Description

TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to a novel triazole compound and a pesticide.
BACKGROUND ART
A host of insecticides and acaricides have been heretofore used. It is not a few of them that hardly deserve to be called completely satisfactory pesticides because they are deficient in effect, because they find only limited use owing to the problem of growing tolerance on the part of pests to be controlled, because they do harm to or contaminate economic plants to be protected, or because they manifest unduly high toxicity to men, beasts, and fish inhibiting the districts in which they are used. Thus, the desirability of developing a chemical reagent that suffers only sparingly from such drawbacks as mentioned above and ensures safe use has been finding enthusiastic recognition.
As a substance which is associated with this invention, the compound of the following formula is disclosed in Bull, Chem. Soc. Jpn., 56, 545 (1983). ##STR2##
And the compound of the following formula is also disclosed in Journal of Pharmacy, 94 (1), 55 (1974). ##STR3##
The relevant monograph of this publication, however, has no mention of the compound possesing an insecticidal or acaricidal effect.

To a solution of 2.0 g of N-methyl-N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-2-chloro-6-fluorobonzohydrazonoyl chloride in 20 ml of o-dichlorobenzene at room temperature, were added 1.1 g of 4-chloro-.alpha.,.alpha.-dimethylbenzyl cyanide and 0.85 g of anhydrous aluminum chloride, and the reaction mixture was heated at 120.degree. C. or 30 minutes. After cooling, the rection mixture was poured into iced water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography to afford 1.5 g of 5-(4-chloro .alpha.,.alpha.-dimethylbenzyl)-3-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole.

Example 17 (Product No. 298) ##STR29##
To a solution of 0.7 g of N-methyl-N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-(.alpha., .alpha.-dimethyl-4-chlorophenylacetohydrazonoyl chloride in 7 ml of o-dichlorobenzene at room temperature, were added 0.33 g of 2-chloro-6-fluorobenzonitrile and 0.28 g of anhydrous aluminium chloride, and the reaction mixture was heated at 120.degree. C. for 30 minutes. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into iced water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography to afford 0.6 g of 5-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-3-(4-chloro-.alpha.,.alpha.-dimethylbenzyl)-1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole. m.p.97.degree.-100.degree.

In recent years, numerous species of harmful insects such as diamondback moth, planthopper, and leafhopper have come to build tolerance to organophosphate reagents, carbamate reagents, and acaricides. The inability of these reagents to manifest necessary effects has been posing a serious problem. A need has arisen for chemical reagents which are capable of effectively destroying harmful insects and mites of the species which have built tolerance. The compounds according to this invention are chemical reagents which manifest satisfactory insecticidal and acaricidal effects not only to insects and mites of the aesthetic species but also to the insects of the species tolerating carbamate reagents and pyrothroid reagents and the mites of the species tolerating acaricides.
Further, the compounds according to this invention produce only sparlngly low toxicity, do only insignificant harm to fish and hybrid animals, and enjoy pronnounced safety.
The compounds according to this invention ran also be used as antifueling agents for preventing aquatic organisms from attaching to ship bottoms and fish nets.
�Insocticidal and acaricidal agents!
The compounds according to this invention which are produced as described above can be used for actual application in their pure form, namely without addition of other components. For application in agriculture, they may be prepared in various forms allowed for standard agricultural chemicals such as, for example, wettable powders, granules, dusts, emulsifiable concentrates, solutions, suspensions, and flowable powders.
As additives and carriers for solid preparations, plant powders such as soybean grains and flour, finely powdered mineral materials such as diatomaceous earth, lime, gypsum, talc, bentonite, pyrophyllite, and clay, and organic and inorganic compounds such as sodium benzoate, urea, and Glauber's salt. For liquid preparations, oil fractions such as kerosine, xylene, and solvent naphtha, cyclohexane, cyclohexa-none, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, alcohols, acetone, trichloroethylene, methylisobutyl ketone, mineral oils. vegetable oil, and water are used as solvents. These preparations allow addition thereto of a surfactant when necessary for the purpose of assuming a homogeneous and stable form. Properly, these preparations contain the compound as an active component at a concentration in the range of 5 to 70%. The wettable powder, emulsion, and flowable agent are diluted with water to prescribed concentrations and are used in the form of a suspension or emulsion and the dust and granules are sprayed in their unmodified forms.
