Claims11
A stabilized composition comprising a compound of the formula:
- ##STR5## wherein Y is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, unsubstituted or halo substituted alkenyl or alkynyl, and unsubstituted or substituted cycloalkyl, aralkyl or aryl and R and R.sup.1 are hydrogen, halo or alkyl and an effective amount of an orthoester of the formula:
- C X(OR.sup.2)(OR.sup.3)(OR.sup.4) wherein X is hydrogen, alkyl, OR.sup.5 or aryl;
- R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are the same or different radical selected from alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or arylalkyl.
A method for stabilizing a compound of the formula ##STR7## wherein Y is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, unsubstituted or halo substituted alkenyl, and unsubstituted or substituted cycloalkyl, aralkyl or aryl and R and R.sup.1 are hydrogen, halo or alkyl, useful for inhibiting the growth of bacteria, fungi, or algae in a locus subject to contamination by bacteria, fungi, or algae, comprising using in association with said compound an effective stabilizing amount of an orthoester of the formula:
- CS(OR.sup.2)(OR.sup.3)(OR.sup.4) wherein X is hydrogen, alkyl, OR.sup.5 or aryl, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are the same or different radical selected from alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or arylalkyl.
