If asymmetric carbon atoms exist in the compounds of the formula I, the compounds exist in optically active form. The compounds exist in any case in �E! and/or �Z! forms, merely because of the presence of the aliphatic, the oximino and the hydrazono double bonds. Furthermore, atropisomerism may exist. The formula I is intended to embrace all these isomeric forms which are possible and their mixtures, for example racemic mixtures, and any �E/Z! mixtures.
Unless otherwise defined, the general terms used hereinabove and hereinbelow are intended to mean the following:
Halogen is fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, in particular fluorine, chlorine or bromine, especially fluorine or chlorine.
Alkyl is either straight-chain, for example methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-hexyl, n-octyl, n-decyl, n-dodecyl, n-hexadecyl or n-octadecyl, or branched, for example isopropyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, isopentyl, neopentyl or isohexyl.
Alkenyl is straight-chain or branched alkenyl, for example vinyl, 1-methylvinyl, allyl, 1-butenyl, isopropenyl, in particular allyl.
Alkynyl is, for example, ethynyl, 1-propynyl or 1-butynyl, in particular propargyl.
Cycloalkyl is to be understood as meaning cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl.
Halogen-substituted groups such as haloalkyl and haloalkoxy can be partially or fully halogenated by identical or different substituents. Examples of haloalkyl are methyl which is mono- to trisubstituted by fluorine, chlorine and/or bromine, such as CHF.sub.2, CF.sub.3 or CH.sub.2 Cl; ethyl which is mono- to pentasubstituted by fluorine, chlorine and/or bromine, such as CH.sub.2 CF.sub.3, CF.sub.2 CF.sub.3, CF.sub.2 CCl.sub.3, CF.sub.2 CHCl.sub.2, CF.sub.2 CHF.sub.2, CF.sub.2 CFCl.sub.2, CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 Cl, CF.sub.2 CHBr.sub.2, CF.sub.2 CHClF, CF.sub.2 CHBrF or CClFCHClF; trifluoromethyl is very particularly preferred.

Aryl is, for example, phenyl or naphthyl, in particular phenyl.
Heterocyclyl is a 5- to 7-membered aromatic or non-aromatic ring having one to three hetero atoms selected from the group consisting of N, O and S. Preferred are aromatic 5- and 6-membered rings which have a nitrogen atom as hetero atom and, if appropriate, a further hetero atom, preferably nitrogen or sulfur, in particular nitrogen.

A) To obtain a compound of the formula I in which Y is N(R.sub.12)R,.sub.3, a compound of the formula I in which Y is OR.sub.11 is reacted with HN(R.sub.12)R.sub.13. The reaction is carried out advantageously in an inert organic diluent, for example in an alcohol such as ethanol, in an ether such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, an ester such as ethyl acetate, a sulfoxide such as dimethyl sulfoxide, an amide such as dimethylformamide or a ketone such as methyl isobutyl ketone. Methylamine can be used in gaseous form or else in dissolved form, for example in the form of a solution in ethanol. The process temperature is conventionally between 0.degree. C. and 40.degree. C., preferably room temperature.
B) To prepare a compound of the formula I in which X, Y, A and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined for formula I (and in which R.sub.3 is not hydrogen):
A compound of the general formula ##STR14## in which A and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined above is reacted with a compound of the general formula ##STR15## in which X and Y are as defined above and U is a leaving group.
This reaction is a nucleophilic substitution reaction which can be carried out under the reaction conditions conventionally used in such a case. The leaving group U is preferably chlorine, bromine, iodine, mesyloxy or tosyloxy. The reaction is advantageously carried out in an inert organic diluent such as a cyclic ether, for example tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, a ketone such as acetone, an amide such as dimethylformamide, a sulfoxide such as dimethyl sulfoxide, in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium amide, a tertiary amine, for example trialkylamine, in particular diazabicyclononane or diazabicycloundecane, or silver oxide, at temperatures between -20.degree. C. and 80.degree. C., preferably in a temperature range of 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.
Alternatively, the reaction can be carried out with phase transfer catalysis in an organic solvent for example methylene chloride, in the presence of an aqueous alkaline solution, for example sodium hydroxide solution, and of a phase transfer catalyst, for example tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate, at room temperature.
The resulting compounds of the formula I can be isolated and purified by methods known per se. Equally, isomer mixtures obtained, for example E/Z isomer mixtures, can be separated by methods known per se to give the pure isomers, for example by means of chromatography or fractional crystallization.

This reaction is a nucleophilic substitution reaction as described under B).
D) To prepare a compound of the formula IV in which X, Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined for formula I, a procedure is followed in which:
A compound of the general formula ##STR17## in which X, Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above is reacted with hydroxylamine or a salt thereof, for example the hydrochloride. The reaction is carried out advantageously in pyridine or methanol as the solvent at temperatures between -20.degree. C. and +80.degree. C. or the boiling point of methanol, preferably in a temperature range of 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C., a base being required if methanol is used, for example an alkali metal carbonate, such as potassium carbonate, a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or diazabicyclononane, pyridine or silver oxide.
The ketone of the general formula VI is prepared analogously to the method described under B). The ketones of the general formula VI and their preparation are described, for example, in EP-370 629, EP-506 149, EP-403 618, EP-414 153, EP-463 488, EP-472 300, EP-460 575, WO-92/18494 and in other publications.
E) To prepare a compound of the formula I in which A, X, Y and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined for formula I but in which R.sub.3 is not hydrogen, a procedure is followed in which, for example:
A compound of the general formula ##STR18## in which A, X, Y and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined above is reacted with a methylating agent, for example methyl iodide, dimethyl sulfate or diazomethane. The reaction is advantageously carried out in the presence of a base, for example potassium carbonate or sodium hydride, in a suitable solvent and at suitable reaction temperatures (see, for example, H. S. Anker und H. T. Clarke; Organic Synthesis, Coll. Vol. 3, 172).
F) To prepare a compound of the formula VII in which A, X, Y and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined for formula I, a procedure is advantageously followed in which:
A compound of the formula ##STR19## in which A, Y and R.sub.1 -R.sub.3 are as defined above is reacted with a formate in the presence of a base analogously to the method described in EP-A-178 826, or is subjected to nitrosation with nitrous acid or a nitrite in the presence of a base analogously to the method described in EP-A-254 426.
A further possibility of synthesizing a compound of the formula VII is the following reaction:
A compound of the formula ##STR20## in which A, Y and R.sub.1 to R.sub.3 are as defined above is reacted with methoxymethylenetriphenylphosphorane analogously to the method described in EP-A-178 826 or with O-methylhydroxylamine (or a salt thereof) analogously to the method described in EP-A-254 426.
The novel compounds of the formulae II, VII, VIII and IX are also provided by the invention. Preferred thereof are the following compounds: ##STR21## in which R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are as defined for formula I; and the compounds ##STR22##
It has now been found that compounds of the formula I have a microbicidal spectrum for controlling phytopathogenic microorganisms, in particular fungi, which is particularly favourable for practical requirements. They have very advantageous curative, preventive and, in particular, systemic properties and can be used for protecting a large number of crop plants. Using the active ingredients of the formula I, the pests which are found on plants or parts of plants (fruits, flowers, foliage, stalks, tubers, roots) of various crops of useful plants can be contained or destroyed, and even parts of plants which are formed at a later point in time remain free from phytopathogenic microorganisms.
The compounds of the formula I can furthermore be used as seed-dressing agents for the treatment of seed (fruits, tubers, grains) and nursery plants for the protection against fungal infections and against soil-borne phytopathogenic fungi.
Compounds of the formula I are active for example against phytopathogenic fungi which belong to the following classes: Fungi imperfecti (in particular Botrytis, furthermore Pyricularia, Helminthosporium, Fusarium, Septoria, Cercospora, Cercosporella and Alternaria); Basidiomycetes (for example Rhizoctonia, Hemileia, Puccinia); Ascomycetes (for example Venturia and Erysiphe, Podosphaera, Monilinia, Uncinula); Oomycetes (for example Phytophthora, Peronospora, Bremia, Pythium, Plasmopara).
Compounds of the formula I are furthermore valuable active ingredients against insects and Acarina which are found on useful plants and ornamentals in agriculture and horticulture, in particular in crops of rice, cotton, vegetables and fruit, and in forests, and are well tolerated by warm-blooded species, fish and plants. The compounds I are particularly suitable for controlling insects in crops of rice, fruit and vegetables, in particular plant-injurious insects. Other fields of application for the active ingredients of the invention are the protection of stored products and materials and, in the hygiene sector, in particular the protection of domestic animals and productive livestock. The compounds of the formula I are active against all or individual development stages of normally sensitive, but also resistant, pest species. Their activity can become apparent, for example, from the destruction of the pests, either immediately or only after some time has elapsed, for example during molting, or from reduced oviposition and/or hatching rates.

The action of the compounds of the formula I according to the invention and of the compositions comprising them can be broadened considerably and adapted to prevailing circumstances by adding other microbicides, insecticides and/or acaricides. Representatives of the following active ingredient classes are examples of suitable additives: organophosphorus compounds, nitrophenols and derivatives, formamidines, ureas, carbamates, pyrethroids, chlorinated hydrocarbons and Bacillus thuringiensis preparations.
As a rule, active ingredients of the formula I are used in the form of compositions and can be applied to the area or plants to be treated simultaneously or in succession with other active ingredients. These other active ingredients can be fertilizers, trace element mediators or other preparations which have an effect on plant growth. Selective herbicides and also insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, nematicides, molluscicides or mixtures of a plurality of these preparations, with or without other carriers conventionally used in the art of formulation, surfactants or other application-enhancing additives, can also be used.
Suitable carriers and additives can be solid or liquid and are those substances which are expedient in the art of formulation, for example natural or regenerated mineral substances, solvents, dispersants, wetting agents, tackifiers, thickeners, binders or fertilizers.
The following are suitable solvents: aromatic hydrocarbons, preferably the fractions C.sub.8 to C.sub.12, for example xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalates such as dibutyl phthalate or dioctyl phthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols as well as their ethers and esters, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether or ethyl ether, ketones such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide or dimethylformamide, and unepoxidized or epoxidized vegetable oils, such as epoxidized coconut oil or soya oil; or water.
Solid carriers which are generally used, for example for dusts and dispersible powders, are ground natural rocks, such as calcite, talc, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite.
Particularly advantageous application enhancing additives which may result in a greatly reduced rate of application are, moreover, natural (animal or vegetable) or synthetic phospholipids from the series of the cephalins and lecithins, which can be obtained from, for example, soya beans.
Suitable surface-active compounds are, depending on the nature of the active ingredient of the formula I to be formulated, non-ionic, cationic and/or anionic surfactants which have good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties. Surfactants are also to be understood as meaning surfactant mixtures.
Suitable anionic surfactants can be so-called water-soluble salts and also water-soluble synthetic surface-active compounds.
Soaps are the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts or substituted or unsubstituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C.sub.10 -C.sub.22), for example the sodium salts or potassium salts of oleic or stearic acid, or of natural mixtures of fatty acids which can be obtained from, for example, coconut oil or tallow oil. The fatty acid methyltaurates must also be mentioned.
Suitable non-ionic surfactants are polyglycol ether derivatives of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic alcohols, saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and alkylphenols which have 3 to 30 glycol ether groups and 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon radical and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical of the alkylphenols.
Examples of non-ionic surfactants are nonylphenol polyethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene/polyethylene oxide adducts, tributylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol.
Other suitable substances are fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan, such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate.
The cationic surfactants are mainly quaternary ammonium salts which have, as N-substituents, at least one alkyl radical having 8 to 22 C atoms and, as further substituents, lower, halogenated or free alkyl, benzyl or lower hydroxyalkyl radicals.
As a rule, the agrochemical preparations comprise 0.1 to 99%, in particular 0.1 to 95%, of active ingredient of the formula I, 99.9 to 1%, in particular 99.9 to 5%, of a solid or liquid additive and 0 to 25%, in particular 0.1 to 25%, of a surfactant.
While concentrated compositions are more preferred as commercial products, the end consumer will, as a rule, use dilute compositions.
The compositions can also comprise other additives such as stabilizers, antifoams, viscosity regulators, binders, tackifiers, fertilizers or other active ingredients for achieving specific effects.
The formulations, i.e. the compositions, preparations or combinations comprising the active ingredient of the formula I together or without a solid or liquid additive, are produced in a known manner, for example by intimately mixing and/or grinding the active ingredient with an extender, for example a solvent (mixture), a solid carrier and, if appropriate, surface-active compounds (surfactants).
A preferred process for applying an active ingredient of the formula I or an agrochemical composition which comprises at least one of these active ingredients, is application to the foliage (foliar application). Frequency and rate of application depend on the danger of attack by the pathogen in question. However, the active ingredients of the formula I can also reach the plant via the soil through the root system (systemic action) by drenching the locus of the plant with a liquid preparation or by incorporating the substances in solid form into the soil, for example in the form of granules (soil application). In the case of paddy rice, such granules can be metered out into the flooded rice field. Alternatively, the compounds of the formula I can be applied to seed kernels (coating), either by soaking the kernels in a liquid preparation of the active ingredient or by coating them with a solid preparation. In principle, any type of plant propagation material can be protected using the compounds of the formula I, for example seed, roots or stalks.
The compounds of the formula I are used as pure compounds or, preferably, together with the auxiliaries conventionally used in the art of formulation. To this end, they are advantageously processed in the known manner, for example to give emulsion concentrates, spreadable pastes, directly sprayable or dilutable solutions, dilute emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts, granules, and encapsulations, for example in polymeric substances. The methods of application, such as spraying, atomizing, dusting, broadcasting, painting on or pouring, as well as the nature of the compositions are selected to suit the intended aims and the prevailing circumstances. Favourable rates of application are, as a rule, 1 g to 2 kg of active ingredient (a.i.) per ha, preferably 25 g to 800 g of a.i./ha, particularly preferably 50 g to 400 g of a.i./ha. When used as seed dressing products, dosage rates of 0.001 g to 1.0 g of active ingredient are advantageously used per kg of seed.

The examples which follow are intended to illustrate the invention in greater detail without imposing any restriction thereto.
PREPARATION EXAMPLES
Example H-1
Preparation of ##STR23## 1.32 g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride are added to a solution of 5.2 g of methyl 3-Methoxy-2-�(�(3-oxo-2-butyl)imino!oxy)o-tolyl!acrylate (EP-A-370 629, No. 156) in 20 ml of pyridine. After the mixture has been stirred for 6 hours at 30.degree. C., ice-water is added, the crystal cake which has formed after a few hours is filtered off, and the crystals are washed with water. Recrystallization from ethanol/water gives 4.8 g of methyl 3-methoxy-2-�(�(3-hydroximino-2-butyl)imino!oxy)o-tolyl!acrylate (Comp. No. 1.73) as yellow crystals of melting point 104.degree.-107.degree. C.
Example H-2
Preparation of ##STR24## In a pressure pipe, 5 ml of dimethylformamide are added to 0.2 g of an approximately 65% sodium hydride suspension washed with hexane. Then, 1.6 g of methyl 3-methoxy-2-�(�(3-hydroximino-2-butyl)imino!oxy)o-tolyl!acrylate and hereupon 1.1 g of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl iodide are added. After the evolution of hydrogen has subsided, the pressure pipe is sealed, and the mixture is stirred for 5 hours at 50.degree. C. Then, the reaction solution is poured into ice-water and extracted using ethyl acetate, and the product is chromatographed on silica gel using ethyl acetate/hexane (1:3). This gives 1.2 g of methyl 3-methoxy-2-�(�(3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxyimino)-2-butyl)imino!oxy)o-tolyl!acrylate (Comp. No. 1.74) as a colourless oil.

Example H-3
Preparation of ##STR25## A solution of 15.0 g of p-methylpropiophenone and 20 ml of isopentyl nitrite in 30 ml of methanol is slowly added dropwise to 20 ml of sodium methylate (30% in methanol). After the mixture has been stirred for 5 hours, 30 ml of water are added dropwise, and the mixture is subsequently acidified using acetic acid. The mixture is extracted using ethyl acetate, and the extract is washed with water, dried (Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is recrystallized from diethyl ether/n-hexane. This gives .alpha.-hydroxyimino-4-methylpropiophenone as colourless crystals of melting point 122.degree.-124.degree. C.
8.1 g of the previously obtained compound and 4.6 g of o-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride in 40 ml of pyridine are refluxed for 1 hour. After an addition of toluene, the mixture is concentrated in vacuo, treated with water and extracted using ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. .alpha.-Hydroxyimino-4-methylpropiophenone O-methyl oxime are crystallized from diethyl ether/n-hexane in the form of colourless crystals of melting point 156.degree.-157.degree. C.
1.87 g of the previously obtained oxime and 2.58 g of methyl 2-(.alpha.-bromo-o-tolyl)-3-methoxyacrylate are added to a suspension of 0.41 g of sodium hydride in 25 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide, and the reaction mixture is stirred for 3 hours. It is then acidified using acetic acid, treated with water and extracted using ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed twice using saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and once using saturated sodium chloride solution. After drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the solvent is distilled off in vacuo. H-3 crystallizes from diethyl ether/n-hexane in the form of colorless crystals of melting point 98.degree.-101.degree. C. (Comp. No. 1.117).
Example H-4
Preparation of ##STR26## 0.37 g of an approximately 65% sodium hydride suspension is washed with hexane, and 10 ml of dimethylformamide are added. A mixture of 2.59 g of methyl 2-(2-bromomethylphenyl)glyoxylate O-methyloxime and 2.42 g of 2-(diphenylhydrazono)-3-hydroximinobutane is added to this suspension, and the mixture is subsequently heated to 40.degree.-50.degree. C. using a hot-air blower until hydrogen is evolved vigorously. The mixture is then stirred for one hour with the exclusion of moisture, and poured into ice-water. Extraction using ethyl acetate and chromatography on silica gel using ethyl acetate/hexane (1:2) gives 3.7 g of methyl 2-�(�(3-diphenylhydrazono-2-butyl)imino!oxy)o-tolyl!glyoxylate O-methyloxime (Comp. No. 2.19) as a yellow oil.
.sup.1 H NMR in CDCl.sub.3 : chemical shift of the two imino-substituted methyl groups: 1.64 and 2.12 ppm.

Preparation of ##STR27## 1.9 g of methyl 2-�({(3-diphenylhydrazono-2-butyl)-imino}oxy)o-tolyl!glyoxylate O-methyloxime are stirred for 2 hours at room temperature in 10 ml of a 33% methylamine solution in ethanol. Ethanol and the excess of methylamine are distilled off. The residue is taken up in diethyl ether, the solution is filtered, the filtrate is evaporated to dryness, the product remaining as a crystalline solid. Washing with hexane gives 1.8 g of N-monomethyl 2-�({(3-diphenylhydrazono-2-butyl)imino }oxy)o-tolyl!glyoxylamide O-methyloxime (Comp. No. 3.19) as pale beige crystals of melting point 135.degree.-136.degree. C.

Preparation of ##STR28##
1.74 g of 1-�4-(2,2-dichlorocyclopropylmethoxy)phenyl!propane-1,2-dione 1-(O-methyloxime)-2-oxime, of the formula (AA), are added to 0.13 g of sodium hydride in 25 ml of N,N-dimethylformanide. 1.5 g of methyl 2-(2-bromomethylphenyl)-3-methoxyacrylate, of the formula (BB), are subsequently added, and the mixture is stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. The mixture is acidified using acetic acid, and water and ethyl acetate are added. The aqueous phase is separated off, and the organic phase is washed once using saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent is evaporated in vacuo, and the residue obtained is purified on silica gel using hexanelethyl acetate (3:1). The title compound is obtained as an oil. Separation by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane:ethyl acetate solution 3:1) gives three isomers: isomer A, m.p. 86.degree.-88.degree. C., isomer B, oil, isomer C, oil (Compound 5.9). ##STR29##

Example B-1
Action against Phytophthora infestans on tomatoes
a) Curative action
Tomato plants cv. "Roter Gnom" are grown for three weeks and then sprayed with a zoospore suspension of the fungus and incubated in a cabinet at 18.degree. to 20.degree. and saturated atmospheric humidity. The humidification is interrupted after 24 hours. After the plants have dried, they are sprayed with a mixture which comprises the active ingredient, formulated as a wettable powder, at a concentration of 200 ppm. After the spray coating has dried, the plants are returned to the humid chamber for 4 days. Number and size of the typical leaf spots which have developed after this period are used to assess the activity of the test substances.
b) Preventive-systemic action
The active ingredient, formulated as a wettable powder, is applied at a concentration of 60 ppm (relative to the soil volume) to the soil surface of three-week old tomato plants cv. "Roter Gnom" in pots. After the plants have been left to stand for three days, the underside of the leaves is sprayed with a zoospore suspension of Phytophthora infestans. The plants are then kept for 5 days in a spray cabinet at 18.degree. to 20.degree. C. and saturated atmospheric humidity. After this period, typical leaf spots develop, whose number and size are used for assessing the activity of the test substances.
While untreated, but infected, control plants show an infestation of 100%, the active ingredients of the formula I in accordance with one of the tables, in particular the compounds No. 1.5, 1.24, 1.117, 2.24, 2.74 and 3.24, allow the infestation in both tests to be reduced to 20% or less.
Example B-2

a) Residual-preventive action
Vine cuttings cv. "Chasselas" are grown in the greenhouse. When they have reached the 10-leaf stage, 3 plants are sprayed with a mixture (200 ppm of active ingredient). After the spray coating on the plants has dried, the leaf underside is inoculated uniformly with a spore suspension of the fungus. The plants are subsequently kept in a humid chamber for 8 days. After this period, the disease symptoms of the control plants are clearly developed. Number and size of the lesions on the treated plants are used to assess the activity of the test substances.
b) Curative action
Grape cuttings cv. "Chasselas" are grown in the greenhouse and, when they have reached the 10-leaf stage, are inoculated on the underside of the leaves with a spore suspension of Plasmopara viticola. After the plants have remained for 24 hours in a humid cabinet, they are sprayed with a mixture of active ingredient (200 ppm of active ingredient). The plants are subsequently kept for 7 more days in the humid cabinet. After this period, the disease symptoms have developed on the control plants. Number and size of the lesions on the treated plants are used to assess the activity of the test substances. In comparison with the control plants, the infestation of plants which have been treated with active ingredients of the formula I is 20% or less.
Example B-3
Action against Pythium debaryanum on sugar beet (Beta vulgaris)
a) Action after soil application

The treated fruits are subsequently inoculated with a spore suspension of the fungus and incubated for one week at high atmospheric humidity and at approximately 20.degree. C. The fungicidal action of the test substance is deduced from the number of wounds showing signs of rot. Active ingredients of the formula I are capable of reducing the spread of rot, in some cases completely.
Example B-11
Action against Helminthosporium gramineum
Wheat grains are contaminated with a spore suspension of the fungus and allowed to dry.

After two days, the grains are arranged in suitable dishes containing agar, and, after a further four days, the development of fungal colonies around the grains is assessed. The test substance is assessed on the basis of the number and size of the fungal colonies. A good action, i.e. inhibition of fungal colonies, is shown, in some cases, by compounds of the formula I.
Example B-12
Action against Colletotrichum lagenarium on cucumbers
Cucumber plants are grown for two weeks and then sprayed with a spray mixture (concentration 0.002%). After 2 days, the plants are inoculated with a spore suspension (1.5.times.10.sup.5 spores/ml) of the fungus and incubated for 36 hours at 23.degree. and high atmospheric humidity. The incubation is then continued at normal atmospheric humidity at approximately 22.degree.-23.degree. C. The fungus infestation which has developed is assessed 8 days after the inoculation. Untreated, but infected, control plants show a fungus infestation of 100%. A virtually complete inhibition of the infestation with disease is shown, in some cases, by compounds of the formula I, in particular by No. 1.5 and 3.24.
Example B-13
Action against Fusarium nivale on rye
Rye cv. Tetrahell, naturally infected with Fusarium nivale, is dressed with the test fungicide using a mixing roller, the following concentrations being used: 20 or 6 ppm of a.i. (relative to the weight of the seed).
Using a seed drill, the infected and treated rye is drilled in October in a field in 3 m plots of 6 seed furrows. 3 replicates per concentration.
Until the infestation is evaluated, the test plants are grown under normal field conditions (preferably in a region with a complete covering of snow during the winter months).
To assess the phytotoxicity, seed emergence is scored in autumn and number of plants per unit area/number of tillers per plant in spring.
To determine the activity of the active ingredient, the percentage of Fusarium-infested plants is counted immediately after the snow has melted. In the present case, the number of infested plants was lower than 5%. The plants which emerged had a healthy appearance.

Young bean plants are populated with a mixed population of Tetranychus urticae, then, 1 day later, sprayed with an aqueous emulsion spray mixture comprising 400 ppm of active ingredient, incubated for 6 days at 25.degree. and subsequently evaluated. The percentage reduction in population (% action) is determined by comparing the number of dead eggs, larvae and adults on the treated and untreated plants. In this test, compounds of Tables 1-6 show a good action. In particular, compounds No. 1.5, 1.24, 2.24 und 3.24, 4.5, isomer 1, 4.14, isomer 1, 4.117, both isomers, 5.9, isomer 1, and 5.52, isomer 1, have an action of over 80%.
Example B-21
Action against Boophilus microplus
Adult female ticks which have sucked themselves full are attached to a PVC board and covered with a cottonwool ball, and 10 ml of aqueous test solution comprising 125 ppm of active ingredient are poured over the ticks. The cottonwool ball is removed, and the ticks are incubated for 4 weeks for oviposition. The action becomes apparent either, in the case of the female, in the form of mortality or sterility or, in the case of the eggs, in the form of an ovicidal action.
