an
acid acceptor, and the reaction mixture is stirred for a number of hours at
the
particular temperature required. Work-up in the case of the processes (a),
(b),
(c) and (d) according to the invention is in each case carried out by
customary
methods (cf. the Preparation Examples).
Salts of the compounds of the general formula (I) according to the invention
.,
can be prepared if desired. Such salts are obtained in a simple manner by
customary methods of forming salts, for example by dissolving or dispersing a
compound of the formula (I) in an appropriate solvent, for example methylene
chloride, acetone, tert-butyl methyl ether or toluene, and adding an
appropriate
base. The salts can then - if desired after prolonged stirring - be isolated
by
concentration or filtration with suction.
The active compounds according to the invention can be used as defoliants,
desiccants, haulm killers and, especially, as weed-killers. By weeds, in the
broadest sense, there are to be understood all plants which grow in locations
where they are not wanted. Whether the substances according to the invention
act as total or selective herbicides depends essentially on the amount used.
The active compounds according to the invention can be used, for example, in
connection with the following plants:
Dicotvledonous weeds of the nera~ Sinapis, Lepidium, Galium, Stellaria,

However, the use of the. active compounds according to the invention is in no
way restricted to these genera, but also extends in the same manner to other
plants.
The compounds are suitable, depending on the concentration, for the total
control of weeds, for example on industrial terrain and rail tracks, and on
paths
and squares with or without tree plantings. Equally, the compounds can be
employed for controlling weeds in perennial crops, for example afforestations,
decorative tree plantings, orchards, vineyards, citrus groves, nut orchards,
banana plantations, coffee plantations, tea plantations, rubber plantations,
oil
palm plantations, cocoa plantations, soft fruit plantings and hopfields, in
lawns,
turf and pasture-land, and for the selective control of weeds in annual crops.

The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention are preferably
suitable for the selective control of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous
weeds in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crops, both pre-emergence and
post-emergence.
Additionally, the active compounds according to the invention have a potent
microbicidal action and can be practically employed for controlling
undesirable
microorganisms. The active compounds are suitable for use as crop protection
agents, in particular as fungicides.
Fungicides in plant protection are employed for controlling
Plasmodiophoromycetes, Oomycetes, Chytridiomycetes, Zygomycetes,
Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes.
Bactericides in plant protection are employed for controlling
Pseudomonadaceae, Rhizobiaceae, Enterobacteriaceae, Corynebacteriaceae and
Streptomycetaceae.

The good toleration, by plants, of the active compounds, at the concentrations
required for controlling plant diseases, permits treatment of aerial parts of
plants, of vegetative propagation stock and seeds, and of the soil.

treatment of pomaceous fruit, such as apples, against the causative organism
of
powdery mildew in apple (Podosphaera leucotricha) and to a certain extent also
for use in rice against Pyricularia oryzae.

The active compounds can be converted into the
customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions,
wettable powders, suspensions, powders, dusting agents,
pastes, soluble powders, granules, suspo-emulsion
concentrates, natural and synthetic materials impregnated
with active compound, and very fine capsules in polymeric
substances.
These formulations are produced in a known manner,
for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders,
that is liquid solvents and/or solid carriers, optionally
with the use of surface-active agents, that is emulsifying
agents and/or dispersing agents and/or foam-forming agents.
For example, a herbicidal or fungicidal composition
comprising a herbicidally or fungicidally effective amount
of a compound of the invention in admixture with a solid
diluent or carrier, a liquefied normally gaseous diluent or
carrier, or a liquid diluent or carrier containing a surface
active agent.
In the case of the use of water as an extender,
organic solvents can, for example, also be used as auxiliary
solvents. Suitable liquid solvents are in the main:
aromatics, such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes,
chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic
hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or
methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as
cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions,
mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols, such as butanol or
glycol as well as their ethers and esters, ketones, such as
acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or

Step 1: D ibutyltin bis-2, 2, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropoxide
723 g (2.45 mol) of dibutyltin dimethoxide with 777 g (5.89 mol) of 2,2,3,3-
tetrafluoro-propanol are heated to 120°C under nitrogen. Most of the
methanol
liberated in this process is distilled off over a column. The remaining
methanol and
excess 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-propanol are then substantially removed under water
pump
vacuum (about 15 mbar), the dibutyltin bis-2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropoxide
remaining
as residue.
Step ~: Bis-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl) methyliminocarbonate
At 40°C, 175 g (2.39 mol) of methyl isothiocyanate are added dropwise
to dibutyltin
bis-2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropoxide obtained as described above, and the mixture
is then
heated under nitrogen to 120°C for 36 hours. The mixture is then
subjected to a crude
distillation, first under water pump vacuum and then under oil pump vacuum
(final
temperature in the bottom: 170°C at 1 mbar). Rectification under oil
pump vacuum
affords 555 g (77% of theory) of bis-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl)
methyliminocarbonate.
Boiling point: 73°C (15 mbar), purity: 98.3%

Step 3: 4-Methyl-5-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-propoxy)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-
3-one
555 g (1.83 mol) of bis-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl) methyliminocarbonate are
dissolved
in X00 ml of tetrahydrofuran and, with ice cooling (0°C to 5°C),
admixed with 18.7
g.(183 mmol} of pivalic acid (catalyst) and 278 g (1.83 mol) of phenyl
carbazate. The
mixture is stirred for 2 hours at 20°C and then warmed to 50°C,
resulting in a crystal
pulp that can be stirred only with difficulty. When this is heated to
80°C, the solution
becomes homogeneous again. First, at about 200 mbar, most of the
tetrahydrofuran and
then, at about 15 mbar, most of the 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-propanol and phenol
are distilled
off. The residue is then freed of the remaining volatile components at a head
temperature of 130°C and a pressure of about 0.5 mbar and then taken up
in 400 ml
of hot toluene. After cooling to 0°C, the crystalline product is
isolated by filtration
under suction.

11.85 g (0.10 mol) of 4-methylurazole are dissolved in a mixture of 100 ml of
isopropanol, 25 ml of water and 12 g of 45% strength aqueous sodium hydroxide
solution (0.30 mol ofNaOH). At 40°C, difluorochloromethane (Frigen 22)
is slowly
passed through with stirring. After 27.7 g (0.41 mol) have been passed
through, the
reaction is interrupted and the reaction mixture is cooled. The isopropanol
phase is
separated off and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is stirred
with
diethyl ether and insoluble components are filtered off. The ether phase is
concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue that remains is purified
by
preparative layer chromatography (eluent methylene chloride/methanol = 20/3).
0.9 g(5.5% oftheory) of5-difluoromethoxy-4-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-

Pre-emergence test
Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of
active
compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of
emulsifier
is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired
concentration.
Seeds of the test plants are sown in normal soil. After 24 hours, the soil is
watered
with the preparation of the active compound. It is advantageous to keep
constant the
amount of water per unit area. The concentration of the active compound in the
preparation is of no importance, only the amount of active compound applied
per
unit area being decisive. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the
plants is rated
in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. The
figures
denote:
0% - no action {like untreated control)
100% = total destruction
In this test, the compounds according to Preparation Examples 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 9, 1 l,
