An overview of the preparation of various 1,8-naphthyridine derivatives is given by P.A. Lowe in
- 3 - O.Z. 0050/40631 Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry (editors:
A.R. Ratritzky and C.W. Rees), Vol. 2, 1st edition (1984), Chapter 2.11. The synthesis of 1,8-naphthyridine derivatives is also described by P. Caluwe in Tetrahedron 36 (1980), 2359-2407, in particular 2391-2394.

where R~ is a phenyl ring, a pyridyl ring, a benzoxazyl radical, a benzthiazyl radical or a benzopyrazinyl -radical, and these aromatic ring systems may carry up to two of the following radLcals: halogen, nitro, Cl-C4-alkyl, Cl-C4-haloalkyl and/or Cl-C~-haloalkoxy, * is hydrogen, Cl-C4-alkyl or one equivalent of a plant-tolerated cation and Rc is hydrogen or methyl, ~re disclosed in the literature, for example in DE-A-22 23 894, DE-A-24 33 067, DE-A-25 76 251, DE-A-30 04 770, BE-A-868 875 and BE-A-858 618.
They are used for controlling undesirable plants from the Gramineae family. However, the tolerance of these substances by crops varies between commercially acceptable and non-tolerated, depending on the substitu-ents and application rate.
The same situation is encountered with cyclo-hexenone derivatives of the formula v ORi Rf ~ NodRe V

where Rd is C1-C4-alkyl;
R- i3 Cl-C4-alkyl, C3- or C4-alkenyl, C3- or C~-alkynyl, C3-_ 4 _ o.z. 0050/40631 or C4-haloalkylene or thenyl which may be substituted by a halogen atom;
R is Cl-C4-alkyl which may be monosubstituted or disub-stituted by Cl-C4-alkylthio or Cl-C4-alkoxy;
a 5-membered or 6-membered saturated or monounsaturated ring system which, in addition to carbon members, may contain an oxygen or sulfur atom or a sulfGxyl or sulfon-yl group, and this ring may carry up to three of the following radicals: hydroxyl, halogen, Cl-C4-alkyl, Cl-C4-haloalkyl, Cl-C4-alkoxy and/or Cl-C4-alkylthio;

Rh is hydrogen, cyano, halogen, C1-C4-alkoxycarbonyl or a Cl-C~-alkylketoxime group and Rl is hydrogen or one equivalent of an environmentally compatible cation.
They are likewise described in the literature (eg. EP-A 228 598, EP-A 230 235, EP-A 238 021, US-A 4 432 786, DE-A 24 39 104) as herbicide~ and are predominantly used for controlling undesirable grasses in dicotyledon crops and in grasses which do not belong to the Gramineae family. Depending on the structure of the substituents and the application rate, compounds of this group can also be used for selectively controlling undesirable grasses in gramineous crops, such as wheat and rice.
It is an ob~ect of the present invention to pro-vide compounds which at least reduce the disadvantages ~. J ~ i 3 - 5 - O.Z. 0050/40631 encountered in using the abovementioned herbicides of the formulae IV and V to such an extent that the harvest yield of the crops is not significantly reduced, if at all.
5We have found that this object is achieved by the substituted 1,8-naphthyridines I defined at the outset.
We have also found processes for the preparation of these compounds I and for the ~oint use of these compounds with the herbicides IV and V for influencing undesirable plant 10growth. The present invention furthermore relates to agents which contain the compounds I, and it is unimpor-tant whether the herbicidal active ingredient and the antidote compound are formulated and applied together or separately or, in the case of separate application, in 15which order the herbicidal active ingredient and the antidote are applied.
The novel compounds I are obtainable by reacting 2,6-diaminopyridine II with a B-dicarbonyl compound III.
The substitution pattern can be varied within a 20wide range by appropriate choice of the B-dicarbonyl com-pound III; in addition to 1,3-diketones, malonaldehydes or their acetal~ and B-ketoaldehydes or their acetals, it is also possible to use malonic esters, B-keto esters and B-formyl esters or their acetals for the cyclocondensa-25tion to give I.
~he preparation of I is illustrated by the following equations:
a) C=O R5 R 7 0 H 2~NH 2 --2H 2 R 7~NH 2 Ill 11 where, for example, R5 and R7 are each H, alkyl, cyclo-alkyl, phenyl, phenylalkyl, haloalkyl or alkoxyalkyl and R6 is H, alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, phenylalkyl, halogen, - 6 - O.Z. 0050/40631 haloalkyl or alkoxyalkyl b) RS

By reactions to exchange the halogen for N, S or O nucleophile~ and C nucleophiles, such as cyanide, the substitution pattern of I can be varied within a wide range.
Furthermore, the primary amino function of the substituted 1,8-naphthyridines I can be derivatized in a conventional manner, for example alkylated or acylated.
It i9 also possible to convert the primary amino group of I into a hydroxyl group by diazotization in acidic aqueous solution and boiling of the resulting diazonium salt.
The substituted 1,8-naphthyridines I where Rl is OH, which are prepared in this manner, react with halogenating agents, such as phosphorus oxychloride or _ 7 _ o.Z. 0050/40631 -bromide in a manner similar to that described above to give the corresponding 1,8-naphthyridines I where Rl is halogen.
The halogen introduced in this manner in place of the primary amino function of I can undergo the above-mentioned nucleophilic exchange reaction~ so that further variations of the substitution pattern of I are possible.
Usually, the starting materials II and III are used in a stoichiometric ratio. However, an excess of one or other may be quite advantageous in specific cases.
The reaction can be carried out continuously or batchwise under atmospheric, superatmospheric or reduced pressure using the conventional methods. The reaction temperature is in general from 20 to 400C, in particular from 50 to 300C, advantageously in the boiling range of the solvent.
Advantageously used solvents and condensing agents are acids, such as sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid and mixtures thereof, and relatively high-boiling ethers, such as dipheny} ether, dioxane or tetra-hydrofuran. In certain cases, it may also be advan-tageous to heat the two starting compounds I and II in the absence of a solvent.
In addition to the abovementioned solvents, how-~5 ever, other suitable ones are aliphatic and aromatichydrocarbons and chlorohydrocarbons.
In view of the intended use of the compounds I as crop protection agents, suitable substituents are the following radicals~

?, 17 O.z. 0050/40631 The herbicidal active ingredients and antidotes may be applied together or separately to the leaves and shoots of the crop plants and unwanted plants. Preferably, the antidote is applied together with the herbicidal active ingredient. If the components are applied separately, the antidote 5 is applied first to the field and then the herbicidal active ingredient.
The herbicidal active ingredient and antidote may be formulated together or separately as spray agents in the form of suspensions, emulsions or solutions.
10 Treatment of the crop plant seed with the antidote prior to sowing is also feasible. The herbicidal active ingredient is then applied on its own in conventional manner.
For herbicidal (heteroaryloxy)-phenoxyacetic acid derivatives, the amount 15 of antidotally active compound varies, depending on the crop. The ratios may vary over a wide range, and are also dependent on the structure of the ~heteroaryloxy)phenoxyacetic acid derivatives and on the crop involved.
Suitable ratios of herbicidal active ingredient to antidote are from 1:10 to 1:0.01, and preferably from 1:4 to 1:0.1, parts by weight.
For the same cyclohexenone derivative, the amount of antidote varies, depending on the crop. The ratios in which a cyclohexenone derivative and a l,8-naphthyridine derivative I are used may vary over a wide range, and are dependent on the structure of the cyclohexenone derivative, the naph-25 thyridine derivative I and the crop involved. Suitable ratios of herbicid-al active ingredient to safener are from 1:10 to 1:0.01, and preferably from 1:4 to 1:0.25, parts by weight.
The novel herbicidal agents may contain, in addition to the naphthyridine 30 derivative I as safener and the herbicide from the group of the (hetero-aryloxy)phenoxyacetic acids IV or cyclohexenones V, other herbicidal or growth-regulating active ingredients of different chemical structure without the safening effect being impaired.
35 The agents according to the invention, or - when applied separately - the herbicidal active ingredients and the safener, are applied for instance in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions (including high-percentage aqueous, oily or others), dispersions, emulsions, oil dis-persions, pastes, dusts, broadcasting agents or granules by spraying, 40 atomizing, dusting, broadcasting or pouring. The forms of application de-pend entirely on the purpose for which the active ingredients are to be used.
