Abstract 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, C 2 -C 6 -alkenyl, C 2 -C 6 -alkinyl or C 3 -C 6 -cycloalkyl, R 1 is C 1 -C 6 -alkoxycarbonyl, aminocarbonyl, C 1 -C 8 -alkylaminocarbonyl, C 3 -C 6 -cycloalkylaminocarbonyl, di-C 1 -C 8 -alkylaminocarbonyl, cyclohexylmethylaminocarbonyl, alkoxyalkylaminocarbonyl, morpholinocarbonyl, pyrrolidinocarbonyl, piperidinocarbonyl or cyano, and n is 0.1 or 2. The compounds where n is 1 or 2 have both a high fungicidal and nematocidal activity. The compounds in which n is 0 are the starting products or intermediate products in making the compound in which a sulfonyl or sulfinyl group is present (n=1 or 2) but have also nematocidal properties of their own. All compounds of the invention avoid the undesirable environmental properties and other shortcomings of the prior art products, particularly those of the broadly used mercury compounds.
A composition having fungicidal and nematocidal activity comprising as active agent 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula ##STR7## wherein R is C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, C 2 -C 6 -Alkenyl, C 2 -C 6 -Alkinyl or C 3 -C 6 -Cycloalkyl, R 1 is C 1 -C 6 -alkoxycarbonyl, aminocarbonyl, C 1 -C 8 -alkylaminocarbonyl, C 3 -C 6 -cycloalkylaminocarbonyl, di-C 1 -C 8 alkylaminocarbonyl, cyclohexylmethylaminocarbonyl, methoxy-C 2 -C 3 -alkylaminocarbonyl, morpholinocarbonyl, pyrrolidinocarbonyl, piperidinocarbonyl or cyano, and n is 0, 1 or 2, in an amount of about 1 to 95% by weight and a liquid or solid carrier material in an amount of about 99 to 5% by weight which carrier material may be replaced in an amount up to 20% by weight by a surface active agent.
