Novel herbicides and plant growth regulants of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, halogenoalkyl, halogenoalkenyl, halogenoalkinyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkoxy, cycloalkylalkyl or cycloalkyl, or represents in each case optionally substituted aralkyl or aryl,R.sup.2 represents a radical ##STR2## or represents a radical --S(O).sub.n --R.sup.7, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 independently of one another each represent hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, halogenoalkyl, halogenoalkenyl, halogenoalkinyl, cyanoalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylaminoalkyl, alkoxycarbonylalkyl or alkoxycarbonylalkenyl, or represent in each case optionally substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, cycloalkenyl or cycloalkenylalkyl, or represent optionally substituted heterocyclylalkyl, or represent in each case optionally substituted aralkyl, aroyl, or aryl, or represent alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkinyloxy, aralkyloxy or aryloxy, or, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded, represent an optionally substituted heterocyclic radical, p0 X represents oxygen or sulphur and p0 Y represents oxygen or sulphur,whereinR.sup.5 and R.sup.6 independently of one another each represent alkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl, halogenoalkyl, halogenoalkenyl, halogenoalkinyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkoxy, cycloalkyl or cycloalkylalkyl, or represent in each case optionally substituted aryl, aralkyl or heteroaryl, or, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded, represent an optionally substituted heterocyclic radical,R.sup.7 represents alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or cycloalkylalkyl, or represents in each case optionally substituted aralkyl or aryl andn represents the number 0, 1 or 2,but wherein R.sup.2 only represents a radical --S(O).sub.n --R.sup.7 if R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 do not simultaneously represent methyl.Intermediates therefor where NR.sup.3 R.sup.4 is replaced by Cl are also new.
