and their tautomers or agriculturally useful salts.
Moreover, the invention relates to processes for preparing compounds of the formula I, to compositions comprising them, and to the use of the compounds of the formula I and of the compositions comprising them for controlling harmful plants.
Herbicidally active compounds of the class of the benzoylpyrazoles are disclosed in EP-A 282 944; WO 98/42677; WO 45 98/45273; WO 98/50366; WO 98/52926; WO 98/56766; US 5,807,806.
However, the herbicidal properties of these compounds and their compatability with crop plants are not entirely satisfactory. It is an object of the present invention to provide novel compounds having improved properties which can be used as active compounds in crop protection, in particular as herbicides.
We have found that this object is achieved by the benzoylpyrazoles defined above, which are substituted in the 1 position of the pyrazole derivative by a cyclic ring system.
Furthermore, we have found highly active herbicidal compositions which comprise the compounds I. Moreover, we have found processes for preparing these compositions and methods for controlling or reducing undesirable vegetation using the compounds I.
The present invention also provides stereoisomers of the compounds of the formula I. This includes both pure stereoisomers and mixtures thereof.
The compounds of the formula I contain a carbon-carbon double bond and are therefore present as E isomers or as Z isomers or as E/Z isomer mixtures. Furthermore, the compounds of the formula I can contain further carbon or carbon-nitrogen double bonds. The invention provides both the pure geometric isomers and mixtures thereof.
Likewise, 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 enantiomers or diastereomer mixtures. The invention provides both the pure enantiomers or diastereomers and mixtures thereof.
The compounds of the formula I can also be present in the form of their tautomers or as tautomer mixtures. The tautomeric forms result in particular owing to the hydroxyl substituent at the pyrazole ring. Thus, the compounds can be referred to both as 5-hydroxypyrazoles and as 5-oxopyrazolines.
The compounds of the formula I can also be present in the form of their agriculturally useful salts, the type of 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 hydrogen atoms may be replaced by C
