Abstract: The present invention relates to novel 2,4,6-phenyl-substituted cyclic ketoenols of the formula (I) in which W, X, Y and CKE have the meanings given in the disclosure, to a plurality of processes for their preparation and to their use as pesticides and/or herbicides. The invention further relates to selectively herbicidal compositions containing 2,4,6-phenyl-substituted cyclic ketoenols and a compound which improves crop plant tolerance.

Abstract: A description is given of herbicidal compositions comprising A) tembotrione and B) at least one additional herbicide. These compositions exhibit a superior action in comparison with the herbicides applied separately.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel compounds of the formula (I), in which W, X, Y, Z and CKE are each as defined above, to several methods and intermediates for preparation thereof and to the use thereof as pesticides and/or herbicides. The invention also relates to selective herbicidal compositions which comprise firstly haloalkylmethyleneoxyphenyl-substituted ketoenols and secondly a compound which improves crop plant compatibility. The present invention further relates to the enhancement of the action of crop protection compositions comprising especially haloalkylmethyleneoxyphenyl-substituted ketoenols, by the addition of ammonium or phosphonium salts and optionally penetration enhancers, to the corresponding compositions, to methods for production thereof and to the use thereof in crop protection as insecticides and/or acaricides and/or for preventing undesired plant growth.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to novel cycloalkylphenyl-substituted cyclic ketoenols of the formula (I) in which J, X, Y, m and CKE are as defined above, to processes and intermediates for their preparation and to their use as pesticides and/or herbicides. Moreover, the disclosure relates to selective herbicidal compositions comprising, firstly, the cycloalkylphenyl-substituted cyclic ketoenols and, secondly, a crop plant compatibility-improving compound. The disclosure furthermore relates to increasing the activity of crop protection compositions comprising compounds of the formula (I) by adding ammonium or phosphonium salts and, if appropriate, penetrants.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel 2,4,6-trialkylphenyl-substituted cyclopentane-1,3-diones of the formula (I) in which X, Y, A, B, Q1, Q2 and G have the meanings given above, to a plurality of processes and intermediates for their preparation and to their use as pesticides and/or herbicides, and also to selective herbicidal compositions comprising, firstly, the 2,4,6-trialkylphenyl-substituted cyclopentane-1,3-diones of the formula (I) and, secondly, at least one crop plant compatibility-improving compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new phenyl-substituted [1,2]-oxazine-3,5-dione derivatives and dihydropyrone derivatives of the formula (I) in which A, B, U, V, W, X, Y and Z have the definition indicated above, to a number of processes for preparing them and to their use as microbicides and/or pesticides and/or herbicides.

Abstract: A description is given of substituted 3-heteroaryl(amino- or oxy)pyrrolidin-2-ones of the formula (I), processes for preparing them, and their use as herbicides or as plant growth regulators.

Abstract: A mixture, comprising (A) thidiazuron or thidiazuron and diuron and (B) one or more PPO inhibitors of the formula (I) W—V  (I), where the symbols have the meanings given in the description, is suitable for effecting leaf abscission of plants, in particular cotton plants.

Abstract: 1-Methyl-5-alkylsulfonyl-, 1-methyl-5-alkylsulfinyl- and 1-methyl-5-alkylthio-substituted pyrazolylpyrazoles, processes for their preparation and their use as herbicides 1 -Methyl-5-alkylsulfonyl-, 1-methyl-5-alkylsulfinyl- and 1-methyl-alkylthio-substituted pyrazolylpyrazoles of the formula (I) are described as herbicidally active compounds. In this formula (I), R1 and R4 are various substituents, R2 is halogen or cyano, R3 is cyano, nitro or thiocarbamoyl and n is 0, 1 or 2.
