Abstract: Novel herbicidal compounds, compositions containing them, and methods for their use in controlling weeds are disclosed. The novel herbicidal compounds are represented by formula I: where J is a 1-substituted-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-pyrimidinedione-3-yl, a 1-substituted-6-trifluoromethyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dion-1-yl, a 3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimid-1-yl, a 4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-on-1-yl, a 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1H,3H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,5-a]pyridazineimin-1-yl, or a 1,6,8-triazabicyclo[4.3.0]-nonane-7,9-dion-8-yl ring attached at the 7 position of a benzofuran, benzoxazole, indole, 2,3-dihydrobenzimidazole or benzimidazole, and X is selected from hydrogen, halogen, cyano, nitro, and amino. Preferred R groups are optionally substituted alkyl groups.
