  • Herbicide antidotes as safeners for reducing phytotoxicity resulting from synergistic interaction between herbicides and other pesticides
    Patent number: 5484760
    Abstract: The disclosure herein relates to means for combatting the adverse phytotoxic action to crops arising from the interaction of various herbicidal compounds and biocidal compounds, e.g., insecticidal and/or fungicidal compounds. The means employed to reduce said interaction involves the safening action of various antidotal compounds.

  • Herbicidal compositions safened by 5-heterocyclic-substituted oxazolidine dihaloacetamides compounds
    Patent number: 5256626
    Abstract: The disclosure herein relates to a new family of haloalkyl oxazolidinyl derivatives as antidotal compounds to reduce injury to crop plants by a variety of herbicides. The antidotal compounds are characterized particularly by having heterocyclyl or spiroheterocyclyl radicals attached to the 5-position of haloalkyl oxazolidine compounds and are especially useful as in-can antidotes against injury by acetanilide and thiocarbamate herbicides to corn, sorghum, soybeans, wheat, rice and other crops.
