Compounds consisting of a variously substituted unsaturated aliphatic chain and a terminal vinyl dichloro or trichloro substituted residue are disclosed, as well as a process for preparing them. The compounds are insecticides which exhibit an activity similar to that of the juvenile hormone and inhibit the development and metamorphosis of various insects.
Compounds are disclosed which have a juvenile hormone action on insects and also exhibit acaricide action. Said compounds are unsaturated aliphatic compounds having a trichloromethyl end group and the other end group of which is a phenol group which may be substituted and/or condensed, and which are capable of hindering the growth of insects from the larval to the adult stage and also exhibit an acaricide action on both adult acari and their eggs.
New compounds are disclosed which have a juvenile hormone action on insects and also exhibit acaricide action. More particularly, said new compounds are unsaturated aliphatic compounds having a trichloromethyl end group and the other end group of which is a phenol group which may be substituted and/or condensed, and which are capable of hindering the growth of insects from the larval to the adult stage and also exhibit an acaricide action on both adult acari and their eggs. Processes for the production of the new compounds of the invention are also disclosed.
