     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention generally relates to compounds of pyridinium salts and methods of their use in medicine, particularly in the prophylaxis and treatment of inflammatory conditions, allergic conditions, infectious conditions, as well as immune disorders. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Vast demands exist for compounds to control microorganisms in fields other than agriculture. These include the treatment of fabrics to prevent mildew and rot; to inhibit and kill bacterial growth; the treatment of surfaces and substrates to obtain antiseptic conditions for medical, industrial, food processing and household purposes; the treatment of wood for decking or building; the formulation of ink and paints to prevent mold growth and bacterial decomposition; the prevention and treatment of human and animal diseases; and on through an almost infinite spectrum of applications touching our daily lives. 
     Fungi includes organisms such as slime molds, mushrooms, smuts, rusts, mildews, molds, stinkhorns, puffballs, truffles and yeasts. Fungi are classified in their own kingdom because they absorb food in solution directly through their cell walls and reproduce through spores. Molds are a large group of fungi that are a common trigger for allergies. Molds can exist as tiny particles called “mold spores” present in indoor and outdoor air. There are more than 100,000 species in the world. Molds may grow anywhere they can find moisture sources. Common molds include  Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus, Alternaria, Fusarium, Stachybotyrs  and  Mucor.    
     Mold has been around forever but only recently has it began to support a billion dollar industry of remediation contractors, consultants, laboratories, physicians and attorneys—as evidenced by an explosion of multi-million dollar lawsuits for property damage and personal injury. In Ballard v. Farmers Insurance case, a jury awarded a Texas homeowner $32.1 million, consisting of $6.2 million for remediation or replacement cost of the property damaged as well as living expenses; $12 million in punitive damages; $5 million for emotional distress damages; and $8.9 million in attorneys&#39; fees and costs, for mold damage to the residence. Thus, there is a need to reduce mold in buildings and homes. 
     There is a continuing need for new antibacterial agents. Although many compounds are known which are useful in the treatment of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial infections as well as other microbial infections, the widespread use of such compounds continues to give rise to resistant strains of microorganisms, i.e., strains of microorganisms against which a particular antibiotic or group of antibiotics, and chemical compositions which was previously effective, is no longer useful. Also, known antibiotics and chemical compositions may be effective against only certain strains of microorganisms or have limited activity against either Gram-positive or Gram-negative, aerobic or anaerobic organisms. 
     Stilbazium iodide is a known anthelmintic which is reported to be effective against roundworms, threadworms, and whipworms. U.S. Pat. No. 3,075,975 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,085,935 recite methods of eradicating infestations of parasitic nematodes inhabiting the intestinal tract.

     Additionally, the present invention may include compounds of the following general formula V: 
                         
or a solvate thereof, wherein n is a number from 1 to 5, wherein Z can be present at multiple positions on the phenyl ring and is selected from the group consisting of C, N, O, S and halogen, wherein X −  is an anionic salt, wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , or R 4  are independently selected from the group consisting of nothing, hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, C 1-10  alkyl (linear or branched), alkenes (linear or branched), nitriles, benzenes, pyridines, benzothiophenes, trifluoroalkyls, difluoroalkyls, substituted and unsubstituted aryl moieties and substituted and unsubstituted benzyl moieties, or wherein when R 1  and R 2  or when R 3  and R 4  are taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, they form pyrrolidino or piperidino rings.

FIGS. 1-4  illustrate various combinations of the compounds that may be formed according to the present invention. These compounds can be in the E, E configuration and can be used for any of the methods and uses disclosed in the present application.
 
     The compounds of the present invention are capable of existing as geometric isomers. All such isomers, individually and as mixtures, are included within the scope of the present invention for their industrial uses. The E,E isomer is one configuration of the invention, and both the cisoid and transoid 2,6-conformations of the E,E-configuration are possible. Additionally, the otho, ortho conformation of the structure can be formed in addition to the para and meta structures illustrated above. The ortho conformation structure can include the same salts and moieties as disclosed above and throughout the application. 
     Some of the embodiments of the present invention include 1-ethyl-(E,-E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride, 1-ethyl-(E,-E)-2,6-bis[p-(1-pyrrolidinostyryl]pyridinium chloride, 1-methyl-(E,-E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride and 1-methyl-(E,-E)-2,6-bis[p-(1-pyrrolidinostyryl]pyridinium chloride. 
     Compounds according to the invention can be made according to any suitable method of organic chemistry. More specifically, compounds of formula I can be prepared as outlined in U.S. Pat. No. 3,085,935, the disclosure of which is incorporated in its entirety. 
     Additionally, embodiments of the present invention may include the compounds produced by a synthesis that includes preparing the compounds by condensation of two equivalents of an aldehyde of formula IV. 
                         
with a quatenary ammonium salt of 2,6-lutidine
 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     The condensation may be performed in a lower alcohol with a catalyst such as a secondary amine (e.g. piperidine). When X −  in the above formula is an iodide ion (corresponding to an alkiodide salt of lutidine), the condensation product (formula I) is relatively insoluble and precipitates in the course of the reaction. The reaction yield of formula I can be nearly quantitative. Three times the amount of catalyst as stated in U.S. Pat. No. 3,085,935 can be used. Other methods may be used to produce the compound and both more or less catalyst may be employed to produce formula I. 
     Furthermore, it may be desirable to convert the iodide salt to the chloride salt. This conversion may be accomplished by size exclusion (molecular sieve) chromatography eluted and equilibrated with a suitable solvent containing an excess of ammonium chloride. The column effluent, containing the chloride salt can be obtained by evaporation of the solvent, along with the ammonium iodide by-product. The resulting product should be substantially free of the iodide salt. Alternatively, alkchloride salt of 2,6-lutidine can be reacted with an aldehyde of formula IV in the presence of a secondary amine (e.g. piperidine) to give the chloride salt of Formula I directly. 
     The present invention has surprising found that the chloride salt has an increased stability as compared to the iodide salt. Other methods known in the art may be utilized to convert the salts to UV blocker salts or surfactant salts. Other salts may include: 
     Formula A—Stilbazium p-aminobenzoate Salt 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Formula B—Stilbazium Dodecyl Sulfate Salt (Stilbazium Lauryl Sulfate Salt) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Additionally “salts” may include substituted benzophenones such as 2,4-dihydroxy benzophenone, substituted benzotriazoles, such as 2-(2-hydroxy-5′-methylphenyl) benzotriazole, substituted acrylates, such as ethyl 2-cyano-3,3-diphenyl acrylate, and salicylates, such as the 5-butyl phenyl salicylate. 
     The salts may include an ultraviolet blocker or a surfactant. As used herein “ultraviolet blocker” refers to all “photosensitive materials” which refers to all compositions and materials designed to block and/or absorb ultraviolet light. This term also refers to all photoprotective and photoresistant agents. 
     The compounds of the present invention may be used to treat all areas where molds, fungi and bacteria are grown. Examples include, but are not limited to wood, air ducts, lumber, decks, pipes, stucco, tiles, paint, insulation, roofs, building materials, metal, computer parts, food packaging, substrates, etc. 
     Another embodiment of the present invention can include the stilbazium compounds being encapsulated. As used herein the term “microcapsules” is intended to contemplate single molecules, encapsulated discrete particulate, multiparticulate, liquid multicore and homogeneously dissolved active components. The encapsulation method may provide either a water soluble or oil soluble active component encapsulated in a shell matrix of either a water or oil soluble material. The microencapsulated active component may be protected from oxidation and hydration, and may be released by melting, rupturing, biodegrading, or dissolving the surrounded shell matrix or by slow diffusion of the active component through the matrix. Microcapsules usually fall in the size range of between 1 and 2000 microns, although smaller and larger sizes are known in the art. 
     The compound of the present invention may be placed in a microcapsule or hollow fiber type used for distribution. They may also be dispersed in a polymeric material or held as a liquid. 
     An active ingredient may be placed with the compound of the present invention in a microcapsule. Examples of the active ingredient having repellent activity may include triethylene glycol monohexyl ether and N,N-diethyl-m-triamide. Examples of the active ingredient having aromatic activity include geraniol, limonene, benzyl alcohol, esters of a C 6-20  hydrocarbon, ethers, aldehydes and alcoholic compounds. Examples of the active ingredient having pesticidal activity include insecticides such as salithion, diazinon and chlorpyrifos and bactericides such as thiophanate-methyl and captan. 
     Such constituents can be encapsulated, as is desired in the case of phase change materials. Such encapsulated constituents can further be encapsulated in microcapsules. The microcapsules can be made from a wide variety of materials, including polyethylene, polypropylenes, polyesters, polyvinyl chloride, tristarch acetates, polyethylene oxides, polypropylene oxides, polyvinylidene chloride or fluoride, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl acetates, urethanes, polycarbonates, and polylactones. Further details on microencapusulation are to be found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,589,194 and 5,433,953, the contents of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Microcapsules suitable for use in the base materials of the present invention have diameters from about 1.0 to 2,000 microns. 
     No particular limitation is imposed on the shape for holding the active ingredient. In other words, there are various forms for holding the active ingredient by a holding mixture. Specific examples include microcapsules in which the surface of the active ingredient has been covered with the holding mixture; and products processed into a desired shape, each being obtained by kneading the active ingredient in the holding mixture or forming a uniform solution of the holding mixture and the active ingredient, dispersing the active ingredient in the holding mixture by the removal of the solvent or the like and then processing the dispersion into a desired shape such as single molecule, liquid, sphere, sheet, film, rod, pipe, thread, tape or chip. In addition, these processed products having a surface covered with a barrier layer for controlling the release of the active ingredient and those coated with an adhesive for improving applicability can be given as examples. As further examples, those obtained by filling the active ingredient in the holding mixture processed into a form of a capillary tube, heat sealing both ends of the capillary tube and then encapsulating the active ingredient therein; and those obtained by centrally cutting the above-mentioned capillary tube into two pieces, thereby having each one end as an opening. 
     The container formed of a holding mixture which container has an active ingredient enclosed therein as a liquid phase to secure uniform release ability over a long period of time. As such shape, tube-, bottle- or bag-shaped container is used generally. 
     When the mixture is formed into a container, the sustained release layer desirably has a thickness of at least 0.002 mm for effecting stable sustained release. There occurs no particular problem when the sustained release layer has a thickness not smaller than 0.002 mm, but that ranging from 0.005 mm to 5 mm can be used. When it exceeds 5 mm, the release amount of the compound tends to become too small. 
     For solids, the release surface area of the sustained release preparation formed of such a container is desirably 0.001 cm 2  or larger. A range of from 0.01 cm 2  to 1 cm 2  may be used. 
     When the active ingredient is enclosed and held in a container of the sustained release preparation, said container having been formed of a holding mixture, it may be enclosed in portions. The enclosed amount can be 0.5 mg to 5 mg, and may be 1 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, or 4 mg. 
     As the shape of the container formed of a holding mixture, a tube, bottle and bag can be used. In the case of the tube-shaped preparation, that having an internal diameter of 0.4 mm to 10 mm can be used. Internal diameters smaller than 0.4 mm make it difficult to fill the active ingredient in the container, while those larger than 10 mm make it difficult to conduct encapsulation. The bottle-shaped preparation is formed by blow molding or injection molding and generally has an internal volume of 0.1 to 200 ml. The bottle having an internal volume less than 0.1 ml cannot be formed easily, while that having an internal volume greater than 200 ml is not economical because there is a large difference between the amount of the active ingredient filled therein and the internal volume. In the case of a bag-shaped preparation, the amount of the active ingredient filled in the bag is desirably 1 mg to 100 g. 
     The biodegradable sustained-release preparation according to the first group of the present invention should retain its essential performance during application so that a pigment or dye, or various stabilizers such as ultraviolet absorber/blocker or antioxidant may be added to the holding mixture in order to improve the weather resistance. Alternatively, it is possible to add such an additive to the active ingredient enclosed in the container formed of a holding mixture. 
     As used herein, the term “controlled release” is intended to mean the release of a bio-active at a pre-selected or desired rate. This rate will vary depending upon the application. Desirable rates include fast or immediate release profiles as well as delayed, sustained or sequential release profiles. Combinations of release patterns, such as initial spiked release followed by lower levels of sustained release of the bio-active are also contemplated by the present invention. 
     As used herein, the term “bio-active” includes therapeutic agents such as pharmaceutical or pharmacological active agents, e.g., drugs and medicaments, as well as prophylactic agents, diagnostic agents and other chemicals or materials useful in treating or preventing conditions, infections and/or diseases. The compositions of the present invention are particularly effective in plants and other organisms. 
     In accordance with the present invention there is provided a microcapsule bacteriocide and/or fungicide composition comprising microcapsules each having a polyurea shell including as an integral part of said shell a photostable ultraviolet light absorbent compound or blocker compound having a log molar extinction coefficient of from about 2 to 5 with respect to radiation having wave lengths in the range of from about 270 to 350 nanometers and a liquid fill capable of slowly permeating the shell and comprising a pyridinium salt and a biological synergist therefor. 
     As used herein “photosensitive material” refers to all compositions and materials designed to block and/or absorb ultraviolet light. This term also refers to all photoprotective and photoresistant agents. 
     As herein used “surfactant” refers to all compositions including surfactant salt compositions that are capable of forming emulsions, micro-emulsions, suspensions, etc. 
     The entire microcapsule composition can include of 60-90 percent of liquid fill and 40-10 percent of shell wall, the liquid fill comprising 5-40 percent of pyridinium salt, 25-50 percent of biological synergist and 20-40 percent of a water-immiscible organic solvent and the shell including as an integral part thereof 0.5-20 percent of photostable ultraviolet light absorbent compound (all percentages being based on the weight of the entire microcapsule composition). 
     The pyridinium salt remains inside the microcapsules while the composition is packaged and in storage, i.e., in a closed container due to the partial pressure of the pyridinium salt surrounding the microcapsules. When the product is applied as a bacteriocide and/or fungicide, the pyridinium salt, releases slowly (the actual speed of release depending upon the thickness and porosity of the capsule walls). The pyridinium salt is chemically stable during storage and after application until it permeates the capsule walls. At that time it becomes available as a bacteriocide and/or fungicide until degraded. Since the fill permeates the shell wall slowly, the microcapsule product has a long effective bacteriocide and/or fungicide life and may be stored for extended periods (e.g. for 6 months and more). 
     Suitable fill stabilizers absorb ultraviolet radiation in the range of about 270-350 nanometers and convert it to a harmless form. They have a high absorption coefficient in the near ultraviolet portion of the spectrum (e.g. a log molar extinction coefficient of from about 2 to 5) but only minimal absorption in the visible portion of the spectrum. They do not exhibit any substantial chemical reaction with the isocyanate groups and primary amine groups of the shell forming compounds during the microencapsulation process. Among the compounds which can be used as fill stabilizers are substituted benzophenones such as 2,4-dihydroxy benzophenone, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy benzophenone, 2-hydroxy-4-octyloxy benzophenone, etc.; the benzotriazoles such as 2-(2-hydroxy-5′-methylphenyl) benzotriazole, 2-(3′,5′-diallyl-2′-hydroxylphenyl)benzotriazole, etc.; substituted acrylates such as ethyl 2-cyano-3,3-diphenyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl-2-cyano-3,3-diphenyl acetate, etc.; salicylates such as phenyl salicylates, 5-butyl phenyl salicylate, etc.; and nickel organic compounds such as nickel bis (octylphenol) sulfide, etc. Additional examples of each of these classes of fill stabilizers may be found in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. The fill stabilizers may comprise up to 5 percent, and are generally from about 0.01 to 2 percent, by weight of the microcapsule composition. 
     The embodiments of the invention also provide a process for controlling fungal and bacterial activity by contacting the fungi and bacteria with an effective level of the compositions comprising stilbazium compound as recited throughout. Contact may be accomplished directly, for example, by atomization of the composition into the air in the form of a spray. Alternatively, compositions of the present invention may be provided in various other forms, for example in sheet materials carrying the microcapsules, (e.g. tapes coated or impregnated with the microcapsules) that may be placed in areas where the fungi and bacteria may grow. 
     Another embodiment of the present invention may include heat sensitive materials which are excellent in preservation stability especially in resistance to light, and microcapsules having an ultraviolet absorber enclosed therein, which are applicable to various fields. Desirable constituents which may be present in a base material include materials which can absorb heat and protect an underlying material from overheating. Thermal energy is absorbed by the phase change of such materials without causing an increase in the temperature of these materials. Suitable phase change materials include paraffinic hydrocarbons, that is, straight chain hydrocarbons represented by the formula C n H n+2 , where n can range from 13 to 28. Other compounds which are suitable for phase change materials are 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propane diol (DMP), 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propane diol (HMP) and similar compounds. Also useful are the fatty esters such as methyl palmitate. Phase change materials that can be used include paraffinic hydrocarbons. 
     Heat sensitive recording materials are well known which utilize a color forming reaction between a colorless or light-colored basic dye and an organic or inorganic color acceptor to obtain record images by thermally bringing the two chromogenic substances into contact with each other. Such heat sensitive recording materials are relatively inexpensive, are adapted for use with recording devices which are compact and easy to maintain, and have therefore found wide applications as recording media for facsimile systems, various computers, etc. In order to improve light resistance of heat sensitive recording materials a finely divided ultraviolet absorber or blocker can be added to the heat sensitive recording layer or protective layer. 
     Another embodiment of the present invention is to provide microcapsules which have excellent retainability of ultraviolet absorber, difficult to be ruptured at a usual pressure and are excellent in ultraviolet ray absorbing efficiency. 
     Embodiments of the present invention can include a heat sensitive recording material comprising a substrate, a recording layer formed over the substrate and containing a colorless or light-colored basic dye and a color acceptor, and a protective layer formed over the recording layer, the recording material being characterized in that microcapsules having an ultraviolet absorber enclosed therein and having substantially no color forming ability are incorporated in the protective layer. 
     Further, the present invention provides microcapsules having an ultraviolet absorber and as required an organic solvent enclosed therein, which have capsule wall film of synthetic resin and mean particle size of 0.1 to 3 μm. 
     The following are examples of ultraviolet absorbers that may be used in the present invention.

Of course, the ultraviolet absorber is not limited to thereabove and can be used as required in a mixture of at least two of them. 
     Although the amount of ultraviolet absorber to be used is not limited specifically, the amount can be adjusted to 10 to 500 parts by weight, and generally from to 20 to 250 parts by weight of the ultraviolet absorber versus the active ingredient. 
     The microcapsules for use in the present invention can be prepared by various known methods. They are prepared generally by emulsifying and dispersing the core material (oily liquid) comprising an ultraviolet absorber and, if necessary, an organic solvent in an aqueous medium, and forming a wall film of high-molecular-weight substance around the resulting oily droplets. 
     Examples of useful high-molecular-weight substances for forming the wall film of microcapsules are polyurethane resin, polyurea resin, polyamide resin, polyester resin, polycarbonate resin, aminoaldehyde resin, melamine resin, polystyrene resin, styrene-acrylate copolymer resin, styrene-methacrylate copolymer resin, gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol, etc. Especially, microcapsules having a wall film of a synthetic resin, particularly polyurea resin, polyurethane resin and aminoaldehyde resin among other resins have excellent retainability of an ultraviolet absorber and high heat resistance and accordingly exhibit the outstanding additional effect to serve the function of a pigment which is to be incorporated in the protective layer for preventing sticking to the thermal head. Moreover, microcapsules having a wall film of polyurea resin or polyurethane resin are lower in refractive index than microcapsules with wall films of other materials and usual pigments, are spherical in shape and are therefore usable favorably because even if present in a large quantity in the protective layer, they are unlikely to reduce the density of record images (so-called whitening) owing to irregular reflection of light. Further, polyurea resin and polyurethane resin are more elastic than aminoaldehyde resin and therefore polyurea resin and polyurethane resin are generally used as a wall film for microcapsules which are used under a condition of high pressure. On the other hand, microcapsules having a wall film made from aminoaldehyde resin have a merit that the wall film can be controlled in thickness without depending on particle size of emulsion because the microcapsules can be prepared by adding a wall-forming material after emulsification of a core material. 
     The present invention may also include organic solvent together with an ultraviolet absorber. The organic solvent is not particularly limited and various hydrophobic solvents can be used which are used in a field of pressure sensitive manifold papers. Examples of organic solvents are tricresyl phosphate, octyldiphenyl phosphate and like phosphates, dibutyl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate and like phthalates, butyl oleate and like carboxylates, various fatty acid amides, diethylene glycol dibenzoate, monoisopropylnaphthalene, diisopropylnaphthalene and like alkylated naphthalenes, 1-methyl-1-phenyl-1-tolylmethane, 1-methyl-1-phenyl-1-xylylmethane, 1-phenyl-1-tolylmethane and like alkylated benzenes, isopropylbiphenyl and like alkylated biphenyls, trimethylolpropane triacrylate and like acrylates, ester of polyol and unsaturated carboxylic acid, chlorinated paraffin and kerosene. These solvents can be used individually or in a mixture of at least two of them. Among these hydrophobic media having a high boiling point, tricresyl phosphate and 1-phenyl-1-tolylmethane are desirable since they exhibit high solubility in connection with the ultraviolet absorber to be used in the present invention. Generally, the lower the viscosity of the core material, the smaller is the particle size resulting from emulsification and the narrower is the particle size distribution, so that a solvent having a low boiling point is conjointly usable to lower the viscosity of the core material. Examples of such solvents having a low boiling point are ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, methylene chloride, etc. 
     The amount of organic solvent to be used should be suitably adjusted according to the kind and amount of ultraviolet absorber to be used and the kind of organic solvent and is not limited specifically. For example in case of using an ultraviolet absorber which is liquid at ordinary temperature, an organic solvent is not necessarily used. However, in case of using an ultraviolet absorber which is solid at ordinary temperature, since it is desired that the ultraviolet absorber be in a fully dissolved state in the microcapsules, the amount of organic solvent, for example in case of microcapsules of polyurea resin or polyurethane resin, is adjusted generally from to usually 10 to 60 wt. %, or from to 20 to 60 wt. %, based on the combined amount of organic solvent, ultraviolet absorber and wall-forming material. Further, in case of microcapsules of aminoaldehyde resin, the amount of organic solvent is adjusted to usually 50 to 2000% by weight, generally from 100 to 1000% by weight of ultraviolet absorber. 
     Additionally, an absorber may be utilized. An absorber should be selected which reduces the sensitivity of the microcapsule in those portions of its spectral sensitivity range which interfere with the exposure of microcapsules at other wavelengths (its inactive range) without overly reducing the sensitivity of the microcapsule in those portions of the spectral sensitivity range in which the microcapsule is intended to be exposed (its active range). In some cases it may be necessary to balance the absorption characteristics of the absorber in the active range and the inactive range to achieve optimum exposure characteristics. Generally absorbers having an extinction coefficient greater than about 100/M cm in the inactive range and less than about 100,000/M cm in the active range of the microcapsule are used. When the absorber is directly incorporated into the photosensitive composition, ideally, it should not inhibit free radical polymerization, and it should not generate free radicals upon exposure. 
     The absorbers used in the present invention can be selected from among those absorbers which are known in the photographic art. Examples of such compounds include dyes conventionally used as silver halide sensitizing dyes in color photography (e.g., cyanine, merocyanine, hemicyanine and styryl dyes) and ultraviolet absorbers. A number of colored dyes which absorb outside the desired sensitivity range of the microcapsules and do not absorb heavily within the range could also be used as absorbers in the present invention. Among these, Sudan I, Sudan II, Sudan III, Sudan Orange G, Oil Red O, Oil Blue N, and Fast Garnet GBC are examples of potentially useful compounds. 
     Additionally ultraviolet absorbers that may be desirable include those selected from hydroxybenzophenones, hydroxyphenylbenzo-triazoles and formamidines. The absorbers may be used alone or in combination to achieve the spectral sensitivity characteristics that are desired. 
     Representative examples of useful hydroxybenzophenones are 2-hydroxy-4-n-octoxybenzophenone (UV-CHEK AM-300 from Ferro Chemical Division, Mark 1413 from Argus Chemical Division, Witco Chem. Corp., and Cyasorb UV-531 Light Absorber from American Cyanamid), 4-dodecyl-2-hydroxybenzophenone (Eastman Inhibitor DOBP from Eastman Kodak), 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (Cyasorb UV-9 Light Absorber from American Cyanamid), and 2,2′-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (Cyasorb UV-24 Light Absorber from American Cyanamid). Representative examples of useful hydroxybenzophenyl benzotriazoles are 2-(2′-hydroxy-5′-methylphenyl)benzotriazole (Tinuvin P from Ciba-Geigy Additives Dept.), 2-(3′,5′-ditert-butyl-2′hydroxyphenyl)-5-chlorobenzotriazole (Tinuvin 327 from Ciba-Geigy), and 2-(2-hydroxy-5-t-octylphenyl)benzotriazole (Cyasorb UV-5411 Light Absorber from American Cyanamid). Representative examples of useful formamidines are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,021,471 and include N-(p-ethoxy-carbonylphenyl)-N′-ethyl-N′-phenylformamidine (Givsorb UV-2 from Givaudan Corp.). The optimum absorber and concentration of absorber for a particular application depends on both the absorption maximum and extinction coefficient of the absorber candidates and the spectral sensitivity characteristics of the associated photoinitiators. 
     Additionally, the microcapsules, photosensitive compositions, image-forming agents, developers, and development techniques described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,399,209 and 4,440,846, the contents of which are incorporated and may be used in the present invention. 
     The compounds according to the present invention are also particularly effective against powdery mildews and rusts, pyrenophora, rhynchosporium, tapesia, fusarium and leptosphaeria fungi, in particular against pathogens of monocotyledonous plants such as cereals, including wheat and barley. They are furthermore particularly effective against downy mildew species, powdery mildews, leaf spot diseases and rusts in dicotyledonous plants. 
     The amount of the compounds of the invention to be applied, will depend on various factors such as the compound employed, the subject of the treatment (substrate), the type of treatment (e.g. spraying, dusting, seed dressing), the purpose of the treatment (prophylactic or therapeutic), the type of fungi and/or bacteria to be treated and the application time. 
     The agents may be applied before or after infection of any of the materials listed by the fungi and/or bacteria. 
     When applied to the plants the compound of formula I is applied at a rate of 25 to 250 g/ha, generally from 50 to 150 g/ha, e.g. 75, 100, 125 or 150g/ha, in association with 20 to 2000 g/ha, generally from 20 to 1000 g/ha. 
     In industrial practice the application rates of the combination depend on the type of effect desired, and range from 0.02 to 3 kg of active ingredient per hectare. 
     When the active ingredients are used for treating seed, rates of 0.001 to 50 g a.i. per kg, and generally from 0.01 to 10 g per kg of seed are generally sufficient. 
     The composition of the invention can be employed in any conventional form, for example in the form of a twin pack, an instant granulate, a flowable formulation, an emulsion concentrate or a wettable powder in combination with industrially acceptable adjuvants, including surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate. Such compositions may be produced in conventional manner, e.g. by mixing the active ingredients with appropriate adjuvants (diluents or solvents and optionally other formulating ingredients such as surfactants). Also conventional slow release formulations may be employed where long lasting efficacy is intended. 
     Particularly formulations to be applied in spraying forms such as water dispersible concentrates or wettable powders may contain surfactants such as wetting and dispersing agents, e.g. the condensation product of formaldehyde with naphthalene sulphonate, an alkylarylsulphonate, a lignin sulphonate, a fatty alkyl sulphate, and ethoxylated alkylphenol and an ethoxylated fatty alcohol. 
     A seed dressing formulation is applied in a manner known per se to the seeds employing the combination of the invention and a diluent in suitable seed dressing formulation form, e.g. as an aqueous suspension or in a dry powder form having good adherence to the seeds. Such seed dressing formulations are known in the art. Seed dressing formulations may contain the single active ingredients or the combination of active ingredients in encapsulated form, e.g. as slow release capsules or microcapsules. 
     In general, the formulations include from 0.01 to 90% by weight of active agent, from 0 to 20% industrially acceptable surfactant and 10 to 99.99% solid or liquid adjuvant(s), the active agent consisting of at least the compound of formula I, and optionally other active agents, particularly microbides or conservatives or the like. Concentrated forms of compositions generally contain in between about 2 and 80%, generally from between about 5 and 70% by weight of active agent. Application forms of formulation may for example contain-from 0.01 to 20% by weight, generally from 0.01 to 5% by weight of active agent. Whereas commercial products will generally be formulated as concentrates, the end user will normally employ dilute formulations. 
     Additionally, the color of the present compounds may be removed by a type of “bleaching”. Furthermore, it has been found possible to bleach the colored substances leached from the present compound in dyed textiles and building materials or from textiles and building materials soiled with a colorant in a solution of wash liquor thereby preventing the colored substance in question from being deposited on other textiles and building materials in the wash liquor, when enzymes utilizing hydrogen peroxide or molecular oxygen for the oxidation of organic or inorganic substances, including colored substances, are added to the wash liquor. Such enzymes are usually termed peroxidases and oxidases, respectively. It is well recognized in the art (cf. for instance B. C. Saunders et al., Peroxidase, London, 1964, p. 10 ff.) that peroxidases act on various amino and phenolic compounds resulting in the production of a color. In view of this, it must be considered surprising that peroxidases (and certain oxidases) may also exert an effect on colored substances in solution such that dye transfer is inhibited. While the mechanism governing the ability of these enzymes to effect dye transfer inhibition has not yet been elucidated, it is currently believed that the enzymes act by reducing hydrogen peroxide or molecular oxygen and oxidizing the colored substance (donor substrate) dissolved or dispersed in the wash liquor, thereby either generating a colorless substance or providing a substance which is not adsorbed to the fabric or building material. 
     Additionally, a liquid composition of matter according to the present invention may be formed and may be mixed with and/or diluted by an excipient. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it may be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material that acts as a vehicle, carrier, or medium for the composition of matter. Various suitable excipients will be understood by those skilled in the art and may be found in the  National Formulary,  19: 2404-2406 (2000), the disclosure of pages 2404 to 2406 being incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. Preferable excipients include butanedioal and EDTA. Examples of suitable excipients include, but are not limited to, starches, gum arabic, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, methacrylates, shellac, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, water, syrup, and methylcellulose. An aqueous medium may include an active ingredient or ingredients, a quantity of one or more surfactants sufficient to dissolve or suspend said active ingredients uniformly throughout the medium and other manufacturing additives as known to the art. The latter include granulating-binding agents such as gelatin; natural gums, such as acacia, tragacanth; starches, sodium alginate, sugars, polyvinylpyrrolidone; cellulose derivatives such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, polyvinyloxoazolidones; pharmaceutical fillers such as lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, dextrose, mannitol, sucrose; tabletting lubricants if needed such as calcium and magnesium stearate, stearic acid, talc, sterotex (alkaline stearate). The term “aqueous medium” for one ingredient of one of the embodiments of the invention is used within the custom of the art. Primarily, it connotes a water medium, with added water-miscible solvents such as isopropanol or ethanol when needed, to support the active ingredient. 
     The present invention is explained in greater detail in the Examples that follow. These examples are intended as illustrative of the invention and are not to be taken are limiting thereof. 
     EXAMPLE 1 
     Synthesis of 1-Ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium Chloride (6) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Step a: Reaction of 2,6-Lutidine (1) and Iodoethane (2) to Form 2,6-Lutidine Ethiodide (3). A total of 69.7 grams (0.65 mole) of 2,6-lutidine (1) was combined with 202.8 grams of ethyl iodide (2) and the mixture was heated at 100° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was then cooled and the precipitated 2,6-lutidine ethiodide (3) was collected by filtration. The filtrate was reheated to 100° C. overnight, then cooled and filtered to recover a second crop of solid 2,6-lutidine ethiodide (3). These two crops were combined, dissolved in hot absolute ethanol and recrystallized. This resultant solid was dissolved in hot ethanol and recrystallized a second time. The purified 2,6-lutidine ethiodide (3) was air dried to constant weight to yield 107.5 grams of desired product. The  1 H-NMR was consistent with the desired material and the uncorrected melting point was determined to be 205-206° C. 
     Step b: Conversion of 2, 6-Lutidine Ethiodide (3) to 2,6-Lutidine Ethochloride (4). The 107.5 grams of 2,6-lutidine ethiodide was dissolved in 2.0 liters of methanol and the solution was chilled in an ice-water bath. A total of 220 grams of anhydrous hydrogen chloride gas was slowly added to the solution via a gas bubbler. An ice-water bath was used to keep the reaction temperature below 30° C. during the hydrogen chloride addition. After all the hydrogen chloride had been added, the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was concentrated to near dryness and then re-dissolved in 1.0 liter of methanol. A total of 103 grams of anhydrous hydrogen chloride gas was then bubbled into the mixture. After stirring for 10 minutes, the reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness under vacuum to yield 94.3 grams of the desired 2,6-lutidine ethochloride (4). 
     Step c: Reaction of 2,6-Lutidine Ethochloride (4) and 4-Pyrrolidinobenzaldehyde (5) to Produce 1-Ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium Chloride (6). 
     A mixture of 30.6 grams (0.22 mole) of 2,6-lutidine ethochloride (4), 75 grams (0.54 mole) of 4-pyrrolidinobenzaldehyde (5), 12 mL piperidine and ca. 2 liters of methanol was heated at reflux overnight. The  1 H NMR indicated that no reaction had occurred. No reaction occurred after heating the reaction mixture for an additional 96 hours at reflux. An additional 12 mL of piperidine was added and heating at reflux continued. After a total of 120 hours of heating at reflux, some solids began precipitating but  1 H NMR indicated that the desired reaction was still incomplete. Another 12 mL of piperidine catalyst was added and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux for an additional 24 hours. The  1 NMR spectrum now indicated the desired reaction was carried to completion. The reaction mixture was slowly cooled to room temperature and the precipitated solid containing 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride (6) was collected by filtration. The solid was triturated and washed with three 100 ml portions of ethyl ether to remove impurities and residual methanol solvent. The solid was air dried and dried under vacuum to constant weight to yield 32.6 grams of red crystalline 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride (6)—high performance liquid chromatography area per cent (HPLC Area %)=98.1%,  1 H NMR (DMSO, d 6 ); ppm 8.16-8.14 (t,1H); 8.08-8.07 (d,2H); 7.71-7.68 (d,1H); 7.69-7.67 (d,2H,J=8.8Hz); 7.23-7.20 (d,1H); 6.61-6.59 (d,2H,J=8.8Hz); 4.75-4.74 (m,2H); 3.31 (m,2H); 1.98-1.96 (m,2H); 1.48-1.45 (t,3H). 
     The reaction filtrate was concentrated to approximately one-half the original volume, 10 mL of piperidine was added and the dark reaction filtrate was heated at reflux for 24 hours.  1 H NMR spectral analysis indicated that more 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride (6) had formed, possibly by olefinic isomer equilibration. The heat was removed and the reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature for 48 hours, during which time a precipitate formed. The solid was collected by filtration and was triturated and washed with three 100 ml portions of ethyl ether to remove impurities and residual methanol solvent. The red crystalline solid was air dried and dried under vacuum to constant weight to yield 19.2 grams of additional 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride (6)—HPLC Area %=97.4%,  1 H NMR was consistent with the first crop of product (6). 
     EXAMPLE 2 
     Synthesis of 1-Ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium Chloride 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     A mixture of 9.0 grams (0.07 mole) of 2,6-lutidine ethochloride, 23.6 grams (0.16 mole) of 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde, 14 mL piperidine and 350 mL methanol was heated at reflux for 77 hours. After 77 hr at reflux, high performance liquid chromatography—mass spectral analysis (LC/MS analysis) indicated that the desired product was present in the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was slowly cooled to effect precipitation and the precipitated solids were collected by filtration. The solids were triturated and washed with three 100 ml portions of ethyl ether to remove impurities and residual methanol solvent. The solid was air dried and dried under vacuum to constant weight to yield 2.8 grams of red crystalline 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride—high performance liquid chromatography area percent (HPLC Area %)=99.5%,  1 H NMR (DMSO, d 6 ) consistent with the desired product. 
     The reaction filtrate was concentrated to approximately one-half the original volume. A total of 10 mL of piperidine catalyst was added and the dark solution was heated at reflux for an additional 24 hours. At this point high performance liquid chromatography area per cent analysis (HPLC A % analysis) indicated that more product had formed and the 2,6-lutidine ethochloride starting material was almost gone. The heat was removed and the reaction was concentrated under vacuum to yield a heavy slurry. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration, washed with three 100 ml portions of ethyl ether and the resulting solid was air dried and vacuum dried overnight to yield 13.6 grams of red crystalline 1-ethyl-(E,E)-2,6-bis[2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethenyl]pyridinium chloride—HPLC Area %=99%,  1 H NMR was consistent with the desired product.

     EXAMPLE 6 
     Antifungal activity 
     Fungal strains (obtained from ATCC) were grown in Mueller-Hinton broth for 18 hours at 35° C. Plates were then seeded with the broth culture and allowed to air-dry at room temperature (22° C.) for about 10-15 minutes. Forty microliters of formula I (in 1% dimethylsulfoxide) and serial half-step dilutions in water were then pipetted onto the seeded Mueller-Hinton agar plates. The plates were then incubated for 24 hours at 35° C. and zones of inhibition were then recorded. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was the lowest concentration of formula I which produced a zone of inhibition against the organism. The following table lists the antifungal activity of formula I against various fungal strains.

     EXAMPLE 7 
     Stilbazium iodide was tested against a panel of plant relevant mold stains. A stock solution of the compound was prepared in DMSO at a concentration of 10,000 ppm a.i. Further dilutions were prepared with water. The test was conducted at the following concentrations: 125, 31, 8, 21, 0.5 and 0.125 ppm a.i. Spore suspensions of the fungi were prepared. The test was conducted in microtiter plates and for each fungus and each concentration, 3 wells were prepared. Incubation of the inoculated plates was carried out at 18° C. for 7 days. After this time, the optical density of the mycelium developed in each well was measured at 405 nm. 
     The data produced, shown in Table 3, allowed an assessment of the IC 90 value (the concentration at which the fungal growth was reduced by at least 90% compared to the control).
