Fungicidally and bactericidally active thiocarbamates of the formula: ##STR1## where R.sup.1 represents a methyl, methoxy, halo or trifluoromethyl group; R.sup.2 represents hydrogen, a methyl, methoxy, chloro or nitro group; R.sup.3 represents hydrogen or a methoxy group; and R.sup.4 is an ortho- or para-hydroxy group. The compounds find particular use as slimicides and as preservatives for various industrial preparations.

Antibacterial and fungicidal S-phenylthiocarbamates

Fungicidally and bactericidally active compounds of the formula ##SPC1## Where R is allyl, cyclohexyl, naphthyl and preferably, ##SPC2## Where R.sub.1 is methoxy, ethoxy, methylthio, ethoxycarbonyl; R.sub.2 is H, methoxy, chloro, methyl, nitro; R.sub.3 is H, chloro. The compounds are used as fungistats and bacteriostats in soap and shampoo formulations and as preservatives in various industrial preparations. Certain di-8-quinolyl esters of arylenedicarbamic acid and poly(8-quinolyl esters) of carbanilic acid are found to possess activity against bacteria and fungi.

Fungicidal 8-quinolyl carbanilates

Antibacterial and germicidal detergent compositions contain as an active ingredient N,N-dialkylthiocarbamoyl sulfenamides of the formula ##EQU1## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represent lower alkyl groups, both R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are cyclohexyl or R.sup.3 is hydrogen when R.sup.4 is phenyl and compounds where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 as well as R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 form a heterocyclic ring, particularly morpholine. The active compounds are particularly useful as skin substantive bacteriostats in soap and shampoo formulations and as germicides in cosmetic and toilet preparations.
