This disclosure relates to derivatives of N-trifluoroacetyl-N-phosphonomethylglycinates wherein different moieties are attached to the phosphorus atom, to herbicidal compositions containing same and to the herbicidal use thereof. n The novel N-trifluoroacetyl-N- phosphonomethylglycinates of this invention are those having the formulan wherein R is an alkyl group of from 1 to 10 carbon atoms or chlorinated lower alkyl group, R, is a member of the group consisting of lower alkoxy, lower alkylthio, phenoxy, phenylthio, substituted phenoxy, substituted phenylthio, lower alkylamino, lower dialkylamino, morpholino and N-piperidinoamino and R 2 is a member of the group consisting of lower alkylthio, phenoxy, phenylthio, substituted phenoxy, substituted phenylthio, lower alkylamino, lower dialkylamino, lower alkenylamino, lower dialkenylamino, lower alkynylamino, lower dialkynylamino, morpholino and N-piperidinoamino with the proviso that R, and R 2 cannot represent the same group. |
