is understood to be phenyl. Scheme A describes the general procedure for the preparation of compounds of the Formula (I). These 3-heterocyclic-3,4,5-substituted isoxazolidines are prepared by the reaction of nitrones (V) with substituted alkenes (VI). The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones to alkenes is described in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry , Vol 21., pp.207-251, 1977; Angewandte Chem. Int. Ed, Vol. 2, 565-598, 1963; Synthesis, 205-221, 1975 and in J.Org. Chemistry , Vol. 49, 276-1281, 1984 and references cited therein. The cycloaddition can proceed to provide two regioisomers one of which is shown in Scheme A of formula I where R 4 and R 5 are bonded to the carbon adjacent to the oxygen of the isoxazolidine. The other regioisomer, where R 2 and R 3 are bonded to the carbon adjacent to the oxygen of the isoxazolidine are also the subject of this invention. The regioisomers, when formed can be separated by conventional techniques such as thin layer or column chromatography. The reaction of N-substituted-3,3-disubstituted nitrones of formula V or V' are conducted in solvents such as benzene, toluene and chlorobenzene at temperatures of 50°C to the solvent boiling point and preferably at reflux in toluene. The olefins utilized can be tetrasubstituted olefins (VI), as shown in scheme A but are most often α,α-disubstituted olefins (VI where R 2 , R 3 =H) and monosubstituted olefins (VI' where R 4 =H) such as substituted styrenes, allylethers and acrylates. The isoxazolidines of the present invention can exist in diastereomeric forms. For example when monosubstituted olefins are employed the substituents H and R 5 can be cis or trans to the C-3 heterocycle. The cis and trans isomers can be separated by standard chromatographic techniques. When separated the isomers are designated isomer A or isomer B with isomer A possessing the higher Rf on thin layer chromatography. when R 1 is C(R 6 R 7 R 8 ) and R 2 = R 3 =H Scheme B describes the general procedure for the preparation of nitrones V and V'. The nitrones of the present invention are N-substituted-α,α-disubstituted such that the alpha substituents must be non-hydrogen substituents. The chemistry of nitrones, both preparations and reactions, are described in Chem Reviews, Vol. 64, 473-495, 1964. The nitrones of the present invention are derived from ketones which bear one heterocycle in the form of 3-pyridyl or 5-pyrimidinyl rings and the other substituent as R 1 defined previously. The nitrones are prepared from the corresponding ketone in a hydroxylic solvent such as methanol or ethanol, preferably ethanol, at room temperature to reflux, preferably at room temperature, by the reaction with an R-NHOH for example N-methylhydroxylamine in the form of the hydrochloride salt in the presence of sodium acetate. The nitrone is isolated by removing the solvent followed by trituration of the resulting wet solid with methylene chloride with isolation of the nitrone from the filtrate. The nitrones are used directly in the cycloaddition reactions described in scheme A. when R 1 is C(R 6 R 7 R 8 ) The ketones of formula VII and VII' bearing a 3-pyridyl or 5-pyrimidinyl substituents can be prepared by standard synthesis techniques or in the case of 3-acetylpyridine is commercially available. For example March, Advanced Organic Chemistry , 4th Ed, pp. 963-965, and references cited therein, describe the preparation of ketones from nitriles by addition of a Grignard reagent, RMgBr, or an organolithium such as RLi. Pyridyl ketones can be prepared by Friedel Crafts acylation as described in Organic Synthesis , Vol. 37, 1957, by magnesium catalyzed acylation to form acetylpyridines as described in Tetrahedron Vol. 48, pp.9233-9236, 1992, and from pyridyl esters by classical Claisen condensation as described in JACS. Vol. 69, 119, 1947 and Vol. 76, 5452, 1954. When the reaction of the nitrones, V and V', with olefins (VI and VI') provides incomplete conversion to the isoxazolidines (I), mixtures of (I) and (VII) are isolated. To remove the unwanted ketones VII and VII' the mixture is exposed to an alkylhydroxylamine in an alcoholic solvent in the presence of sodium acetate and is stirred at room temperature. The solvent is removed and the residue is dissolved in an organic solvent which is washed thoroughly with water. The water soluble nitrone is removed in the aqueous phase and the resulting organic phase contains the pure desired product. The compounds of this invention can be made according to the following procedures: Example 1 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,3-dimethyl-3-(3-pyridyl)isoxazolidine (Compounds 1.4, 1.4A and 1.4B of Table I) In a 500ml 3-necked RB flask was added 35g (0.233mol) of 3-pyridyl-N-methyl ethylimine N-oxide and 32.3g of p -chlorostyrene (0.233mol, 1eq.) in 200mL toluene and was heated to reflux (110°C) for 5 hours. The reaction is monitored by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) (1:1 Hex/EtOAc). Upon consumption of the p-chlorostyrene the reaction was cooled to room temperature. The toluene was extracted with 300mL of 10% HCl, then 100mL of 10% HCl. The acid layer was then washed once with 100mL toluene. The toluene portion was discarded and the acid portion was taken to pH 6 with 10% NaOH. This aqueous portion was extracted with several 200ml portions of ethyl acetate. Washed the EtOAc with water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and stripped to yield an 32 g of an orange oil which was a mixture of the desired product and 3-acetylpyridine. The crude reaction mixture was purified by the following process. 32g of the crude mixture as an orange oil was treated with 10g of N-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride, and 20g of sodium acetate in a 500mL RB flask with 100mL of absolute ethanol. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The solvent was removed and the residue was dissolved in 150mL of ethyl acetate which was wased with 2 x 100mL water and 1 x 100mL brine. The solvent was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and stripped to yield 15.6g of an orange oil whose 300MHz 1 H NMR was consistent with 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,3-dimethyl-3-(3-pyridyl)isoxazolidine as a 2:1 mixture of isomer A (higher Rf on TLC): isomer B (lower Rf on TLC).

Following codes were used s= singlet, d = doublets, t = triplets, m = multiplets, br = broad peak Example 4 Numerous compounds of this invention were tested for fungicidal activity in vivo against the diseases described below. The compounds were dissolved in a 1:1 mixture of acetone and methanol or N,N-dimethylformamide and diluted with a 2:1:1 mixture of water, acetone and methanol (by volume) to achieve the appropriate concentration. The solution was sprayed onto plants and allowed to dry for two hours. Then the plants were inoculated with fungal spores. Each test utilized control plants which were sprayed with the appropriate solvent and inoculated. For these protective tests, the plants were inoculated one day after treating the plants with the compounds of this invention. The remainder of the technique of each of the tests is given below along with the results for various compounds described herein by the Compound # against the various fungi at a dose of 100 or 150 grams per hectare. The results are percent disease control as compared to the untreated check wherein one hundred was rated as complete disease control and zero as no disease control. The percent disease control is reported in activity groups wherein A is 90 - 100% disease control, B is 70-89% control , C is 50-69% control and D is less than 50% disease control The application of the test fungal spores to the test plants was as follows: Wheat Leaf Blotch (SNW) Cultures of Septoria nodorum were maintained on Czapek-Dox V-8 juice agar plates in an incubator at 20°C with alternating periods of 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness for 2 weeks. A water suspension of the spores was obtained by shaking the portion of the plate with fungal material in deionized water and filtering through cheesecloth. The spore-containing water suspension was diluted to a spore concentration of 3.0 x 10 6 spores per ml. The inoculum was dispersed by a DeVilbiss atomizer over one-week old Fielder wheat plants which had been previously sprayed with the fungicide compound. The inoculated plants were placed in a humidity cabinet at 20°C with alternating 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness for 7 days. The inoculated seedlings were then moved to a controlled environment room at 20°C for 2 days of incubation. Disease control values were recorded as percent control. Wheat Powdery Mildew (WPM) Erysiphe graminis (f. sp. tritici ) was cultured on wheat seedlings, cultivar Fielder, in a controlled temperature room at 18°C. Mildew spores were shaken from the culture plants onto 7-day old wheat seedlings which had been previously sprayed with the fungicide compound. The inoculated seedlings were kept in a controlled temperature room at 18°C and subirrigated. The percent disease control was rated 7 days after the inoculation. Cucumber Powdery Mildew (CPM) Sphaerotheca fulginea was maintained on cucumber plants, cultivar Bush Champion, in the greenhouse. Inoculum was prepared by placing five to ten heavily mildewed leaves in a glass jar with 500ml of water containing 1 drop of Tween 80 per 100 ml. After shaking the liquid and leaves, the inoculum was filtered through cheese cloth and misted onto the plants with a squirt bottle mister. The spore count was 100,000 spores/ml. The plants were then placed in the greenhouse for infection and incubation. The plants were scored seven days after inoculation. Disease control values were recorded as percent control. Rice Blast (RB) Cultures of Pyricularia oyrzae were maintained on potato dextrose agar for two to three weeks. The spores were washed from the agar with water containing 1 drop of Tween 80 per 100 ml. After filtering the spore suspension through two layers of cheese cloth, the spore count was adjusted to 5 x 10 5 spores/ml. The spore suspension was sprayed onto 12-day old rice plants, cultivar M-1, using a DeVilbiss atomizer. The inoculated plants were placed in a humidity at chamber 20°C for 36 hours to allow for infection. After the infection period the plants were placed in the greenhouse. After 6 days, the plants were scored for disease control. Botrytis on Cucumber (BOT) Cucumber plants were maintained in the greenhouse. Large, fully expanded leaves were collected from the plates. The stems were wrapped with cotton, the leaves were placed in a large petri plate (15-cm. diameter) and the leaves were supported by glass rods. The upper cover of the plate was removed and the upper surface of the detached cucumber leaf was sprayed with the compounds of the present invention. The leaf was allowed to dry in the air for approximately 2 hours. The cultures of Botrytis cinerea were maintained on potato dextrose agar for two to three weeks. Agar plugs, 6-mm. in diameter, were cut with a cork borer from the periphery of the fungal colony margin. These agar plugs were placed with the fungal surface in contact with the treated upper surface of the cucumber leaf. Each leaf received two mycelial plugs. After placing the petri plate cover over the leaves, the plates were returned to a controlled environmental chamber at 20°C and 90% humidity for three to four days. After this time, the diameter of the lesions produced by the mycelial plug was measured. The average lesion size was compared to the lesion size produced on the control leaves. Data were expressed as percent control. Cucumber Downy Mildew (CDM) Cucumber plants were maintained in the greenhouse. Large, fully expanded leaves were collected from the plates. The stems were wrapped with cotton, the leaves were placed in a large petri plate (15-cm. diameter) and the leaves were supported by glass rods. The upper cover of the plate was removed and the upper surface of the detached cucumber leaf was sprayed with the compounds of the present invention. The leaf was allowed to dry in the air for approximately 2 hours. The cultures of Pseudoperonospora cubensis were maintained on cucumber plants. After extracting the spores by shaking the leaves in water, the lower surface of the treated cucumber leaves were sprayed with a spore concentration of 100,000 spores per ml. The plates were returned to a controlled environmental chamber at 20°C and 90% humidity for five days. After this time, leaves were examined for disease development. Data was expressed as percent control. When tested against wheat leaf blotch at 300 grams per hectare compound 1.7 exhibited control in the B rating group When tested against wheat powdery mildew at 300 grams per hectare compounds 1.04A, 1.10, and 1.51 exhibited control in the A rating group and compounds 1.7, 1.13 and 1.63 exhibited control in the B rating group. When tested against cucumber powdery mildew at a dose of 300 grams per hectare, 1.04 exhibited control in the A rating group and 1.23 in the B rating group. When tested against rice blast at 300 grams per hectare compounds 1.04, 1.10, 1.39 and 1.51 exhibited control in the B rating group. When tested against cucumber gray mold at 300 grams per hectare compounds 1.04A, 1.9 and 1.10 exhibited control in the A rating group and 1.13, 1.39 and 1.51 exhibited control in the B rating group. When tested against cucumber downy mildew at 300 grams per hectare compounds 1.04A, 1.15 and 1.51 exhibited control in the A rating group. The compounds of this invention are useful as agricultural fungicides and, as such, can be applied to various loci such as the seed, the soil or the foliage of plants to be protected. The compounds of this invention can be applied as fungicidal sprays by methods commonly employed, such as conventional high-volume hydraulic sprays, low-volume sprays, air-blast spray, aerial sprays and dusts. The dilution and rate of application will depend upon the type of equipment employed, the method of application, plants to be treated and diseases to be controlled. Generally, the compounds of this invention will be applied in amount of from about 0.005 kilogram to about 50 kilograms per hectare and preferably from about 0.025 to about 25 kilograms per hectare of the active ingredient. As a seed protectant, the amount of toxicant coated on the seed is usually at a dosage rate of from about 0.05 to about 20, preferably from about 0.05 to about 4, and more preferably from about 0.1 to about 1 grams per hundred kilograms of seed. As a soil fungicide the chemical can be incorporated in the soil or applied to the surface usually at a rate of from about 0.02 to about 20, preferably from about 0.05 to about 10, and more preferably from about 0.1 to about 5 kilograms per hectare. As a foliar fungicide, the toxicant is usually applied to growing plants at a rate of from about 0.01 to about 10, preferably from about 0.02 to 5, and more preferably from about 0.25 to about 1 kilograms per hectare. Inasmuch as the compounds of this invention display fungicidal activity, these compounds can be combined with other known fungicides to provide broad spectrum activity. Suitable fungicides include, but are not limited to, those compounds listed in U.S. Patent Number 5,252,594 (see in particular columns 14 and 15). Other known fungicides which an be combined with the compounds of this invention are dimethomorph, cymoxanil, thifluzamide, furalaxyl, ofurace, benalaxyl, oxadixyl, propamocarb, cyprofuram, fenpiclonil, fludioxonil, pyrimethanil, cyprodinil, triticonazole, fluquinconazole, metconazole, spiroxamine, carpropamid, azoxystrobin, kresoxim-methyl, metominostrobin and trifloxystrobin. The compounds of this invention can be advantageously employed in various ways. Since these compounds possess broad spectrum fungicidal activity, they can be employed in the storage of cereal grain. These compounds can also be employed as fungicides in cereals including wheat, barley and rye, in rice, peanuts, beans and grapes, on turf, in fruit, nut and vegetable orchards, and for golf course applications. Examples of diseases against which the compounds of the invention are useful include helminthosporium of corn and barley, wheat and barley powdery mildew, wheat leaf and stem rusts, barley stripe and leaf rust, tomato early blight, tomato late blight, peanut early leaf spot, grape powdery mildew, grape black rot, apple scab, apple powdery mildew, cucumber powdery mildew, brown rot of fruits, botrytis, bean powdery mildew, cucumber anthracnose, wheat septoria nodorum, rice sheath blight and rice blast The compounds of the present invention can be used in the form of compositions or formulations. Examples of the preparation of compositions and formulations can be found in the American Chemical Society publication "Pesticidal Formulation Research," (1969), Advances in Chemistry Series No. 86, written by Wade Van Valkenburg; and the Marcel Dekker, Inc. publication "Pesticide Formulations", (1973) edited by Wade Van Valkenburg. In these compositions and formulations, the active substance is mixed with conventional inert agronomically acceptable (i.e., plant compatible and/or pesticidally inert) pesticide diluents or extenders such as solid carrier material or liquid carrier material, of the type usable in conventional pesticide compositions or formulations. By "agronomically acceptable carrier" is meant any substance which can be used to dissolve, disperse or diffuse the active ingredient in the composition without impairing the active ingredient's effectiveness and which by itself has no significant detrimental effect on the soil, equipment, desirable plants, or agronomic enviornment. If desired, adjuvants such as surfactants, stabilizers, antifoam agents and anti-drift agents may also be combined. Examples of compositions and formulations according to the invention are aqueous solutions and dispersions, oily solutions and oil dispersions, pastes, dusting powders, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, flowables, granules, baits, invert emulsions, aerosol compositions and fumigating candles. Wettable powders, pastes, flowables and emulsifiable concentrates are concentrated preparations which are diluted with water before or during use. In such formulations, the compounds are extended with a liquid or solid carrier and, when desired, suitable surfactants are incorporated. Baits are preparations generally comprising a food or other substance attractive to insects, that includes at least one compound of the instant invention. It is usually desirable, particularly in the case of foliar spray formulations, to include adjuvants, such as wetting agents, spreading agents, dispersing agents, stickers, adhesive and the like in accordance with agricultural practices. A listing of such adjuvants commonly used in the art, and a discussion of adjuvants, can be found in many references, such as in the John W. McCutcheon, Inc. publication "Detergents and Emulsifiers, Annual." The active compounds of the present invention may be employed alone or in the form of mixtures with one another and/or with such solid and/or liquid dispersible carrier vehicles and/or with other known compatible active agents; especially plant protection agents, such as other insecticides, arthropodicides, nematicides, fungicides, bactericides, rodenticides, herbicides, fertilizers, growth-regulating agents, synergists. In the compositions of the invention, the active compound is present in an amount substantially between about 0.0001 (1:999,999) -99 (99:1) % by weight. For compositions suitable for storage or transportation, the amount of active ingredient is preferably between about 0.5 (1:199) -90 (9:1) % by weight, and more preferably between about 1(1:99) -75 (3:1) % by weight of the mixture. Compositions suitable for direct application or field application generally contain the active compound in an amount substantially between about 0.0001 (1:999,999) -95 (19:1) %, preferably between about 0.0005 (1:199,999) -90 (9:1) % by weight, and more preferably between about 0.001 (1:99,999)-75 (3:1) % by weight of the mixture. The composition can also be stated as a ratio of the compound to the carrier. In the present invention the weight ratio of these materials (active compound/carrier) can vary from 99:1 (99%) to 1:4 (20%) and more preferably from 10:1 (91%) to 1:3 (25%). In general, the compounds of this invention can be dissolved in certain solvents such as acetone, methanol, ethanol, dimethylformamide, pyridine or dimethyl sulfoxide and such solutions can be diluted with water. The concentrations of the solution can vary from about 1% to about 90% with a preferred range being from about 5% to about 50%. For the preparation of emulsifiable concentrates, the compound can be dissolved in suitable organic solvents, or a mixture of solvents, together with an emulsifying agent to enhance dispersion of the compound in water. The concentration of the active ingredient in emulsifiable concentrates is usually from about 10% to about 90%, and in flowable emulsion concentrates, can be as high as about 75%. Wettable powders suitable for spraying, can be prepared by admixing the compound with a finely divided solid, such as clay, inorganic silicate and carbonate, and silica and incorporating wetting agents, sticking agents, and/or dispersing agents in such mixtures. The concentration of active ingredients in such formulations is usually in the range of from about 20% to about 99%, preferably from about 40% to about 75%. A typical wettable powder is made by blending 50 parts of a compound of Formula I, 45 parts of a synthetic precipitated hydrated silicon dioxide, such as that sold under the trademark Hi-SilR, available from PPG Industries, Pittsburgh, PA, and 5 parts of sodium lignosulfonate. In another preparation a kaolin type (Barden) clay is used in place of the Hi-Sil in the above wettable powder, and in another such preparation 25% of the Hi-Sil is replaced with a synthetic sodium silicoaluminate sold under the trademark Zeolex®3. Dusts are prepared by mixing compounds of Formula I, or the enantiomorphs, salts and complexes thereof with finely divided inert solids which can be organic or inorganic in nature. Materials useful for this purpose include botanical flours, silicas, silicates, carbonates and clays. One convenient method of preparing a dust is to dilute a wettable powder with a finely divided carrier. Dust concentrates containing from about 20% to about 80% of the active ingredient are commonly made and are subsequently diluted to from about 1% to about 10% use concentration. The active compounds can be applied as insecticide sprays by methods commonly employed, such as conventional high-gallonage hydraulic sprays, low gallonage sprays, ultra-low-volume sprays, airblast spray, aerial sprays, and dusts. The present invention also contemplates methods of killing, combatting or controlling pests which comprises contacting pests with a combative or toxic amount (i.e. a pesticidally effective amount) of at least one active compound of the invention alone or together with a carrier vehicle (composition or formulation) as noted above. The term "contacting" as employed in the specification and claims means applying to at least one of (a) such pests and (b) the corresponding habit at thereof (i.e., the locus to be protected, for example, to a growing crop or to an area where a crop is to be grown) the active compound of this invention alone or as a constituent of a composition or formulation. In addition to the aforementioned ingredients the preparations according to the invention may also contain other substances commonly used in preparations of this kind. For example, a lubricant, such as calcium stearate or magnesium stearate, may be added to a wettable powder or to a mixture to be granulated. Furthermore there may, for example, be added "adhesives" such as polyvinylalcohol-cellulose derivatives or other colloidal materials, such as casein, to improve the adherence of the pesticide to the surface to be protected.
