ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to certain 3-(4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)-substituted benzoylpyrazoles and to processes for their preparation, to compositions comprising them and to the use of these derivatives or of the compositions comprising them for controlling harmful plants.
The literature, for example WO 96/26206, WO 98/31682 and WO 98/31681, discloses pyrazol-4-yl-benzoyl derivatives.
The earlier applications WO 00/34273, WO 00/34272, DE 19936520.2 and DE 19936518.0 describe, inter alia, (4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)-substituted benzoylpyrazoles and their herbicidal properties. They do not describe the compounds of the formula I defined below.
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 3-(4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)-substituted benzoylpyrazoles 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 action. 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 can contain one or more chiral centers, in which case they are present as enantiomer or diastereomer mixtures. The invention provides both the pure enantiomers or diastereomers and their mixtures.
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 or the acid addition salts of those acids are suitable whose cations and anions, respectively, do not adversely affect the herbicidal action of the compounds I.
Suitable cations are, in particular, ions of the alkali metals, preferably lithium, sodium and potassium, of the alkaline earth metals, preferably calcium and magnesium, and of the transition metals, preferably manganese, copper, zinc and iron, and also ammonium, where, if desired, one to four hydrogens may be replaced by C
