Definitions

  • This invention relates to certain pyrazoles, their agriculturally suitable salts and compositions, and methods of their use for controlling undesirable vegetation.
  • the control of undesired vegetation is extremely important in achieving high crop efficiency. Achievement of selective control of the growth of weeds especially in such useful crops as rice, soybean, sugar beet, corn (maize), potato, wheat, barley, tomato and plantation crops, among others, is very desirable. Unchecked weed growth in such useful crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer. The control of undesired vegetation in noncrop areas is also important. Many products are commercially available for these purposes, but the need continues for new compounds which are more effective, less costly, less toxic, environmentally safer or have different modes of action.
  • This invention is directed to compounds of Formula I including all geometric and stereoisomers, agriculturally suitable salts thereof, agricultural compositions containing them and their use for controlling undesirable vegetation:
  • R 1 is C r C 3 alkyl
  • R 6 and R 7 are taken together to form -CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 -, -CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 - or

"Alkynyl” includes straight-chain or branched alkynes such as ethynyl, 1-propynyl, 2-propynyl and the different butynyl, pentynyl and hexynyl isomers.
  • Alkynyl can also include moieties comprised of multiple triple bonds such as 2,5-hexadiynyl.
  • Alkoxy includes, for example, methoxy, ethoxy, rc-propyloxy, isopropyloxy and the different butoxy, pentoxy and hexyloxy isomers.
  • Cycloalkyl includes, for example, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, and cyclohexyl.
  • halogen either alone or in compound words such as “haloalkyl” includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine.
