treatment of 1-(5-bromo-2-chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-4-yl)-1-methylhydrazine withdimethylthiocarbamoylchloride gave 7-chloro-n,n, 1,5-tetramethyl-1h-pyrimido[4,5-e][1,3,4]thiadiazin-3-amine in basic acetonitrile. the latter compounds were reacted withsecondary amines in boiling ethanol to afford the related 7-amino derivatives.

In a four-year experiment, five nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg N ha-1) were tested over irrigated sugar beets grown on clays, underMediterranean conditions, in centralGreece. There, sugar beets are commonly grown under water shortages, high temperatures and high soil Na concentrations. Contrary to previous reports, N rates did not affect significantly population density (as asse...
