This invention relates to novel imidazole and triazole substituted oxathiolane compounds and compositions containing said compounds having fungicidal and plant growth regulant activity and methods for preparing same.

Substituted oxathiolanes

A compound having the structural formula ##STR1## where

Azole derivatives of spiroheterocycles

A compound having the structural formula ##STR1## where R is at least one of hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, halogen, cyano, phenyl, phenoxy, benzyl or COOR.sup.1 ; and R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl is disclosed. A composition comprising a growth regulant effective amount of the compound and a carrier therefor is also set forth. In addition, a process for regulating plant growth comprising applying a plant growth regulant effective amount of the compound to the locus of the plant whose growth is to be regulated is taught.

Dioxo heterocyclic compounds, composition containing same and process

A method is disclosed for inhibiting the growth of plants by application of a compound having the formula: ##STR1## R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl,

Substituted tetrazolinones for plant growth inhibition

A compound having the structural formula ##STR1## where R is C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 alkylene having 2 to 4 carbon atoms linking X and Y;

Substituted tetrazolinones exhibit usefulness as herbicides and plant growth regulators.

Substituted tetrazolinones and their use as herbicides

The invention relates to compounds useful as fungicides and plant growth regulants represented by the formula ##STR1## in which: R is a substituent or a group of substituents representing halogen, low alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenoxy, substituted phenoxy, naphthyl, nitro, cyano, low alkoxy, alkoxycarbonyl, or trifluoromethyl;

Azole derivatives of naphthalenone oxime ethers

Preparation of substituted tetrazolinones

Substituted tetrazolinones exhibit usefulness as pre-emergent herbicides, post-emergent herbicides and plant growth regulators.

A method of stimulating the growth of desirable plants comprising applying a plant growth stimulatory amount of certain 2-methylhalide or 2-methylthiophosphate substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole compounds.

Method of stimulating the growth of plants employing substituted

A compound of the formula ##STR1## where Z and Z.sup.1 are the same or different and are oxygen, sulfur, SO, SO.sub.2, or NR.sup.3 ; except that Z and Z.sup.1 are not simultaneously oxygen, also, if Z or Z.sup.1 is sulfur then the other of Z and Z.sup.1 cannot be NR.sup.3 ; Y is nitrogen or CH; R is linear or branched C.sub.2 -C.sub.12 alkylene; R.sup.1 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, benzyl or phenyl; R.sup.2 is phenyl, phenoxy, phenylthio, phenylsulfinyl, phenylsulfonyl, phenylamino, benzyl, phenoxy substituted with halo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, nitro, cyano, trihalomethyl or mono-, di- or trihalomethoxy or phenyl substituted with halo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, nitro, cyano, trihalomethyl or mono-, di- or trihalomethoxy; and R.sup.3 is hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, is disclosed. A process for forming this compound is also taught. In the process a substituted azole compound of the formula ##STR2## where Y, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the meanings given above, is reacted with a compound having the formula

Substituted imidazoles and triazoles

The invention relates to compounds useful as fungicides and plant growth regulants represented by the formula ##STR1## in which: R is a substituent or a group of substituents representing halogen, lower alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenoxy, substituted phenoxy, naphthyl, nitro, cyano, lower alkoxy, alkoxycarbonyl, or trifluoromethyl;
