In order to find novel bleaching herbicide lead compounds , a series of novel 3‐(trifluoromethyl)‐4‐(arylimino)‐5‐[3‐(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]‐1,2,4‐triazoles were designed and synthesized by the multi‐step reactions. Their structures were confirmed by IR, 1 H NMR, EI‐MS and elemental analyses. The preliminary bioassay indicated that compounds 4b , 4f , and 4h possessed 69.4%, 72.6%, and 88.5% inhibition against Brassica campestris L at the concentration of 100 mg/L. Generally speaking, this type of compounds exhibited weak herbicidal activity and might be not suitable as herbicide lead compound for further optimization.
