The invention relates to N-phenylphosphoric acid triamides of general formula (I) to a method for the production thereof and to their use as agents for regulating or inhibiting enzymatic urea hydrolysis. In formula (I), X represents oxygen or sulfur； R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, independent of one another, represent hydrogen C1-C8 alkyl/heteroalkyl, C2-C8 alkenyl/heteroalkenyl, C2-C8&mdash；alkynyl/heteroalkynyl, C3-C8 cycloalkyl/heterocycloalkyl, C3-C8 cycloalkenyl/heterocycloalkenyl, C6-C10 aryl/C5-C10 heteroaryl, aralkyl, heteroarylalkyl, alkaryl, alkheteroaryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, hetaryloxy, alkylthio, arylthio, hetarylthio, acyl, aroyl, hetaroyl, acyloxy, aroyloxy, hetaroyloxy, alkoxycarbonyl, aryloxycarbonyl, hetaryloxycarbonyl, alkylsulfonyl, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, cyano, nitro, sulfo, carbonyl, carboxy, carbamoyl, sulfamoyl, with the provision that: at least one radical R is not hydrogen； in the event R1, R2, R4, R5 represent H, R3 is not nitro or cyano, and； in the event R1 represents Cl or R1 and R3 represent Cl, at least one of the remaining radicals is not hydrogen.
