ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to new fungicidal phenylamidine derivatives, their process of preparation and the fungicidal compositions containing them.
WO 95/22532 relates to substituted phenyltriazolinones claimed as herbicides and discloses inter alia a compound of formula A for which there is no characterising data therein.
The abstract, composition claim and use claim refer only to the use of such compounds as herbicides and indeed the description supports the invention only with herbicidal activity data. There is a sentence in the specification that states that certain compounds show fungicidal activity, although no fungicidal activity data are provided. No indication is given as to which compounds are fungicidal and there is no suggestion that compound A could be fungicidal.
We have now found that certain phenylamidines have fungicidal activity. Therefore, the invention provides the use of a compound of general formula (I) and salts thereof as fungicides:
