Abstract

Abstract This disclosure describes novel aralkyl imidazoles, their acid addition salts, their metal complex salts and processes for their preparation. These compounds possess biological activity and in particular are useful as systemic protectant/eradicant fungicidal agents for controlling plant diseases caused by fungi and as plant growth regulators. The metal complex salts of these compounds are particularly useful in their ability to reduce undesirable plant growth regulatory activity and phytotoxicity while retaining their ability for controlling plant diseases caused by fungi.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A compound of the formula ##STR49## wherein Z is [(C 6 -C 14 )aryl or (C 6 -C 14 )aryl] phenyl, naphthyl, biphenyl, acenaphthenyl, indanyl, furyl or thienyl or phenyl substituted with up to three substituents selected from the group consisting of chloro, fluoro, bromo, iodo, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy, nitro, amino, methylthio and trihalomethyl; R 1 and R 2 taken together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form (C 3 -C 8 ) cycloalkyl; A and B are divalent (C 1 -C 5 )alkylene groups; X is (C 1 -C 4 ) alkyl, halogen or nitro; a is 0 to 3; n is 0 or 1; n' is 0 or 1; and n plus n' is 1 or 2 and the agronomically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A compound of the formula ##STR49## wherein Z is [(C 6 -C 14 )aryl or (C 6 -C 14 )aryl] phenyl, naphthyl, biphenyl, acenaphthenyl, indanyl, furyl or thienyl or phenyl substituted with up to three substituents selected from the group consisting of chloro, fluoro, bromo, iodo, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy, nitro, amino, methylthio and trihalomethyl; R 1 and R 2 taken together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form (C 3 -C 8 ) cycloalkyl; A and B are divalent (C 1 -C 5 )alkylene groups; X is (C 1 -C 4 ) alkyl, halogen or nitro; a is 0 to 3; n is 0 or 1; n' is 0 or 1; and n plus n' is 1 or 2 and the agronomically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
A method for controlling phytopathogenic fungi which comprises applying to a plant, to plant seeds or to the plant habitat on effective amount of a compound of claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein the compound is applied to the plant or plant habitat at a rate of 0.1 to 50 lbs. per acre.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
