Patent number: 6838416Abstract: The present invention provided with novel 5-benzyloxymethyl-1,2-isoxazoline derivatives of the formula (1), their preparation method and their use as herbicides. The 5-benzyloxymethyl-1,2-isoxazoline derivatives according to the present invention have sufficiently high herbicidal activity against the weeds in the paddy field rice even at low dose rates and excellent selectivity to transferred rice in particular. As thus, the compounds of the present invention are typically useful as herbicides for control of paddy weeds in rice.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2001Date of Patent: January 4, 2005Assignee: Korea Research Institute of Chemical TechnologyInventors: Eung-Kul Ryu, Hyoung-Rae Kim, Dong-Ju Jeon, Jong-Whan Song, Kyoung-Mahn Kim, Jung-No Lee, Hyoung-Cheul Kim, Kyung-Sik Hong
