Abstract

Abstract The novel compounds of the formula I are useful selective herbicides for postemergence application in crops of cereals, maize and rice. In formula I, <IMAGE> (I) A is an unsubstituted or substituted amino group, Q is a C2-C6alkylene bridge, Y is an oxygen or sulfur atom or an unsubstituted or substituted nitrogen atom, and Z is an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, naphthyl or heterocyclic radical, which phenyl radical, containing the bridge member Y, can additionally carry one to four further substituents.
