Moreover, the compounds of the present invention are very effective to the insects which develop the resistance against conventional insecticides.

In the case that the compounds of the present invention are used as the active ingredient of insecticidal compositions, the compounds may be used as they are, without adding any other components but in general, the compounds are mixed with a solid carrier, a liquid carrier, a gaseous carrier, a feed, etc. and, if necessary and desired, the mixture is further supplemented with a surfactant and other adjuvants used to prepare insecticidal preparations and prepared into forms such as oil sprays, emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowable concentrates, granules, dusts, aerosol, fumigants (fogging, etc.), poison bait, etc.

These formulations contain generally 0.01 to 95% by weight of the compounds of the present invention as the active ingredient.

Examples of the solid carrier used for making formulations include fine powders or granulates, etc. of clays (kaolin clay, diatomaceous earth, synthetic hydrated silicon dioxide, bentonite, Fubasami clay terra alba, etc.), talc, ceramics, other inorganic minerals (sericite, quartz, sulfur, activated carbon, calcium carbonate, hydrated silica, etc.), chemical fertilizers (ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, urea, ammonium chloride, etc.), etc. Examples of the liquid carrier include water, alcohols (methanol, ethanol, etc.), ketones (acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, etc.), aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, methylnaphthalene, etc.), aliphatic hydrocarbons hexane, cyclohexane, kerosene, gas oil, etc.), esters (ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, etc.), nitriles (acetonitrile, isobutyronitrile, etc.), ethers (diisopropyl ether, dioxane, etc.), acid amides (N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, etc.), halogenated hydrocarbons (dichloromethane, trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, etc.), dimethylsulfoxide, vegetable oils such as soybean oil, cotton seed oil, etc. Examples of the gaseous carrier, i.e., propellant, include freon gas, butane gas, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), dimethyl ether, carbon dioxide, etc.

As a base material for the poison baits, there are, for example, feed components such as crop powders, essential vegetable oil, sugars, crystalline cellulose etc.; antioxidants such as dibutylhydroxytoluene, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, etc.; preservatives such as dehydroacetic acid, etc.; feeding error preventing agents such as red peper powders, etc.; incentive flavor such as cheese flavor, onion flavor, etc.

The thus obtained formulations may be used as they are or after diluting with water, etc. Alternatively, the formulations may be used as admixture with other insecticides, nematocides, acaricides, bacteriocides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, synergistic agents, fertilizers, soil conditioners, animal feed, etc., or may also be used simultaneously with them, without mixing therewith.

Where the compounds of the present invention are used as insecticides for agricultural use, the dose is generally 0.1 g to 100 g per 10 ares; when emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowable concentrates, etc. are used after diluting them with water, the concentration is 0.1 ppm to 500 ppm. Granules, dusts, etc. may be used as they are, without diluting them. For purposes of household and public hygiene, emulsifiable concentrates, wettable Powders, flowable concentrates, etc. are diluted with water in a concentration of 0.1 ppm to 500 ppm; oils, aerosol, fumigants, poison baits, etc. may be used as they are.

These doses and concentrations may vary depending upon kind of formulations, timing for application, place applied, method for application, kinds of insect, condition of damages, etc. and may be increased or decreased, irrespective of the ranges set forth above.

Hereafter the present invention is described in more detail, by referring to synthesis examples, formulation examples and test examples but is not deemed to these examples.

SYNTHESIS EXAMPLE 1

Synthesis of Compound No. (5)

To a solution of 0.13 g (1 mmol) of 2-methyl-(4(5)-tert.-butylimidazole in 5 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide was added 40 mg (1 mmol) of an oily sodium hydride (60%) while cooling with ice, followed by stirring at the same temperature for 15 minutes. After the reaction was completed, to the reaction mixture was added dropwise 0.22 g (1 mmol) of 3-chloro-4,5-difluorobenzotrifluoride, followed by stirring at 80.degree.-90.degree. C. for 4 hours. After the reaction was completed, the reaction mixture was poured into water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. Further, then the residue was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained crude product was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give 0.17 g of 1-(2-chloro-6-fluoro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-methyl- 4-tert.-butylimidazole.
