     The presence of undesired vegetation causes substantial damage to useful crops, especially agricultural products that satisfy man&#39;s basic food and fiber needs, such as cotton, rice, corn, wheat, soybean and the like. The current population explosion and concomitant world food and fiber shortage demand improvements in the efficiency of producing these crops. Preventing or minimizing the loss of a portion of such valuable crops by killing or inhibiting the growth of undesired vegetation is one way of improving this efficiency. 
     A wide variety of materials useful for killing or inhibiting (controlling) the growth of undesired vegetation is available; such materials are commonly referred to as herbicides. The need exists however, for still more effective herbicides that destroy or control weeds without causing significant damage to useful crops.

     Synthesis 
     The compounds of this invention can be made, as described in Schemes 1 through 8, from the appropriately substituted quinolinesulfonamides. These sulfonamides can be prepared by aminating, with aqueous ammonia, the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides by known methods e.g., Crossley et. al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 60, 2222 (1938). Chlorosulfonation of appropriately substituted quinolines is known in the literature and affords the intermediate quinoline sulfonyl chlorides, e.g., J. Bankovskis, et. al., Latv. PSR Zinat. Akad. Vestis, Kim. Ser. 106 (1971). These procedures are outlined below in Scheme 1. ##STR21## 
     In Scheme 2 below, compounds of structure (II), where R 1  ≠SOR 3 , in dry tetrahydrofuran (THF) can be reacted with the heterocyclic isocyanate (III) where X&#39;, Y&#39; and Z are as previously defined, to give (IV). Compounds of structure (IV) can be contacted with sodium methoxide in methanol at 25°-65° C. for 1-24 hours to give, after neutralization with acid such as HCl, compounds of structure (V). ##STR22## 
     Compounds of Formula VII wherein R 1  ≠CO 2  R 2  and R 1  ≠SOR 3  may be prepared by reacting the appropriately substituted quinolinesulfonamide (II) with the appropriate methyl pyrimidinyl carbamate or triazinyl carbamate (VI) in the presence of an equimolar or slight excess of trimethylaluminum according to the procedure of Scheme 3 below. R 1 , X, Y and Z are as previously defined. ##STR23## 
     The reaction of Scheme 3 is best carried out in methylene chloride at 25° to 40° C. for 24-96 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The product is isolated by the addition of an aqueous acetic acid solution and an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution followed by extraction of the product into methylene chloride or direct filtration of a product of low solubility. The product is purified by washing with solvents as methyl acetate, by trituration with solvents as n-butyl chloride or ether, or by column chromatography. 
     The required carbamates (VI) of Scheme 3 can be prepared by reacting the corresponding heterocyclic amines (VIII) with sodium hydride and dimethyl carbonate in an inert solvent at ambient temperature, as illustrated in Scheme 4 below. The synthesis of heterocyclic amine derivatives (VIII) has been reviewed in &#34;The Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds&#34;, a series published by Interscience Publ., New York and London. 2-Aminopyrimidines are described by D. J. Brown in &#34;The Pyrimidines&#34;, Vol. XVI of the above series. 2-Amino-1,3,5-triazines can be synthesized according to the methods described by E. M. Smolin and L. Rapaport in &#34;s-Triazines and Derivatives,&#34; Vol. XIII of the same series. ##STR24## 
     In Scheme 5 below, compounds of structure (II) can be reacted with carbon disulfide and powdered potassium hydroxide at -5° to 25° in an inert polar solvent such as dimethylformamide (DMF) to form the corresponding dipotassium carbonimidodithioate. This compound can be dialkylated with excess alkyl halide and subsequently reacted at room temperature in an inert polar solvent such as DMF with a 2-aminoheterocycle to give compounds of structure IX. ##STR25## 
     Compounds of structure IX can be converted to compounds of structure VII by methods taught in the art, e.g., unexamined European Pat. No. 0013480 as illustrated in Scheme 6 below. ##STR26## 
     It should be noted that the method of choice for preparing a particular compound of structure (VII) is dependent upon the compatibility of the R 1  group with the reaction conditions employed in the above schemes. 
     Compounds of structures (IX and X) can also be prepared as described in Scheme 7 below. Compounds of structure (II) can be reacted with a heterocyclic isothiocyanate by the method of Grantham and Levitt as described in unexamined European Patent 5986, herein incorporated by reference. This compound can be alkylated with methyl iodide and base in an inert solvent as described by Grantham and Levitt in unexamined European Pat. No. 5986, herein incorporated by reference to give compounds of structure IX. ##STR27## 
     Compounds of Formula VIIb, where R 1  is SOR 3 , can be prepared from the appropriate compounds of Formula VIIa, where R 1  is SR 3 , by oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid as shown in Scheme 8. X, Y and Z are as previously defined. ##STR28##

     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, contain 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 diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:

 *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., &#34;Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers&#34;, 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, New Jersey, 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, &#34;Solvents Guide,&#34; 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° C. &#34;McCutcheon&#39;s Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual&#34;, MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey, as well as Sisely and Wood, &#34;Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents&#34;, 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 techniques. See J. E. Browning, &#34;Agglomeration&#34;, Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp. 147ff. and &#34;Perry&#39;s Chemical Engineer&#39;s Handbook&#34;, 5th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1973, pp. 8-57ff.

     The ingredients are blended, hammer-milled and then moistened with about 12% water. The mixture is extruded as cylinders about 3 mm diameter which are cut to produce pellets about 3 mm long. These may be used directly after drying, or the dried pellets may be crushed to pass a U.S.S. No. 20 sieve (0.84 mm openings). The granules held on a U.S.S. No. 40 sieve (0.42 mm openings) may be packaged for use and the fines recycled.

     The ingredients are blended and milled to pass through a 100 mesh screen. This material is then added to a fluid bed granulator, the air flow is adjusted to gently fluidize the material, and a fine spray of water is sprayed onto the fluidized material. The fluidization and spraying are continued until granules of the desired size range are made. The spraying is stopped, but fluidization is continued, optionally with heat, until the water content is reduced to the desired level, generally less than 1%. The material is then discharged, screened to the desired size range, generally 14-100 mesh (1410-149 microns), and packaged for use.

     Utility 
     The compounds of the present invention are active herbicides. They have utility for broadspectrum 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 areas, parking lots, drive-in theaters, around billboards, highway and railroad structures. Alternatively, certain compounds of this invention may be useful for the selective pre- or post-emergence weed control in crops such as wheat, soybeans and rice. 
     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 0.125 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 follow. 
     Test A 
     Seeds of crabgrass (Digitaria spp.), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), Cassia tora, morningglory (Ipomoea spp.), cocklebur (Xanthium spp.), sorghum, corn, soybean, rice, wheat as well as nutsedge tubers were planted in a growth medium and treated pre-emergence with the chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. At the same time, cotton having five leaves (including cotyledonary ones), bush beans with the third trifoliate leaf expanding, crabgrass, barnyardgrass and wild oats with two leaves, cassia with three leaves (including cotyledonary ones), morningglory and cocklebur with four leaves (including the cotyledonary ones), sorghum and corn with four leaves, soybean with two cotyledonary leaves, rice with three leaves, wheat with one leaf, and nutsedge with three-five leaves were sprayed. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for sixteen days, whereupon all species were compared to controls and visually rated for response to treatment. The ratings are based on a numerical scale extending from 0=no injury to 10=complete kill. The accompanying descriptive symbols have the following meanings: G=growth retardation; C=chlorosis/necrosis; D=defoliation; 6Y=abscised buds or flowers; U= unusual pigmentation; E=emergence inhibition; and H=formative effects. The ratings for the compounds tested by this procedure are presented in Table A. It will be seen that certain of the compounds tested have utility for selective post-emergence weed control in wheat.

     Test B 
     Two plastic bulb pans were filled with fertilized and limed Fallsington silt loam soil. One pan was planted with corn, sorghum, Kentucky bluegrass and several grassy weeds. The other pan was planted with cotton, soybeans, purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus), and several broadleaf weeds. The following grassy and broadleaf weeds were planted: crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli) wild oats (Avena fatua), johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense), dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum), giant foxtail (Setaria faberii), cheatgrass (Bromus secalinus), mustard (Brassica arvensis), cocklebur (Xanthium pennsylvanicum), morningglory, (Ipomoea hederacea), cassia (Cassia tora), teaweed (Sida spinosa), velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti), and jimsonweed (Datura stramonium). A 12.5 cm diameter paper cup was also filled with prepared soil and planted with rice and wheat. Another 12.5 cm cup was planted with sugarbeets. The above four containers were treated preemergence with several test compounds within the scope of the invention. 
     Twenty-eight days after treatment, the plants were evaluated and visually rated for response to the chemical treatments utilizing the rating system described previously for Test A. The data are summarized in Table B. Note that certain compounds are useful as pre-emergence treatments for weed control in crops such as soybeans and wheat.
