Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to etherified lactate esters of formula (I), in which R represents alkyl and RI an alkoxylated alkyl radical and to the use thereof for enhancing the effect of plant protecting agents.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An etherified lactate ester of the formula (I) wherein R is 2-ethylhexyl or lauryl, and R 1 is an alkoxylated alkyl radical of the formula -(-AO) m —R′, where AO is an ethylene oxide radical (EO), a propylene oxide radial (PO), a butylene oxide radical (BO), or mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide radicals or mixtures of ethylene oxide and butylene oxide radicals, and m is a number from 2 to 20, R′ is hydrogen. 2. The etherified lactate ester as claimed in claim 1 , wherein R is 2-ethylhexyl, or lauryl, R 1 is an alkoxylated alkyl radical of the formula -(-AO) m —R′, where AO is an ethylene oxide radical, a propylene oxide radical, a butylene oxide radical, or mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide radicals, and m is a number from 2 to 15, R′ is hydrogen. 3. The etherified lactate ester as claimed in claim 1 , wherein R is lauryl, R 1 is -(-AO) m —R′, where R′ is hydrogen and -(-AO) m is selected from the group consisting of the following alkoxylate radicals: -(EO) 5 —(PO) 2 , -(EO) 5 —(PO) 5 , -(EO) 8 -(PO) 2 , -(EO) 8 -(PO) 5 . 4. The etherified lactate ester as claimed in claim 1 , wherein R is ethylhexyl, R 1 is -(-AO) m —R′, where R′ is hydrogen and -(-AO) m is selected from the group consisting of the following alkoxylate radicals: -(EO) 2 —(PO) 2 , -(EO) 2 —(PO) 5 , -(EO) 2 —(PO) 10 , -(EO) 2 , -(EO) 5 , -(EO) 10 , -(EO) 15 . 5. An etherified lactate ester of the formula (I) wherein R is 2-ethylhexyl, R 1 is an alkoxylated alkyl radical of the formula -(-AO) m —R′, where AO is an ethylene oxide radical, m is 10, and R′ is hydrogen.
