Synthesis
The compounds of this invention can be made as outlined below. The compounds of Formula (IV), (VI), (VIII) or (X) can be prepared by reacting an appropriate 2-aminopyrimidine, 2-aminotriazine, 2-aminobicyclopyrimidine or 2-aminotriazole of Formula (III), (V), (VII) or (IX) with an appropriately substituted sulfonylisocyanate or isothiocyanate, of Formula (II), where Q, L, R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, X, Y, Z, X.sub.1, X.sub.2, Y.sub.1, Y.sub.2 and W are as previously defined.
The reaction is best carried out in inert solvents such as methylene chloride and acetonitrile. The mode of addition is not critical, however, it is often convenient to add a solution of the isocyanate or isothiocyanate of Formula (II) to a stirred suspension of the aminoheterocycle (III), (V), (VII) or (IX).
The reaction is generally exothermic. In some cases, the desired product is insoluble in the reaction medium and crystallizes from it in pure form. Products soluble in the reaction medium are isolated by evaporation of the solvent and trituration of the residue with solvents such as diethyl ether, 1-chlorobutane, or hexanes and filtration. ##STR12##
Compounds of Formula XIII may also be prepared by the procedure of Equation 5 wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, Q, L and A are as previously defined. ##STR13##
The reaction of Equation 5 is best carried out in methylene chloride at 25.degree. to 40.degree. C. for 24 to 96 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The product can be isolated by the addition of an aqueous acetic acid solution followed by extraction of the product into methylene chloride or direct filtration of a product of low solubility. The product can ordinarily be purified by trituration with solvents such as n-butyl chloride or ether or by column chromatography.
Further details of this reaction and the preparation of the carbamates of Formula XII can be found in unexamined European Patent Application No. 174-73.
Sulfonamides of Formula XI and XVIII can be prepared as shown by Equations 6 and 7. ##STR14##
The reduction of the nitro compounds such as XIV to anilines XV is achieved by procedures well known to those skilled in the art.
Anilines of Formula XV are converted to sulfonyl chlorides by well known procedures. For further details, see H. L. Yale and F. Sowinski, J. Org. Chem., 25, 1824 (1960).
Sulfonamides of Formula XI are obtained by treatment of sulfonyl chlorides of Formula XVI with NH.sub.3 by procedures known to those skilled in the art. ##STR15##
The reaction of Equation 7 is carried out in methylene chloride at 0.degree.-40.degree. C. for 24-72 hours. The product can be isolated by washing the methylene chloride reaction mixture with water followed by dilute aqueous HCl, drying the organic phase, filtering and evaporating the solvent.
Compounds of Formula XVII may be prepared by the process described in patent application U.S. Ser. No. 377,370, filed May 12, 1982.
Sulfonamides of Formula XI may conveniently be converted to the corresponding isocyanates or isothiocyanates of Formula II by methods described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,127,405.
The synthesis of the heterocyclicamine derivatives has been reviewed in "The Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds", a series published in Interscience Publ., New York and London.
2-Aminopyrimidines are described by D. J. Brown in "The Pyrimidines", Vol. XVI of the above series which are herein incorporated by reference.
The preparation of aminobicyclopyrimidines are described in unexamined European Pat. No. 15683.
The aminoheterocyclic intermediates of Formula III, V, VII or IX in which R is CH.sub.3, may be prepared by the following procedure, or by approprite modifications thereof. ##STR16##
A solution of the amine XVIII in concentrated hydrochloric acid is contacted with an aqueous sodium nitrite solution and the chloro compound XIX is isolated by filtration of the acidic solution (see for example, Bee and Rose, J. Chem. Soc. C., 2051 (1966) for the case in which Z is CH and X and Y are OCH.sub.3). Displacement of the chlorine may be accomplished by heating with an excess of methylamine in water to obtain the methylaminoheterocycle XX.
The preparation of 2-aminotriazoles of Formula IX are described in U.S. Ser. No. 382,711, filed May 28, 1982.

2-(Dimethylaminosulfonyloxy)benzenesulfonyl isocyanate
To 6.0 g (0.021 mole) 2-(dimethylaminosulfonyloxy)benzenesulfonamide suspended in 75 ml dry xylenes was added 2.1 g (0.021 mole) N-butyl isocyanate and a catalytic amount of 1,4-diazobicyclo[2.2.2]octane (.about.0.05 g). This mixture was rapidly heated to reflux temperature (.about.135.degree. C.) and 3.0 ml of phosgene was slowly added (at such a rate as to keep the reaction temperature greater than 128.degree. C.). The phosgene addition required .about.3 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, filtered under N.sub.2, and the solvent evaporated under reduced pressure. The infrared spectrum of the resultant oil ws consistent for 2-(dimethylaminosulfonyloxy)benzenesulfonyl isocyanate (2240 cm.sup.-1).

2-(Dimethylaminosulfonyloxy)benzenesulfonamide
To 6.8 g (0.04 mole) 2-hydroxybenzenesulfonamide in 100 ml methylene chloride was added 4.4 g (0.044 mole) triethylamine and 6.3 g (0.044 mole) dimethylsulfamoyl chloride in 5 ml methylene chloride, keeping the reaction temperature <10.degree. C. The mixture was then warmed to room temperature and stirred 72 hours. The reaction mixture was then diluted with 100 ml methylene chloride washed with 100 ml water, 100 ml 1% HCl and dried over MgSO.sub.4. The solvent was evaporated to give a crude yellow oil that slowly solidified on standing. The solids were then triturated with hexanes and filtered to give 6.1 g of a tan solid, m.p. 88.degree.-89.degree. C.

Formulations
Useful formulations of the compounds of Formula I can be prepared in conventional ways. They include dusts, granules, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates and the like. Many of these may be applied directly. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of from a few liters to several hundred liters per hectare. High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, can contain from about 0.1% to 99% by weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of (a) about 0.1% to 20% surfactant(s) and (b) about 1% to 99.9% solid or liquid inert diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:
TABLE V______________________________________ Active* Inert Ingredient Diluent(s) Surfactant(s)______________________________________Wettable Powders 20-90 0-74 1-10Oil Suspensions, 3-50 40-95 0-15Emulsions, Solutions,(including EmulsifiableConcentrates)Aqueous Suspension 10-50 40-84 1-20Dusts 1-25 70-99 0-5Granules and Pellets 0.1-95 5-99.9 0-15High Strength 90-99 0-10 0-2Compositions______________________________________ *Active ingredient plus at least one of a Surfactant or a Diluent equals 100 weight percent.
Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.
Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, N.J., but other solids, either mined or manufactured, may be used. The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, "Solvents Guide," 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950. Solubility under 0.1% is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at 0.degree. C. "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, N.J., as well as Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publishing Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foaming, caking, corrosion, microbiological growth, etc.
The methods of making such compositions are well known. Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example, Littler, U.S. Pat. No. 3,060,084). Granules and pellets may be made by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration technique, See J. E. Browning, "Agglomeration", Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp. 147ff. and "Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook", 5th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1973, pp. 8-57ff.

Utility
The compounds of the present invention and their agriculturally suitable salts are useful for broad-spectrum pre- and/or post-emergence weed control in areas where complete control of all vegetation is desired, such as around fuel storage tanks, ammunition depots, industrial storage area, parking lots, drive-in theaters, around billboards and railroad structures, and along highways. In addition, the subject compounds can be used for selective pre- or post-emergence weed control in cereal crops, such as wheat.
The rates of application for the compounds of the invention are determined by a number of factors, including their use as selective or general herbicides, the crop species involved, the types of weeds to be controlled, weather and climate, formulations selected, mode of application, amount of foliage present, etc. In general terms, the subject compounds should be applied at levels of around 0.01 to 10 kg/ha, the lower rates being suggested for use on lighter soils and/or those having a low organic matter content, for selective weed control or for situations where only short-term persistence is required.
The compounds of the invention may be used in combination with any other commercial herbicide examples of which are those of the triazine, triazole, uracil, urea, amide, diphenylether, carbamate and bipyridylium types.
The herbicidal properties of the subject compounds were discovered in a number of greenhouse tests. The test procedures and results are described below.
Test A
Seeds of crabgrass (Digitaria sp.), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia), morningglory (Ipomoea sp.), cocklebur (Xanthium sp.), sorghum, corn, soybean, sugar beet, rice, wheat, cotton and purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus) tubers were planted and treated pre-emergence with the test chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. At the same time, these crop and weed species were treated with a soil/foliage application. At the time of treatment, the plants ranged in height from 2 to 18 cm. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for sixteen days, after which all species were compared to controls and visually rated for response to treatment. The ratings, summarized in Table A, are based on a numerical scale extending from 0=no injury, to 10=complete kill. The accompanying descriptive symbols have the following meanings:
C=chlorosis/necrosis;
E=emergence inhibition;
G=growth retardation;
H=formative effect; and
U=unusual pigmentation.
The data indicate that the compounds tested have utility for pre- and/or post-emergence weed control in wheat. In addition, at higher rates of application the compounds should be useful for industrial weed control. ##STR61##
