FORM 2 THE PATENTS ACT 1970 [39 OF 1970] COMPLETE SPECIFICATION [See Section 10] "SELECTIVE HERBICIDES BASED ON -SUBSTITUTED ARYLSULPHONYLAMINOCARBONYL TRIAZOLINONES AND SAFENERS" BAYER AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT, a German company, of D-51368 Leverkusen, Germany The following specification particularly describes the nature of the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed :- 8-6-2007 The invention relates to novel selective herbicidal active compound combinations comprising substituted arylsulphonylaminocarbonyl-triazolinones and/or salts thereof and at least one compound which improves crop plant compatibility, which combinations can be used with particularly good results for the selective control of weeds in various crops of useful plants. Substituted arylsulphonylaminocarbonyl-triazolinones are already known as effective herbicides (cf. EP-A-341489, EP-A-422469, EP-A-425948, EP-A-431291, EP-A-507171, EP-A-534266, WO-A-96/11188, WO-A-96/27590, WO-A-96/27591, WO-A-97/03056). However, the activity of these compounds and/or their compatibility with crop plants are not under all conditions entirely satisfactory. Also known are combinations of substituted arylsulphonylaminocarbonyl-triazolinones and other herbicidally active compounds to obtain a synergistic effect (cf. WO-A-98/12923). Combinations of substituted arylsulphonylaminocarbonyl-triazolinones and safeners, too, are already known (cf. DE-A-19940859, DE-A-19940860, US-A-6162762). However, in these combination products, too, the use properties are not under all conditions entirely satisfactory. Furthermore, combinations of substituted arylsulphonylaminocarbonyl-triazolinones and further herbicidally active compounds, if appropriate with the additional use of safeners, also form part of the subject-matter of an earlier, but not prior published patent application Surprisingly, it has now been found that certain substituted arylsulphonylamino-carbonyl-triazolinones, when used together with the crop-plant-compatibility-improving compounds (safeners/antidotes) described below, prevent damage to the crop plants extremely well and can be used particularly advantageously as broad- Le A 35 662-Foreign Countries 2- spectrum combination preparations for the selective control of weeds in crops of useful plants, such as, for example, in cereals, maize and rice.
