Claims13
A compound selected from the group consisting of 1-(2,2-dimethylindan-1-yl)-5-imidazolecarboxylic acid methyl ester, a stereoisomeric form thereof, and an acid addition salt thereof with the proviso that the stereoisomeric form is not the S enantiomer.
A method for controlling weeds, which method comprises applying to said weeds or to the locus thereof a herbicidally effective amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 1-(2,2-dimethylindan-1-yl)-5-imidazolecarboxylic acid methyl ester, a stereoisomeric form thereof, and an acid addition salt thereof with the proviso that the stereoisomeric form is not the S enantiomer.
A herbicidal composition, containing inert carriers and, if desired, other adjuvants, and as active ingredient, a herbicidally effective amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 1-(2,2-dimethylindan-1-yl)-5-imidazolecarboxylic acid methyl ester, a stereoisomeric form thereof, and an acid addition salt thereof with the proviso that the stereoisomeric form is not the S enantiomer.
