PROCESS FOR PRODUCING BIOCIDIAL BENZIMIDAZOLE OR AZOLE DERIVATIVES AND COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM

Benzimidazole and azoles (I) have biocidal effect. Benzimidazole and azoles of general formula (1) have biocidal effect. (I) Yn->x[Xa-Xb]n+> (I). n : 2-5; Y : is an at least dibasic acid pref. phosphoric phosphonic or phosphinic acid or their derivs.; e.g.: o- or m-phosphoric acid-, phosponic acid- (in particular C1-C15-alkyl-, aryl-, or aralkyl substd. phosphoric-phosphonic-, phosphinic-acids, or their suitably substd. esters, ethers, carbamoyl phosphonic acid; Xaa mobile 'H' contg. active centre, capable of forming a salt with a Y type, pref. 'P' contg. base, pref. benzimidazole or azole deriv., namely: allendazole, cambendazole, debacarb, febendazole, flubendazole, fuberidazole, carbendazim, chloropohenazole, mebendazole, nocodazole, omeparazole, oxy-bendazole, rabenzazole, ricabendazole, thia-bendazole, triclabendazole; and XbH, or an active centre having a moile 'H' as in Xa, or another active centre according to Y capable of forming salts with a 'P' based base pref. with benzimidazole or an azole deriv. namely: fenaparyl, glyodin, perfurazoate, azaconazole, bitertanol, bromuconazole, cyproconazole, diclobutrazole, diphenoconazole, diniconazole, dimiconazole-M, epoxy-conazole, epoxy conazole, eta conazole, phenbuconazole, fluquinazole, flusilazole, fluriafol, furconazole, furconazole-cis., hexaconazole, imazalyl, imibenconazole, ipconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, metconazole, myclo-butanyl, oxpoconazole, penconazole, prochlorase, propiconazole, quinconazole, sime-conazole, tebuconazole, tetraconazole, triadimefon, triadimenol, triflumizole, triticonazole, uniconazole, uniconazol-P. Independent claims are given for preparation of (I) and their formulation into anti-microbial prods. together with application to plants.
