Triazole derivatives and insecticides

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a novel triazole derivative useful as an insecticide as well as an insecticide containing the same as an active ingredient.
2. Description of the Related Art
It is known that triazole derivatives such as 3-chlorophenyl -5-chloropyridyl-1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole and the like are effective for the control of mites and sap-sucking insects (Research Disclosure RD278004). In this literature, however, there is no description that what concentration of the above derivative is effective to what kind of injurious insect and also the origin for these derivative is unclear. Further, the compounds concretely described in the above literature are poor in the systemic translocation and the systemic penetrance and are hardly said to be satisfactory as an insecticide.
As an injurious insect harming farm and garden products, there are aphides such as cotton aphid, green peach aphid, foxglove aphid and the like. These aphides eat growing points of plants to badly damage farm and garden products and also they infect virus. Therefore, it is strongly demanded to control these aphides. Lately, injurious insects developing resistance to existing insecticide and acaricide appear and the control thereof becomes more serious. In this connection, chemicals for controlling hemiptera insects typified by aphides are desirable to have systemic translocation and systemic penetrance as a functional performance.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The inventors have synthesized various triazole derivatives in order to develop an insecticide useful for the control of the above injurious insects and made studies with respect to their physiological activities. As a result, the inventors have found that novel compounds having a general formula [I] as mentioned later have excellent systemic translocation and systemic penetrance and develop excellent insecticidal activity to various injurious insects and acarids as compared with the compounds concretely described in the aforementioned literature, and the invention has been accomplished.
According to the invention, there is the provision of a triazole derivative having the following general formula [I]: ##STR2## (wherein R.sup.1 is a lower alkyl group, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are same or different halogen atoms and X is a chlorine atom located at 2- or 6-position).

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
In the triazole derivatives according to the invention, the systemic translocation activity and the systemic penetrance activity are particularly improved because both R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 as a substituent on benzene ring bonded to 3-position of triazole ring are halogen atoms. Furthermore, the triazole derivatives having disubstituents on benzene ring bonded to 3-position of triazole ring and an alkyl substituent on 1-position of triazole ring are possible to be synthesized by novel production methods.
In the general formula [I], the lower alkyl group as R.sup.1 includes methyl group, ethyl group, propyl group, isopropyl group, butyl group, isobutyl group, t-butyl group, s-butyl group and the like, while the halogen atom as R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine. Among the compounds of the general formula [I], a compound in which R.sup.1 is methyl or ethyl group and X is a chlorine atom located at 2- or 6-position is preferable.
The compounds of the general formula [I] according to the invention are shown in Table 1. And also, the compound No. is referred in subsequent description.
