4,5-Dihydro-1H-pyrazole compounds are sometimes informally referred to as 2-pyrazoline or .DELTA.2-pyrazoline compounds. Chemical Abstracts nomenclature has generally been used to name the compounds of this invention.
The term "compatible substituents" is used herein to define combinations of substituents that when present together in the designated positions do not interfere with each other so as to make the subject compound unmakable or unstable.
The compounds of Formula I exist in two enantiomeric isomer forms because the 4-position ring carbon atom is asymmetrically substituted. The present invention relates to each of the enantiomeric isomers and to all mixtures of these isomers. It is anticipated that the enantiomeric isomers will both have utility as insecticides but that one of the enantiomeric isomers will be generally more efficacious than the other.
Insecticidal dihydropyrazole compounds of the invention wherein Y represents a substituted 2-pyridinyl, 3-pyridinyl, 2-pyrimidinyl, 5-pyrimidinyl, 2-pyrazinyl, or 3-pyridazinyl moiety are often preferred. Such compounds wherein Y represents a 5-substituted-2-pyridinyl, 5-substituted-2-pyrimidinyl, 6-substituted-3-pyridazinyl, or 5-substituted-2-pyrazinyl moiety are generally more preferred in some circumstances and such compounds wherein Y represents a 6-substituted-3-pyridinyl or 2-substituted-5-pyrimidinyl moiety are generally more preferred in other circumstances.

The insecticidal compounds of the present invention can be prepared by the reaction of an appropriate 3,4-disubstituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole compound of Formula I with an appropriate isocyanate or isothiocyanate compound of Formula II as illustrated below. ##STR3## In Formulas I and II, W, X, Y, and Z are defined as hereinbefore for the insecticidal compounds of the invention. The reaction is generally effected by combining the 3,4-disubstituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole and the isocyanate or isothiocyanate in the presence of an inert organic solvent, such as methylene chloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, toluene, acetonitrile, and the like, at a temperature of about 0.degree. C. to about 60.degree. C. and, typically, with agitation. The reaction takes place fairly rapidly, usually in about 0.1 to 20 hours. The 3,4,N-trisubstituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide and thiocarboxamide products are solids and can be recovered by conventional means, such as by filtration, centrifugation, or removal of the volatiles by evaporation. The initially recovered products can be further purified by conventional means, such as by recrystallization.
The insecticidal compounds of the invention wherein T represents R", C(W)R, C"(W)WR", SAr, SNR"R"', SM, or CH.sub.2 OR" can be prepared from the corresponding insecticidal compound wherein T represents H by treatment with a base, such as sodium hydride or potassium carbonate, and an appropriate alkylating, acylating, or sulfenylating agent, such as acetyl chloride, trifluoroacetic anhydride, ethyl chloroformate, (N-methyl-N-ethoxycarbonyl)aminosulfenyl chloride, 4-nitrophenylsulfenyl chloride, or butyloxymethyl chloride in a solvent, such as N,N-dimethylformamide or acetonitrile. The mixture is allowed to react at about ambient or an elevated temperature and the product is recovered by conventional means.
The appropriate 3,4-disubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole compounds of Formula I can be prepared by treatment of an appropriately substituted propenone compound of Formula III with hydrazine. ##STR4## The reaction is typically effected by adding hydrazine, usually as the hydrate, to a solution of the propenone in a solvent, such as N,N-dimethylformamide or trifluoroacetic acid, at temperatures of about -20.degree. C. to about 60.degree. C. with agitation. After a reaction period of about 1 to about 8 hours the mixture is poured onto a mixture of ice and water with vigorous stirring. In those cases where the desired product precipitates as a solid, it can be recovered by filtration. In those cases where the desired product forms an oil, it can be recovered by extraction into an immiscible organic solvent, such as ether, and, if desired, further isolated by evaporation of the solvent. Compounds of Formula I are generally unstable and degrade on attempted recrystallization or distillation. Accordingly, the crude products obtained are generally not further purified before being employed as intermediates. The 3,4-disubstituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole compounds of Formula I wherein X and Y are as defined above are novel compounds and are a further aspect of the invention.
The propenone compounds of Formula III can be prepared by the reaction of bisdimethylaminomethane and acetic anhydride with the appropriately substituted ethanone compound of Formula IV. ##STR5## The reaction is generally carried out by adding excess acetic anhydride to a mixture of the ethanone compound of Formula IV in excess bisdimethylaminomethane at about 0.degree. C. with agitation. The desired propenone compound of Formula III can be recovered by conventional means, such as by adding water and ether, separating the phases, and evaporating the volatile materials from the ethereal phase. The propenone compounds of Formula III wherein X and Y are defined as above are novel compounds and are a further aspect of the invention.
Certain of the ethanone compounds of Formula IV can be obtained by the reaction of an acetyl compound of Formula V with a fluoropyridine, fluoroquinoline, fluoropyrimidine, fluoropyridazine, or fluoropyrazine compound of Formula VI. Chloroheterocycles can often be used as well. ##STR6## This method is especially valuable for the preparation of compounds of Formula IV wherein Y is an optionally substituted 2- or 4-pyridinyl, 2- or 4-pyrimidinyl, 2-pyrazinyl, 3- or 4-pyridazinyl, or 2-quinolinyl moiety. The reaction can be carried out by adding a solution of the acetyl compound V to a slurry of sodium hydride in an inert solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or toluene, with agitation. The resultant mixture is maintained at about 0.degree. C. to 120.degree. C., the fluoroheterocycle or chloroheterocycle is added, and the mixture is allowed to react. The mixture is then cooled, quenched with an acid, and the desired product recovered by conventional means.
Other of the ethanone compounds of Formula IV can be obtained by the reaction of a carboxylic acid ester compound of Formula VII wherein X is defined as above with a methylpyridine, methylquinoline, methylpyridazine, methylpyrazine, or methylpyrimidine compound of Formula VIII wherein Y is as defined above. ##STR7## The reaction can be carried out by allowing the compound of Formula VIII to react with a slurry of sodium or potassium hydride in an inert solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, adding the carboxylic acid ester of Formula VII, and allowing the mixture to react. The resultant reaction mixture is quenched with an acid, such as hydrochloric acid, or an acidic salt, such as ammonium chloride, and the desired product is recovered by conventional means.
Still other compounds of Formula IV can be prepared by hydration of a corresponding substituted acetylene compound of Formula IX wherein X and Y are as defined above. ##STR8## This method is especially valuable for preparing compounds of Formula IV wherein Y is an optionally substituted 3-pyridinyl, 3-quinolinyl, or 5-pyrimidinyl moiety. The reaction is generally carried out by heating at reflux for a few hours an aqueous mixture containing the compound of Formula IX, acetone, sulfuric acid, and mercuric sulfate and then recovering the ethanone compound by conventional means.
The acetylene compounds of Formula IX can be obtained by the reaction of a halopyridine, haloquinoline, halopyrimidine, halopyrazine, or halopyridazine compound of Formula X wherein Y is as defined above with an acetylene compound of Formula XI wherein X is as defined above. ##STR9## Bromine is usually the preferred halogen (hal) moiety. The reaction can be carried out by heating for about an hour a mixture of the compounds of Formula X and XI in the presence of catalytic amounts of cuprous iodide and the bistriphenylphosphine complex of palladium dichloride in a solvent composed typically of a mixture of triethylamine and N,N-dimethylformamide. The desired product can be recovered by conventional means.
The compounds of Formulas IV, V, VII, and VIII are well known in the art or can be prepared by procedures well known in the art. For example, 5-trifluoromethyl-2-chloropyrazine can be made from 5-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylic acid by successive treatments with a mixture of phosphorus pentachloride and phenylphosphonic dichloride and a mixture of hydrogen fluoride and antimony trichloride using conditions that are well known for similar conversions of pyridinecarboxylic acids.
The substituted phenyl isocyanates and most of the heterocyclic isocyanates of Formula II are well known in the art and are readily available or can be prepared by known methods. Substituted pyridinyl, quinolinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyridazinyl, and pyrazinyl isocyanates can be prepared from the corresponding carboxylic acids by conversion to the corresponding acyl azides and subsequent thermal rearrangement as is taught in the art. These isocyanates can, alternatively, be prepared from the corresponding optionally substituted aminopyridine, aminoquinoline, aminopyrimidine, aminopyridazine, or aminopyrazine compound by conversion to the corresponding optionally substituted N-pyridinyl-, N-quinolinyl-, N-pyrimidinyl-, N-pyridazinyl-, or N-pyrazinylcarbamate compound. This is typically accomplished by allowing the aminoheterocycle to react with phenyl chloroformate in the presence of an acid acceptor. The phenyl N-heterocyclylcarbamates readily dissociate into the desired heterocyclyl isocyanates on thermolysis as is taught in the art. It is often convenient to prepare these isocyanates in situ in the carbamoylation reaction because some of them lack storage stability. When this alternative procedure is followed, the appropriate phenyl N-heterocyclylearbamate compound is substituted for the isocyanate compound in the procedure described hereinabove and, typically, an amine catalyst, such as 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene, is added.
The insecticidal compounds of the present invention can be used directly to kill insects, but it is generally preferable to first prepare an insecticidal composition containing one or more of the compounds in combination with an agriculturally acceptable adjuvant or carrier. Suitable adjuvants or carriers should not be phytotoxic to valuable crops, particularly at the concentrations employed in applying the compositions for insect control in the presence of crops, and should not react chemically with the dihydropyrazole compound active ingredients or other composition ingredients. Such mixtures can be designed for direct application or can be concentrates or formulations which are normally diluted with additional carriers and adjuvants before application. They can be solids, such as, for example, dusts, granules, water dispersible granules, or wettable powders, or liquids, such as, for example, emulsifiable concentrates, solutions, emulsions or suspensions.
Suitable agricultural adjuvants and carriers that are useful in preparing the insecticidal mixtures of the invention are well known to those skilled in the art.
Liquid carriers that can be employed include water, toluene, xylene, petroleum naphtha, crop oil, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, ethyl acetate, amyl acetate, butyl acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether and diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, isopropyl alcohol, amyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerine, and the like. Water is generally the carrier of choice for the dilution of concentrates.
Suitable solid carriers include talc, pyrophyllite clay, silica, attapulgus clay, kieselguhr, chalk, diatomaceous earth, lime, calcium carbonate, bentonite clay, Fuller's earth, cotton seed hulls, wheat flour, soybean flour, pumice, wood flour, walnut shell flour, lignin, and the like.
It is frequently desirable to incorporate one or more surface-active agents into the compositions of the present invention. Such surface-active agents are advantageously employed in both solid and liquid compositions, especially those designed to be diluted with carrier before application. The surface-active agents can be anionic, cationic, or nonionic in character and can be employed as emulsifying agents, wetting agents, suspending agents, or for other purposes. Typical surface active agents include salts of alkyl sulfates, such as diethanolammonium lauryl sulfate; alkylarylsulfonate salts, such as calcium dodecyl-benzenesulfonate; alkylphenol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as nonylphenol-C.sub.18 ethoxylate; alcohol-alkylene oxide addition products, such as tridecyl alcohol-C.sub.16 ethoxylate; soaps, such as sodium stearate; alkylnaphthalenesulfonate salts, such as sodium dibutyl-naphthalenesulfonate; dialkyl esters of sulfosuccinate salts, such as sodium di(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate; sorbitol esters, such as sorbitol oleate; quaternary amines, such as lauryl trimethylammonium chloride; polyethylene glycol esters of fatty acids, such as polyethylene glycol stearate; block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide; and salts of mono and dialkyl phosphate esters.
Other adjuvants commonly utilized in agricultural compositions include antifoam agents, compatibilizing agents, sequestering agents, neutralizing agents and buffers, corrosion inhibitors, dyes, odorant, penetration aids, spreading agents, sticking agents, dispersing agents, thickening agents, freeze point depressants, antimicrobial agents, and the like. The compositions can also contain other compatible components, for example, other insecticides or fungicides, herbicides, and the like and can be formulated with solid, particulate fertilizer carriers such as ammonium nitrate, urea and the like or with liquid fertilizers.
The concentration of the active ingredients in the insecticidal compositions of this invention is generally from about 0.001 to about 98 percent by weight. Concentrations from about 0.01 to about 90 percent by weight are often employed. In compositions designed to be employed as concentrates, the active ingredient is generally present in a concentration from about 5 to about 98 weight percent, preferably about 10 to about 90 weight percent. Such compositions are typically diluted with an inert carrier, such as water, before application. The diluted compositions usually applied to insects or their locus generally contain about 0.001 to about 5 weight percent active ingredient and preferably contain about 0.01 to about 1.0 percent. Granular formulations containing about 1 to about 25 percent active ingredient are often employed and applied without further dilution.
The present compositions can be applied by the use of conventional ground or aerial dusters and sprayers, and by other conventional means known to those skilled in the art.
The insecticidal 3,4,N-triaryl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide compounds of the present invention are useful for the kill and control of a wide variety of insects and can be employed to protect crops and livestock as well as buildings and the public health. Insects that live on foliage, in the soil, and in other environments can be controlled. Insects of the orders Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Orthoptera, Isoptera, Hymenoptera, and Diptera are generally controlled. Lepidopterous insects of the genera Heliothis and Spodoptera, orthopterous insects of the genus Blattella, isopterous insects of the families Kalotermitidae, Hodotermitidae, and Rhinotermitidae, and hymenopterous insects of the family Formicidae are usually especially well controlled. Such insects include tobacco budworms, beet armyworms, German cockroaches, subterranean termites, and Formosan termites. The control of insects infesting crops, such as corn, cotton, rice, wheat, soybeans, and vegetables, is a preferred use of these compounds. The control of insects infesting homes and commercial buildings is another preferred use of the compounds. Control of insects is generally achieved when at least about 0.01 kg/Ha is applied to foliage or other surfaces or when at least about 0.1 kg/Ha is applied to soil.
The method of killing or controlling insects by the application of compounds of Formula I is generally predicated on causing a compound of Formula I wherein T represents H to be present within the insects. This can be accomplished by applying to the insects or their locus compounds of Formula I wherein T represents H directly or by applying a compound of Formula I wherein T represents R", C(W)R, C"(W)WR", SAr, SNR"R"', SM, or CH.sub.2 OR". It is also possible to cause an insecticidal amount of such a compound to be present within insects by applying other derivative compounds, wherein T represents other than H, which compounds are converted within the insects to a compound of Formula I wherein T represents H. The required conversions take place by natural chemical processes, such as hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction, and the like, that are either enzymatic or non-enzymatic in nature.

EXAMPLE 1
Preparation of 2-(5-(Trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethanone
4'-Chloroacetophenone (16 milliliters (mL), 19 grams (g), 120 millimoles (mmol)) was added rapidly dropwise to a stirring 21.degree. C. slurry of sodium hydride (17.1 g, 428 mmol; freed of mineral oil by a hexane wash) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) (280 mL). After 1 hour (hr), the mixture was heated at reflux for 1 hr, then cooled to 21.degree. C. 2-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine was added rapidly dropwise to the stirring slurry causing a rapid color change to dark red. The solution was heated at reflux for 17 hr, at which time gas chromatography (GC) analysis showed complete conversion. The mixture was cooled to 0.degree. C. and quenched by careful sequential addition of acetic acid (12 mL, 13 g, 210 mmol), water (125 mL), acetic acid (12 mL, 13 g, 210 mmol), and water (125 mL). The layers were treated separately due to the propensity of this material to form serious emulsions. The aqueous layer was extracted with ether (2.times.100 mL). The combined organic layer was extracted with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, decolorized with activated charcoal, filtered, and evaporated to a wet brown solid residue. 1H NMR showed a 59:41 molar ratio of ketone to enol ether. The residue was triturated with hexane and applied to a porous plate to obtain a pale yellow solid. The hexane solvent was evaporated and the residue combined with the solid. The mixture was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with methylene chloride, to obtain 12.6 g (50 percent of theory) of the title compound as a yellow solid melting at 114.degree.-116.degree. C. Attempts to recrystallize the compound generally resulted in some decomposition.

Potassium hydride (6.86 g of 35 percent in mineral oil, 60 mmol, washed 3 times with hexane to remove the mineral oil) and 100 mg of 18-crown-6 ether catalyst were placed in a flask under argon and 80 mL of tetrahydrofuran (THF) was added. 3-Chloro-6-methylpyridazine (2.57 g, 22 mmol) as a solution in 7 mL of THF was added dropwise with stirring at ambient temperature over a 50 min period. The resulting slurry was cooled to -40.degree. C. and a solution of methyl 4-chlorobenzoate (3-75 g, 22 mmol) in 5 mL of THF was added with stirring and cooling over a 5 min period. The mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and was stirred for 8 hr at which time all of the 3-chloro-6-methylpyridazine had been consumed as determined by TLC. The mixture was poured into 200 mL of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution and the phases were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted 3 times with 100 mL portions of methylene chloride and all of the organic phases were combined and filtered through a plug (5 cm.times.15 cm) of silica gel. The silica gel was extracted with a 10:90 mixture of ether and methylene chloride until the eluent was nearly colorless and the eluent was combined with the filtrate and concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with hexane and the solids were recovered by filtration and dried to obtain the title compound in 41 percent yield as a gold colored solid. An analytical sample melting at 152.5.degree.-153.5.degree. C. was obtained by recrystallization from hexane/acetone.

Preparation of 4-(5-Chloro-2-pyridinyl)-4,5-dihydro-N-ethoxycarbonyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-N-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide (Compound HH.sub.2).
Sodium hydride (240 mg, 6.00 mmol as a 60 percent slurry in mineral oil) was extracted 3 times with 2 mL portions of dry hexane under an inert atmosphere and then 15 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added and the mixture cooled by stirring in an ice bath. 4-(5-Chloro-2-pyridinyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-N-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide (958 mg, 2.00 mmol) was then added in one portion and the mixture allowed to react for 30 min. Ethyl chloro-formate (0.573 mL, 6.00 mmol) was then added with cooling and stirring and the mixture allowed to react at 0.degree.-10.degree. C. for 30 min. The resulting mixture was partitioned between saturated aqueous ammonium chloride and ether. The ethereal phase was dried over magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with 20 mL of ether, refrigerated for about 1 hr, and then recovered by filtration. It was then recrystallized from a mixture of hexane and acetone to obtain 660 mg of the title compound as white crystals melting at 159.5.degree.-161.degree. C. (60 percent yield)

EXAMPLE 11
Effect on Tobacco Budworm and Beet Armyworm by Leaf Ingestion and/or Contact
Stock solutions of the compounds to be tested having a known concentration were prepared by dissolving weighed amounts in a 90:10 mixture of high-purity acetone and ethanol and these solutions were diluted with distilled water (containing 0.05 percent by weight Tween 20.TM. surfactant) to obtain the spray solutions of known concentration employed. Greenhouse-grown cotton leaves of uniform age were cut into 2.5 cm diameter discs and one disc was placed in the bottom of each of a number of 30 mL plastic cups. The cups were then sprayed by means of a track sprayer applying 0.055 mL of spray solution per cup. The leaf discs were allowed to dry and then a single second-instar H. virescens (tobacco budworm) or S. exigua (beet armyworm) larva was added to each cup and each cup was capped with a perforated plastic lid. Ten cups were prepared for each insect species and each application rate and five applications rates were usually run. Treated cups were stored for 5 days at 25.degree.

EXAMPLE 12
Effect on Tobacco Budworm and Beet Armyworm by Contact
Stock solutions of the compounds to be tested having a known concentration were prepared by dissolving weighed amounts in a 90:10 mixture of high-purity acetone and ethanol and these solutions were diluted with distilled water (containing 0.05 percent by weight Tween 20.TM. surfactant) to obtain the spray solutions of known concentration employed. Teflon.TM. discs 5 cm in diameter were placed in plastic Petri dishes of slightly larger diameter and these dishes were sprayed by means of a track sprayer applying 0.104 mL of spray solution per cup. The Teflon.TM. discs were allowed to dry, a single second-instar H. virescens (tobacco budworm) or S. exigua (beet armyworm) larva was placed on each Teflon.TM. disc, and each disc was capped with a plastic lid. Ten Teflon.TM. discs were prepared for each application rate and five application rates were usually run. Treated discs were stored for 24 hours at 250.degree. C. and then the Teflon.TM. disc was removed and replaced with an untreated cotton leaf disc. After 5 more days of storage at 25.degree. C. the dishes were graded for mortality. Untreated controls and positive controls (cypermethrin) were run simultaneously. The amount of test chemical required to kill half of the larvae (LD.sub.50) was calculated. Typical results are given in the preceding table.
EXAMPLE 13
Effect on Cockroaches
Two hundred ppm stock solutions of the compounds to be tested were prepared by dissolving 2.4 milligrams (mg) of each test compound in 12 mL of acetone; four lower concentration solutions were prepared by serial dilution using 3 mL of solution. A 0.5 mL portion of each test solution was pipetted onto 0.2 g of yellow corn meal placed in a small test tube cap (Fisher 02-706-33) and the mixture was placed in a fume hood overnight to allow the solvent to evaporate. This resulted in diets containing 500, 125, 31.2, 7.8, and 2.0 ppm of the test compounds to be used to determine activity by ingestion. Each cap was then placed in a 9 cm (centimeter) diameter Petri plate along with a 2 dram vial containing a cotton wick and water. A 0.5 mL portion of each test solution was also pipetted into a 20 mL borosilicate glass scintillation vial. The vials were placed on a roller mixer and the acetone was allowed to evaporate while the vials rolled. This resulted in vial walls containing 2.5, 0.63, 0.16, 0.04, and 0.01 micrograms/cm.sup.2 to be used to determine activity by contact. Five late third or early fourth instar Blattella germanica nymphs weighing 0.01-0.04 g were placed in each vial and each Petri plate and covers were applied loosely to allow entry of air. Each Petri plate and vial was held at 270.degree. C., the Petri plates for 21 days and the vials for 7 days. The percent of mortality was read periodically and at the end of the test. Some of the compounds that were active in this test are listed in the following table.

EXAMPLE 14
Effect on Termites
Acetone stock solutions of test compounds of known concentration were prepared and serially diluted to obtain test solutions having a range of known concentrations. A 0.25 mL aliquot of each test solution was pipetted onto 9 cm filter paper circles that were placed in individual 10 cm Petri dishes. The acetone was allowed to evaporate and 0.75 mL of distilled water was added to each Petri dish to moisten the filter papers. Nine worker and one soldier Coptotermes formosans or Reticulitermes flavipes termites were placed in each Petri dish and each dish was held in the dark at 25.degree. C. and 90 percent relative humidity for 7 days. Each test was replicated 5 times and untreated controls were run. The test was graded as the percentage of dead termites after 24 hours and each day up to 7 days; dead termites were removed at each grading. The test measures activity by a combination of contact and ingestion modes. Compound G at 10 ppm controlled 100 percent of Coptotermes formosanus in 3 days and 100 percent of the Reticulitermes flavipes in 2 days.
