Cyclic keto enol derivatives (I) are new. Cyclic keto enol derivatives of formula (I) are new. In (I): J = optionally substituted (OS) (hetero)cycloalkyl X, Y = H, alkyl, halo, haloalkyl, alkoxy or haloalkoxy m = 1-3 CKE = a cyclic keto enol group of formula (1)-(10). A = e.g. H alkyl, alkenyl or alkoxyalkyl B = e.g. H, alkyl or alkoxyalkyl or D = H or OS alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl Q 1> = e.g. H, alkyl or alkoxyalkyl Q 2>, Q 4>, Q 5>, Q 6> = H or alkyl Q 3> = e.g. H, alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, cycloalkyl or phenyl G = e.g. H, COR 1> or E E = a metal ion or ammonium R 1> = e.g. alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl or alkylthioalkyl. Provided that at least 1 of J, X or Y = is in the 2-position of the phenyl moiety and is not H. Full definitions are given in the Definitions field. Independent claims are also included for: (1) a process for preparing (I) (2) composition comprising at least one compound (I) and at least one safener comprising a compound for formula (IIa-e), or one of 57 specific compounds listed in the specification and (3) starting materials and intermediates of formulae (II), (III), (IV), (VI), (VIII), (IX), (XII), (XIII), (XIV), (XXVIII), (XXVII), (XXXII), (XXXIV), (XXXVI), (XI), (XXXVII), (XXXVIII), (XLI), (XLII) and (LXVI).
