1-Cyclopropyl tetrazolinones represented by the formulan n whereinn X represents C₁₋₃ alkyl, C₂₋₄ alkenyl or halogen, n represents a number of 0 to 5, R¹ and R² may be same or different, and each represents C₁₋₆ alkyl, C₂₋₆ alkenyl, C₂₋₆ alkynyl, C₃₋₇ cycloalkyl which may optionally be substituted by C₁₋₃ alkyl, epoxy-C₃₋₅ alkan-1-yl, phenyl which may optionally be substituted or aralkyl which may optionally be substituted, or R¹ and R² may optionally form, together with the N-atom to which they attach, a cyclic ring which may optionally be substituted, a process for their preparation, their use as herbicides, as well as novel intermediates for their preparation and processes for the production of such intermediates. |
