Abstract: 3-(2-Alkoxycarbonylethyl)-2-benzothiazolinones were prepared by alcoholysis and hydrolysis of 3-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-benzothiazolinones which, in turn, were obtained by addition of 2-hydroxybenzothiazole to acrylonitrile. 3-(2-Ethoxy-, 3-(2-propoxy-, 3-(2-allyloxy-, and 3-(2-butoxycarbonylethyl)-2-benzothiazolinones showed growth-regulating effects towards Triticum aestivum L.
