Abstract: Novel diphenyl and loweralkyl substituted diphenyl polyamines are useful antimicrobial agents, as well as algae inhibitors. They are especially useful because of their low toxicity, and as such are advantageously included as the active agent in surgical scrubs, antibacterial soaps, as preservatives in cosmetic preparations, and the like. They also can be used for topical treatment of dermatological conditions having a bacterial origin or implication such as Acne vulgaris.

Abstract: A process for preparing 1-[1,5-di-(3,3-dimethylnorborn-2-yl)-3-pentyl]-1,5,9-triazanonane from 1,5-di-(3,3-dimethylnorborn-2-yl)-3-pentanone by reaction with ammonia to form, after reduction, 3-amino-[1,5-di-(3,3-dimethylnorborn-2-yl)pentane]. This latter compound is reacted with acrylonitrile, reduced, and the diamine product again reacted with acrylonitrile and again reduced. Alternative routes wherein the ketone is reduced to the novel alcohol and optionally the novel halide and either then reacted with 3,3'-iminobispropylamine to form the desired polyamine are also shown.

Abstract: An antimicrobial composition for secondary and tertiary oil recovery comprising a flooding composition consisting of displacement and driving fluids having incorporated therein an antimicrobially effective amount of a di-bicyclo[3.1.1] or [2.2.1] heptyl or di-bicyclo[3.1.1] and [2.2.1] heptenyl polyamines or salts thereof.

Abstract: Novel dicyclohexyl, dicyclohexenyl and cyclohexylcyclohexenylalkyl polyamines are useful antimicrobial agents, as well as algae inhibitors. They are especially useful in agriculture to protect plants against diseases such as leaf, stem, and fruit spotting, internal discoloration and decay of fruits and vegetables. These compounds are particularly active against diseases caused by the genera Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas, Erwinia, and Corynebacterium.

Abstract: Novel compounds of the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R' is alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, X.sup.- is a nontoxic anion; b and c are positive numbers having values such that the positive charge of b moles of cation are neutralized by c moles of anion X.sup.- ; and -.sup.+ is a bicyclic heterocyclic base, of the group consisting of: ##STR2## wherein the dotted lines indicates that the methyl group can be present or a hydrogen group can be present, with the proviso that the two alpha methyl groups are not present at the same time, but that one alpha methyl group is required. These compounds have superior coccidiostatic activity.

Abstract: New benzimidazoles substituted at the 1-position with carbonyl substituents and at the 2-position with a 4-thiazolyl group are effective fungicides and anthelmintics. The compounds as well as processes for their preparation are described along with antifungal and anthelmintic compositions for their use. The 1-position substituent is a hydrocarbon group of from 5 to 12 carbon atoms connected to the carbonyl group through an oxygen or a sulfur atom. The compounds are generally prepared by contacting a 1-unsubstituted benzimidazole with a hydrocarbon radical substituted chloroformate or chlorothiol formate.
