       [0419] In some cases, the compounds according to the invention do also show a herbidical activity.  
       [0420] Depending on their particular physical and/or chemical properties, the active compounds can be converted to the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions, powders, foams, pastes, granules, aerosols and mircroencapsulations in polymeric substances and in coating compositions for seeds, and ULV cool and warm fogging formulations.  
       [0421] These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is, liquid solvents, liquefied gases under pressure, and/or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surfactants, that is emulsifiers and/or dispersants, and/or foam formers. If the extender used is water, it is also possible to use, for example, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents. Suitable liquid solvents are essentially: aromatics such as xylene, toluene or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics or chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions, alcohols such as butanol or glycol and their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents such as dimethylformanide or dimethyl sulphoxide, or else water. Liquefied gaseous extenders or carriers are to be understood as meaning liquids which are gaseous at standard temperature and under atmospheric pressure, for example aerosol propellants such as halogenated hydrocarbons, or else butane, propane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. Suitable solid carriers are: for example ground natural minerals such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals such as highly disperse silica, alumina and silicates. Suitable solid carriers for granules are: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite, or else synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shells, maize cobs and tobacco stalks. Suitable emulsifiers and/or foam formers are: for example nonionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl sulphates, arylsulphonates, or else protein hydrolysates. Suitable dispersants are: for example lignin-sulphite waste liquors and methylcellulose.  
       [0422] Tackifiers such as carboxymethylcellulose and natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or latices, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, or else natural phospholipids, such as cephalins and lecithins and synthetic phospholipids, can be used in the formulations. Other possible additives are mineral and vegetable oils.  
       [0423] It is possible to use colorants such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussian Blue, and organic dyestuffs such as alizarin dyestuffs, azo dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dyestuffs, and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.  
       [0424] The formulations generally comprise between 0.1 and 95 per cent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.  
       [0425] The active compounds according to the invention can be used as such or in their formulations also mixed with known fungicides, bactericides, acaricides, nematicides or insecticides in order thus, for example, to widen the spectrum of action or to prevent development of resistance. In many cases, synergistic effects are achieved, i.e. the activity of the mixture exceeds the activity of the individual components.

       [0528] It is also possible to admix other known active compounds, such as herbicides, or else fertilizers and growth-promoting-substances.  
       [0529] The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom, such as ready-to-use solutions, suspensions, wettable powders, pastes, soluble powders, dusts and granules. They are used in the customary manner, for example by pouring, spraying, atomizing, spreading, dusting, foaming, brushing on and the like. It is further possible to apply the active compounds by the ultra-low volume method or to inject the active compound formulation, or the active compound itself, into the soil. The seed of the plants can also be treated.  
       [0530] When using the active compounds according to the invention for controlling microorganisms, the application rates can be varied within a relatively wide range, depending on the kind of application. When treating parts of plants, the active compound application rates are generally between 0.1 and 10,000 g/ha, preferably between 10 and 1000 g/ha. When treating seed, the active compound application rates are generally between 0.001 and 50 g per kilogram of seed, preferably between 0.01 and 10 g per kilogram of seed. When treating the soil, the active compound application rates are generally between 0.1 and 10,000 g/ha, preferably between 1 and 5000 g/ha.  
       [0531] The compositions used for the protection of industrial materials generally comprise an amount of from 1 to 95%, preferably from 10 to 75%, of the active compounds.  
       [0532] The use concentrations of the active compounds according to the invention depend on the species and the occurrence of the microorganisms to be controlled and on the composition of the material to be protected. The optimal rate of application can be determined by test series. In general, the use concentrations are in the range from 0.001 to 5% by weight, preferably from 0.05 to 1.0% by weight, based on the material to be protected.  
       [0533] It is possible to increase the activity and the activity spectrum of the active compounds which are to be used according to the invention in the protection of materials, or of the compositions, concentrates or quite generally formulations which can be prepared from these, by adding, if appropriate, other compounds having antimicrobial action, fuigicides, bactericides, herbicides, insecticides or other active compounds for increasing the activity spectrum or for obtaining special effects such as, for example, additional protection against insects. These mixtures may have a wider activity spectrum than the compounds according to the invention.  
       [0534] When used against animal pests, too, the substances which can be used according to the invention, in commercially available formulations and also in the use forms prepared from these formulations, can be present as a mixture with synergists. Synergists are compounds which enhance the effectiveness of the active compounds, without it being necessary for the synergist which is added to be active itself.  
       [0535] The content of active compound in the use forms prepared from the commercially available formulations can vary within wide ranges. The concentration of active compound in the use forms can be from 0.0000001 to 95% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.0001 and 1% by weight,  
       [0536] Application is carried out in a manner which is appropriate for the use forms.  
       [0537] The preparation and the use of the compounds according to the invention are illustrated by the examples which follow.
