Process for Producing Compound [951 from Compound 194] Compound [95] can be produced by reacting compound [94] with nitric acid in a solvent. The reaction temperature is usually in the range of 0° to 100°C. The reaction time is usually in the range of a moment to 24 hours. The amounts of the reagents to be used in the reaction, although the proportion of 1 mole of nitric acid to 1 mole of compound [94] is ideal, can be freely changed depending upon the reaction conditions. Examples of the solvent which can be used include acidic solvents such as mixtures of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. (see Organic Synthesis Collective, Vol. 1, p. 372) Process for Producing Compound [961 from Compound [95] Compound [96] can be produced by reducing compound [95] in a mixture of acetic acid, iron powder, and water. The reaction temperature is usually in the range of 0° to 100°C. The reaction time is usually in the range of a moment to 24 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture is subjected to ordinary post-treatments such as extraction with an organic solvent and concentration, followed by, if necessary, subsequent purification by a technique such as column chromatography or recrystallization. Thus the desired compound can be isolated.

The present compounds have substantially the same characteristics as those of the herbicidal compounds described in the publication of International Patent Application, WO95/34659. In the case where crop plants with tolerance imparted by introducing a herbicide tolerance gene described in the publication are cultivated, the present com¬ pounds can be used at greater doses than those used when ordinary crop plants without tolerance are cultivated, and it is, therefore, possible to attain effective control of other unfavorable plants. When the present compounds are used as active ingredients of herbicides, they are usually mixed with solid or liquid carriers or diluents, surfactants, and other auxiliary agents to give formulations such as emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowables, granules, concentrated emulsions, and water-dispersible granules. These formulations may contain any of the present compounds as an active ingredient at an amount of 0.001 % to 80% by weight, preferably 0.005% to 70% by weight, based on the total weight of the formulation. Examples of the solid carrier or diluent may include fine powders or granules of the following materials: mineral matters such as kaolin clay, attapulgite clay, bentonite, terra alba, pyrophyllite, talc, diatomaceous earth, and calcite; organic substances such as walnut shell powder; water-soluble organic substances such as urea; inorganic salts such as ammonium sulfate; and synthetic hydrated silicon oxide. Examples of the liquid carrier or diluent may include aromatic hydrocarbons such as methylnaphthalene, phenylxylylethane, and alkylbenzenes (e.g., xylene); alcohols such as isopropanol, ethylene glycol, and 2-ethoxyethanol; esters such as phthalic acid dialkyl esters; ketones such as acetone, cyclohexanone, and isophorone; mineral oils such as machine oil; vegetable oils such as soybean oil and cotton seed oil; dimethylsulfoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, N-methylpyrrolidone, water, and the like.

The present compounds are usually formulated as described above and then used for the pre- or post-emergence soil, foliar, or flooding treatment of unfavorable weeds. The soil treatment may include soil surface treatment and soil incorporation. The foliar treatment may include application over the plants and directed application in which a chemical is applied only to the unfavorable weeds so as to keep off the crop plants. The present compounds can be used, if necessary, in combination with other compounds having herbicidal activity. Examples of the compounds which can be used in combination with the present compounds may include various compounds described in Catalog 1995 Edition of Farm Chemicals Handbook (Meister Publishing Company); AG CHEM NEW COMPOUND REVIEW, VOL. 13, 1995 (AG CHEM INFORMATION SERVICE); or JOSOUZAI KENKYU SOUR AN (Hakuyu-sha).

In these cases, the present compounds are usually formulated in the same manner as the case where they are used as active ingredients of herbicides, and used alone or in combination with other harvesting aids for foliar treatment before the harvesting of crops.

The solvent was distilled out under reduced pressure, and the residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography, which afforded 8.8 g of 2-(2-fluoro-4-chloro-5- hydroxyphenyl)-4-methyl-5-trifluoromethylpyridazin-3-one (compound 1-391).

Production Example 37 (Production of Compound 1-332) First, 2 g of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxo-l-propanal l-(4-chlorophenylhydrazone) and 2 g of ethyl diethylphosphonoacetate were mixed with 20 ml of triethylamine, and the reaction was allowed to proceed at 50°C for 24 hours. The solvent was distilled out under reduced pressure, and the residue was subjected to column chromatography, which afforded 1.16 g of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-trifluoromethylpyridazin-3-one (compound 1-332). Reference Example 5 The 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxopropanal 1 -(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenyl- hydrazone) produced in Production Example 19 can also be produced by the following process. First, 20.1 g of ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate and 25 g of sodium acetate were dissolved in 150 ml of water, to which a diazonium solution in hydrochloric acid prepared from 20.3 g of 4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyaniline, 20 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 20 ml of water, and 7.35 g of sodium nitrite was added dropwise at 10°C or lower.
