Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of phenethyl acrylamides of formula (I) for controlling phytopathogenic fungi, wherein the substituents of said phenethyl acrylamides have the following significations: X signifies halogen, alkyl, halogenalkyl, alkoxy halogenalkoxy and -O-C(Ra, Rb)-C C-R?6; Ra, Rb and Rc¿ have the signification given in the description; m, n independently signify 1 to 4, the radicals X or Y being potentially different if m or n is higher than 1; Y signifies halogen, nitro, cyano, alkyl, CF¿3?, alkoxy and phenyl; R?1, R2¿ independently signify hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy, halogenalkoxy and CF¿3?; R?3, R4, R5, and R6¿ independently signify hydrogen, alkyl and alkoxy, or R?3 and R4¿ together form a cyclopropyl ring, whereby the C-R5 and C-R6 bonds can be in position E or Z in relation to each other. The invention also relates to novel phenethyl acrylamides, a method for the production thereof, and agents containing the same.
