cause severe yield and quality losses in cotton and other important crops such as vegetables, fibers, fruit, nut trees, forest trees and ornamental plants.

    [0107] The ascomycete fungus Mycospharella gramincola (anamorph: Septoria tritici) is one of the most important foliar diseases of wheat leaves, occurring wherever wheat is grown. Yield losses attributed to this disease range from 25%-50%, and are especially high in Europe, the Mediterranean region and East Africa. Infection by M. gramincola is initiated by air borne ascopores produced on residues of last season's crop. Primary infection usually occurs after seedlings emerge in spring or fall. The mature disease is characterized by necrotic lesions on the leaves and stems of infected plants.

    [0108] The basidiomycete fungus Sphacelotheca reliana infects corn (Zea mays) systemically, causing Head Smut. Yield loss attributed to the disease is variable, and is directly dependent on the incidence of the disease. The fungus overwinters as diploid teliospores in crop debris or soil. Floral structures are converted to sori containing masses of powdery teliospores that resemble mature galls of common smut.

    [0109] Examples of crops to be treated and plant diseases (pathogens) to be controlled using the presently disclosed compounds and compositions include, without limitation: Sugar beet: brown spot disease (Cercospora beticola), black root disease (Aphanomyces cochlioides), root rot disease (Thanatephorus cucumeris), leaf rot disease (Thanatephorus cucumeris), and the like.

    Methods for Assessing Enhanced Activity

    Apyrase Inhibition Assay

    [0165] Apyrase inhibitors useful as enhancers of pesticidal activity are assessed using an in vitro assay. The method of Windsor, Bio Techniques 33:1024-1030 (November 2002) was used as follows

    Screen for Apyrase Inhibitors

    [0166] 96 well plates were used for the assay: (Greiner bio-one: REF-655901-96 well, PS, F-bottom, Clear, Non-binding)

    Buffers:

    [0167] Reaction Buffer: 60 mM Hepes; 3 mM MgCl.sub.2, 3 mM CaCl.sub.2) and 3 mM ATP (pH 6.5) [0168] Development Buffer A: 2% aqueous ammonium molybdate [0169] Development Buffer B: 11% ascorbic acid in 37.5% TCA in water [0170] Stop buffer C: 2% trisodium citrate in 2% acetic acid solution in water

    Steps:

    [0171] Add 100 l of reaction buffer to each well. [0172] Add 10 l of DMSO (control) or inhibitor/compound or compounds such as N1915 or orthovanadate to each well. (use inhibitor conc at 1 mM; orthovanadate at 2 mM and N1915 at 1 mM) [0173] Add 10 l of apyrase (concentration based on optimizationDilute 1 U/l enzyme to different concentrations such as 0.1 U, 0.05 U, 0.0025, 0.001 U, 0.0005 Uto find a good range) [0174] Incubate plate at room temperature for 1 hr [0175] Mix development buffer A and B in the ratio of 1:1.5 (just before use).

    Method 2: In Vitro Assessment of Combination Activity

    [0180] Selected compounds are assessed in combination with fungicides against a range of commercially important plant pathogenic fungi.

    [0181] The test is conducted as follows. A fungicide is applied to a fungal plant pathogen at a rate slightly below that at which it gave any control, in combination with a suitable dose of the test compound. The test compounds are recorded as active if control of the pathogen was observed.

    [0182] In more detail, the test is conducted as follows. For each combination of fungicide, pathogen and test compound, the following wells are used. Well 1 contains a fungal pathogen growing on agar, and a fungicide at a rate just below that at which it gave any control of the pathogen. Well 2 is the same as Well 1, except that the test compound is also added at Rate 1. Well 3 is the same as Well 2, except that the test compound is added at Rate 2, where Rate 2 is higher than Rate 1. Finally, as a benchmark, Well 4 is the same as Well 1, except that it contained the fungicide at a higher rate, at which it gave partial control of the pathogen. Each of the Wells 1 to 4 are run in duplicate, giving a total of 8 wells for each combination of fungicide, pathogen and test compound. For each well, after a suitable period of incubation, a visual assessment of the % control of the pathogen by the fungicide is made. Test compounds are scored as inactive, active or highly active.

    [0183] The following fungicides are used in this assay: azoxystrobin, fluxapyroxad, and desthio prothioconazole. The following fungal pathogens are used in this assay: First, a strain of Zymoseptoria tritici with a reduced susceptibility to strobilurin fungicides; second a strain of Zymoseptoria tritici with a reduced susceptibility to SDHI fungicides (i.e., those that inhibit succinate dehydrogenase); and third, Microdochium nivale. In this assay, Roux Compound 13 exhibited activity in only one combination, enhancing the activity of azoxystrobin against Microdochium nivale, but failing to enhance activity of any fungicide against either of the Zymoseptoria tritici strains. In contrast, compounds of the present disclosure are effective in the combination assay, enhancing fungicidal activity of one or more fungicides against at least one strain.

    Method 3: Greenhouse Crop Tests

    [0184] In this method, exemplary compounds were evaluated for their ability to control Brown Rust (Puccinia recondita) on wheat in a controlled greenhouse environment in combination with one of four fungicides, Amistar, Imtrex, Proline or Balaya. In these studies, wheat plants (JB Diego) were used. Seeds were sown in 9 cm diameter pots to a depth of 1 to 2 cm using Petersfield potting compost (75% medium grade peat, 12% screened sterilized loam, 3% medium grade vermiculite, 10% grit (5 mm screened, lime free), 1.5 kg PG mix per m3, lime to pH5.5-6.0 and wetting agent (Vitax Ultrawet 200 ml per m3) and germinated/grown at 23 C under a 16 h day/8 h night light regime. Plants were treated two to three weeks after sowing when they were at the BBCH 11 growth stage (first pair of true leaves (unifoliate) unfolded). Wheat plants were inoculated with Puccinia triticina (Brown rust) 24 hours after treatment. A track sprayer was used to treat the plants with the mixture of commercial fungicide and test compound using a water volume of 200 L/ha. Four replicates were used for each combination of fungicide, pathogen and test compound. Each plant was evaluated at fourteen days (once the disease symptoms were fully expressed) for % control of the disease. Appropriate controls were used for all experiments, including an inoculation check wherein plants were inoculated with their specific pathogen to assess disease levels. Also, each commercial fungicide was tested on its own as a part of each treatment, this being benchmark against which the experimental compounds were evaluated. Exemplary compounds demonstrated enhanced disease control in combination with fungicides as compared to disease control observed with fungicide alone. That is, the present compounds, although not fungicidal by themselves, enhance the activity of fungicides, thus the enhancer compounds work synergistically in combination with fungicides to control disease. [0185] Amistar (0.04 L/ha) [0186] Imtrex (0.45 L/ha) [0187] Proline (0.15 L/ha) [0188] Balaya (0.25 L/ha)

    Method 4: Enhancement of Herbicide Activity

    [0189] This method demonstrates the enhancement of herbicidal activity provided by the present compounds. Specifically, Amaranthus retroflexus (pigweed) was treated pre-emergence with metribuzin alone or in combination with an enhancer compound disclosed herein. Fifteen seeds of Amaranthus retroflexus were sown in soil in each pot and then sprayed with a mixture of metribuzin at the appropriate rate shown in Table 5 and the compound of this invention at 100 g/ha using a track sprayer at a water volume of 200 L/hectare. Small amounts of acetone were used to aid solubility. The pots were watered immediately after sowing and treatment and then allowed to stand in a glasshouse. Assessment of kill was made seven and fourteen days after treatment. The test included four replicates for each treatment and the control. Results are shown in Table 5. Exemplary compounds A-62, A-8, A-29, A-3, A-108, A-34, A-21, A-59 and A-103 demonstrated significant enhancement of metribuzin herbicidal activity at seven and fourteen days.

    Methods of Making Enhancer Compounds

    [0190] Exemplary enhancer compounds were purchased from commercial suppliers, such as Enamine, located at Industriepark Hoechst, G837. 65926 Frankfurt am Main Germany. Other compounds were prepared consistent with the methods set forth below:

    Synthesis of Compounds

    [0191] Compounds of the present disclosure can be synthesized according to the scheme shown below. Specifically, an aryl sulfonyl chloride can be allowed to react with the amine NHR.sup.1R.sup.2 to give the required sulfonamide. The R group on the aryl ring can have various forms and variations. In some cases, the aryl ring can be substituted with an R group at the ortho or meta position, or substituted with multiple R groups at multiple positions.

    ##STR00131## [0192] wherein: [0193] n and m are each independently 0, 1, 2, or 3, provided that n plus m is less than or equal to 3.

    [0194] R.sup.a and R.sup.b are as described herein. In some cases R.sup.a is phenyl, alkyl, heteroaryl, or cycloalkyl.

    [0195] Such syntheses are reported in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2022, 65, 15710-15724; Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2020, 30, 127650; and Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2004, 47, 4979-4982.

    [0196] Many sulfonyl chloride (SO.sub.2Cl) starting compounds that can be used in the above scheme are commercially available, or can be chemically synthesized from commercially available compounds. For example, the compound 4-biphenylsulfonyl chloride (CAS number 1623-93-4) is an exemplary starting material where m is 0, n is 1, and the one R.sup.a group is phenyl. 4-biphenylsulfonyl chloride is commercially sold by more than 60 chemical suppliers.
