wherein R~, R2, R3, R, R5 and R~ are a~ previously defined to give a co~pound of formula I wherein R~ H.
Thi~ rearrangement i5 con~eniently ef~ected by reacting the compound .

.

20r~2~34 of formula II with a cyanide source and a moderate base.
For example, the reaction may 'oe carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of a source of cyanide anion and/or hydrogen cyanide, together with 2 molar excess, with respect to the enol ester, of a moderate base. The reaction is conveniently carried out in a solvent which is inert under the reaction conditions, e~g. 1,2-dichloroethane, toluene, aceto-nitrile, methylene chlorlde, ethyl acetate, dimethylforma~ide ~DMF) and methyl isobutyl kecone (MIBK). In general, depending on the nature of the reactants and tho cyanide source, the rearrangement may be conduc~ed at temperatures up to about 800C. In som~ cases, for instanCQ when there is a possible problem of excessive by-product formation, the temperatures should be kept at about 400C maximum.
Preferred cyanlde sources are alkali metal cyanides such as sodium and potassium cyanide; cyanohydrins of methyl alkyl ketones having from 1-4 carbon atoms in the al~yl groups, such as acetone or methyl isobutyl ketone cyanohydrins; cyanohydrins of benzaldehyde or of C2-C~ aliphatic aldehydes such as acetaldehyd~, proplonaldehyde, 8tC., cyanohydrins; zinc cyanide;
tri(lower alkyl) silyl cyanides, notably trimethyl silyl cyanide; and hydrogen cyanide itself. Among cyanohydrins the preferred cyanide source is acetone cyanohydrin. The cy~nide source is used in an amount up to about 50 mole percent based on the enol ester. Generally about 1^10 mole % of the cyanids source is preferred.
By the term "moderaee base" i9 meant a substance which acts as a base yet whose strength or activity as a base lie~ between that of stron~ bases such as hydroxides (which could cause hydrolysis of the enol ester) and that of weak bases such as bicarbonates (whlch would not function effectively). Moderate bases suitable for use in this reaction include both organic bases such as tertiary amines and inorganic bases such as alkali metal carbonates and phosphates. Suitable tertiary amines include trialkylamines such as triethylamine, trialkanola~ines such as triathanol-amine, and pyridine. Suitable lnorganic bases include potassium carbonate and trisodium phosphate. The base is used in an amount of from about 1 to about 4 moles per mole of enol ester, preferably about 1.3-2 moles per mole.
When the cyanida source is an alkal~ metal yanide, part~cularly potassium cyanide, a phase trAnsfer catalyst ~ay be included in the reaction. Particularly suitable phas~ transfer catalyst3 are the Crown ethers.
Compounds of formula I where R~ is other than hydro~en can be prepared by reacting a compount o~ ~ormula I wherein R~ is hydrogen with either a) the group R40-OH and a catalyst, or b) the group R40~Q and a moderate bsse, wheroin Q i5 8 halogen atom, to give a compound of formula I where R~o i~ the de~ired substituent.

The above reaction a) is carried out in the presence of a catalyst such as concentra~ed sulfuric acid. The reaction is conveniently carried out in a solvent which is also the reactant such as methanol, and at an elevated temperature.
The above reaction b) is carried out in the presence of a moderate base such as triethylamine or pyridine and oonveniently at RT or below.
The compounds of formula I may be recovered from the reaction mixture in which they are formed by working up by es~ablished procedures.
The compounds of fo~ula II may be prep~red by reacting a compound lO of formula III R

with a compound of formula IV

The novel compounds of formula I are useful for the control of weeds, using pre- and/or post-emergent treatments. Compounds of formula I are also useful as plant growth regulators (PGRs) and acaricides. T*e compounds can be applied in the form of dusts, granules, solutions, emulsions1 wettable powders, flowableg and suspension~. Application of a compound of the present in~ention as herbicide~ ;s made according to conventional procedure to the weeds or their locus using an herbicidally effective amount of the compounds, usually from abou~ one-ten~h or les~ to ten pounds per acre. Th application of a compound of the present invantion to the nlocus~ of the weed includes application to the seeds, the plant (weed) or parts of the plant, or the soil.
Applicatlon of a compound of the present invention as an acaricide is made according to conventional procedure to the site of infestation using an acaricidally effective amount of the compound, usually 100 g/ha to 1 kg/ha.
The term "herbicide," as used herein, refers to an active ingredient ~0 which modifies the growth of plants becaus~ of phytotoxic or plant growth regulatin~ properties so as to retard the growth of the plant or damage the plant sufficiently to kill it.
Compounds of the present invention, when applied as either post or pre-emer~ents, demonstrate high levels of herbicidal acti~ity on broadleaf, ~rass and sedge weeds. They also exhibit s~lectivity in wheat, corn, cotton, some varieties of soybean and in some case~, ric~.
In the use of the compounds of formula I for combatting weeds and acari, a compound of formula I, or mixtures thereo~, can conveniently be employed as composltions in association with acceptable diluent(s) for application to the weed, acarl or their loci. Such compositions also form part of the present invention.
Methods of preparing suitable formulations which can be used with a compound of the present invention are described in the lieer~ture along with suitable liquid and solid carriers, such a~ in U.S. Patent 4,192,669 and 4,163,661, which are incorporated herein by reference. The optimum usage of a compound of the present inven~ion is readily determinablP by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine testing such a~ ~reenhouse tes~ing and small plot testing.
Sui~able ~ormulations contain from 0.01 ~o 99% by weight o active ingredient, from 0 to 20~ of ~ur~actant and fzom 1 to 99.99~ of qolld or liquid diluent(s). Higher ratio~ of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes deairable and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixlng. Application forms oP a composition generally contain between 0.01 and 254 by weight of activs ingredient. Lower or higher ~ ' ' ' ' ' ~07~3~

levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use, the physlcal properties of the compound and the mode of application. Concen~rate forms of a compositlon intended to be diluted before use generally contain between 2 and 90~, preferably between 5 and 81~ by weight of active ingredient.
Useful formula~ions of the compounds of formula I include dusts, granules, suspension concentrates, wettable powders, flowables and the like. They are obtained by conventional manner, e.g. by mixing a compound of formula I with the diluent(s) and optionally with other ingredients.
Alternatively, the compounds of formula I may be used in micro-encapsulated form.
The compounds of for~ula I can be combined with a cycLodextrin to make a cyclodextrin inclusi~n complex for apylication to the weed, acari or their loci.
Agriculturally acceptable additives may be employed in the herbicidal compositions ~o i~prove the perform~nce of the actlve ingredient and to reduce foaming, ca~ing and corrosion, for example.
"Surfactant" as used herein means an agriculturally acceptable material which imparts emulsifiability, spreading, wetting, dlspersibility or other surface-modifying properties. Examples of surfactants are sodium lignin sulfonate and lauryl sulfate.
"Diluent" as used herein means a liquid or solid agriculturally acceptable material used to dilute a concentratsd material to a usable or desirable strength. For dusts or granule~ it can be e.g. talc, kaolin or diatomaceous earth, for liquid concentrate for~s for example a hydrocarbon such as xylene or an alcohol such as isopropanol, and for liquid application forms e.g. water or diesel oil.
The compositions of this inventio~ can also compris~ other compounds having biological activity, e.g, compounds having similar or complementary acaricidal or herbicidal activity for broadsyectrum weed control or compounds having an~idotal, fungicidal, insecticidal or insect attractant activity.
The following examples are provided to illustrate the practice of ths present invention. Temperature is giYen in degrees Centigrade. RT means ~5 room temperature. Parts and percen~a~es are by weigh~.
