Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the field of agricultural acaricides, and particularly relates to a trifluoroethyl thioether (sulfoxide) substituted benzene compound and use thereof.


BACKGROUND

In recent years, due to the long term use of existing acaricides, the pest mites have been induced to generate serious resistance, leading to extreme difficulty in prevention and control thereof. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously develop more efficient acaricides with unique mechanism of action.


Patent CN102341376A discloses a compound with certain acaricidal activity as shown in a general formula below.

In the prior art, the compound shown in the general formula I of the present invention and the acaricidal activity thereof haven't been reported yet.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a trifluoroethyl thioether (sulfoxide) substituted benzene compound which can control a variety of pest mites at a very small dose, and can be applied to prevent and control of pest mites in the fields of agriculture, forestry and health.


The technical solution of the present invention is as follows.


A trifluoroethyl thioether (sulfoxide) substituted benzene compound is shown in the general formula I:

where:


R1, R2 are independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, cyano, C1-C4 alkyl or C1-C4 haloalkyl; n is selected from 0 or 1;


R3, R4, R5 and R6 are independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, cyano, nitro, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 haloalkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy or C1-C4 haloalkoxy.


A preferred compound in the present invention is shown in the general formula I, where:


R1, R2 are independently selected from hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, cyano or methyl;


n is selected from 0 or 1;


R3, R4, R5 and R6 are independently selected from hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, cyano, nitro, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, trifluoromethyl, methoxy, ethoxy or trifluoromethoxy.


A further preferred compound in the present invention is shown in the general formula I, where:


R1 is selected from fluorine;


R2 is selected from methyl;


n is selected from 0 or 1;


R3, R4 and R6 are selected from hydrogen;


R5 is selected from hydrogen or cyano.


The present invention also includes an intermediate compound as shown in the general formula II, which can be used for preparing the compound of the general formula I:

where:


R1, R2 are independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, cyano, C1-C4 alkyl or C1-C4 haloalkyl; n is selected from 0 or 1;


R1, R4, R5 and R6 are independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, cyano, nitro, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 haloalkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy or C1-C4 haloalkoxy;


R7 is selected from chlorine or bromine.


A preferred compound in the present invention is shown in the general formula II, where:


R1, R2 are independently selected from hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, cyano or methyl; n is selected from 0 or 1;


R3, R4, R5 and R6 are independently selected from hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, cyano, nitro, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, trifluoromethyl, methoxy, ethoxy or trifluoromethoxy;


R7 is selected from chlorine or bromine.


A further preferred compound in the present invention is shown in the general formula I, where:


R1 is selected from fluorine;


R2 is selected from methyl;


n is selected from 0 or 1;


R3, R4 and R6 are selected from hydrogen;


R5 is selected from hydrogen or cyano;


R7 is selected from chlorine.


In the above definition of the compound of the general formula I, halogen refers to fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine; alkyl refers to linear or branched alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl or different butyl isomers; haloalkyl refers to linear or branched alkyl, on which hydrogen atoms can be partially or completely substituted by halogen, such as chloromethyl, dichloromethyl, trichloromethyl, fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl, 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethyl, etc.; alkoxy refers to linear or branched alkyl, which is bonded to the structure through an oxygen atom, such as methoxy, ethoxy, tert-butoxy, etc.; haloalkoxy refers to alkoxy on which hydrogen atoms can be partially or completely substituted by halogen, such as chloromethoxy, dichloromethoxy, trichloromethoxy, fluoromethoxy, difluoromethoxy, trifluoromethoxy, chlorofluoromethoxy, trifluoroethoxy, etc.


Some compounds of the general formula I of the present invention are shown in Table 1 and some compounds of the general formula II are shown in Table 2, but the present invention is by no means limited to these compounds.
