When used in admixture with mancozeb, chlorothalonil, a copper salt, folpet, fluazinam or cymoxanil (this being possible for the latter to be used also together with one of the other five components), metalaxyl having a high R-enantiomer content of more than 70% by weight, or pure R-metalaxyl, exhibits a markedly increased fungicidal action against plant diseases as compared with a similar mixture in which metalaxyl is used in the form of the racemate.

Fungicidal compositions based on (N-phenylacetyl-N-2,6-XYLYL)methyl alaninate

There are described compounds exerting an antidotal activity belonging to the classes of the 2-thiazolines-2-substituted and 2-oxazolines-2-substituted, useful in the defense of agrarian cultivations from the toxic action of non-selective herbicides. Utilization and preparation methods thereof are described as well.

Compounds exerting an antidotal activity for the defense of agrarian

This invention relates to novel compounds having antidotal activity so as to be useful in the protection of cultivations of agrarian interest from the toxic action of non-selective weed-killers. The novel compounds of this invention have the formula: ##STR1## wherein R=alkyl, phenyl; R.sup.1 =OR.sup.4 =alkyl, cycloalkyl, cyclohexylmethyl, allyl, propargyl, phenyl or benzyl, optionally substituted; R.sup.2 =H or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together form a bond between carbonyl and the nitrogen atom which they are linked to; X=O, S; R.sup.3 is the same are R.sup.4, but is different from 3,5-dichlorophenyl.

Compounds with antidotal activity for the defense of cultivations of

A method of protecting useful cultivations from the toxic action of nonselective herbicides, consisting in using, as antidotes, 2- or 4-thiazolidine-carboxylic acids and derivatives thereof.

Method of protecting cultivations of agrarian interest from the action

Derivatives of 2- or 4-thiazolidine-carboxylic acid having an acyl group in position 3 are herein described. Said compounds are endowed with a phytogrowth regulating and biostimulating action.

3-acyl substituted of 2- or 4-thiazolidine-carboxylic acid having a

3-acyl substituted derivatives of 2- or 4-thiazolidine-carboxylic acid

Compounds having antidote activity and belonging to the class of the derivatives of 1,3-thiazolidine useful for protecting cultivations of agrarian interest from the toxic action of nonselective herbicides are herein described. The invention relates, also, to a method for protecting cultivations of agrarian interest from the toxic action of nonselective herbicides consisting in the use, as antidotes, of the above mentioned compounds and the compositions for agrarian use containing said compounds.

Compounds having a antidote activity for the protection of cultivations

New, highly active fungicides which are N-acyl-S-haloalkyl, or S-halovinyl-thiolcarbamates are prepared by reacting a carboxylic acid, e.g., benzoic acid, with an imidoyl chloride, such as trichloromethylthiomidoyl chloride. These new fungicide thiolcarbamates are effective in fighting a wide range of fungi which attack useful plants, being particularly active against fungi belonging to the different orders Ficomicoeti, Ascomicoeti and Basidiomicoeti.

Fungicidal N-acyl-S-haloalkyl (or S-halovinyl) thiolcarbamates and

The present invention concerns new pyrethroids having a high insecticidal activity. More particularly, this invention relates to novel esters of 2,2-dimethyl-cyclopropanecarboxylic acids substituted in the 3 position; the preparation of said novel esters; the use of said novel esters as insecticides and to insecticidal compositions containing said novel esters as the active ingredient. The present invention also includes providing intermediates for the synthesis of the new pyrethroids and the process for the preparation of said intermediates.
