Abstract: A modified strongly acidic ion exchange resin of a sulfonic acid type is disclosed. Modification is conducted by ionically binding a particular N,N-di-substituted mercaptoalkylamine to a strongly acidic ion exchange resin of a sulfonic acid type. The N,N-di-substituted mercaptoalkylamine is specifically represented by the following formulae: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents hydrogen or a C.sub.1-6 alkyl group, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 independently represent a C.sub.1-10 alkyl group, a and b denote 0-3, respectively, a+b denotes 2 or 3, and m denotes 4 or 5. The modified ion exchange resin makes an improved catalyst in the preparation of a bisphenol by the condensation reaction of a phenol with a ketone.

Abstract: A phenoxymethylpyrimidine derivative represented by the general formula (1) ##STR1## and a herbicide containing it as an effective ingredient. This compound has a high weed killing effect, a wide weed killing spectrum and high safety on crops, and is thus useful as a herbicide.whereinX denotes a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a lower acyloxy group or a nitro group,n denotes an integer of 0, 1 or 2,Y denotes a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group, a substituted lower alkyl group, a substituted lower alkenyl group, a substituted lower alkynyl group, an alkali metal atom, an alkaline earth metal atom or an ammonium cation optionally substituted by alkyl group(s), andR.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently denote a lower alkyl group.

Abstract: A compounds represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein X represents a fluorine atom,W represents an oxygen atom, sulfur atom or group --OCH.sub.2 --,Z.sup.1 and Z .sup.2 each represent a nitrogen atom or group CH, but when Z.sup.1 is a nitrogen atom, Z.sup.2 represents a nitrogen atom or group CH and when Z.sup.1 is a group CH, Z.sup.2 represents a nitrogen atom,R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently represent either a hydrogen atom, halogen atom or mono- or dilower alkyl-substituted amino, or a lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or lower alkylthio each of which may be substituted with a halogen atom,R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 form together with the carbon atoms to which they bind respectively a 5- to 8-membered carbon ring.
