Azolyl-acetophenone-oxime ethers

A process for combating fungi, wherein the areas in which fungi are to be completed are treated with an effective amount of an azolylacetophenone-oxime ether of the formula ##STR24## where R.sup.1 is alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 3 to 4 carbon atoms, alkynyl of 3 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, benzyl, benzyl mono- or polysubstituted in the phenyl ring with F, Cl, Br or CF.sub.3, or R.sup.1 is the group ##STR25## wherein the isoxazole ring can be substituted with methyl, ethyl, or halogen, R.sup.2 is hydrogen or halogen, n is 1, 2 or 3 and Az is 1,2,4-triazolyl, or a salt or metal complex thereof.

A triazole derivative selected from the group consisting of 2,4-dichloro-.omega.-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-acetophenone-oxime O-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl) ether hydrochloride, 2,4-dichloro-.omega.-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-acetophenone-oxime O-ethyl ether hydrochloride, 2,4-dichloro-.omega.-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-acetophenone-oxime O-allyl ether nitrate, 2,4-dichloro-.omega.-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-acetophenone-oxime O-propargyl ether nitrate and 2,4-dichloro-.omega.-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-acetophenone-oxime O-methyl ether hydrochloride.
