and to the agriculturally useful salts thereof.
Moreover, the invention relates to processes and to intermediates for the preparation of compounds of the formula I, to compositions comprising them, and to the use of the compounds of the formula I and of compositions comprising them for controlling harmful plants.
2-Benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-diones have been disclosed in the literature, for example in EP-A 278 742, EP-A 298 680, EP-A 320 864 and WO 96/14285.
However, the herbicidal properties of the prior-art compounds and their tolerance by crop plants are only moderately satisfactory.
It is an object of the present invention to provide novel, in particular herbicidally active, compounds which have improved properties.
We have found that this object is achieved by the 2-benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-diones of the formula I and their herbicidal activity.
Furthermore, there have been found herbicidal compositions which comprise the compounds I and which have a very good herbicidal activity. Moreover, there have been found processes for the preparation of these compositions and methods of controlling undesired vegetation using the compounds I.
Depending on the substitution pattern, the compounds of the formula I can also contain one or more chiral centers, in which case they are present as enantiomer or diastereomer mixtures. The invention relates to the pure enantiomers or diastereomers and also to mixtures of these.
The compounds of the formula I can also exist in the form of their agriculturally useful salts, the type of salt generally being unimportant. In general, suitable salts are salts of those cations or the acid addition salts of those acids whose cations, or anions, respectively, do not adversely affect the herbicidal activity 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, it being possible in this case, if desired, for one to four hydrogen atoms to be replaced by C

-alkyl or hydroxy-C

-alkyl and/or a phenyl or benzyl, preferably diisopropylammonium, tetramethylammonium, tetrabutylammonium, trimethylbenzylammonium, in addition phosphonium ions, sulfonium ions, preferably tri(C

-C
4
-alkyl)sulfonium, and sulfoxonium ions, preferably tri(C

-C

-alkyl)sulfoxonium.
Anions of useful acid addition salts are mainly chloride, bromide, fluoride, hydrogen sulfate, sulfate, dihydrogen phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, nitrate, hydrogen carbonate, carbonate, hexafluorosilicate, hexafluorophosphate, benzoate, and the anions of C

-C
4
-alkanoic acids, preferably formate, acetate, propionate and butyrate.

where II also represents the tautomeric formulae II′, and II″,
which is linked in the 2-position and where
