A number of these reactions are advantageously carried out in an organic solvent or diluent inert to the reactanta, for example an alcohol, ester, ether, ketone, diamethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile 1,1-clioxy- -tetrahydrothiophene or an aromatic compound, such as toluene and xylene.

'C,
in practice however between room temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. Depending on the chosen ~ostarting material, the solvent and the temperature, the reaction time is between I hour up to about 1 day.
Where a halogen atom is detached in the reaction, the equimolar amount of an acid-binding agent should be used.
Suitable as such is essentially any inorganic or organic base, for example NaCH, MR., NaHCO 3 K 2 C0 3 or K-tertbutylate, and amines, such af trimethylamine, triethylamine, pyridine, 4 -dime thylarninopyrid iae, and so forth, -7 The novel active substance of the formnula I 1. a tb compound which is soluble in customary organic solvents, such as alcohols, ethers, ketones, dime thylf ormamide,, dtrnethyl sulfoxide, and the like.- The compounds of the formula I are used either in an unmodified form or preferably together with auxiliaries customarily employed in formulation practice, and are thus processed in a knowni manner for example into the form~ of emulsion concentrates, directly sprayable or dilutable C solutions, diluted emulsions, wettable powders, soluble powders, dusts or granulates, and also encapsulations in for example polymeric substances. The application processes, such as spraying, atomising, dusting, scattering co or pouring, and likewise the type of composition, are selected to suit the objectivcs to be achieved and tho given conditions, The formulations, that is to say, the compositions formula I and optionally a solid or liquid additive, are tproduced in a known manner, for example by the intimate mixing and/or grinding of the active substances with extenders, such as with solvents, solid carriers and optionally surface-active compounds (tensides) 1 8 Suitable solvents are: aromatic hydrocarbons, preferably the fractions C 8 to C 1 2 such as xylene mixtures or substituted naphthalenes, phthalic esters, such as dibutylor dioctylphthalate, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, alcohols and glycols, as well as ethers and esters thereof, such as ethanol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monomethyl or -ethyl ethers, ketones such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide or dimethylformamide, as well as optionally epoxidised vegetable oils, such as epoxidised coconut oil or soybean oil; o o or water.
°a The solid carriers used, for example for dusts and o dispersible powders, are as a rule natural mineral fillers, K such as calcite, talcum, kaolin, montmorillonite or attapulgite. In order to improve the physical properties, it is possible to add highly dispersed silicic acid or highly dispersed absorbent polymers. Suitable granulated S4," adsorptive carriers are porous types, for example pumice, SO ground brick, sepiolite or bentonite; and suitable nonsorbent carriers are materials such as calcite or sand.
There can also be used a great number of pre-granulated o materials of inorganic or organic nature, such as in particular dolomite or ground plant residues.
Suitable surface-active compounds are, depending on 1 the nature of the active substance of the formula I to be formulated, nonionic, cationic and/or anionic tensides having good emulsifying, dispersing and wetting properties.
By 'tensides' are also meant mixtures of tensides.
Suitable anionic tensid s are both so-called watersoluble soaps as well as water-soluble, synthetic, surface-active compounds.
p Soaps which are applicable are for example the alkali metal, alkaline-earth metal or optionally substituted ammonium salts of higher fatty acids (C 1 0

2 0 for example the Na or K salts of oleic or stearic acid, or of natural fatty acid mixtures, which can be obtained for example from coconut oil or tallow oil. Also to b( mentioned are tho fatty acid-methyl-taurine salts.
So-called synthetic tensides are however more frequently used, particularly fatty sulfonates, fatty IO sulfates, sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives or alkylarylsulfonates. The fatty sulfonates or sulfates are as a rule in the form of ;ilkali metal, alkaline-earth metal or optionally substituted ammonium salts, and
S
a 0 contain an alkyl group having 8 to 22 C atoms, 'alkyl, o ?including also the alkyl moiety of acyl groups, for example the Na or Ca salt of licninsulfonic acid, of dodecylsulfuric acid ester or of a fatty alcohol sulfate o .mixture produced from natural fatty acid Included among these are also the salts of sulfuric acid esters and sulfonic acids of fatty alcohol ethylene oxide adducts.
The sulfonated benzimidazole derivatives preferably contain 2 sulfonic acid groups and a fatty acid group having 8 22 C atoms. Alkyarylsulfonates are for example the Na, Ca or triethanolamine salts of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, of dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid or of a naphthalenesulfonic acid-formald.ehyde condensation .product.
Also suitable are corresponding phosphates, for example salts of the phosphoric ester of a p-nonylphenol-(4-14)ethylene oxide adduct.
10 Suitable nonionic tensides are in particular polyglycol ether derivatives of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic alcohols, saturated or unsaturated fatty acids and alkylphenols, which can contain 3 to 30 glycol ethar groups and 8 to carbon atoms in the (aliphatic) hydrocarbon radical and 6 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl moiezy of the alkylphenols.
Further suitable nonionic tensides are the watersoluble polyethylene oxide adducts, which contain 20 to 250 ethylene glycol ether groups and 10 to 100 propylene S glycol ether groups, with polypropylene glycol, ethylenet ediaminopolypropylene glycol and alkylpolypropylcne glycol having 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain. The S compo.Lnds mentioned usually contain 1 to 5 ethylene glycol units per propylene glycol unit. Examples of nonionic tensides which may be mentioned are: nonylphenolpolyethoxyethanols, castor oil polyglycol ethers, polypropylene/polyethyleneoxy adducts, tributylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, polyethylene glycol and octylphenoxy- O polyethoxyethanol. Suitable also are fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylenesorbitan, such as polyoxyethylenesorbitan-trioleate.
In the case of the cationic tensides, they are in particular quaternary ammonium salts which contain as N-substituents at least one alkyl group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms and, as further substituents, lower, optionally halogenated alkyl, benzyl or lower hydroxyalkyl groups.
The salts are preferably in the form of halides, methyl sulfates or ethyl sulphates, for example stearyltrimethyl- O3 ammonium chloride or benzyldi(2-chloroethyl)ethylammonium bromide.
The tensides customarily used in formulation practice are described, inter alia, in the following publications: "M Cutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifters Annual", MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewoo=d, New Jersey, 1979 Sisely and Wood, "Encylopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publishing Co., Inc. LNew York, 1964 These preparations contain as a rule 0.1 to 99Z/, particul.arly 0.1 to 95%, of active -,ubstance of the forrula 1, 1 to 99% of a solid or liquid additive, and 0 to 0 1 especially 0.1 to 25%, of a tenside.
Whereas comumercial products are preferably in the form of concentrated1 compositions, the compositions employed by the end-user are as a rule c~luted.
The compositions can also contain further additives, such as stabilisers, antifoaming agents, viscosity regulators, binders and adhesives, and also fertilisers or other active ingredients for obtaining special effects.

The treated plants are kept at a temperature of 24-26 0 C, at 45-60 relative humidity and regularly watered.
The test results are evaluated after ten days.
The condition of the plants is assessed according to the following damage ratings: 9 No damage, plant grows like untreated control plant 1 Total damage, plant dead 2-8 intermediate stage of damage.
The damage for every grass at each application rate is evaluated and the mean values for all the grasses are entered into the enclosed graphic.
44 4 4' 4, .4 44 4) Ao 4 In this graphic the mean value cf the r *tivity of the tested substances on the grasses is entered for each application rate. In order to reach a mark 3, which corresponds to a good herbicidal activity, an amount of 86 g of the racemate is needed. In order to get the same activity, surprisingly only 42 g of the (R)-enantiomere are needed. The activity of the (R)-enantiomer is unexpectedly more than double of that of the racemate on these grasses.
