Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: 1

Abstract: The invention provides a method of treating or inhibiting the growth of cancerous tumour cells and associated diseases in a mammal in need thereof which comprises administering to said mammal an effective amount of a substituted triazolopyrimidine derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and further provides a method of treating or inhibiting the growth of cancerous tumour cells and associated diseases in a mammal in need thereof by interacting with tubulin and microtubules and promoting microtubule polymerization which comprises administering to said mammal an effective amount of a substituted triazolopyrimidine derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: (R1, R2, R3, L1, L2 and Hal are defined in the specification) show selective fungicidal activity. These compounds may be processed with carriers, and optionally an adjuvant, to produce fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: wherein (R1, R2, R3, A, X, L and n through L5 are defined in the specification) show high fungicidal activity. The new compounds are processed with carriers and adjuvants to fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: wherein (R1, R2, Hal and L1 through L5 are defined in the specification) show selective fungicidal activity. The new compounds may be processed with carriers and adjuvants to produce fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: The novel optically active compounds of formula I: (R1, Hal and L1 through L5 are defined in the specification) wherein the enantiomeric excess of the (S)-enantiomer is at least 70%., show enhanced selective fungicidal activity. The new compounds are processed with carriers, and optionally with adjuvants, to form fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: whereinR.sup.1 represents an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkadienyl, or aryl group, or an optionally substituted cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl group, in which one CH.sub.2 group may also be replaced by O, S or NR.sup.2, in which R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group;X represents a hydrogen or halogen atom, or an alkoxy, aryloxy, aralkyloxy, haloalkoxy, alkylthio, cyano, amino, alkylamino or dialkylamino group;L.sup.1, L.sup.2, L.sup.3, L.sup.4 and L.sup.5 each independently represent an hydrogen or halogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl or alkoxy group or a nitro or cyano group show selective fungicidal activity. The new compounds are processed with carriers and, optionally, adjuvants, to afford fungicidal compositions, useful in agricultural applications.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: ##STR1## (A, L, n and R.sup.1 through R.sup.4 are defined in the specification) show selective fungicidal activity. The new compounds can be combined with carriers and adjuvants to form fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: An improved process for the preparation of (S)-1,1,1-trifluoroalkyl-2-amines of formula IIIA, ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is a C.sub.1-6 alkyl group, from the corresponding racemic mixture, which process includes treating 1 part by mole of the racemic mixture with approximately 0.3 to 0.7 part by mole of D-(-)-tartaric acid in the presence of an inert solvent.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: ##STR1## (R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, L.sup.1, L.sup.2 and Hal are defined in the specification) show selective fungicidal activity. These compounds may be processed with carriers, and optionally an adjuvant, to produce fungicidal compositions.

Abstract: The novel compounds of formula I: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, Hal and L.sup.1 through L.sup.5, are defined in the specification show selective fungicidal activity.
