of the Disclosure New dicarboximides of the formula

Description

105;~Z4~

The present invention relates to dicarboxinides, to processes for their preparation, and to their use for the control of insects.
The dicarboximides correspond to the formula O

~ N-R (I) wherein o R represents a phenyl mono- to trisubstituted, identically or differently, by fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, trifluoromethyl, nitro, cyano, Cl-C4-alkyl, methoxy or methylthio, or monosubstituted by a methylenedioxy group, and Zl and Z2 each represent hydrogen, or together with the carbon atoms to which they are bound they -represent a carbon-carbon bond.
As substltuents of the phenyl group, the Cl~C4-alkyl groups can be branched-chain or straight-chain, and are preferably the methyl or ethyl group.
Compounds of formula I preferred by virtue of their action are those wherein R represents a phenyl mono- to trisubstituted9 identically or differently, by fluorine, chlorine, ~ .

' ~ ~ ' ' ' ' ', '' .: ' . ~' .

1~53Z9t4 bromine, iodine, trifluoromethyl, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, methylthio, nitro, or cyano, or monosubstituted by a methylenedioxy group, and Zl and Z2 each represent hydrogen, or together with the carbon atoms to which they are bound they represent a carbon-carbon bond.
Paritcularly preferred compounds of formula I are those wherein R represents a phenyl mono- to trisubstituted, identically or differently, by fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, trifluoromethyl, ethyl, methyl, methylthio, nitro or cyano, or monosubstituted by a methylenedioxy group, and Zl and Z2 together with the carbon atoms to which they are bound re-present a carbon-carbon bond.
The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of compounds of the formula ~ / - R

wherein R represents a phenyl mono- to trisubstituted, identically or different-ly, by fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, trifluoromethyl, nitro, cyano, Cl-C4-alkyl, thoxy or methylthio, or mono substituted by a methylene dioxy group, and Zl and Z2 each represent hydrogen, or together with the carbon atoms to which they are bound they ~represent a carbon-carbon bond5 in which process a compound of the formula <~X\
o ' ~' is reacted _ 3 - ~:

~.. . :...

~)S;~Z44 with a compound of the formula wherein R, Zl and Z2 have the meanings given for formula I.
The reaction is performed under normal pressur~, at a temperature of 60 - 150C, preferably 80 - 120C, and in a high-boiling solvent, such as, e.g. glacial acetic acid, benzene, toluene or xylene.

The starting materials of formula II are known, and can be prepared by a method analogous to that described in Ber. 86, 1528-39 (1953).
The compounds of formula I are suitable for the control of insects. To be particularly emphasised is their high degree of effectiveness against Lepidoptera.
In the U S Patent Specifications Nos. 2,462,835 and
2,545,283, dicarboximides are described as synergists.
Reference is made to, inter alia, their insecticidal action.
The insecticidal, herbicidal and fungicidal action of dicarboximides is described in the U S Patent Specification No. 3,654,302.
Compared with the compounds described in the above-mentioned patent specifications, the dicarboximides of formula I exhibit an unexpectedly better larvicidal action, especially in the case of larvae of Lepidoptera.
_ 4 _ .

1(~53;~44 The insecticidal action of the dicarboximides of formula I can be appreciably broadened and adapted to suit given circumstances by the addition of other insecticides. Suitable additives are, for example:

organic phosphorous compounds~
nitrophenols and derivatives thereof, formamidines, carbamates and chlorinated hydrocarbons.

The compo~mds of formula I can be used on their own or ~ogcther with suitable carriers and/or additives.
Suitable carriers and additives may be solid or liquid, and they correspond to the substances common in forrnulation practice, such as, e.g. natural or regenerated substances, solvents, dispersing agents, wetting agents, adhesives, thickeners, binders and/or fertilisers.

For application, the compo~mds of formula I can be processed into the form of dusts, emulsion concentrates, granulates, dispersions, sprays or solutions, the formulation of these preparations being e~fected in a manner commonly kno~n in practice. Also to be mentioned are cattle dips and spray races, in which aqueous preparations are used. - -The agents according to the invention are prepared in a manner known per se by the intimate mixing and/or grinding of active substances of formula I with suitable carrlers, optionally with the addition of dispersing agents or solvents which are inert to the active substances.
