Abstract
The present invention relates to herbicidal heteroarylmethoxy/heterocyclylmethoxy substituted phenyl diones and heteroarylmethoxy/heterocyclylmethoxysubstituted phenyl-dioxo-thiazinone derivatives of formula (I), as well as to processes and intermediates used for the preparation of such derivatives. The invention further extends to herbicidal compositions comprising such derivatives, as well as to the use of such compounds and compositions in controlling undesirable plant growth: in particular the use in controlling weeds, such as broad-leaved dicotyledonous weeds, in crops of useful plants.
