The present invention relates to derivatives of compounds known for use in the field of agriculture. These derivatives differ from the parent active compound by being redox derivatives of the active compound. This is because one or more of the functional groups in the active compound is converted to another group with one or more changes, one or more of which can be considered to represent a change in oxidation state relative to the group in the original compound. Means that We generally refer to these compounds as redox derivatives. The compounds have uses as insecticides, herbicides and insect repellents. |
