Novel phenoxyphenyl azolylmethyl ketones and carbinols, a plurality of processes for their preparation, and their use as fungicides and as intermediates for the synthesis of other crop protection agents. The compounds of the general formula IMAGE in which X, Y1, Y2, Y3, A, Az and R1 are as defined in the description, are obtained, for example, when halogenoketones are reacted with azoles and, if appropriate, the resulting azolyl ketones are alkylated and, if appropriate, then reduced with hydrides or reacted with organometal compounds. The active substances are suitable for use as crop protection agents and can be employed, in particular, for controlling those fungi which cause powdery mildew diseases.
