Abstract

Abstract A method of aiding in harvesting fruit wherein abscission is induced by application to the fruit bearing plant of an effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR1## or a salt thereof, wherein R 1 is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkenyl, phenylalkyl or furyl, R 2 is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, carboxy, carbalkoxy, carbanilido, heterocyclic or a group ##STR2## in which R 1 ' has the same meanings as R 1 , n is an integer from 0 to 3, and wherein R 1 and R 2 when taken together form a C 3 -C 12 ring and R 3 and R 4 represent hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkylcarbonyl, phenylcarbonyl, N-alkylcarbamoyl, N-alkylthiocarbamoyl, N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl, phenylcarbamoyl, phenylalkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, phenoxycarbonyl, phenylalkoxycarbonyl, alkylthiocarbonyl, phenylthiocarbonyl, α-furyl and tetrahydropyranyl.
