New benzonitriles, benzaldehydes and benzyl alcohols of the formula I <IMAGE> in which R¹ is methyl or ethyl, R² is alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, bicycloalkyl, bicycloalkenyl or C1-C5-alkyl-substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, bicycloalkyl or bicycloalkenyl Fluorine and Z represent the group -CN, CHO or <IMAGE> where R³ is hydrogen, cyano, C2-C4-alkynyl, C2-C4-alkenyl or C1-C4-alkyl, with the proviso that R² does not do the rest -CH2-CH = CH-B represents when B is hydrogen, alkyl or alkenyl and at the same time R¹ is methyl and Z is <IMAGE> and with the proviso that R² is not methyl or ethyl if R¹ is also Methyl and Z stands for <IMAGE> and finally with the proviso that R² does not mean methyl when R¹ simultaneously represents methyl or ethyl and Z stands for the group -CN or -CHO, and processes for their preparation. |
