Acid acceptors which may be used with dimethylformamide and these other solvents include 65 pyridine, alkylpyridines, quinoline and similar heterocyclic bases. Pyridine is a preferred acid acceptor. When pyridine is used alone it acts both as a diluent and acid acceptor. The preferred medium for carrying out this reaction is dimethylformamide with pyridine as an acid acceptor.

Carbamates of this invention may be used to control insects such as aphids, cockroaches, cabbage loopers, dock beetles, mosquitoes and the like. Insecticidal quantities of one or more of the carbamates are applied directly to the insect or their environment for such control. In many instances the carbamates of this invention exhibit significantly better insecticidal activity than the carbamate from which they were derived. The carbamates of this invention in which R represents an aralkyl group, especially carbamate gave' 92.5% control.

1 Example 18 N-phenylthio-N-methyl-l-naphthyl carbamate and N- methyl-thio-N-methyl-l-naphthyl carbamate were tested at 0.98 ppm. and 1.9 ppm. respectively as aphicides by the general method described in Example 17.

' N-phenylthio-N-methyl 1 naphthyl carbamate gave 98.5% mortality and N-methylthio-N-methyl-l-naphthyl Example 19 N-p-tolythio-N-methyl-l-naphthyl carbamate and N-pchlorophenylthio Namethyl-l-naphthyl carbamate were tested against dock beetle larvae (Gastrophysa cyanea Mel sh.) by the following method. This method is designed to evaluate the extent towhich leaves are protected from insect feeding. I 1

Each test compound was dissolved in a suitable organic solvent and then diluted to a concentration of 15.6 p.p.m. with water containing a small amount of surfactant. 4 replicate sets of 20 mm. leaf disks (5 for each set) were cut from dock weed 1eaves. Each set of disks was dipped in the above-described mixture of the test compound, drained and placed in a dish. Each. set was then dried of excess moisture and infested with 5 larvae. The sets were then incubated for 24 hrs. After this period, mortality counts were made on each replicate and a percent mortality based on the average of these counts was made. N-p-tolylthio-N-methyl 1 naphthylcarbamate provided 100% control; and N-p-chlorophenylthio N methyl-1- naphthyl carbamate gave 90% control.

Example 20 N-p-tolylthio-N-methyl 1 naphthyl carbamate was tested on cabbage looper larvae (Trichoplusia ni) at a concentration of 500 p.p.m. by the general method described in Example 19, using cucumber leaf disks. It gave 96% control.

Example 21 Representative carbamates of this invention were tested for activity against nymphal American cockroaches (Periplanera americana L.) by the following method. Each test compound was dissolved in a suitable organic solvent and then diluted in water such that a 2.5 microliter dose gave 1250 ng. per insect. A random mixture of male and female roaches was anesthetized with 00 and 3 replicates of roaches each were sorted out and placed in corrugated cardboard trays. A 2.5 microliter dose of the test compound mixture was applied to the abdomen of each roach with a micrometer syringe. Each replicate was placed in a recovery cage. After 24 hrs. mortality counts were made on each replicate and a percent mortality based on the average of these counts was made. The results of these tests appear below in Table II.

Representative carbamates of this type were tested as culicides against Aedes. aegypti 4th stage larvae by the following method:

A standard acetone solution of the test carbamate was prepared along with 3 replicate cups each filled with 100 ml. H O containing 10 larvae. Enough carbamate-acetone solution was mixed into each cup to give a desired carbamate concentration in the 100 ml. H 0. Immediately after this mixing the cups were covered and placed in a controlled environment at F. 48 hrs. thereafter mortality readings were taken. The percent mortality, based on the averages of the 3 replicates, are reported in Table III.

"Mammalian toxicity tests also indicate that the carbamates of this invention are significantly less toxic than their precursors. For instance, standard oral mammalian toxicitytests on rats showed that the N-methylthio, N- phenylthio and N-4-chlorophenylthio derivatives of 3- sec.butylphenyl-N-methyl carbamate were about 2 to 4 times less toxic than 3 sec.butylphenyl-N-methyl carbamate.

As illustrated above, insecticidal dosages of carbamates of this invention are effective for controlling a variety of a'rthropodal pests. For application to such insect pests one or more of these carbamates may, in general, be formulated with the same materials and by the same techniques used to formulate the carbamates from which they are derived. Liquid formulations of the carbamates of this invention will contain one or more suitable solvents such as hydrocarbon solvents and polar solvents and one or more surface active agents. The surface active agent will desirably be nonionic. It permits the formulation to be readily dispersed in Water for field use. Such liquid formulations may be applied as sprays or gas propelled sprays. Solid formulations of the normally solid carbamates of this invention may be made by mixing one or more of them with a solid diluent such as clay, talc, diatomaceous earth and the like. The normally liquid carbamates may be sprayed on absorbent solid diluents to form granular or dust compositions. These insecticidal compositions may also contain other compatible pesticides, fillers, stickers, adjuvants, stabilizers, synergists and the like.

Certain carbamates of this invention such as the chlorinated benzyl carbamates are useful as herbicides in preand post-emergence applications. For pre-emergence control of undesirable vegetation these carbamates will be applied in herbicidal quantities to the environment, e.g.,

soil infested with seeds and/or seedlings of such vegetation. Such application will inhibit the growth of or kill the seeds, germinating seeds and seedlings. They are applied directly to the foliage and other plant parts in postemergence applications. They are effective against weed grasses such as watergrass, crabgrass and wild oats as well as broadleaved weeds such as mustard, pigweed and lambs-quarters.

The amount of carbamate administered will vary with the particular plant part or plant growth medium which is to be contacted, the general location of application, i.e., sheltered areas such as greenhouses as compared to exposed areas such as fields, as well as the desired type of control. For pre-emergent control of most plants dosages in the range of about 0.5 to 20 lbs. per acre will be used. Such administration will give a concentration of about 2 to 80 p.p.m. carbamate distributed throughout 0.1 acrefoot. For post-emergence application, such as foliar spray application, compositions containing about 0.5 to 8 lbs. carbamate per 100 gal. spray will be used. Such application is equivalent to about 0.5 to 20 lbs. carbamate per acre.

The herbicidal compositions of this invention comprise a herbicidal amount of one or more of the above described carbamates intimately admixed with a biologically inert carrier. The carrier may be a liquid diluent such as water or acetone or a solid. The solid may be in the form of dust, powder or granules. These compositions will also usually contain adjuvants such as a wetting or dispersing agent to facilitate their penetration into the plant growth media or plant tissue and generally enhance their effectiveness. These compositions may also contain other pesticides, stabilizers, conditioners, fillers and the like.
