Claims15
A cyclohexenol derivative of the formula I ##STR19## wherein R.sub.1 is a tetrahydropyran, a tetrahydrothiopyran, a 1-oxo-tetrahydrothiopyran, or a 1,1-dioxo-tetrahydrothiopyran radical, X is hydrogen wherein R.sup.1 is a pyran or thiopyran radical, is hydrogen or methoxycarbonyl, R.sup.2 is alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R.sup.3 is alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 3 or 4 carbon atoms, haloalkenyl of 3 or 4 carbon atoms and 1 to 3 halogen substituents, or propargyl, and A is a radical of the general structure DE, where D is methylene, CO or SO.sub.2 and E is an alkyl or alkenyl radical of not more than 20 carbon atoms, unsubstituted or methyl-substituted cycloalkyl of not more than 6 carbon atoms, or styryl, or is a phenyl or benzyl radical which is unsubstituted or substituted by not more than 3 substituents from the group consisting of halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy and nitro, or is a 1-methylbenzyl or 1,1-dimethylbenzyl radical which is unsubstituted or substituted by halogen or methoxy, or is haloalkyl of note more than 3 carbon atoms and not more than 3 halogen atoms, alkoxymethyl, acetoxymethyl or alkoxycarbonylalkyl, or is phenoxyalkyl which is unsubstituted or substituted in the phenoxy moiety by not more than 3 substituents from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, alkoxy and methylsulfonyl, and which possesses a straight-chain or branched alkylene chain of not more than 5 carbon atoms, or
- A is a radical of the formula ##STR20## where R.sup.4 is phenyl which is substituted by trifluoromethyl, halogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, or
- A is a radical of the formula ##STR21## where R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are each halogen or CF.sub.3.
A cyclohexanol derivative(I) as defined in claim 11, wherein R.sup.1 is tetrahydropyran.
