Method for Controlling PPO Resistant Weeds

16:

• A method for controlling the growth of PPO resistant weeds, which comprises contacting such weeds, parts of it, its propagation material or its habitat with compounds of formula (I)
• wherein
• R1 is H, F or Cl;
• R2 is F, Cl, Br, CN, NO2, C(O)NH2 or C(S)NH2;
• R3 is H or C1-C6-alkyl;
• R4 is H or C1-C6-alkyl;
• R5 is H, OH, C1-C6-alkyl, C2-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, C1-C6-haloalkyl, C2-C6-haloalkenyl, C1-C6-alkoxy-C1-C6-alkyl or C6-C10-aryl-C1-C6-alkoxy;
• R6 is H, C1-C6-alkyl, C1-C6-haloalkyl or C1-C6-alkoxycarbonyl-C1-C6-alkyl;
• R7 is H, C1-C6-alkyl, C1-C6-alkoxy, C1-C6-haloalkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-haloalkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, C1-C6-alkoxycarbonyl-C1-C6-alkyl, C6-C10-aryl-C1-C6-alkyl or C6-C10-aryl-C1-C6-alkoxy;
• W is O, S, NH or N(C1-C6-alkyl);
• X is C1-C6-alkylene or C1-C6-haloalkylene;
• and
• Y is O, S, S(O), S(O)2, NH or N(C1-C6-alkyl);
• wherein the PPO resistant weeds are weeds, that are resistant to PPO-inhibiting herbicides except the compounds of formula (I);
• and
• wherein the application of the compound of formula (I) is during and/or after the emergence of the PPO resistant weeds.
