  "abstract": "Amide derivatives of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R 1 is phenyl optionally substituted with halogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halo-lower alkoxy, methylenedioxy, lower alkylthio or cyano; R 2 is hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl or C 3 -C 5 alkenyl; X is oxygen or sulfur R 3 is lower alkyl, lower haloalkyl or lower alkenyl; and E is --CN. These amides possess fungicidal and herbicidal properties.",
  "claims": [

An amide derivative of the formula (I) ##STR21## wherein R 1 is phenyl optionally substituted with halogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halo-lower alkoxy, methylenedioxy, lower alkylthio or cyano; R 2 is hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl or C 3 -C 5 alkenyl; X is oxygen or sulphur; R 3 is lower alkyl, lower haloalkyl or lower alkenyl; and E is --CN.",
    "2. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein R 1 is phenyl optionally substituted in the ring with fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine, C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 alkoxy, methylenedioxy, C 1-4 alkylthio, or C 1-4 haloalkyl; R 2 is hydrogen, C 1-4 alkyl or allyl; and R 3 is C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 haloalkyl or C 3-4 alkenyl.",
    "3. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein R 1 is phenyl substituted at any of the 3-, 4- or 5-positions.",
    "4. An amide derivative according to claim 1, wherein R 2 is hydrogen.",
    "5. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein R 3 is allyl or a C 1-4 alkyl group.",
    "6. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein X is oxygen.",
    "7. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein R 2 is hydrogen, X is oxygen and R 3 is C 1-4 alkyl.",
    "8. An amide derivative selected from the group consisting of compounds of the formula: ##STR22##",
    "9. An amide derivative according to claim 1 wherein R 1 is halophenyl, R 2 is hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl or C 3 -C 5 alkenyl, E is -CN, X is oxygen and R 3 is C 1 -C 4 alkyl or C 3 -C 5 alkenyl.",
    "10. An amide derivative according to claim 9 and having the formula: ##STR23##",
    "11. A pesticidal composition comprising an effective amount of a compound according to claim 9 and a pesticidally acceptable carrier therefor.",
    "12. A pesticidal composition comprising an effective amount of a compound according to claim 10 and a pesticidally acceptable carrier therefor.",
    "13. A method for combating plant fungi which comprises applying to said fungi, to the plant, to the seed thereof or to the locus of the plant or seed an effective amount of a compound according to claim 9.",
    "14. A method for combating plant fungi which comprises applying to said fungi, to the plant, to the seed thereof or to the locus of the plant or seed an effective amount of a compound according to claim 10.",
    "15. A pesticidal composition comprising as an active ingredient, an effective amount of an amide derivative as defined in claim 1 together with a carrier or diluent.",
    "16. A method of inhibiting the growth of unwanted plants, which comprises applying to the plants, or to the locus thereof, a phytotoxic amount of a compound as defined in claim 1.",
    "17. A method for combating fungi which comprises applying to the fungi, or the locus thereof, a fungicidally effective amount of a compound as defined in claim 1.",
    "18. A method of combating fungal disease in a plant which comprises applying to the plant, to the seed of the plant, or to the locus of the plant, or seed, a compound as defined in claim 1."
