A new 2,3-dihydro-2,3,4,6,7-pentamethylbenzofuran-5-yl substituents in 5-benzofuryl-2-[1-(alkoxyimine) alkyl]-3-hydroxycyclohex-2-en-1-ones were found to have herbicidal activity against rice plant (Oryza sativa L.) and barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) under submerged conditions. The structure activity. relationships (SARs) on the herbicidal activity of $R_1\;and\;R_2$ on the azomethine bond of 2,3-dihydro-2,3,4,6,7-pentamethylbenzofuran-5-yl subsituents were analysized. The conditions of the selective herbicide activity between rice plant (seed) and barnyard grass from the basis on the analysized SARs are assumed that the $R_2$ group of ethyl substituent ($R_1$ ) should have optimal asymmetry parameter, $(L/B_1)_{opt.}=3.96{\AA}$. And also, the $R_2$ groups consist of $C_1{\sim}C_3$ and unsaturated group such as 3-chloro-2-propenyl group was contribution to the herbicide activity.

The herbicidal activities ($pI_{50}$) with alkoxy (RO-) groups on the azomethine nitrogen atom in 5-(2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzothiophene-7-yl)-2-(1-(alkoxyimino)butyl)-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one derivatives against various weeds were measured in the flooded and in the paddy conditions. Particularly, i-propoxy subsutuent, 5 of them showed excellent herbicidal activity at a rate of 4kg/ha with pre-emergence against barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) with good selectivity on rice plant (Oryza sativa). The results of the structure-activity relationships (SAR) analyses are shown that the alkyl subsituents with higher hydrophobicity (logp>0) and electron donating (${\sigma}^*<0$) group as a new substrate rather than alkoxy substituents seems to be contribute to the herbicidal activity with pre-emergence.

The solubilization constant (K_s) was determined by the UV-Vis method to investigate the interaction between organic matter (solubilized substance) and surfactant in solubilization. Solubilization constants and thermodynamic functions, according to the hydrophobic interaction between organic mater (4-alkylanilines with different alkyl substituent length) and cationic surfactants (DTAB, TTAB, and CTAB, having different hydrophobic lengths), were measured and calculated at various temperatures and compared with each other. As a result, the hydrophobic interactions between organic matters and cationic micelles increased with increasing the chain length of solute's substituent as well as surfactant's hydrophobe. However, the hydrophobic effect by the alkyl substituent of organic matter was greater than the hydrophobic effect by the surfactant. In addition, the results of the calculated thermodynamic functions showed that 4-alkylaniline was solubilized at the deep place in the micelle and its solubilization was greatly dependent on both the hydrophobic effects of organic matter and surfactant. At the calculated iso-structural temperature, the difference between the maximum and minimum values was less than 1K within the experimental conditions.
