Abstract

Benzimidazole anthelmintic agents of the formula (I) and their non-toxic salts, wherein R.sup.1, which is in the 5(6)-position, is either H or certain stated substituents, "alk" is a methylene or ethylene group; R.sup.2 is cyano, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkynyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkanoyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkenoxy, aryl, heteroaryl, aryl-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy) or heteroaryl-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy), in which "aryl" means phenyl optionally substituted by 1 to 3 substituents each independently selected from halo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylthio, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylsulphinyl, and C.sub.1 C.sub.4 alkylsulphonyl in which "heteroaryl" means thienyl, furyl or pyridininyl all optionally substituted by 1 to 3 substituents each independently selected from halo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylthio, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylsulphinyl and C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylsulphonyl; and R.sub.3 is a C.sub.1 - C.sub.4 alkyl group. The anthelmintic agents (I) are, unexpectedly, active topically and parenterally, and are thus suitable for spot-on, pour-on, or parental (especially…
