Abstract

Ortho-substituted benzyl esters of cyclopropanecarboxylic acids I ##STR1## where X is N or CH and A is one of the following cyclopropane radicals: ##STR2## where R.sup.1 is CN, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, CF.sub.3, C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 -alkenyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxycarbonyl, unsubstituted or substituted phenyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl or phenyl-C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl, ethoxyphenyl, 2- or 3-bromophenyl, 2- or 4-trifluoromethylphenyl, 2,4- or 2,6-difluorophenyl, 2-fluoro-6-chlorophenyl, 2,4- or 2,6-dimethylphenyl, 2,3,6-trichlorophenyl or trimethylsilyl, R.sup.2 is H or halogen, R.sup.3 is unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, R.sup.4 is CH.sub.3 or halogen and Hal is halogen, with the proviso that X is CH when R.sup.1 is CF.sub.3 or trimethylsilyl, are suitable as fungicides and for controlling pests.
