Abstract: The invention concerns novel compounds of the formula I ##STR1## wherein: Y is selected from phenyl, furyl, thienyl and pyrrolyl rings (each optionally substituted by group X), optionally branched alkylene or alkylenethio(oxy)alkylene;X which may be the same or different are independently selected from halogen, nitro, alkyl, substituted alkyl, hydroxy, alkoxy, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylthio, sulfamoyl, substituted sulfamoyl, amino, substituted amino and alkanoyl;R.sup.1 is selected from hydrogen, acyl and an inorganic or organic cation;R.sup.2 is selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, haloalkenyl and alkynyl;R.sup.3 is selected from alkyl; andR.sup.4 is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, and alkoxycarbonyl.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel heterocyclyl-2-propyn-1-amines which are useful as dopamine beta hydroxylase inhibitors in the treatment of hypertension.

Abstract: The invention is related to a new process for producing imidazolylthiophenaldehydes of the general formula I ##STR1##

Abstract: This invention relates to ureas and isoureas which are useful as herbicides and plant growth regulants. In particular, compounds of the instant invention have demonstrated great selectivity.

Abstract: Novel fungicidal active thiolane-2,4-dione-3-carboxamides of the formula ##STR1## in which R is alkyl, cycloalkyl, optionally substituted aralkyl or optionally substituted aryl, andR.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, aralkyl or aryl.

Abstract: A process for preparation of chlorosulfonyl thiophene compounds comprising contacting a thiophenamine with sodium or potassium nitrite to produce a diazonium salt, then contacting said salt with sulfur dioxide and cuprous or cupric chloride, or bromide. Addition of gaseous HCl, concentrated H.sub.2 SO.sub.4, or oleum to the diazotization mixture enhances yield.
