BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

5 The present invention relates to an industrial microbicidal or microbistatic agent and a method of killing microbes or inhibiting the growth of microbes for industrial use. More particularly, it relates to an industrial mi- crobicidal or microbistatic agent and also to a method of killing microbes or inhibiting the growth of microbes for industrial use which is effective for antiseptic, microbicidal or microbistatic treatment of water used in the paper manufacturing steps in paper and pulp industries; waterfor cooling and for washing in various industries; 10 fuel oil sludge; metal working fluid; textile oil; paint; antifouling paint; coating color for paper; latex; adhesive; etc.

2. Description of the Prior Art

15 Slimes generated due to the growth of bacteria and/or fungi in cooling water and process water of the pa- per/pulp industry or various industries deteriorate a quality of products and efficiency of production. Further, in various industrial products, such as heavy oil sludges, cutting fluids, textile oils, paints, various latices and sizings, putrefaction and contamination occur due to the growth of bacteria and/or fungi which reduce their value. 20 For the prevention of such problems caused by microorganisms, many microbicides have been used. Pre- viously, organomercury compounds and chlorinated phenols were used for this purpose. However, the use of these compounds is to be regulated, because they have a strong toxicity to the human body, fish and shellfish and may cause environmental pollution. Lately, organonitrogen-sulfur compounds such as methylenebisthiocyanate, 1,2-benzoisothiazolin-3-one 25 and 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, organobromine compounds such as 2,2-dibromo-2-nitroethanol, 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide, 1 ,2-bis(bromoacetoxy)ethane, 1 ,4-bis(bromoacetoxy)-2-butene and bis(tribromomethyl)sulfone and organosulfur compounds such as 4,5-dichloro-1,2-dithiol-3-one which have relatively low toxicity, are practically used [see BOKIN-BOKABI-JITEN (Dictionary of Antibacterial and Antifun- gal Agent) published by The Society for Antibacterial and Antifungal Agents, Japan, 1986; Japanese Laid-Open 30 Patent Publication Nos. (HEI) 3-170404/1991, 3-83902/1991 and 3-167101/1991]. It is reported that dichloroglyoxime can inhibit the growth of representative gram-negative and gram- positive bacteria, but its homologues such as glyoxime and dimethylglyoxime do not exert such inhibition (Dir- asat, 13(7), 185-188(1986)). However, it is not known that monohaloglyoxime shows more potent microbicidal property than dihalo- 35 glyoxime and the combination use of monohaloglyoxime and dihaloglyoxime and of such glyoxime derivatives and known industrial microbicides can expect synergistic microbicidal effects.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

40 The present invention provides an industrial microbicide which comprises as an effective ingredient at least one haloglyoxime derivative of the formula (I'):

' ' 45 Z -0-N=C-C=N-0- Z I I (I') X Y

wherein X is a halogen atom; Y is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon so atoms; and Z' is a hydrogen atom or an optionally halogenated lower alkanoyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; provided thatZ' is an optionally halogenated lower alkanoyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms when Y is a ha- logen atom, and optionally a carrier or diluent. The present invention also provides an industrial microbicide which comprises: at least one haloglyoxime derivative of the formula (I):

2 EP 0 571 313 A2

Z-0-N=C-C=N-0-Z I I X Y

wherein X is a halogen atom; Y is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon w atoms; and Z is a hydrogen atom or an optionally halogenated lower alkanoyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; and at least one known industrial microbicidal ingredient selected from the group consisting of an organo- nitrogensulfur compound, an organohalogen compound, an organonitrogen compound and an organosulfur compound, as an effective ingredient, and optionally a carrier or diluent. 15 Further, the present invention provides a method for killing microbes for industrial use by adding a micro- bicidal effective amount of a haloglyoxime derivative (I') to an industrial medium. The present invention also provides a method for killing microbes for industrial use by adding a microbicidal effective amount of each of a haloglyoxime derivative (I) and a known industrial microbicidal ingredient simul- taneously or separately to an industrial medium. 20 PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms represented by Y in the above formulae (I') and (I) in- cludes methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, t-butyl, etc. Among those, methyl is preferred. 25 The lower alkanoyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms represented by Z' and Z in the above formulae (I') and (I) includes acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, etc. Among The halogen atom represented by X and Y in the above formulae (I') and (I) includes chlorine, bromine, fluorine and iodine. Among those, chlorine is preferred. The halogen atom in the optionally halogenated lower alkanoyl group represented by Z' and Z is also defined as the same above. 30 Examples of the haloglyoxime derivatives shown by the above formulae (I') and (I) include monohaloglyox- imes such as monochloroglyoxime, monobromoglyoxime, monofluoroglyoxime, monoiodoglyoxime, 1-chloro- 2-methylglyoxime, 1-chloro-2-ethylglyoxime, 1-chloro-2-propylglyoxime, 1-chloro-2-butylglyoxime, 1-bromo- 2-methylglyoxime, 1-bromo-2-ethylglyoxime, 1-bromo-2-propylglyoxime, 1-bromo-2-butylglyoxime, 1-fluoro- 2-methylglyoxime, 1-fluoro-2-ethylglyoxime, 1-fluoro-2-propylglyoxime, 1-fluoro-2-butylglyoxime, 1-iodo-2- 35 methylglyoxime, 1-iodo-2-ethylglyoxime, 1-iodo-2-propylglyoxime, 1-iodo-2-butylglyoxime, etc; dihaloglyox- ime such as dichloroglyoxime, dibromoglyoxime, difluoroglyoxime, diiodoglyoxime, etc; and dihaloglyoxime diacylates such as dichloroglyoxime diacetate, dichloroglyoxime dipropionate, dichloroglyoxime di-n-butyrate, dichloroglyoxime di-iso-butyrate, dichloroglyoxime bis(chloroacetate), etc. Among those, monochloroglyox- ime, 1-chloro-2-methylglyoxime, dichloroglyoxime and dichloroglyoxime dipropionate are preferable. 40 The monohaloglyoximes as mentioned above can be easily synthesized by halogenation of glyoxime. The dihaloglyoximes can be obtained by further halogenation of the monohaloglyoxime. The dihaloglyoxime diacylates can be synthesized by acylation of the dihaloglyoxime in accordance with a known method. For example, dihaloglyoxime diacylate can be prepared by reacting dihaloglyoxime with a carboxylic acid anhydride in the presence of an acidic catalyst, or with a carboxylic acid chloride in the presence 45 of triethylamine. The haloalkylglyoxime can be synthesized by reacting an alkylglyoxal with hydroxylamine to form alkyl- glyoxime and then halogenating the resulting alkylglyoxime. The microbicide of the present invention can exhibit a significant microbicidal effect even in an industrial medium containing a reducing agent equal to or more than 5mg/l in term of sulfite ion. so Also, the present invention provides an industrial microbicide comprising the haloglyoxime derivative (I') or (I) and a known industrial microbicidal ingredient. The combined use would be effective in broadening anti- bacterial spectra and developing the additive or synergistic effect of antimicrobicidal activities.

In case of simultaneous use of monohaloglyoxime and di- haloglyoxime, the separate preparation containing each of the ingredients can be used if they are synthesized in different processes and the single pack preparation can be used if they are synthesized as a mixture. 55 The suitable mixing ratio of the haloglyoxime derivative (I) to the known industrial microbicidal ingredient is from 20:1 to 1:20 and, preferably, from 10:1 to 1:10. Further, when three ingredients, i.e., the monohaloglyoxime, the dihaloglyoxime and the known industrial microbicide are combined, the suitable mixing ratio of the monohaloglyoxime and dihaloglyoxime to the known industrial mocrobicide is from 1:50 to 20:1, preferably from 1:10 to 10:1. 4 EP 0 571 313 A2

When the above microbicidal ingredients are combined, it is preferable to formulate in the form of liquid preparation, particularly in an aqueous preparation. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. De- pending upon the subject to be applied, other forms such as powder may be used. 5 When the formulation is to be used in an industrial water system, such as in paper making process water or industrial cooling water, the preparation preferably may be prepared by a known method with use of liquid carriers such as water or hydrophilic organic solvents and optionally a surfactant is added. Examples of the hydrophilic organic solvents are amides, such as N,N-dimethylformamide; glycols such as , propylene glycol, diethylene glycol and dipropylene glycol; glycol ethers such as methyl 10 cellosolve, phenyl cellosolve, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether and tripropylene glycol monomethyl ether; alcohols having up to 8 carbon atoms; esters such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, 3-metoxybutyl acetate, 2-ethoxymethyl acetate, 2-ethoxyethyl acetate and propylenecarbonate. The above hydrophilic organic solvent can be used in combination with water. The suitable surfacactants include cationic, anionic, nonionic or bifunctional surfactants. Preferable sur- 15 factant is nonionic surfactant becasue of its stability for the preparation. Examples of the nonionic surfactants include higher ethylene oxide adducts (hereinafter ethylene oxide is referred to E.O.), alkylphenol-E.O. adducts, fatty acid-E.O. adducts, fatty acid polyhydric alcohol ester- E.O. adducts, higher alkyl -E.O. adducts, fatty acid amide-E.O. adducts, fat and oil-E.O. adducts, pro- pylene oxide (hereinafter referred to P.O.)-E.O. copolymers, alkylamine-P.O.-E.O. copolymer adducts, fatty 20 acid esters, fatty acid pentaerythritol esters, fatty acid sorbitan esters, fatty acid sucrose esters, poly- hydric alcohol alkyl ethers and alkylolamides. The preparation of the present invention preferably comprises 1 to 50 parts by weight of the total prepa- ration of the active ingredients, preferably from 5 to 30 parts by weight, at least 0.01 parts by weight of the surfactant per active ingredient and the balance being the hydrophilic organic solvent. 25 For an oil medium such as heavy oil sludge, cutting oil or oily paint, a single-pack liquid preparation is for- mulated with a hydrocarbon solvent such as kerosene, heavy oil and spindle oil, and optionally containing the above-mentioned surfactant. To the medium in which the active ingredients of the present invention can be directly dissolved or dis- persed, the active ingredients may be added directly or in the form of powdery preparation which is diluted 30 with a solid diluent or carrier (e.g. kaolin, clay, bentonite, CMC, etc.) and optionally contains the surfactants. The preparation may be prepared by blending the active ingredients and solid diluents or carriers without sol- vents and surfactants depending on the combination of the active ingredients. The suitable use amount of the microbicide of the present invention depends on the industrial medium to be added. In particular, to papermaking process water or industrial cooling water, the addition of about 0.05 35 to 20 mg/l as the total active ingredients concentration in the water will be sufficient for inhibiting the growth of microbes (bacteriostatic concentration) and the addition of 0.1 to 50 mg/l will achieve a microbicidal effect. In case of simultaneous use of the above active ingredients, the above mentioned single-pack preparation is convenient to the method according to the present invention. However, if separate storage or separate ad- dition is preferable upon circumstances, for example in case of keeping the stability for a long time, the separate 40 preparations containing each of the active ingredients may be used. Thus, the present invention provides a method of killing microbes for industrial use by adding the above active ingredients simultaneously or separately to an industrial medium. Generally, when the active ingredients are added separately, it is convenient to formulate in the form of liquid preparation. The preparation may be formulated by adding the above-mentioned organic solvent or sur- 45 factant. In the above method, the amount (concentration) of the active ingredients to be added and the mixing ratio of the haloglyoxime derivatives to the known industrial microbicidal ingredients depend on the type and the quantity of the microorganisms to be treated and on the type of the industrial microbicidal ingredients. They may be defined by taking the amount and mixing ratio described above into consideration. 50 [Examples]

Now, the present invention is described in detail with reference to synthetic examples, formulation exam- ples, test examples and comparative examples as follows. 55 Synthetic Example 1: Synthesis of glyoxime

Hydroxylamine sulfate (32.8g) was dissolved in 70ml of water to which 29.0g of 40% glyoxal solution were dropwise added. Next, 40% sodium hydroxide solution was added thereto to neutralize. After 30 minutes, the 5 EP 0 571 313 A2

precipitated white crystals were recrystallized from water to give 10.6g of the title compound (m.p. 178°C).

Synthetic Example 2: Synthsis of chloroglyoxime and dichloroglyoxime

Glyoxime (8.8g) obtained in synthetic example 1 was dissolved in 100ml of . Then, chlorine gas was gradually blown thereto maintaining the temperature at 10 to 12°C. Upon examination of the resulting product by HPLC, it shows that chloroglyoxime is produced (reaction A), followed by the formation of dichloroglyoxime (reaction B).

HO-N=C-C=N-OH > HO-N=C-C=N-OH ^ HO-N=C-C=N-OH II Cl2 || Cl2 || H H H CI CI CI (reaction A) (reaction B)

The reaction was ceased at the reaction A stage and the solvent was removed. The residue was recrys- tallized from water, affording white crystals of chloroglyoxime (m.p. 156°C, yield: 36%). Also, the reaction was stopped at the reaction B stage. The solvent was removed and the residue was recrystallized from ethanol, affording white crystals of dichloroglyoxime (m.p. 199°C, yield: 55%).

Synthetic Example 3: Synthesis of dichloroglyoxime diacetate

The mixture of 2.0g (0.0127mol) of dichloroglyoxime (Compound No.6), 20ml of dichloroethane and 2.4g (0.0306mol) of acetyl chloride was stirred in an ice bath. To the mixture, triethylamine (3.1g, 0.0307mol) was added dropwise, followed by stirring for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was washed twice with 1 5ml of water. The dichloroethane solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, to obtain white crystals of dichloro- glyoxime diacetate (Compound No.2, yield: 30%). Compounds Nos.3 to 5 were prepared in the same way, except for using the corresponding acid chloride. Table 1 shows structural formulae and physical properties of the products.

Test Example 13: (Evaluation of Bacteriostatic Effect on White Water from Papermaking Mill (No.3))

Test water prepared in the test example 12 was used. Bouillon medium was added to the test water. The mixture was put to a previouly sterilized L shaped test tube, to which a definite amount of microbidical ingredient was added and shaken at 30 °C. Then, the absor- bance at 660 nm was measured every 1 hour. The time (t) from the initiation of the measurement until an in- crease in absorbance by growth of the microorganisms exceeded 0.1 was measured. The time T showing the inhibition of the growth of microbes is calculated by the formula as follows: T = tx - t0 wherein t0 is a time (t) when no ingredient is added and tx is a time (t) when x mg of ingredients are added. The result is shown in Tables 30 to 33.

Test Example 15: (Evaluation of Bacteriostatic Effect on White Water from Papermaking Mill (No.1))

White water sampled from a papermaking mill (VII) was filtered through No. 2 filter paper to prepare test 40 water (Paper: cardboard, pH: 6.0, S032": 20 mg/l, viable cell number: 1.1 x 108cfu/ml, microoganism: Pseudo- monas, Flavobacterium, Alcaligenes and Bacillus spieces). Bouillon medium was added to the test water. The mixture was put to a previouly sterilized L shaped test tube, to which bacteriostatic ingredient in the amount of 1 .5 mg/l was added and cultivated under shaking at 30 °C. Then, the absorbance at 660 nm was measured every 1 hour. The time (t) from the initiation of the meas- 45 urement until an increase in the absorbance by growth of the microoganisms exceeded 0.1 was measured. The time T showing the inhibition of the growth of microbes is calculated by the formula as follows: T = tx - t0 wherein t0 is a time (t) when no ingredient is added and tx is a time (t) when x mg of ingredients are added. The result is shown in Table 35. 50
