following members: -O-, -S-, -N=, -NH- or

and the agriculturally useful salts and enol ethers of the
compound I.
Furthermore, the invention relates to
- the use of the compounds I as herbicides,
- herbicidal compositions which comprise the compounds I as
active ingredients,
- processes for preparing the compounds I and herbicidal
compositions using the compounds I, and also
- methods for controlling undesirable vegetation using the
compounds I.
Substituted 1-phenyluracil derivatives are already provided by WO
97/05117, and they have been attributed herbicidal activity in
that publication.
However, the herbicidal properties of the known herbicidally
active 1-phenyluracils with regard to the harmful plants are not
always entirely satisfactory.
It is an object of the present invention to provide novel
herbicidally active 1-aryl uracils which allow better selective
control of undesirable plants.
we have found that this object is achieved by the
1-aryl-4-thiouracils of the formula I defined at the outset.
Furthermore, we have found herbicidal compositions which comprise


0050/49498
CA 02349386 2001-04-30
9
the compounds I and have very good herbicidal activity.
Furthermore, 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 exist in the form of enantiomer or diastereomer mixtures.
For compounds I having at least one olefinic radical, E/2 isomers
may also be possible. The invention relates both to the pure
enantiomers or diastereomers and to mixtures thereof.
Agriculturally useful salts are especially the salts of those
cations or the acid addition salts of those acids whose cations
or anions have no negative effect on the herbicidal activity of
the compounds I. Thus, particularly suitable cations are the ions
of the alkali metals, preferably sodium and potassium, the
alkaline earth metals, preferably calcium, magnesium and barium,
and the transition metals, preferably manganese, copper, zinc and
iron, and also the ammonium ion which may, if desired, carry from
one to four C1-C4-alkyl substituents and/or a phenyl or benzyl
substituent, preferably diisopropylammonium, tetramethylammonium,
tetrabutylammonium, trimethylbenzylammonium, furthermore
phosphonium ions, sulfonium ions, preferably
tri(C1-C4-alkyl)sulfonium, and sulfoxonium ions, preferably
tri(C1-CQ-alkyl)sulfoxonium.
Anions of useful acid addition salts are primarily chloride,
bromide, fluoride, hydrogen sulfate, sulfate, dihydrogen
phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, phosphate, nitrate, hydrogen
carbonate, carbonate, hexafluorosilicate, hexafluorophosphate,
benzoate, and also the anions of C1-C4-alkanoic acids, preferably
formate, acetate, propionate and butyrate.
The organic moieties mentioned in the definition of R1 to R3, R5
to RZ9 and on phenyl, cycloalkyl and heterocyclyl rings are
collective terms for individual listings of the individual group
members. All carbon chains, i.e. all (unsubstituted or
substituted) alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl moieties, can be
straight-chain or branched.
Halogenated substituents preferably carry one to five identical
or different halogen atoms.
The term halogen represents in each case fluorine, bromine,
chlorine or iodine, in particular fluorine or chlorine.

The 1-aryl-4-thiouracils of the formula I can be obtained in
various ways, in particular by one of the following processes:
A~ Sulfurization of a 1-aryluracil of the formula II:
R1 X R6 R1 X R6
N~~ Y sulfurization N~~ Y 5
p- N ~ ~ R5 S- N ~ ~ R
R2 R3 R4 R2 R3 R4
II I
The sulfurization is generally carried out in an inert
solvent or diluent, for example in an aromatic hydrocarbon,
such as toluene and the xylenes, in an ether, such as diethyl
ether, 1,2-dimethoxyethane and tetrahydrofuran, or in an
organic amine, such as pyridine.
Particularly suitable sulfurizing agents are phosphorus(V)
sulfide and
2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetan-
2,4-dithione ("Lawesson's Reagent").
1- to 5-times the molar amount, based on the starting
material to be sulfurized, is usually sufficient for
substantially complete conversion.
The reaction temperature is normally from 20 to 200~C,
preferably from 40~C to the boiling point of the reaction
mixture.
The precursors II are known from WO 97/05117 or they can be
prepared in a manner similar to one of the processes
described therein.

1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) or
1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU).
35 The processes (B~) and (C~) for preparing the compounds of the
formula (I) are preferably carried out in the presence of a
diluent. Suitable diluents are, in general, the customary organic
solvents. These preferably include aliphatic, alicyclic and
aromatic, unhalogenated or halogenated hydrocarbons, for example
40 pentane, hexane, heptane, petroleum ether, ligroin, benzine,
benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene,
cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, dichloromethane (methylene
chloride), trichloromethane (chloroform) or carbon tetrachloride,
dialkyl ethers, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, methyl

ether, ethylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl
ether and diethylene glycol diethyl ether; dialkyl ketones, such
as acetone, butanone (methyl ethyl ketone), methyl isopropyl
ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone; nitriles, such as
acetonitrile, propionitrile, butyronitrile and benzonitrile;
amides, such as N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethyl
acetamide, N-methylformanilide, N-methylpyrrolidone and

n-propanol, isopropanol, n-, iso-, sec- and tert-butanol; glycol
ethers, such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol
monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ethyl and
diethylene glycol monoethyl ether; mixtures thereof with water or
pure water.
When carrying out the processes (B~) and (C~), the reaction
temperatures can be varied within a relatively wide range. In
general, the reaction is carried out at from 0 to 200~C,
preferably from 10 to 150~C, in particular from 20~C to the
boiling point of the reaction mixture in question.
For carrying out the processes (A~), (B~) and (C~), the starting
materials are generally employed in approximately equimolar
amounts. However, it is also possible to employ a relatively
large excess of in each case one of the components, up to about
two times the molar amount of the other component. In the process
(A~, for example, it is expedient to employ an excess of
sulfurizing agent.
The processes (A~), (B~) and (C~) are advantageously carried out
at atmospheric pressure or under the autogeneous pressure of the
reaction mixture in question. However, it is also possible to
carry out the processes under elevated or reduced pressure - in
general at from 0.1 to 10 bar.
Work-up of the reaction mixtures in question is generally carried
out by methods known per se, for example by diluting the reaction
solution with water and subsequently isolating the product by
filtration, crystallization or solvent extraction, or
by removing the solvent, partitioning the residue in a mixture of
water and a suitable organic solvent and work-up of the organic
phase to afford the product.

In general, the 1-aryl-4-thiouracils I can be prepared by one of
the synthesis processes mentioned above. For economical or
technical reasons, however, it may be more advantageous to
prepare some of the compounds I from similar 1-aryl-4-thiouracils
- which, however, differ in particular in the meaning of the
radicals R5 and/or R6 -, in a manner known per se, for example by
ester hydrolysis, esterification, amidation, acetalization,
acetal hydrolysis, condensation reaction, Wittig reaction,
Peterson olefiniation, etherification, alkylation, oxidation or
reduction.
In the preparation, the 1-aryl-4-thiouracils I may be obtained as
isomer mixtures. However, these mixtures can, if desired, be
separated into pure isomers using the customary methods for this
purpose, such as crystallization or chromatography, including
chromatography over an optically active adsorbate. Pure optically
active isomers can be prepared advantageously from appropriate
optically active starting materials.
Agriculturally useful salts of the compounds I can be formed by
reaction with a base of the appropriate cation, preferably an
alkali metal hydroxide or hydride, or by reaction with an acid of
the appropriate anion, preferably hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic
acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid.
Salts of I where the metal ion is not an alkali metal ion can be
prepared by cation exchange of the corresponding alkali metal
salt in a conventional manner, similarly ammonium, phosphonium,
sulfonium and sulfoxonium salts by means of ammonia, phosphonium,
sulfonium or sulfoxonium hydroxides.
The compounds I and their agriculturally useful salts are
suitable, both in the form of isomer mixtures and in the form of
the pure isomers, as herbicides. The herbicidal compositions
comprising I control vegetation on non-crop areas very
efficiently, especially at high rates of application. They act
against broad-leaved weeds and grass weeds in crops such as
wheat, rice, maize, Soya and cotton without causing any
significant damage to the crop plants. This effect is mainly
observed at low rates of application.
Depending on the application method in question, the compounds I,
or herbicidal compositions comprising them, can additionally be
employed in a further number of crop plants for eliminating
undesirable plants. Examples of suitable crops are the following:

In addition, the compounds I may also be used in crops which
tolerate the action of herbicides owing to breeding, including
genetic engineering methods.
The compounds I, or the compositions comprising them, can be used
for example in the form of ready-to-spray aqueous solutions,
powders, suspensions, also highly-concentrated aqueous, oily or
other suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions,
pastes, dusts, materials for broadcasting, or granules, by means
of spraying, atomizing, dusting, spreading or watering. The use
forms depend on the intended purpose; in any case, they should
guarantee the finest possible distribution of the active
compounds according to the invention.
Suitable for use as inert auxiliaries are essentially the
following: mineral oil fractions of medium to high boiling point,
such as kerosene and diesel oil, furthermore coal-tar oils and
oils of vegetable or animal origin, aliphatic, cyclic and
aromatic hydrocarbons, for example paraffins,
tetrahydronaphthalene, alkylated naphthalenes and their
derivatives, alkylated benzenes and their derivatives, alcohols
such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol and cyclohexanol,
ketones such as cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, for
example amines such as N-methylpyrrolidone, and water.

CA 02349386 2001-04-30
64
Aqueous use forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates,
suspensions, pastes, wettable powders or water-dispersible
granules by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil
dispersions, the 1-aryl-4-thiouracils I, either as such or
dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by
means of a wetting agent, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier.
Alternatively, it is possible to prepare concentrates comprising
active compound, wetting agent, tackifier, dispersant or
emulsifier and, if desired, solvent or oil, which are suitable
for dilution with water.
Suitable surfactants are the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth
metal salts and ammonium salts of aromatic sulfonic acids, e.g.
ligno-, phenol-, naphthalene- and dibutylnaphthalenesulfonic
acid, and of fatty acids, alkyl- and alkylarylsulfonates, alkyl
sulfates, lauryl ether sulfates and fatty alcohol sulfates, and
salts of sulfated hexa-, hepta- and octadecanols, and also of
fatty alcohol glycol ethers, condensates of sulfonated
naphthalene and its derivatives with formaldehyde, condensates of
naphthalene or of the naphthalenesulfonic acids with phenol and
formaldehyde, polyoxyethylene octylphenol ether, ethoxylated
isooctyl-, octyl- or nonylphenol, alkylphenyl or tributylphenyl
polyglycol ether, alkylaryl polyether alcohols, isotridecyl
alcohol, fatty alcohol/ethylene oxide condensates, ethoxylated
castor oil, polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers or polyoxypropylene
alkyl ethers, lauryl alcohol polyglycol ether acetate, sorbitol
esters, lignin-sulfite waste liquors or methylcellulose.
Powders, materials for broadcasting and dusts can be prepared by
mixing or grinding the active compounds together with a solid
carrier.
Granules, e.g. coated granules, impregnated granules and
homogeneous granules, can be prepared by binding the active
compounds to solid carriers. Solid carriers are mineral earths
such as silicas, silica gels, silicates, talc, kaolin, limestone,
lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolomite, diatomaceous earth,
calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate and magnesium oxide, ground
synthetic materials, fertilizers such as ammonium sulfate,
ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate and ureas, and products of
vegetable origin, such as cereal meal, tree bark meal, wood meal
and nutshell meal, cellulose powders, or other solid carriers.
The concentrations of the active compounds I in the ready-to-use
preparations can be varied within wide ranges. In general, the
formulations comprise approximately from 0.001 to 98~ by weight,
preferably 0.01 to 95~ by weight of at least one active compound.


0050/49498
CA 02349386 2001-04-30
The active compounds are employed in a purity of from 90% to
100%, preferably 95% to 100% (according to NMR spectrum).
The following formulation examples illustrate the preparation of
5 such formulations:
I. 20 parts by weight of the compound No. Ib.3 are dissolved
in a mixture composed of 80 parts by weight of alkylated
benzene, 10 parts by weight of the adduct of from 8 to 10
10 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol of oleic acid
N-monoethanolamide, 5 parts by weight of calcium salt of
dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid and 5 parts by weight of the
adduct of 40 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol of castor oil.
Pouring the solution into 100,000 parts by weight of water
15 and finely distributing it therein gives an aqueous
dispersion which comprises 0.02% by weight of the active
compound.

20 in a mixture composed of 40 parts by weight of
cyclohexanone, 30 parts by weight of isobutanol, 20 parts
by weight of the adduct of 7 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol
of isooctylphenol and 10 parts by weight of the adduct of
40 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol of castor oil. Pouring
25 the solution into 100,000 parts by weight of water and
finely distributing it therein gives an aqueous dispersion
which comprises 0.02% by weight of the active compound.
III. 20 parts by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 are
30 dissolved in a mixture composed of 25 parts by weight of
cyclohexanone, 65 parts by weight of a mineral oil fraction
of boiling point 210 to 280°C and 10 parts by weight of the
adduct of 40 mol of ethylene oxide to 1 mol of castor oil.
Pouring the solution into 100,000 parts by weight of water
35 and finely distributing it therein gives an aqueous
dispersion which comprises 0.02% by weight of the active
compound.
Iv. 20 parts by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 are
40 mixed thoroughly with 3 parts by weight of the sodium salt
of diisobutylnaphthalene-a-sulfonic acid, 17 parts by
weight of the sodium salt of a lignosulfonic acid from a
sulfite waste liquor and 60 parts by weight of pulverulent
silica gel, and the mixture is ground in a hammer mill.
45 Finely distributing the mixture in 20,000 parts by weight
of water gives a spray mixture which comprises 0.1% by


0050/49498
CA 02349386 2001-04-30
66
weight of the active compound.
V. 3 parts by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 are mixed
with 97 parts by weight of finely divided kaolin. This
gives a dust which comprises 3~ by weight of the active
compound.
VI. 20 parts by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 are
mixed intimately with 2 parts by weight of calcium salt of
dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, 8 parts by weight of fatty
alcohol polyglycol ether, 2 parts by weight of the sodium
salt of a phenol/urea/formaldehyde condensate and 68 parts
by weight of a paraffinic mineral oil. This gives a stable
oily dispersion.
VII. 1 part by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 is
dissolved in a mixture composed of 70 parts by weight of
cyclohexanone, 20 parts by weight of ethoxylated
isooctylphenol and 10 parts by weight of ethoxylated castor
oil. This gives a stable emulsion concentrate.
VIII. 1 part by weight of the active compound No. Ib.3 is
dissolved in a mixture composed of 80 parts by weight of
cyclohexanone and 20 parts by weight of Wettol~ EM 31
(= nonionic emulsifier based on ethoxylated castor oil;
BASF AG). This gives a stable emulsion concentrate.
The active compounds I or the herbicidal compositions can be
applied pre- or post-emergence. If the active compounds are less
well tolerated by certain crop plants, application techniques may
be used in which the herbicidal compositions are sprayed, with
the aid of the spraying equipment, in such a way that as far as
possible they do not come into contact with the leaves of the
sensitive crop plants, while the active compounds reach the
leaves of undesirable plants growing underneath, or the bare soil
surface (post-directed, lay-by).
The rates of application of active compound I are from 0.001 to
3.0, preferably 0.01 to 1.0, kg/ha of active substance (a.s.),
depending on the control target, the season, the target plants
and the growth stage.
To widen the spectrum of action and to achieve synergistic
effects, the 1-aryl-4-thiouracils I may be mixed with a large
number of representatives of other herbicidal or
growth-regulating active compound groups and applied
concomitantly. Suitable components for mixtures are, for example,


0050/49498

1,2,4-thiadiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, amides, aminophosphoric
acid and its derivatives, aminotriazoles, anilides,
(het)aryloxyalkanoic acids and their derivatives, benzoic acid
and its derivatives, benzothiadiazinones,
2-(het)aroyl-1,3-cyclohexanediones, hetaryl aryl ketones,
benzylisoxazolidinones, meta-CF3-phenyl derivatives, carbamates,
quinolinic acid and its derivatives, chloroacetanilides,
cyclohexane-1,3-dione derivatives, diazines, dichloropropionic
acid and its derivatives, dihydrobenzofurans,
dihydrofuran-3-ones, dinitroanilines, dinitrophenols, diphenyl
ethers, dipyridyls, halocarboxylic acids and their derivatives,
ureas, 3-phenyluracils, imidazoles, imidazolinones, N-phenyl-
3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimides, oxadiazoles, oxiranes, phenols,
aryloxy- and hetaryloxyphenoxypropionic esters, phenylacetic acid
and its derivatives, 2-phenylpropionic acid and its derivatives,
pyrazoles, phenylpyrazoles, pyridazines, pyridinecarboxylic acid
and its derivatives, pyrimidyl ethers, sulfonamides,
sulfonylureas, triazines, triazinones, triazolinones,
triazolecarboxamides and uracils.
It may furthermore be advantageous to apply the compounds I,
alone or in combination with other herbicides, in the form of a
mixture with other crop protection agents, for example together
with agents for controlling pests or phytopathogenic fungi or
bacteria. Also of interest is the miscibility with mineral salt
solutions, which are employed for treating nutritional and trace
element deficiencies. Non-phytotoxic oils and oil concentrates
may also be added.
Preparation Examples
Example 1 (Compound Ib.3)
5-Fluoro-4-(5-fluoro-3-methyl-2-oxo-4-thioxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-
pyrimidin-1-yl)-2-(1-methylprop-2-ynyloxy)benzonitrile
At approximately 20~C, 1 g of "Lawesson's reagent"
{2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetan-2,4-di-
thione} was added to a solution of 1.7 g of
5-fluoro-4-(5-fluoro-3-methyl-2,4-dioxo-
3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimidin-1-yl)-2-(1-methylprop-2-ynyloxy)-
benzonitrile in 50 ml of toluene. The mixture was subsequently
stirred at reflux temperature for 10 hours. The mixture was then
admixed with another 1 g of "Lawesson's reagent", and then heated
at reflux temperature for a further 10 hours.
For work-up, the cooled reaction mixture was initially
chromatographed over silica gel (mobile phase: toluene). The
resulting oil was stirred with isopropyl ether.


0050/49498
CA 02349386 2001-04-30
68
The resulting solid was washed with petroleum ether and
subsequently dried. Yield: 0.45 g; m.p.: 181-188~C.
The following 1-aryl-4-thiouracils were prepared in a similar
manner:
Compound No. Ia.3 m.p.: 184-185~C;
5-fluoro-4-(3,5-dimethyl-2-oxo-4Tthioxo-
3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimidin-1-yl)-2-(1-methyl-
prop-2-ynyloxy)benzonitrile m.p.: 147-148~C;
5-fluoro-4-(5-bromo-3-methyl-2-oxo-4-thioxo-
3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimidin-1-yl)-2-(1-methyl-
prop-2-ynyloxy)benzonitrile m.p.: 175-180~C.
Use Examples
The herbicidal activity of the 1-aryl-4-thiouracils I was
demonstrated by the following greenhouse experiments:
The culture containers used were plastic flowerpots containing
loamy sand with approximately 3.0% of humus as the substrate. The
seeds of the test plants were sown separately for each species.
For the pre-emergence treatment, the active compounds, which had
been suspended or emulsified in water, were applied directly
after sowing by means of finely distributing nozzles. The
containers were irrigated gently to promote germination and
growth and subsequently covered with transparent plastic hoods
until the plants had rooted. This cover causes uniform
germination of the test plants, unless this was adversely
affected by the active compounds.
For post-emergence treatment, the test plants were first grown to
a plant height of from 3 to 15 cm, depending on the plant habit,
and only then treated with the active compounds which had been
suspended or emulsified in water. For this purpose, the test
plants were either sown directly and grown in the same
containers, or they were first grown separately as seedlings and
transplanted into the test containers a few days prior to the
treatment. The application rate for the post-emergence
application was only 31.3 or 15.6 g of a.s./ha.


0050/49498
CA 02349386 2001-04-30
69
Depending on the species, the plants were kept at 10-25~C or
20-35~C. The test period extended over 2 to 4 weeks. During this
time, the plants were tended, and their response to the
individual treatments was evaluated.
Evaluation was carried out using a scale from 0 to 100. 100 means
no emergence of the plants, or complete destruction of at least
the above-ground parts, and 0 means no damage, or normal course
of growth.
