Abstract
A method of combating bacteria comprising applying to the bacteria, or to a habitat thereof, an acylhalogenomethyl thiocyanate of the formula ##STR1## in which R is alkyl with up to 6 carbon atoms, thienyl, phenyl, naphthyl, or phenyl substituted by halogen, hydroxy, alkyl with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy with up to 4 carbon atoms, nitro or phenyl, X is halogen, and Y is halogen or hydrogen.
Claims8
A method of combating phytopathogenic bacteria comprising applying to plants or seeds an acylhalogenomethyl thiocyanate of the formula ##STR24## in which R is alkyl with up to 6 carbon atoms, thienyl, phenyl, naphthyl, or phenyl substituted by halogen, hydroxy, alkyl with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy with up to 4 carbon atoms, nitro or phenyl,
- X is halogen,
- Y is halogen or hydrogen, the compound being applied in an amount effective to combat said bacteria but not substantially to affect plants or seed.
