ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to haloalkyl-substituted 3-(4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)benzoylcyclohexenones and to processes for their preparation, to compositions comprising them and to the use of these derivatives or compositions for controlling harmful plants.
WO 96/26200 discloses herbicidal 2-benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-diones.
However, the herbicidal properties of the prior-art compounds and their compatibility with crop plants are not entirely satisfactory.
It is an object of the present invention to provide novel, in particular herbicidally active, compounds having improved properties.
We have found that this object is achieved by the haloalkyl-substituted 3-(4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)benzoylcyclohexenones of the formula I

and their agriculturally useful salts.
Furthermore, we have found herbicidal compositions which comprise the compounds I and have very good herbicidal activity. Moreover, we have found processes for preparing these compositions and methods for controlling undesirable vegetation using the compounds I.
Depending on the substitution pattern, the compounds of the formula I may contain one or more centers of chirality, in which case they are present as enantiomers or diastereomer mixtures. The invention provides both the pure enantiomers or diastereomers and their mixtures. The compounds of the formula I where R

=OH or SH can also be present as tautomers of the structure shown, or as tautomer mixtures.
The compounds of the formula I may also be present in the form of their agriculturally useful salts, the nature of the salt generally being immaterial. In general, the salts of those cations and the acid addition salts of those acids are suitable whose cations and anions, respectively, do not adversely affect the herbicidal action of compounds I.
Suitable cations are, in particular, ions of the alkali metals, preferably lithium, sodium and potassium, the alkaline earth metals, preferably calcium and magnesium, and the transition metals, preferably manganese, copper, zinc and iron, and also ammonium where, if desired, one to four hydrogens may be replaced by C
