Abstract:One hundred and twelve N-aryl-2-methyl-2-arylpropanamides and N-aryl-2-methyl-2arylbutanamides were synthesized and their herbicidal activities were measured. Most of the compounds exhibited strong herbicidal activity against Echinochloa oryzicola VASING., Scirpus juncoides ROXB. subsp. juncoides ROXB. and Cyperus serotinus RoTTB. in pot tests. Introduction of substituents into the two benzene rings varied the activity to different extents. Both a meta alkyl substituent in the amine moiety and an ortho substit… Show more
