Abstract
Disclosed as novel compounds are 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid monoamide and the lower alkyl esters and salts thereof, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaramide mononitrile and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaramide. 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid monoamide and derivatives thereof exhibit anti-germination and anti-growth utility against a wide variety of perennial and annual weed grasses. 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaramide mononitrile and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaramide have utility as intermediates in the preparation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid monoamide.
