Certain ethanolamine analogs and related compounds useful for the control of nematodes that infect plants or plant sites are described. Nematodes that parasitize vertebrates can also be controlled using the methods and compounds herein. Claim 1: A nematicidal composition, comprising: an effective amount of a compound or mixture of compounds having the formula (1) in which: each R1, R2 and R3 is, independently, an alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl group or mono or multi-substituted or unsubstituted aromatic (for example aryl, phenylazophenyl, pyrrolidine, benzotriazole, benzoimidazole, imidazole, indole, purine, pyrimidine groups) or a hydroxy, alkoxy, oxo or H; each R4 and R5 is, independently, H or halogen; n = 0 or 1; X = -H or an alkyl group or -OH or -OPO3H2 (phosphate), or -PO3H2 (phosphonate), or -SO3H (sulfonate), or -SO2F (sulfonyl fluoride), -SO2NH2 (sulfonamide), -NHSO2CF3 (trifluoromethyl sulfonamide ), - SO2CF3 (trifluoromethylsulfone), -OPO3R6R7 (phosphate ester or diester), -PO3R6R7 (phosphonate ester or diester), -SO3R6 (sulfonate ester); R6 = alkyl, phenyl alkoxyalkyl or unsubstituted, mono-substituted or multi-substituted alkoxyaryl; R7 = alkyl, phenyl alkoxyalkyl or unsubstituted, mono-substituted or multi-substituted alkoxyaryl. |
