Abstract: This disclosure relates to alkyl N-trifluoroacetyl-N-phosphonomethylglycine amide and hydrazide derivatives, to herbicidal compositions containing same and to the herbicidal use thereof. These amide and hydrazide derivatives are useful as pre-emergent and/or post-emergent herbicides.

Abstract: An improved animal feed supplement having reduced corrosion characteristics is obtained by forming an aqueous solution containing 87-90 percent by weight 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)-butanoic acid and partially neutralizing the solution to a pH of 0.9-1.2.

Abstract: 1-(Norborn-5'-en-2'-yl) or 1-(norborn-2'-yl) substituted 1-alken-3-ols and alkan-3-ols characterized by the structural formulae ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents hydrogen or methyl, R represents an alkyl with from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 represent hydrogen or an alkyl with from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, provided that R and R.sup.2 can be --CH.sub.2 --.sub.n wherein n represents the integer 2, 3 or 4. The compounds have very pleasant, lasting floral-woody aromas and are useful as components in fragrance compositions.

Abstract: Compounds represented by the structural formulae ##STR1## wherein n is an integer 0 or 1; A, B and C each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, provided that when n is 0 at least one of A, B or C cannot be hydrogen; R represents hydrogen or an alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; D and E each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, provided that the sum of the carbon atoms in D and E does not exceed 6, provided that, in the bicyclo compounds, at least one of A, B, C, D or E must be an alkyl; m is an integer 1 through 8; F and G represent hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms; X represents ##STR2## WHEREIN P IS AN INTEGER 0 THROUGH 2 AND I and J each independently represent hydrogen or methyl, provided that if p is 0 then m must be greater than 2; provided that the sum of the carbon and oxygen atoms in the compound is no greater than 23, are useful as fragrances or as components in fragrance compositions.
