Fungicidal N-phenylcarbamates
This invention relates to fungicidal N-phenylcarbamates. 
     Benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides such as Benomyl (methyl-1-(butylcarbamoyl)benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate), Fubelidazol (2-(2-furyl)benzimidazole), Thiabendazole (2-(4-thiazolyl)benzimidazole), Carbendazim (methyl benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate), Thiophanate-methyl (1,2-bis(3-methoxycarbonyl-2-thioureido)benzene), Thiophanate (1,2-bis(3-ethoxycarbonyl-2-thioureido)benzene), 2-(O,S-dimethylphosphorylamino)-1-(3&#39;-methoxycarbonyl-2&#39;-thioureido)benzene and 2-(O,O-dimethylthiophosphorylamino)-1-(3&#39;-methoxycarbonyl-2&#39;-thioureido)benzene are known to show an excellent fungicidal activity against various plant pathogenic fungi, and they have been widely used as agricultural fungicides since 1970. However, their continuous application over a long period of time results in phytopathogenic fungi becoming tolerant to the fungicides, whereby their plant disease-preventive effect is much lowered. Further, the fungi which gain tolerance to certain kinds of benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides also show considerable tolerance to some other kinds of benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides. Thus, they are apt to obtain cross-tolerance. Therefore, if any material decrease of their plant disease-preventive effect in certain fields is observed, their application to such fields has to be discontinued. But, it is often observed that the density of drug-resistant organisms is not decreased even long after the discontinuation of the application. Although other kinds of fungicides have to be employed in such case, only few are as effective as benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides in controlling various phytopathogenic fungi. Cyclic imide fungicides such as Procymidone (3-(3&#39;,5&#39;-dichlorophenyl)-1,2-dimethylcyclopropane-1,2-dicarboximide), Iprodione (3-(3&#39;,5&#39;-dichlorophenyl)-1-isopropylcarbamoylimidazolidine-2,4-dione), Vinchlozoline (3-(3&#39;,5&#39;-(dichlorophenyl)-5-methyl-5-vinyloxazolidin-2,4-dione), ethyl (RS)-3-(3&#39;,5&#39;-dichlorophenyl)-5-methyl-2,4-dioxooxazolidine-5-carboxylate, etc., which are effective against various plant diseases, particularly those caused by Botrytis cinerea, have the same defects as previously explained with respect to the benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides. 
     In C.R. Acad. Sc. Paris, t. 289, S&#39;erie D, pages 691-693 (1979), it is described that such herbicides as Barban (4-chloro-2-butynyl N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate), Chlorobufam (1-methyl-2-propynyl N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate), Chloropropham (isopropyl N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate) and Propham (isopropyl N-phenylcarbamate) exhibit a fungicidal activity against certain organisms tolerable to some of the benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides. As readily understood from their herbicidal use, however, their foliar application to crop plants as fungicides causes serious chemical injury thereon. In addition, their fungicidal activity against the drug-resistant fungi is not strong enough, and hence they can not be used as a fungicide. 
     As a result of the study seeking a new type of fungicides, it has now been found that N-phenylcarbamates of the formula: ##STR2## wherein X and Y which may be the same of different, are each a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group, a lower cyanoalkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a cyano group, a lower alkyl group substituted with at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydroxyl and cyano, or a group of the formula: ##STR3## in which R 3  is a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group or a lower haloalkyl group, R 4  and R 5  are, same or different, each a lower alkyl group, R 6  is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, n is 2, 3 or 4, Z is an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, R 1  is a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group or a lower alkyl group substituted with at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, lower alkoxy and lower cycloalkyl and R 2  is a C 1  -C 8  alkyl group, a C 3  -C 8  alkenyl group, a C 3  -C 8  alkynyl group, a lower cycloalkyl group, a lower haloalkenyl group, a lower haloalkynyl group or a lower alkyl group substituted with at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, cyano, lower alkoxy, lower alkenyloxy, lower haloalkoxy, phenoxy, lower aralkyloxy and lower cycloalkyl, show an excellent fungicidal activity against plant pathogenic fungi which have developed resistance to benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and/or cyclic imide fungicides. It is notable that their fungicidal potency against the organisms tolerant to benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and/or cyclic imide fungicides (hereinafter referred to as &#34;drug-resistant fungi&#34; or &#34;drug-resistant strains&#34;) is much higher than that against the organisms sensitive to benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and/or cyclic imide fungicides (hereinafter referred to as &#34;drug-sensitive fungi&#34; or &#34;drug-sensitive strains&#34;). 
     All the N-phenylcarbamates (I) are novel compounds except ethyl N-(3,4,5-trimethoxy)phenylcarbamate, ethyl N-(3,4,5-triethoxy)phenylcarbamate and propargyl N-(4-methoxy-3,5-dibromo)phenylcarbamate. These compounds have been known, but it has not been known or reported that they have fungicidal activity or that they are useful as fungicides [DT-OS 2,041,986, French patent M8200, Arch. Pharm., 272, 221-235 (1934)]. 
     Thus, the present invention provides a fungicidal composition which comprises, as an active ingredient, a fungicidally effective amount of the N-phenylcarbamate (I) and an inert carrier or diluent. It also provides a combination composition comprising as active ingredients the N-phenylcarbamate (I) together with a benzimidazole thiophanate fungicide and/or a cyclic imide fungicide, which is fungicidally effective against not only drug-sensitive fungi but also drug-resistant fungi, and hence particularly effective for the prevention of plant diseases. It also provides a method of controlling plant pathogenic fungi including drug-resistant strains and drug-sensitive strains applying a fungicidally effective amount of the N-phenylcarbamate (I) to plant pathogenic fungi. It further provides novel N-phenylcarbamates which are representable by the formula (I) wherein X, Y, Z, R 1  and R 2  are each as defined above, with the provisos that when all the symbols X, Y and --OR 1  have the same meanings and are methoxy or ethoxy groups and Z is an oxygen atom, R 2  cannot be an ethyl group and that when X and Y are each a bromine atom, --OR 1  is a methoxy group and Z is an oxygen atom, R 2  cannot be a propargyl group. It furthermore provides a process for producing the novel N-phenylcarbamates (I), which comprises reacting a 3,4,5-trisubstituted aniline of the formula: ##STR4## wherein X, Y and R 1  are each as defined above, with a chloroformate of the formula: ##STR5## wherein Z and R 2  are each as defined above (Procedure (a)), or reacting a 3,4,5-trisubstituted phenyl isocyanate of the formula: ##STR6## wherein X, Y and R 1  are each as defined above, with an alcohol or thiol of the formula:

     The N-phenylcarbamates (I) can be prepared by either one of the following procedures: 
     Procedure (a): 
     Reaction of the 3,4,5-trisubstituted aniline (II) with the chloroformate (III). 
     The reaction is usually carried out in the presence of an inert solvent (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, ethyl acetate, pyridine, dimethylformamide). When desired, the reaction may be performed in the existence of a dehydrohalogenating agent (e.g. pyridine, triethylamine, diethylaniline, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide) so as to obtain the objective compound (I) in a high yield. The reaction may be accomplished at a temperature of 0° to 150° C. instantaneously or within 12 hours. 
     Procedure (b): 
     Reaction of the 3,4,5-trisubstituted phenyl isocyanate (IV) with the alcohol or thiol (V). 
     The reaction is usually carried out in the absence or presence of an inert solvent (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, N,N-dimethylformamide, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride). When desired, a catalyst (e.g. triethylamine, diethylaniline, 1,4-diazabicyclo(2,2,2)octane) may be used. The reaction is normally accomplished at a temperature of 0° to 50° C. instantaneously or within 12 hours. 
     In case of the N-phenylcarbamates of the formula (I) wherein at least one of X and Y is a hydroxyiminomethyl group or a lower alkoxyiminomethyl group, it may be prepared by the following procedure (Procedure (c)): reacting the benzaldehyde (VI) with an equimolar or excess amount of hydroxylamine or lower alkoxyamine in an inert solvent (e.g. methanol, ethanol). The reaction may be brought to completion in about 0.5 to 12 hours. For preparation of the N-phenylcarbamates of the formula (I) wherein both of X and Y are hydroxyiminomethyl groups or lower alkoxyiminomethyl groups, there may be used as the starting material the benzaldehyde of the formula (VI) wherein Y is a formyl group. 
     The 3,4,5-trisubstituted aniline (II) used as the starting material in Procedure (a) can be prepared by reducing a nitrobenzene of the formula: ##STR8## wherein X, Y and R 1  are each as defined above, which is obtainable by reacting a nitrophenol of the formula: ##STR9## wherein X and Y are each as defined above with a reagent of the formula: A-R 1  wherein A is a tosyloxy or mesyloxy group or a halogen atom and R 1  is as defined above. 
     The reaction of the nitrophenol (VIII) with the reagent may be carried out in an inert solvent such as water, benzene, toluene, xylene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, chloroform, tetrachloromethane, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol or dimethylformamide, when desired, in the presence of a base such as pyridine, triethylamine, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or sodium carbonate. If necessary, the reaction mass may be heated or cooled. The reaction may be accomplished within 0.5 to 12 hours to give the objective compound in a high yield. 
     The reduction of the nitrobenzene (VII) is usually carried out by a conventional reduction technique such as catalytic reduction with platinum oxide, Raney nickel, platinum black or palladium on carbon, reduction in acidic media, for example, in water containing hydrogen chloride, sulfuric acid or acetic acid, using tin, stannous chloride or iron, or reduction in basic media, for example, in methanol or ethanol, using sodium sulfide or sodium hydrosulfide. 
     The nitrophenol (VIII) can be prepared by a known method [Bavin and Scott: Can. J. Chem., 36, 1284 (1958)]. 
     The 3,4,5-trisubstituted phenyl isocyanate (IV) employed as the starting material in Procedure (b) may be prepared by reacting the 3,4,5-trisubstituted aniline (II) with phosgene. This reaction is usually carried out in the presence of an inert solvent (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, ethyl acetate) at a temperature of 50° C. to the refluxing temperature of the solvent. The reaction may be accomplished instantaneously or within 12 hours. 
     The procedures for preparation of N-phenylcarbamates (I) are illustratively shown in the following Examples. 
    
    
     EXAMPLE 1 
     Preparation of isopropy N-(3,5-dichloro-4-methoxyphenyl)carbamate according to Procedure (a): 
     3,5-Dichloro-4-methoxyaniline (1.8 g) and diethylaniline (1.5 g) were dissolved in benzene (20 ml). To the resultant solution was dropwise added isopropyl chloroformate (1.2 g) in 5 minutes under ice-cooling. After being allowed to stand at room temperature for 12 hours, the reaction mixture was poured into ice water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography using a mixture of benzene and tetrahydrofuran as the eluent to give isopropyl N-(3,5-dichloro-4-methoxyphenyl)carbamate (Compound No. 2) (2.4 g) in a yield of 91.8%. 
     M.P., 107.5°-108° C.

     EXAMPLE 2 
     Preparation of isopropyl N-(3-bromo-5-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)carbamate according to Procedure (b): 
     A mixture of 3-bromo-5-chloro-4-methoxyaniline (13.0 g) in toluene (100 ml) was dropwise added to a toluene solution containing 20 g of phosgene at 10° to 20° C. The resulting mixture was gradually heated and, after being refluxed for 30 minutes, cooled to room temperature. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure to give 3-bromo-5-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl isocyanate (14.4 g). The thus obtained crude substance was added to an isopropanol solution (50 ml) containing triethylamine (1 g). The resultant mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 12 hours, poured into ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography using a mixture of benzene and tetrahydrofuran as the eluent to give isopropyl N-(3-bromo-5-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)carbamate (Compound No. 33) (16.4 g) in a yield of 92% (calculated from the starting 3-bromo-5-chloro-4-methoxyaniline).

     In the practical use of the N-phenylcarbamates (I) as a fungicide, they may be applied as such or in any preparation form such as dusts, wettable powders, oil sprays, emulsifiable concentrates, tablets, granules, fine granules, aerosols or flowables. Such preparation forms can be prepared in a conventional manner by mixing at least one of the N-phenylcarbamates (I) with an appropriate solid or liquid carrier(s) or diluent(s) and, if necessary, an appropriate adjuvant(s) (e.g. surfactants, adherents, dispersants, stabilizers) for improving the dispersibility and other properties of the active ingredient. 
     Examples of the solid carriers or diluents are botanical materials (e.g. flour, tobacco stalk powder, soybean powder, walnut-shell powder, vegetable powder, saw dust, bran, bark powder, cellulose powder, vegetable extract residue), fibrous materials (e.g. paper, corrugated card-board, old rags), synthetic plastic powders, clays (e.g. kaolin, bentonite, fuller&#39;s earth), talcs, other inorganic materials (e.g. pyrophyllite, sericite, pumice, sulfur powder, active carbon) and chemical fertilizers (e.g. ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, urea, ammonium chloride). 
     Examples of the liquid carriers or diluents are water, alcohols (e.g., methanol, ethanol), ketones (e.g. acetone, methylethylketone), ethers (e.g. diethyl ether, dioxane, cellosolve, tetrahydrofuran), aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, methyl naphthalene), aliphatic hydrocarbons (e.g. gasoline, kerosene, lamp oil), esters, nitriles, acid amides (e.g. dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide), halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g. dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride), etc. 
     Examples of the surfactants are alkyl sulfuric esters, alkyl sulfonates, alkylaryl sulfonates, polyethylene glycol ethers, polyhydric alcohol esters, etc. Examples of the adherents and dispersants may include cesein, gelatin, starch powder, carboxymethyl cellulose, gum arabic, alginic acid, lignin, bentonite, molasses, polyvinyl alcohol, pine oil and agar. As the stabilizers, there may be used PAP (isopropyl acid phosphate mixtures), TCP (tricresyl phosphate), tolu oil, epoxydized oil, various surfactants, verious fatty acids and their esters, etc. 
     The foregoing preparations generally contain at least one of the N-phenylcarbamates (I) in a concentration of about 1 to 95% by weight, preferably 2.0 to 80% by weight. By using the preparations, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) are generally applied in such amounts as 2 to 100 g per 10 are. 
     When only the drug-resistant strains of phytopathogenic fungi are present, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) may be used alone. However, when the drug-sensitive strains are present together with the drug-resistant strains, their alternate use with benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and/or cyclic imide fungicides or their combined use with benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and/or cyclic imide fungicides is favorable. In such alternate or combined use, each active ingredient may be employed as such or in conventional agricultural preparation forms. In case of the combined use, the weight proportion of the N-phenylcarbamate (I) and the benzimidazole thiophanate fungicide and/or the cyclic imide fungicide may be from about 1:0.1 to 1:10.0. 
     Typical examples of the benzimidazole thiophanate fungicides and the cyclic imide fungicides are shown in Table 2.

     Experiment 1 
     Protective activity test on powdery mildew of cucumber (Sphaerotheca fuliginea): 
     A flower pot of 90 ml volume was filed with sandy soil, and seeds of cucumber (var: Sagami-hanjiro) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 8 days. Onto the resulting seedlings having cotyledons, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Sphaerotheca fuliginea by spraying and further cultivated in the greenhouse. Ten days thereafter, the infectious state of the plants was observed. The degree of damage was determined in the following manner, and the results are shown in Table 3. 
     The leaves examined were measured for a percentage of infected area and classified into the corresponding disease indices, 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4:

     As understood from the results shown in Table 3, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commercially available known fungicides such as Benomyl, Thiophanate-methyl and Carbendazim show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. Other tested compounds structurally similar to the N-phenylcarbamates (I) do not show any fungicidal activity on the drug-sensitive strain and the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 2 
     Preventive effect on cercospora leaf spot of sugarbeet (Cercospora beticola): 
     A flower pot of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of sugarbeet (var: Detroit dark red) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 20 days. Onto the resulting seedlings, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Cercospora beticola by spraying. The pot was covered with a polyvinyl chloride sheet to make a condition of high humidity, and cultivation was continued in the greenhouse for 10 days. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 4.

     As understood from the results shown in Table 4, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commecially available known fungicides such as Benomyl and Thiophanate-methyl show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. Other tested compounds structurally similar to the N-phenylcarbamates (I) do not show any fungicidal activity on the drug-sensitive strain and the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 3 
     Preventive effect on scab of pear (Venturia nashicola): 
     A plastic pot of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of pear (var: Chojuro) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 20 days. Onto the resulting seedlings, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Venturia nashicola by spraying. The resulting plants were placed at 20° C. under a condition of high humidity for 3 days and then at 20° C. under irradiation with a fluorescent lamp for 20 days. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 5.

     As understood from the results shown in Table 5, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commercially available known fungicides such as Benomyl and Thioophanate-methyl show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 4 
     Preventive effect on brown leaf-spot of peanut (Cercospora arachidicola): 
     A plastic pot of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of peanut (var: Chiba hanryusei) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 14 days. Onto the resulting seedlings, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Cercospora arachidicola by spraying. The resulting plants were covered with a polyvinyl chloride sheet to make a condition of humidity and cultivated in the greenhouse for 10 days. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 6.

     Experiment 5 
     Preventive effect on gray mold of cucumber (Botrytis cinerea): 
     Plastic pots of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of cucumber (var: Sagami-hanjiro) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 8 days to obtain cucumber seedlings expanding cotyledons. Onto the resulting seedlings, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. After air-drying, the seedlings were inoculated with mycelial disks (5 mm in diameter) of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Botrytis cinerea by putting them on the leaf surfaces. After the plants were infected by incubating under high humidity at 20° C. for 3 days, the rates of disease severity were observed. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 7.

     As understood from the results shown in Table 7, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commercially available known fungicides such as Benomyl, Thioophanate-methyl and Carbendazim show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 6 
     Preventive effect on gummy stem blight of cucumber (Mycosphaerella melonis): 
     Plastic pots of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of cucumber (var: Sagami-hanjiro) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 8 days to obtain cucumber seedlings expanding cotyledons. Onto the resulting seedlings, the test compound formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. After air-drying, the seedlings were inoculated with mycelial disks (5 mm in diameter) of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Mycosphaerella melonis by putting them on the leaf surfaces. After the plants were infected by incubating under high humidity at 25° C. for 4 days, the rates of disease severity were observed. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 8.

     As understood from the results shown in Table 8, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commercially available known fungicides such as Benomyl and Thioophanate-methyl show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 7 
     Preventive effect on green mold of orange (Penicillium italicum): 
     Fruits of orange (var: Unshu) were washed with water and dried in the air. The fruits were immersed in a solution of the test compound prepared by diluting an emulsifiable concentrate comprising the test compound with water for 1 minute. After drying in the air, the fruits were inoculated with a spore suspension of the drug-resistant or drug-sensitive strain of Pencillium italicum by spraying and placed in a room of high humidity for 14 days. The degree of damage was determined in the following manner: 
     The fruits examined were measured for a percentage of infected area and classified into the corresponding indices, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5:

     As understood from the results shown in Table 9, the N-phenylcarbamates (I) of the invention show an excellent preventive effect on the drug-resistant strain but do not show any preventive effect on the tested drug-sensitive strain. To the contrary, commercially available known fungicides such as Benomyl, Thiophanate-methyl and Thiabendazole show a notable controlling effect on the drug-sensitive strain but not on the drug-resistant strain. 
     Experiment 8 
     Preventive effect on rice blast (Pyricularia oryzae): 
     Plastic pots of 90 ml volume were filled with a cultured soil for rice plants, and seeds of rice plant (var: Kinki No. 33) were sowed therein and cultivated in a greenhouse. Onto the seedlings of 3-leaf stage, the test compound formulated in an emulsifiable concentrate and diluted with water was sprayed to enough cover the leaf surfaces with droplets. After air-drying, the seedlings were inoculated with a spore suspension of Pyricularia oryzae by spraying, followed by incubation at 28° C. for 3 days under a high humid condition. The disease severity were observed and the degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1. The results are shown in Table 10.

     Experiment 10 
     Preventive effect on powdery mildew of cucumber (Sphaerotheca fuliginea): 
     A plastic pot of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of cucumber (var: Sagami-hanjiro) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 8 days. Onto the resulting seedlings having cotyledons, the test compound(s) formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water were sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a mixed spore suspension of the drug-resistant and drug-sensitive strain of Sphaerotheca fuliginea by spraying and further cultivated in the greenhouse. Ten days thereafter, the infectious state of the plants was observed. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 12.

     Experiment 11 
     Preventive effect on gray mold of tomato (Botrytis cinerea): 
     A plastic pot of 90 ml volume was filled with sandy soil, and seeds of tomato (var: Fukuji No. 2) were sown therein. Cultivation was carried out in a greenhouse for 4 weeks. Onto the resulting seedlings at the 4-leaf stage, the test compound(s) formulated in emulsifiable concentrate or wettable powder and diluted with water were sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot. Then, the seedlings were inoculated with a mixed spore suspension of the drug-resistant and drug-sensitive strain of Botrytis cinerea by spraying and placed at 20° C. in a room of high humidity for 5 days. The degree of damage was determined in the same manner as in Experiment 1, and the results are shown in Table 13.
