Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 169 words
A method of inhibiting the growth of undesirable plants which comprises applying to the plant system a herbicidally effective amount of a compound having the formula ##STR9## wherein X and Y are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, trifluoromethyl, halogen, cyano and nitro; n is zero or one provided that when n is zero, Z is selected from the group consisting of chloro and NR 1 R 2 wherein R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl; when n is one, Z is selected from the group consisting of alkyl having up to 12 carbon atoms inclusive, alkyl having up to 5 carbon atoms inclusive which have been substituted with from 1 to 3 halogen atoms, inclusive, benzyl, lower alkoxy lower alkyl, allyl, monochlorinated allyl, dichlorinated allyl, ##STR10## and agriculturally acceptable cations; wherein R 1 and R 2 are as previously defined, R 3 is hydrogen or methyl and R 4 is lower alkyl.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 169 words
A method of inhibiting the growth of undesirable plants which comprises applying to the plant system a herbicidally effective amount of a compound having the formula ##STR9## wherein X and Y are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, trifluoromethyl, halogen, cyano and nitro; n is zero or one provided that when n is zero, Z is selected from the group consisting of chloro and NR 1 R 2 wherein R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl; when n is one, Z is selected from the group consisting of alkyl having up to 12 carbon atoms inclusive, alkyl having up to 5 carbon atoms inclusive which have been substituted with from 1 to 3 halogen atoms, inclusive, benzyl, lower alkoxy lower alkyl, allyl, monochlorinated allyl, dichlorinated allyl, ##STR10## and agriculturally acceptable cations; wherein R 1 and R 2 are as previously defined, R 3 is hydrogen or methyl and R 4 is lower alkyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein Z is alkyl having up to 12 carbon atoms inclusive.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein X is trifluoromethyl and Y is hydrogen or trifluoromethyl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
A method according to claim 3 wherein X is in the 3-position.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 10 words
A method according to claim 4 wherein Y is hydrogen.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 13 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said compound has the formula ##STR11##
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 1 which comprises applying said compound to the soil before the emergence of the undesirable plants.
