Abstract: Title HERBICIDAL ACETALS AND KETALS This invention relates to novel furan- and thiophenesulfonamides such as 3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-N-¢(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3-5-triazin-2-yl)aminocarbonyl!-2-thiophenesulfonamide and N-¢(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)aminocarbonyl!-3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-2-thiophene-sulfonamide which are highly active pre-emergent and/or post-emergent herbicides. More specifically, the herbicides are of the formula: <IMG> I wherein Q is <IMG> Q-1 Q-2 Q-3 <IMG> Q-4 Q-5 Q-6 <IMG> or Q-7 Q-8 Q-9 <IMG> Q-10 R is H or CH3; R1 is <IMG> or <IMG> ; E is CH2 or a single bond; R2 is H, C1-C2 alkyl or Cl; R3 is H, C1-C3 alyl or C1-C3 alkoxy; R4 and R5 are independently C1-C3 alkyl; R6 and R7 are independently H or C1-C2 alkyl: W is O or S; W1 is O or S: Q1 and Q2 are independently O, S or NCH3; A is <IMG> A-1 A-2 A-3 <IMG> A-4 A-5 A-6 <IMG> A-7 X is H, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, C1-C4 halo alkoxy, C1-C4 haloalkyl, C1-C4 haloalkylthio, C1-C4 alkylthio, halogen, C2-C5 alkoxyalkoxy, amino, C1-C3 alkylamino or di(C1-C3)alkylamino; Y is H, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, C1-C4 halo alkoxy, C1-C4 haloalkylthio, C1-C4 alkylthio, halogen, C2-C5 alkoxyalkyl, C2-C5 alkoxyalkoxy, amino, C1-C3 alkylamino, di(C1-C3)alkylamino, C3-C4 alkenyloxy. C3-C4 alkynyloxy, C2-C5 alkylsulfinylalkyl, C1-C4 haloalkyl, C2-C5 alkylsulfonylalkyl. C3-C5 cycloalkyl, C2-C4 alkynyl, C2-C5 alkylthioalkyl, C(O)R8, <IMG> or N(OCH3)CH3; m is 2 or 3; L1 and L2 are independently O or S; R8 is H or CH3; R9 and R10 are independently C1-C2 alkyl; R11 i6 C1-C3 alkyl; R12 is H, F. Cl, NO2. C1-C2 alkyl, C1-C2 alkoxy, C1-C2 alkylthio, C1-C2 alkylsulfinyl, C1-C2 alkylsulfonyl, di(C1-C2)alkylsulfamoyl or CO2(C1-C2 alkyl); R13 is H, C1-C2 alkyl, C1-C2 alkoxy, C1, F or NO2; R14 is H. C1-C3 alkyl, Cl-C3 alkoxy, C1-C3 haloalkyl, C1-C3 haloalkoxy, Cl, Br, F, NO2. di(C1-C3)alkylsulfamoyl, C1-C3 alkylthio, C1-C3 alkylsulfinyl, C1-C3 alkylsulfonyl, amino, C1-C3 alkylamino, di(C1-C3)alkylamino. CH2OCH3, CH2SCH3 or CH2CN. Z is CH or N: Y1 is O or CH2: X1 CH3, OCH3, OCF2H; and Y2 is H or CH3; X2 is CH3, C2H5 or CH2CF3; Y3 is OCH3, OC2H5, SCH3, SC2H5, OCF2H . SCF2H, CH3 or C2H5: X3 is CH3 or OCH3; Y4 is CH3, OCH3, OC2H5 or Cl; and X4 is CH3, OCH3, OC2H5, CH2OCH3 or Cl; and their agriculturally suitable salts; provided that a) when X is Cl.
