Abstract:
Undesired vegetation such as crabgrass, coxcomb, green foxtail, yellow foxtail, giant foxtail, barnyard grass, lambsquarters, black nightshade and pigweed are combated by pre-emergent application of an N-benzyl-N-isopropyl-3,5-dichloro-, 3-chloroor 3,5-dimethylthiobenzamide. The method is particularly useful in combating weeds in the presence of crops such as sugar beets, peanuts, cotton, grain sorghum and soybeans.
IN A VARIETY OF CROPS, INCLUDING BROAD-LEAF SPECIES SUCH AS TOMATOES AND SOYBEANS, AS WELL AS CORN AND SMALL GRAINS, PARTICULARLY RICE AND WHEAT, CONTROL OF NOXIOUS GRASSES, INCLUDING CRABGRASS, WILD OATS, FOXTAIL AND SHATTERCANE IS OBTAINED BY PREEMERGENT APPLICATION OF COMPOUNDS HAVING THE STRUCTURAL FORMULA IN WHICH R AND R'' ARE NON-PRIMARY ALKYL OR CYCLOALKYL SUBSTITUENTS HAVING AT LEAST 3 CARBON ATOMS AND X IS AN ELECTRONEGATIVE SUBSTITUENT, FOR EXAMPLE, DICHLOROMETHYL, OR AN UNSATURATED HYDROCARBON STRUCTURE SUCH AS PHENYL OR CYCLOPROPYL.
Abstract:
CATALYSTS WHICH ARE USEFUL FOR VAPOR PHASE OXIDATION OF ISOBUTYLENE, CONSISTING OF INTIMATELY MIXED OXIDES OF COPPER, MOLYBDENUM AND TELLURIUM ON A REFRACTORY SOLID SUPPORT ARE MADE, FOR EXAMPLE, BY COATING A SOLID SUCH AS SILICON CARBIDE WITH AN AQUEOUS SOLUTION OF COPPER, MOLYBDENUM AND TELLURIUM COMPOUNDS AND HEATING THE COATED SOLID TO AT LEAST 350*C.
Abstract:
UNDESIRED VEGETATION SUCH AS CRABGRASS, DOWNEY BROME, GIANT FOXTAIL, YELLOW FOXTAIL, BARNYARD GRASS, FLAX AND WILD OATS ARE COMBATED BY PRE-EMERGENT APPLICATION OF AT LEAST ONE COMPOUND BELONGING TO A CLAS OF SUBSTITUTED N-BENZYL AMIDES OF ALKANOIC AND BENZOIC ACIDS, PARTICULARYLY IN THE PRESENCE OF SEEDS OF SUCH CROPS AS COTTON AND SOYBEANS. ILLUSTRATIVE OF COMPOUNDS WHICH ARE VERY EFFECTIVE AGAINST SEVERAL SPECIES OF GRASSES AS WELL AS SOME BROADLEAF WEEDS IN THE PRESENCE OF SOYBEANS AND COTTON ARE TWO WITH THE FOLLOWING STRUCTURAL FORMULAS:
1-(PHENYL-CH2-N(-CH(-CH3)2)-CO-),3,5-DI(CL-)BENZENE AND
Abstract:
N-benzoylcarbamyloxy-, chlorophenylcarbamyloxy and bromophenylcarbamyloxy-3,5-ditert.butylbenzylidene-malononitriles are useful in combating a variety of agricultural mites and insect pests, including tobacco budworm, Southern army worm, fall army worm, 2-spotted mite and European corn borer. Particularly useful against tobacco budworm are the 4-bromo-3chlorophenylcarbamyloxy- and the 2,4-dichlorophenylcarbamyloxy compounds. For control of European corn borer the Nbenzoylcarbamyloxy-, 4-bromo-3-chlorophenylcarbamyloxy- and the 2,4-dichlorophenylcarbamyloxy- compounds are particularly useful. For control of fall army worm the N-benzoylcarbamyloxy- compound is preferred.
Abstract:
The carbamyl derivatives of 4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert.butyl benzylidenemalononitrile are compounds which possess a high order of activity as miticides, insecticides and fungicides. New compounds of this class, for example, 3,5-di-tert.butyl-4-(3bromophenylcarbamyloxy)benzylidene-malononitrile, are particularly effective against corn rootworm while possessing less toxicity to warm blooded animals than the most closely related prior art compound.
