Abstract

Compounds of Formula I are disclosed which are useful as fungicides whereinR1 is hydrogen; halogen; C1-C2 alkoxy; C1-C2 haloalkoxy; cyano; or C1-C2 alkyl optionally substituted with halogen, C1-C2 alkoxy or cyano;R2 is hydrogen; halogen; or C1-C4 alkyl optionally substituted with halogen, C1-C2 alkoxy or cyano;R3 is hydrogen; halogen; C1-C4 alkoxy; C1-C4 haloalkoxy; or C1-C4 alkyl optionally substituted with halogen, C1-C2 alkoxy or cyano; orR2 and R3 can be taken together as —CH2CH2—;R4 is C1-C2 alkyl;R5 is R6, CH(R8)OR6, CH(R8)CH(R7)R6 or C(R8)═C(R7)R6; andR6, R7 and R8 are as defined in the disclosure.Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula I and a method for controlling plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens which involves applying an effective amount of a compound of Formula I.
