SUBSTITUTED TRIAZOLES, PROCESSES FOR MAKING THEM, THEIR USE AS FUNGICIDES AND FUNGICIDAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM

摘要

There are provided novel alpha -(halo-substituted phenyl)- alpha -alkyl- beta -(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propanenitriles of Formula I below wherein X is fluoro, chloro or bromo and R is (C3-C8)alkyl with the proviso that when R is branched chain (C3-C6)alkyl the branching does not occur at the alpha -carbon of the R substituent. There are also provided agronomically acceptable acid addition salts or agronomically acceptable metal salt complexes of a propanenitrile of Formula I. The above compounds are useful for combating phytopathogenic fungi.
