Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of the compound of formula (I), wherein the variables are defined according to the description, for controlling unwanted vegetation. Further the invention relates to novel compounds of the formula (I),compositions comprising them a method for controlling unwanted vegetation which comprises allowing a herbicidal effective amount of at least one azine of the formula (I) to act on plants, their seed and/or their habitat.
Claims21
A method of controlling unwanted vegetation, comprising allowing a herbicidally effective amount of a least one compound of formula (I) or of an agriculturally suitable salt or N-oxide thereof:
- wherein
- A is a fused saturated or unsaturated, 4- to 7-membered carbocycle or a fused saturated or unsaturated, 4- to 7-membered heterocycle having 1, 2 or 3 heteroatoms or heteroatom moieties, selected from O, S, SO, SO2, N or NR7 as ring members,
- R1 is selected from the group consisting of H and C1-C6-alkyl;
- R2 is selected from the group consisting of H and C1-C6-alkyl;
- R3 is selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, OH, CN, amino, NO2, C1-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, C1-C6-alkoxy, C2-C6-alkenyloxy, C2-C6-alkynyloxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkoxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkenyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkynyl, where the aliphatic parts of the aforementioned radicals are unsubstituted, partly or completely halogenated;
- R4 is selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, OH, CN, amino, NO2, C1-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, C1-C6-alkoxy, C2-C6-alkenyloxy, C2-C6-alkynyloxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkoxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkenyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkynyl, where the aliphatic parts of the aforementioned radicals are unsubstituted, partly or completely halogenated;
- R5 is selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, OH, CN, amino, NO2, C1-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, C1-C6-alkoxy, C2-C6-alkenyloxy, C2-C6-alkynyloxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkoxy, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkenyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkynyl, where the aliphatic parts of the aforementioned radicals are unsubstituted, partly or completely halogenated;
- R6 is selected from the group consisting of H, C1-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C1-C6-alkyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkenyl, (C1-C6-alkoxy)-C3-C6-alkynyl, phenyl, phenyl-C1-C6-alkyl, where the aliphatic and phenyl parts of the aforementioned radicals are unsubstituted, partly or completely halogenated;
- R7 is selected from the group consisting of H, C1-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-alkenyl, C3-C6-alkynyl;
- to act on plants, their seed and/or their habitat.
