Abstract

Abstract Fungicidal compositions comprising as an active ingredient a compound of the general formula I ##STR1## wherein either R 1 or R 2 is the group ##STR2## in which X is an oxygen atom or a sulphur atom and R 5 is straight chain alkyl group of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, branched chain alkyl group of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, cyclic alkyl group of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, alkenyl group, alkynyl group, hydroxyalkyl group phenyl group or a mono-, di- or tri- substituted phenyl group with substituents, which may be the same or different, chosen from the group consisting hydrogen alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, phenyl, halogen, trifluoromethyl, thiocyanate, nitro, cyano, amino, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, N-alkylcarbamoyl and N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl; when R 1 is the group ##STR3## then R 3 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl alkynyl, hydroxyalkyl, phenyl, CH 2 CF 3 or the group --CH 2 COOR 6 wherein R 6 is alkyl, phenyl or substituted phenyl, and R 2 and R 4 , which may be the same or different, are hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, hydroxalkyl, alkoxy, phenyl, halogen, trifluoromethyl, thiocyanate, nitro, cyano, amino, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, N,alkylcarbamoyl, N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl, hydroxy or mercapto provided that R 2 and R 4 are not both hydrogen, hydroxy or mercapto; when R 2 is the group ##STR4## then R 3 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, hydroxyalkyl, phenyl or substituted phenyl, and R 1 and R 4 , which may be the same or different, are hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, phenyl, substituted phenyl, halogen, trifluoromethyl, thiocyanate, nitro, cyano, amino, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, N-alkylcarbamoyl, N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl, hydroxy or mercapto, provided that R 1 and R 3 are not both hydrogen and provided that R 1 and R 4 are not both hydroxy or mercapto; and an inert carrier material therefor.
