14. The cyclization reaction can be followed by the color change in the reaction vessels. The anhydrides obtained exhibit in each case a strong fluorescence from yellowish green to reddish yellow. The fluorescence spectra were not registered on these compounds.

17. The compounds were tested in vitro (Agar plates) and in planta (leaf disks assays) against Oomycetes (Plasmopara viticola; Phytophthora infestans), Ascomycetes (Pyrenophora teres, Erysiphe graminis) and Basidiomycetes (Puccinia recondita, Rhizoctonia solani)
18. Biokinetic data were recorded by measuring over a period of time the disappearance of the parent compound in maize cell cultures.
