The present invention concerns compounds for use as a medicine having the formula the N-oxide forms, the salts, the quaternary amines and stereochemically isomeric forms thereof, wherein

Antifungal 4-substituted 5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo [1,2-a][1,4]benzodiazepines

The present invention concerns compounds for use as a medicine having the formula (I), the N-oxide forms, the salts, the quaternary amines and stereochemically isomeric forms thereof, wherein Rrepresents hydrogen, Calkyl, Calkylthio, Calkyloxy, or halo; Rrepresents hydrogen or Calkyl; Rrepresents phenyl substituted with halo, cyano, Calkyloxy, Calkylthio, Calkyl, haloCalkyl; 2-thienyl; or 3-thienyl, Rrepresents hydrogen; or Rand Rform an extra bond, which are active against dermatophytes, and their preparation; it further relates to compositions comprising them, as well as their use as a medicine.

Antifungal 4-substituted 5,6-dihydro-4h-pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4] benzodiazepines

Herbicidal compounds ##STR1## in which Q represents a group --C(O)--C(CN).dbd.CH--NR.sup.1 R.sup.2, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently represents alkyl, or together represent alkylene optionally interrupted by oxygen, m is O or m is an integer from 1 to 3 and the or each Y independently represents halogen or alkyl and n is O or n is an integer from 1 to 5 and the or each X independently represents halogen, alkyl, haloalkyl, cyanoalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, haloalkylthio, alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, alkylthio, alkenylthio, alkynylthio, cyano, nitro, alkylsulphonyl, alkysulphinyl, sulphonamido, or phenyl optionally substituted by alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy or halogen.

Herbicidal acrylonitrile derivatives

Compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein n is 1 to 5 and the/each X is hydrogen, halogen, cyano, nitro, optionally substituted alkyl or alkoxy alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, haloalkylthio, alkenylthio or alkynylthio;

Herbicidal carboxamide compounds

Compounds of formula ##STR1## wherein Z is oxygen or sulphur;

Herbicidal carboxamide derivatives

Compounds of the general formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently represents an alkyl group, Z represents a nitrogen atom or a group CH unsubstituted or substituted by a substituent X, m is 0 or an integer from 1 to 4, the or each Y represents a halogen atom, n is 0 or an integer from 1 to 5, and the or each X represents a halogen atom or a group selected from alkyl, haloalkyl, cyanoalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, alkylthio, alkenylthio, alkynylthio, cyano, nitro, alkylsulphonyl, alkylsulphinyl, and sulphonamido, have been found to have herbicidal activity.

Herbicidal 2-pyridyloxy-benzoyl-acrylonitriles

The invention provides compounds of the general formula ##STR1## wherein R represents a hydrogen atom, or an optionally substituted alkyl or acyl group, or an alkenyl or alkynyl group or an inorganic or organic cation;

Oximino ether compounds

The invention provides benzothiazinone derivatives of formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents a nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic group or a phenyl group substituted by 1 or 2 substituents selected from halogen atoms, alkyl, haloalkyl and alkoxy groups; a process for the preparation of such compounds; compositions containing them and a method of combating plant pathogenic fungi using such compositions or compounds.
