In the present study, we have designed and synthesized a series of 42 novel sulfonylurea compounds with ortho-alkoxy substitutions at the phenyl ring and evaluated their herbicidal activities. Some target compounds showed excellent herbicidal activity against monocotyledon weed species. When applied at 7.5 g ha-1, 6-11 exhibited more potent herbicidal activity against barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) and crab grass (Digitaria sanguinalis) than commercial acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS; EC 2.2.1.6) inhibitors triasulfuron, penoxsulam, and nicosulfuron at both pre-emergence and postemergence conditions. 6-11 was safe for peanut for postemergence application at this ultralow dosage, suggesting that it could be considered a potential herbicide candidate for peanut fields. Although 6-11 and triasulfuron share similar chemical structures and have close Ki values for plant AHAS, a significant difference has been observed between their LUMO maps from DFT calculations, which might be a possible factor that leads to their different behaviors toward monocotyledon weed species.
