Abstract:
1. A compound of formula I wherein A is a monocyclic or bicyclic aryl or heteroaryl which contains a heteroatom selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, and which is unsubstituted or substituted; and wherein, when A is substituted, then A is substituted by halogen, C R R R or R or R G is hydrogen or an agriculturally acceptable metal, sulfonium, ammonium or latentiating group; wherein, when G is a latentiating group, then G is phenyl(C wherein X R R R or R R R R and wherein: “aryl” means phenyl or naphthyl; “heteroaryl” means an aromatic ring system containing at least one heteroatom and consisting either of a single ring or of two fused rings; and “heterocyclyl” means a non-aromatic monocyclic or bicyclic ring system containing up to 7 atoms including one or two heteroatoms selected from O, S and N; and wherein: when present, the optional substituents on an alkyl moiety, or an alkyl-containing group larger than the corresponding alkyl, are one or more of halogen, nitro, cyano, C wherein, in the optional substituents on the alkyl moiety, C when present, the optional substituents on alkenyl or alkynyl are the optional substituents as defined for an alkyl moiety; when present, the optional substituents on heterocyclyl are C when present, the optional substituents on cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl are C and when present, the optional substituents on aryl, heteroaryl and carbocycles, unless otherwise indicated, are selected, independently, from halogen, nitro, cyano, isothiocyanato, C
