The present disclosure is related to the field of agrochemicals, including profungicides of UK-2A and their use to control Black Sigatoka.
1. A method of treating a plant, comprising the steps of:
contacting at least one portion of a plant with a composition including a compound of Formula I:
wherein M is selected from —R1, —C(O)R1, —C(O)OR1, —C(S)OR1, —C(O)N(R1)R2, —CH2C(O)R1, —CH2OC(O)R1, —CH2C(S)OR1, —CH2C(O)N(R1)R2 —CH2OR1, —CH2SR1, —CH2P(O)2OR1, —Si(R1)3, —S(O)2OR1, P(O)2OR1;
R1 is alkyl or arylalkyl; and
R2 is alkyl or arylalkyl,
wherein the plant has been or is at risk for being exposed to a plant pathogen, and wherein the plant pathogen is Mycosphaerella fijiensis ; and
wherein the compound of Formula I is present in the composition at a concentration of about 50 to about 1000 ppm.
2. A method of treating a plant, comprising the steps of:
contacting an area adjacent to a plant with a composition including a compound of Formula I:
wherein M is selected from —R1, —C(O)R1, —C(O)OR1, —C(S)OR1, —C(O)N(R1)R2, —CH2C(O)R1, —CH2OC(O)R1, —CH2C(S)OR1, —CH2C(O)N(R1)R2 —CH2OR1, —CH2SR1, —CH2P(O)2OR1, —Si(R1)3, —S(O)2OR1, P(O)2OR1;
R 1 is alkyl or arylalkyl; and
R 2 is alkyl or arylalkyl,
wherein the plant has been or is at risk for being exposed to a plant pathogen, and wherein the pathogen is Mycosphaerella fijiensis ; and
wherein the compound of Formula I is present in the composition at a concentration of about 50 to about 1000 ppm.
