A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF 2-CHLORO-6 NITROANILINE DA PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF 2-CHLORO-6-NITROANILINE DERIVATIVES

摘要

This invention is directed to 2-chloro-6-nitro-aniline compounds of the formula IMAGE wherein A represents hydrogen, a straight or branched alkyl radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms a cycloalkyl radical having from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, a chlorine-substituted or hydroxyl-sustituted alkyl radical having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms, or an allyl or trifluoroacetyl group, B represents hydrogen or a methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or isopropyl group, or A and B represent together an alkylene radical optionally interrupted by oxygen, =NH or, =NCH3, and having up to 5 members, or the group =CH-N(CH3)2, R represents hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, or bromine or a trifluoromethyl, methyl, or methoxy group, and X represents oxygen or sulphur, and novel herbicidal compositions containing these compounds as active ingredients.
