The compounds of the present invention represented by generic formula (A), are useful agents for the control of pests such as insects and acarids. Without any intention of being bound by theory and although the mode of action of the compounds of formula (A) as applied to the control of insects and acarids is not completely understood, the compounds of formula (A) appear to be effective for the control of insects and acarids by reason of mechanisms of the nature of the insect control agents known as pyrethrins and synthetic pyrethroids. As such, the organic moiety (R5) is selected from the organo groups generally associated with the formation of pyrethrin esters and synthetic pyrethroid esters. Typical of such organo groups (R5) are the groups shown in, for example, U.S. Patents 3,973,035, 3,973,036, 3,996,244 and 4,003,945, Offenlegungsschrift 26 47 366, and Republic of South Africa Application No. 76/4622.

The reaction generally proceeds rather slowly. It may be assisted by a catalyst such as a small amount of potassium iodide. A good review of the synthesis of amino acids and esters of amino acids is given in Methodicum Chimicum, Academic Press, New York, Vol. 6, pp 599-623 (1975).
The halo esters of formula II can be prepared from e the acid halide thereof (II, wherein WR represents a bromo or e chloro) by reaction with an alcohol (R -OH). The a-halosubstituted acid halide and α-halo-substituted acid can be prepared by halogenation, using molecular halogen, of (1) a mono-carboxylic acid, or (2) a malonic ester followed by saponification using, for example, the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction and procedures described in Org. Syn. Coll., Vol. 2, (1943); ibid., Vol. 3, 495, 523, 623, and 848 (1955); ibid., Vol. 4, 358 and 608 (1963); Org. Syn. 50, 31 (1970); and JACS 91, 7090 (1969). Other suitable methods include the -510 6787 reaction, of N-bromos.uccinimide or N-chlorosuccinimide with an acid halide (II, wherein WR5 represents bromo or chloro) following the procedures of Harpp et al., J. Org. Chem. 40, 3420 (1975) and references cited therein. A method suitable when olefinic unsaturation is present is alkylation of aceto acetates followed by halogenation of the anion, e.g. the sodium enolate, and deacetylation. Rathke et al., Tetrahedron letters No. 43, 3995 (1971) and Slotter et al., ibid., No. 40, 4067 (1972). The synthesis of α-chloro acids may be accomplished also by reacting the acid with molecular chlorine in the presence of ohlorosulfonic acid and chloranil as described by Ogata et al., J. Org. Chem. 40, 2960 (1975). They may also be prepared from α-hydroxy acids by conventional methods.
The compounds of formula (A) can be synthesized also by reacting an acid of formula (III), or the acid chloride or - 5 bromide thereof, with an alcohol or mercaptan HW-R .
R3 I C I4 R* II C - OH (III) The acid of formula (III) can be made from the halo 21 acid or lower alkyl ester of formula (IV) (R is hydrogen or lower alkyl) using the conditions described hereinabove by reaction with the amine of formula (I).
OR (IV) Following reaction of a halo ester of formula (IV) 21 wherein R Is lower alkyl with an amine of formula (I), the resulting amino ester of formula (V) 646787 1 11 21 N - C - C - Ok (V) is saponified by conventional methods to the amino acid of 5 formula (Ill) or a reactive derivative thereof such as the acid chloride, acid bromide or sin inorganic salt thereof such as the sodium or potassium salt.
