Abstract
This review aims to give an overview of the significance of sulfur-containing compounds in chemical crop protection. The main sulfur-organic agrochemical compound classes are presented, and sulfur-containing natural products which exhibit pesticidal properties are also described. The special role of sulfur in propesticide action is explained. The certain advantages of replacing an isocyclic or N-heterocyclic ring by a sulfur heterocycle are demonstrated by means of different isosteric relationships. Some special contributions of Syngenta and its legacy companies to crop protection-related sulfur chemistry are shown.
