Abstract:
NOVEL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING OXETANES, SUCH AS THE 3-OXATRICYCLO(4.2.1.0)NONANES, AS THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT, ARE USEFUL FOR CONTROLLING MILDEW.
Abstract:
WHERE R and R'' are hydrogen, hydroxy, lower alkoxy or halogen; R'''' is lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halogen, nitro or trihalomethyl; x is 0 or a positive integer from 1 to 4 and R1, R2, and R3 are lower alkyl, with the proviso that when R and R'' are both hydrogen, x is a positive integer.
A new series of 2-(poly substituted phenyl)-1,3-indandione compounds have been found to have exceptional miticidal and herbicidal activity. These compounds may be represented by the following general formula:
Abstract:
Oxetanes, such as the 3-oxatricyclo ( 4.2.1.0) nonanes, are prepared by the photocatalyzed reaction of a ketone with an olefinic compound. The reaction is carried out by bringing the ketone and the olefinic compound into admixture in a suitable reactor and irradiating the mixture with light energy.
