Abstract

The present invention relates to novel trifluoromethyloxadiazoles of the formula I, or the N-oxides, or the agriculturally useful salts thereof; and to their use for controlling phytopathogenic fungi; and to a method for combating phytopathogenic harmful fungi, which process comprises treating the fungi, the plants, the soil or seeds to be protected against fungal attack, with an effective amount of at least one compound of the formula I, or an N-oxide, or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof; and to agrochemical compositions comprising at least one compound of the formula I; and to agrochemical compositions further comprising seeds.

wherein
R N is hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 -alkyl or halogen;
and wherein said S ring member atom is unsubstituted or substituted with 1 or 2 oxo radicals; and wherein one or two CH 2 groups of the saturated carbocycle or of the saturated heterocycle may be replaced by one or two groups independently selected from —C(═O)— and —C(═S)—; and wherein the carbon ring member atoms of the saturated carbocycle or of the saturated heterocycle are unsubstituted or substituted with a total number of 1, 2, 3, 4 or up to the maximum possible number of identical or different radicals selected from the group consisting of halogen, cyano, C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, C 1 -C 6 -alkoxy and C 3 -C 8 -cycloalkyl;
