Abstract
The synthesis of the fungicide [^14^C]triadimefon is described. Bromine transformed pinacolone into α ‐bromopinacolone; this reacted with 4‐chloro‐[U‐^14^C] phenol yielding 1‐(4‐chloro [U‐^14^C]phenoxy)‐3,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butanone; this was transformed by bromine into 1‐(4‐chloro[U‐^14^C]phenoxy)‐1‐bromo‐3,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butanone; this last compound reacted with 1,2,4‐triazole to yield [^14^C]triadimefon, i.e., 1‐(4‐chloro [U‐^14^C] phenoxy)‐3,3‐dimethyl‐1‐(1__H__‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐yl)‐2‐butanone. [^14^C]Triadimefon, having the specific activity 0.88 mCi/mmol, was obtained in 58% overall yield from 4‐chloro[U‐^14^C]‐phenol.

## Abstract 2,2′4′‐Trichloro‐[ring U‐^14^C]acetophenone 3 was the key intermediate of this synthesis patterned after the industrial route. An unexpected poor yield was observed during the preparation of 3 by the Friedel‐Crafts reaction of chloroacetyl chloride with 1,3‐dichloro‐[U‐^14^C]benzene 10,
Starting from different 14C-lat?elled compounds four isotopomers of the title compound epoxiconazole were synthesized. Chemical and radiochemical purities of the products were checked by radio-TLC and radio-HPLC and were found to be > 98 %.
