[0026] In the definitions of compounds shown in the above general formulas and in all the following structural formulas, the technical terms used, whether alone or in compound terms, represent the following substituents: alkyl groups having more than two carbon atoms can be straight-chain or branched. For example, in the compound term "cycloalkylalkyl," the alkyl group can be -CH2-, -CH2CH2-, -CH(CH3)-, -C(CH3)2-, etc. The alkyl group is, for example, C1 alkyl-methyl; C2 alkyl-ethyl; C3 alkyl-propyl such as n-propyl or isopropyl; C4 alkyl-butyl such as n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, or 2-butyl; C5 alkyl-pentyl such as n-pentyl; C6 alkyl-hexyl such as n-hexyl, isohexyl, and 1,3-dimethylbutyl. Similarly, alkenyl groups are, for example, vinyl, allyl, 1-methylprop-2-en-1-yl, 2-methylprop-2-en-1-yl, but-2-en-1-yl, but-3-en-1-yl, 1-methylbut-3-en-1-yl, and 1-methylbut-2-en-1-yl. Alkynyl groups are, for example, ethynyl, propynyl, but-2-yn-1-yl, but-3-yn-1-yl, and 1-methylbut-3-yn-1-yl. Multiple bonds can be in any position in each unsaturated group. Cycloalkyl groups are carbocyclic saturated ring systems having, for example, three to six carbon atoms, such as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, or cyclohexyl. Similarly, cycloalkenyl groups are monocyclic alkenyl groups having, for example, three to six carbon ring members, such as cyclopropenyl, cyclobutenyl, cyclopentenyl, and cyclohexenyl, wherein double bonds can be in any position. Halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine.

[0027] Unless otherwise specified, the term "aryl" in this invention includes, but is not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl, and... The "heterocyclic group" includes, but is not limited to, saturated or unsaturated non-aromatic cyclic groups. And, including but not limited to, heteroaryl groups, i.e., aromatic cyclic groups containing, for example, 3 to 6 ring atoms and optionally fused with benzo[a] rings, wherein 1 to 4 (e.g., 1, 2, 3, or 4) heteroatoms are selected from oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur, for example

[0028] The terms "optional" or "optionally" mean that the event or situation described below may or may not occur, and the description includes instances where said event or situation occurs and instances where said event or situation does not occur. For example, the term "optionally...substituted" means that the specified atom or group is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents. If a group is substituted by a group, this should be understood to mean that the group is substituted by one or more groups, either the same or different, selected from those groups mentioned. Furthermore, the same or different substitution characters contained in the same or different substituents are chosen independently and may be the same or different. This also applies to ring systems formed from different atoms and units. Meanwhile, the scope of the claims excludes compounds that are chemically unstable under standard conditions, as known to those skilled in the art.

[0029] Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the phrase "replaced by at least one group" in this invention refers to being replaced by, for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 groups; groups without specific attachment positions (including heterocyclic groups, aryl groups, etc.) can be attached at any position, including positions attached to C or N; if it is substituted, the substituent can also be substituted at any position, as long as it conforms to the rules of chemical bond attachment. For example, a heteroaryl group substituted by one methyl group. Can represent wait.

[0030] Depending on the nature of the substituents and the manner in which they are attached, compounds of general formula I and their derivatives can exist as stereoisomers. Stereoisomers can be obtained from mixtures obtained during preparation by conventional separation methods, such as chromatographic separation. Similarly, stereoisomers can be selectively prepared using stereoselective reactions and optically active starting materials and / or auxiliaries. This invention also relates to all stereoisomers contained in general formula I but not specifically defined, and mixtures thereof.

[0031] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the oxopyrazinone compounds, comprising the following steps:

[0032] Compounds II and III undergo a condensation reaction to give compound IV, and compound IV undergoes a rearrangement reaction to give compound I. The reaction formulas are as follows:

[0033] Where L represents a leaving group (such as OH, halogen, p-nitrophenoxy or cyano, etc.), and the substituents X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8 and M4 are defined as described above.

[0034] In one specific embodiment, the condensation reaction is carried out in the presence of a base and a solvent.

[0035] In one specific embodiment, the rearrangement reaction is carried out in the presence of a catalyst (such as acetone cyanohydrin), a base, and a solvent.

[0036] In another specific embodiment, the solvent is selected from at least one of aromatic hydrocarbons (such as benzene, chlorobenzene or toluene), N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, acetonitrile, dichloroethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, 1,4-dioxane, dichloromethane or ethyl acetate.

[0037] In another specific embodiment, the base is selected from at least one of inorganic or organic bases, such as NaH, KH, NaOH, KOH, K2CO3, Na2CO3, NaHCO3, Cs2CO3, KF, CsF, pyrazole, triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, pyridine, potassium trimethylsilanol, AcOK, AcONa, MeONa, EtONa, t-BuONa, t-BuOK, etc.

[0038] The compounds described in this invention can be prepared by referring to the relevant methods recorded in patent WO2009016841A1, etc.

[0039] The present invention also provides a herbicide composition comprising an effective amount of at least one of the oxopyrazinone compounds.

[0040] In one embodiment, the herbicide composition further includes an agriculturally chemically acceptable formulation adjuvant.

[0041] In another embodiment, the herbicide composition further includes one or more additional herbicides and / or safeners in herbicidal amounts.

[0042] The present invention also provides a method for controlling unwanted plants, comprising applying an effective amount of at least one of the oxopyrazinone compounds or the herbicide composition thereof to the plant or its location or to the soil or water body to control the emergence or growth of unwanted plants.

[0043] Preferably, the unwanted plants include herbicide-resistant or tolerant weed species.

[0044] The present invention also provides the use of at least one of the oxopyrazinone compounds or the herbicide composition thereof in controlling unwanted plants.

[0045] Preferably, the oxopyrazinone compounds are used to control weeds in useful crops.

[0046] More preferably, the useful crop includes genetically modified crops or crops treated with genome editing technology, and the weeds include herbicide-resistant or tolerant weed species.

[0047] For many economically important monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous pests, the compounds of Formula I of this invention exhibit outstanding herbicidal activity. The active substances of this invention are also effective against perennial weeds that grow from rhizomes, rootstocks, or other perennial organs and are difficult to control. In this regard, it is generally not important whether the substance is used before sowing, before germination, or after germination. Representative examples of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weed populations that can be controlled by the compounds of this invention are specifically mentioned, without limiting the specific species. Examples of weed species to which the active substances are effective include monocotyledons: annuals of *Oat*, *Lolium*, *Alopecurus*, *Eleocharis*, *Barnyardgrass*, *Digitaria*, *Setaria*, and *Sedge*, and perennials of *Agrostis*, *Cynodon*, *Imperata*, and *Sorghum*, as well as perennials of *Sedge*.

[0048] Regarding dicotyledonous weed species, its effects can be extended to annual species such as *Galium aparine*, *Viola*, *Veronica*, *Sesamum indicum*, *Stellaria*, *Amaranthus*, *Sinapis*, *Ipomoea*, *Heliotropium*, *Chaenomeles*, and *Abutilon*, and perennial weeds such as *Convolvulus*, *Thistle*, *Rumex*, and *Artemisia*. The active substances of this invention effectively control harmful plants such as barnyard grass, *Sagittaria*, *Alisma*, *Eupatorium*, *Sedum*, and *Sedge* under the undetermined condition of rice sowing. If the compounds of this invention are applied to the soil surface before germination, weed seedlings can be completely prevented before they emerge, or growth can be stopped when the weeds develop cotyledons, eventually leading to their complete death after three to four weeks. The compounds of this invention exhibit particularly excellent activity against the following plants: *Apira*, *Sesamum indicum*, *Polygonum cuspidatum*, *Stellaria*, *Veronica ivy*, *Veronica arabiculata*, *Viola tricolor* and *Amaranthus*, *Galium aparine*, and *Kochia scoparia*.

[0049] While the compounds of this invention exhibit excellent herbicidal activity against both monocot and dicot weeds, they cause little to no damage to important economic crops such as peanuts, wheat, barley, rye, rice, corn, sugar beets, cotton, and soybeans. They are particularly compatible with cereal crops, such as wheat, barley, and corn, especially wheat. Therefore, the compounds of this invention are highly suitable for the selective control of unwanted plants in agricultural or ornamental crops.

[0050] Due to their herbicidal properties, these active substances can be used to control harmful plants in known or future genetically engineered plant cultivation. Transgenic plants typically possess superior traits, such as resistance to specific insecticides, particularly specific herbicides, and resistance to plant diseases or pathogenic microorganisms, such as specific insects or fungi, bacteria, or viruses. Other specific traits relate to conditions such as quantity, quality, storage stability, composition, and special components of the product. Thus, it is known that transgenic plant products have increased starch content or improved starch quality or different fatty acid compositions.

[0051] The compounds of Formula I of the present invention, or salts thereof, are preferably used in the cultivation of economically important genetically modified crops and ornamental plants, such as cereals, including wheat, barley, rye, oats, millet, rice, cassava, and corn, or in the cultivation of sugar beets, cotton, soybeans, rapeseed, potatoes, tomatoes, peas, and other vegetable plants. The compounds of Formula I are preferably used as herbicides for the cultivation of useful plants that are resistant or have been genetically engineered to be resistant to the toxic effects of the herbicides.

[0052] Traditional methods for breeding plants with improved morphology compared to known plants include, for example, conventional mating methods and mutant breeding. In other words, new plants with improved traits can be obtained using genetic engineering methods (see, for example, EP-0221044 A, EP-0131624 A). Several methods have been described, for example:

[0053] - To improve starch synthesis in plants, genetic engineering is used to modify crop plants (e.g., WO 92 / 11376, WO 92 / 14827, WO 91 / 19806);

[0054] - Transgenic crop plants resistant to specific herbicides, such as glufosinate-methyl (e.g., EP-0242236 A, EP-0242246 A), glyphosate-based herbicides (WO 92 / 00377), or sulfonylurea herbicides (EP-0257993 A, US-5013659 A);

[0055] - For example, genetically modified cotton plants can produce Bt toxins, which can defend against certain pests (EP-0142924 A, EP-0193259 A).

[0056] - A genetically modified crop plant with improved fatty acid composition (WO91 / 13972).

[0057] Many molecular biotechnologies for preparing transgenic plants with improved traits are known (see, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Amplification, Laboratory Manual, 2nd ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York; or Winnacker, “Gene and Cloning,” VCH Weinheim, 2nd ed., 1996; or Christou, “Trends in Plant Science,” 1 (1996) 423-431). To perform genetic engineering operations, nucleic acid molecules may be introduced into plasmids, resulting in mutations or sequence alterations through DNA sequence recombination. Using standard methods, such as exchanging substrates, removing portions of the sequence, or adding natural or synthetic sequences, can be employed. To link DNA fragments together, it is possible to attach conjugates or linkers to the fragments.

[0058] Plant cells containing reduced-activity gene products can be prepared by methods such as expressing at least one appropriate antisense RNA or sense RNA to achieve co-inhibition, or by expressing at least one appropriately constructed ribozyme that specifically cleaves the transcript of the aforementioned gene product.

[0059] For this purpose, it is possible to use a DNA molecule containing the entire coding sequence of the gene product, including any possible flanking sequences, or a DNA molecule containing only a portion of the coding sequence, which must be long enough to achieve an antisense effect in the cell. Alternatively, a sequence that is highly homologous to but not identical to the coding sequence of the gene product can also be used.

[0060] When nucleic acid molecules are expressed in plants, the synthesized proteins can be localized in any desired plant cell compartment. However, to localize in a specific compartment, it is possible, for example, to link the coding region to a DNA sequence to ensure localization at a specific location. These sequences are known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, Braun et al., EMBO J.11 (1992) 3219-3227; Wolter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85 (1988), 846-850; Sonnewald et al. Plant J.1 (1991), 95-106).

[0061] Using known techniques, transgenic plant cells can be recombined into the entire plant. Transgenic plants can be any desired plant variety, i.e., monocots and dicots. In this way, it is possible to obtain transgenic plants with improved traits by overexpressing, inhibiting or suppressing homologous (=natural) genes or gene sequences, or by expressing heterologous (=external) genes or gene sequences.

[0062] When the active substances of this invention are used on genetically modified crops, in addition to the inhibitory effect on harmful plants observed in other crops, they often exhibit specific effects on the corresponding genetically modified crops. For example, they can improve or expand the range of weed control, improve the application rate, preferably combine the herbicide resistance of the genetically modified crop with the performance of the herbicide, and affect the growth and yield of the genetically modified crop. Therefore, this invention also provides the use of the compounds as herbicides to control harmful plants in genetically modified crop plants.

[0063] Furthermore, the compounds of this invention can significantly regulate crop growth. By modulating plant metabolism, these compounds can be used to directionally control plant components and promote harvesting, for example, by causing plant drying and dwarfing. They are also suitable for regulating and inhibiting unwanted plant growth without disrupting crop growth. Inhibiting plant growth plays a crucial role in many monocot and dicot crops because it can reduce or completely prevent lodging.

[0064] The compounds of the present invention can be applied using common formulations, including wettable powders, concentrated emulsions, sprayable solutions, powders, or granules. Thus, the present invention also provides herbicide compositions comprising compounds of formula I. Compounds of formula I can be formulated in various ways depending on typical biological and / or chemical physical parameters. Examples of suitable formulation choices include: wettable powders (WP), water-soluble powders (SP), water-soluble concentrates, concentrated emulsions (EC), emulsions such as oil dispersed in water and water dispersed in oil (EW), sprayable solutions, suspension concentrates (SC), dispersible oil suspensions (OD), suspensions diluted with oil or water, solutions miscible with oil, powders (DP), capsule suspensions (CS), seeddressing compositions, granules for broadcasting and soil application, spray granules, coating granules and absorbent granules, water-dispersible granules (WG), water-soluble granules (SG), ULV (ultra-low volume) formulations, microcapsules, and wax products. These individual formulation types are known and described in the following literature, for example, Winnacker-Küchler, “Chemische Techonologie” [Chemical Processes], Vol. 7, C. Hauser Verlag Munich, 4th ed. 1986; Wade van Valkenburg, “Pesticide Formulations”, Marcel Dekker, NY, 1973; K. Martens, “Spray Drying” Handbook, 3rd ed. 1979, G. Goodwin Ltd. London.

[0065] Necessary formulation adjuvants, such as inert substances, surfactants, solvents, and other additives, are also known and described in the following documents, for example, Watkins's "Handbook of Powder Diluents, Insecticides, and Carriers," 2nd ed., Darland, Caldwell, NJ; Hv01phen's "Introduction to Clay Colloid Chemistry," 2nd ed., J. Wiley and Sons, NY; C. Marsden's "Solvent Guide," 2nd ed., Interscience, NY 1963; McCutcheon's "Annual Report on Detergents and Emulsifiers," MC Publishing, Ridgewood, NJ; Sisley and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surfactants," Chemical Publishing, NY 1964; of [Ethylene oxide adduct surfactants], Wiss. Verlagagesell. Stuttgart 1976; Winnacker-Küchler, “Chemische Technologie” [Chemical Processes], Vol. 7, C. Hauser Verlag Munich, 4th edition 1986.

[0066] Wettable powders are uniformly dispersible in water and, in addition to the active ingredient, include diluents or inert substances, ionic and nonionic surfactants (wetting agents, dispersants), such as polyethoxyalkylphenols, polyethoxy fatty alcohols, polyoxyethyl aliphatic amines, fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ether sulfates, alkyl sulfonates, alkyl phenyl sulfonates, sodium lignosulfonate, sodium 2,2'-dinaphthylmethane-6,6'-disulfonate, sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulfonate, or sodium oleoylmethyl taurate. To prepare wettable powders, the active ingredient of the herbicide is finely ground, for example using common equipment such as hammer mills, fan mills, and jet mills, while adjuvants are mixed in simultaneously or sequentially.

[0067] Concentrated emulsions are prepared by dissolving active ingredients in an organic solvent, such as butanol, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, xylene, or a mixture of higher-boiling aromatic compounds or hydrocarbons, and then adding one or more ionic and / or nonionic surfactants (emulsifiers). Examples of emulsifiers that can be used are alkylaryl sulfonates of calcium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, or nonionic emulsifiers such as fatty acid polyethylene glycol esters, alkyl aromatic polyethylene glycol ethers, fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ethers, propylene oxide-ethylene oxide condensation products, alkyl polyethers, sorbitan esters such as sorbitan fatty acid esters, or polyethylene oxide sorbitan esters such as polyethylene oxide sorbitan fatty acid esters.

[0068] The active substance and finely ground solid material are ground to obtain a powder. The solid material may be talc, natural clay such as kaolin, bentonite, and pyrophyllite, or diatomaceous earth. A water- or oil-based suspension may be prepared, for example, by wet grinding using a commercially available glass bead mill, with or without the addition of a surfactant of the other formulation type mentioned above.

[0069] Emulsions, such as oil-in-water (EW) emulsions, can be prepared using an aqueous organic solvent, a stirrer, a colloid mill, and / or a static mixer, and if necessary, by adding a surfactant of another formulation type as described above.

[0070] Granules can be prepared by spraying the active material onto an adsorbent and granulating it using an inert material, or by concentrating the active material onto the surface of a carrier such as sand or kaolinite and granulating it using a binder such as polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate, or mineral oil. Suitable active materials can be granulated using methods for preparing fertilizer granules, and fertilizers can be mixed in if necessary. Aqueous suspension granules can be prepared using conventional methods such as spray-drying, fluidized bed granulation, disc granulation, mixing using a high-speed mixer, and extrusion without solid inert material.

[0071] For methods of preparing granules using grinding discs, fluidized beds, extruders, and spraying, see the following processes, for example, “Spray Drying Handbook,” 3rd edition, 1979, G.

[0072] Agricultural chemical formulations typically contain 0.1% to 99%, particularly 0.1% to 95%, of active ingredient Formula I by weight. The concentration of active ingredient in wettable powders is, for example, from about 10% to 99% by weight, with the usual formulation components constituting the remainder to 100% by weight. The concentration of active ingredient in concentrated emulsions can be from about 1% to 90% by weight, preferably 5% to 80%. Powder formulations contain 1% to 30% active ingredient by weight, typically preferably 5% to 20% by weight; however, sprayable solutions contain about 0.05% to 80% by weight, preferably 2% to 50% by weight. The content of active ingredient in aqueous suspension granules depends primarily on whether the active ingredient is liquid or solid, and on the adjuvants, fillers, etc., used during granulation. The content of active ingredient in aqueous suspension granules is, for example, between 1% and 95% by weight, preferably between 10% and 80% by weight.

[0073] The formulation of the active substance may also include thickeners, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, penetrants, preservatives, antifreeze agents, solvents, fillers, carriers, colorants, defoamers, evaporation inhibitors, and pH and viscosity adjusters that are commonly used in all cases.

[0074] Based on these formulations, they may also be mixed with other insecticidal active substances such as insecticides, acaricides, herbicides and fungicides, or with safeners, fertilizers and / or plant growth regulators. The mixing method may be pre-mixed or bottled.

[0075] In compound formulations or tank-mix formulations, suitable active substances that can be mixed with the compounds of Formula I of the present invention are, for example, known substances in the *World Encyclopedia of New Pesticide Varieties*, China Agricultural Science and Technology Press, September 2010, and the literature cited herein. For example, the herbicidal active substances mentioned below can be mixed with Compound I (Note: the name of the compound is either its common name according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) or its chemical name, with a code where appropriate):
