The compound to be prepared according to Example (II-3) is not yet known from the literature; it is the subject of the present application as a new compound. Application examples: Example A

Pre-emergence test

Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone

Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.

Seeds of the test plants are sown in normal soil. After about 24 hours, the soil is watered or sprayed with the active ingredient preparation. The amount of water per unit area is expediently kept constant. The concentration of active substance in the preparation is irrelevant, the only decisive factor is the amount of active substance applied per unit area. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in%

Damage compared to the development of the untreated control.

It means:

0% = no effect (like untreated control)

100% = total destruction In this test, for example, the compounds according to Preparation Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 and (II-1) and (II-2) show strong activity against weeds such as Alopecurus (70 -95%), Avena (80-100%), Setaria (100%), Abutilon (100%), Amaranthus (95-100%) and Sinapis (100%).

Post emergence test

Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone

Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether To prepare a suitable preparation of active compound, mix 1 part by weight of active compound with the stated amount of solvent, add the stated amount of emulsifier and dilute the concentrate with water to the desired concentration.

Test plants with a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the active substance preparation in such a way that the desired amounts of active substance are applied per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is chosen so that the desired amounts of active compound are applied in about 1000 l / ha.

After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in% damage compared to the development of the untreated control. It means:

0% = no effect (like untreated control)

100% = total annihilation

In this test, for example, the compounds according to Preparation Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 and (II-1) and (II-2) show a strong action against weeds such as abutilone (100%), amaranthus ( 90-100%) and Sinapis (80-100%).
