- 1. The process for increasing the accumulation of rubber hydrocarbons in a plant that produces the same, which comprises applying to the plant an effective amount of a mixture, said mixture comprising a compound of the structure ##STR8## wherein: X is either oxygen or sulfur,
- R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are lower alkyl containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms,
- R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 are independently hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, iodine, lower alkyl containing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, lower alkoxy containing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or condensed mono- and polycyclic aromatic ring systems, and
- n is an integer from 1 to 3; and wherein:
- if R.sub.5 is hydrogen, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 must be other than hydrogen; and wherein:
- if R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 are hydrogen, R.sub.4 l must be a branched-chain alkyl group containing from 3 to 5 carbon atoms or an alkoxy group containing a branched-chain alkyl group of 3 to 5 carbon atoms; and wherein:
- if R.sub.4 is hydrogen, R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 must be branched-chain alkyl groups containing from 3 to 5 carbon atoms or alkoxy groups containing branched-chain alkyl groups of 3 to 5 carbon atoms or chlorine, bromine, or iodine;
- mixed together with a compound of the structure ##STR9## wherein: X is either oxygen or sulfur,
- R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are lower alkyl containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and
- n is an integer from 1 to 3.
