The compounds of formula I are oils or solids at room temperature and are distinguished by valuable microbiocidal properties. They can be used in the agricultural sector or related fields preventively and curatively in the control of plant-destructive microorganisms. The compounds of formula I according to the invention are distinguished at low rates of concen- tration not only by outstanding microbiocidal, especially fungicidal, activity but also by being especially well tolerated by plants.

Surprisingly, it has now been found that the compounds of formula I have for practical purposes a very advantageous biocidal spectrum in the control of phytopathogenic micro- organisms, especially fungi. They possess very advantageous curative and preventive properties and are used in the protection of numerous crop plants. With the compounds of formula I it is possible to inhibit or destroy phytopathogenic microorganisms that occur on various crops of useful plants or on parts of such plants (fruit, blossom, leaves, stems, tubers, roots), while parts of the plants which grow later also remain protected, for example, against phytopathogenic fungi.

The novel compounds of formula I prove to be effective against specific genera of the fungus class Fungi imperfecti (e. g. Cercospora), Basidiomycetes (e. g. Puccinia) and Ascomycetes (e. g. Erysiphe and Venturia) and especially against Oomycetes (e. g.

Plasmopara, Peronospora, Pythium and Phytophthora). They therefore represent in plant protection a valuable addition to the compositions for controlling phytopathogenic fungi. The compounds of formula I can also be used as dressings for protecting seed (fruit, tubers, grains) and plant cuttings from fungal infections and against phytopathogenic fungi that occur in the soil.

The invention relates also to compositions comprising compounds of formula I as active ingredient, especially plant-protecting compositions, and to the use thereof in the agri- cultural sector or related fields.

In addition, the present invention includes the preparation of those compositions, wherein the active ingredient is homogeneously mixed with one or more of the substances or groups of substances described herein. Also included is a method of treating plants which is distin- guished by the application of the novel compounds of formula I or of the novel compositions.

Those other active ingredients may be fertilisers, micronutrient donors or other preparations that influence plant growth. It is also possible to use selective herbicides or insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides or mixtures of several of those preparations, if desired together with further carriers, surfactants or other application- promoting adjuvants customarily employed in formulation technology.

Biological Examples D-1 : Action against Plasmopara viticola (downy mildew) on vines 5 week old grape seedlings cv. Gutedel are treated with the formulated test compound in a spray chamber. One day after application grape plants are inoculated by spraying a sporangia suspension (4 x 104 sporangia/ml) on the lower leaf side of the test plants. After an incubation period of 6 days at +21 °C and 95% r. h. in a greenhouse the disease incidence is assessed.

Compounds of Tables 1 to 16 exhibit a good fungicidal action against Plasmopara viticola on vines. Compounds A1. 3 and A1. 4 at 200 ppm inhibit fungal infestation in this test to a least 80%, while under the same conditions untreated control plants are infected by the phytopathogenic fungi to over 80%.

D-2 : Action against Phytophthora (late blight) on tomato plants 3 week old tomato plants cv. Roter Gnom are treated with the formulated test compound in a spray chamber. Two day after application the plants are inoculated by spraying a sporangia suspension (2 x 104 sporangia/ml) on the test plants. After an incubation period of 4 days at +18 C and 95% r. h. in a growth chamber the disease incidence is assessed.

Compounds of Tables 1 to 16 exhibit a long-lasting effect against fungus infestation.

Compounds A1. 3 and A1. 4 at 200 ppm inhibit fungal infestation in this test to a least 80%, while under the same conditions untreated control plants are infected by the phytopathogenic fungi to over 80%.

D-3 : Action against Phytophthora (late blight) on potato plants 5 week old potato plants cv. Bintje are treated with the formulated test compound in a spray chamber. Two day after application the plants are inoculated by spraying a sporangia suspension (14 x 104 sporangia/ml) on the test plants. After an incubation period of 4 days at +18°C and 95% r. h. in a growth chamber the disease incidence is assessed.

Fungal infestation is effectively controlled with compounds of Tables 1 to 16.
