The insecticidal action of the compounds of the formula I was demonstrated by the following tests:
The active ingredients were prepared a) as 0.1 % s~rength solution in acetone or b) a~ 10 ~ strength emuLsion in a mixture of 70 % by weight cyclohexanol, 20 % by weight Nekanila LN
(Lutensol~ AP6, wettiny agent with emulsifying and dispersing acticn ba~ed on etho~ylated alkylphenols) and 10 ~ by weight Emulphor~ EL (Emulan0 E~, emulsi-fier based on ethoxylated fatty alcohols~
and diluted to the required concen~ration with acetone in the case of a) or with water in the case of b).
After completion of the test~, the lowest concen-~ration of the compounds which still caused 80 - 100 ~
inhibi~ion or mortality compared with untreated control test~ was determined (action threshold or minLmal concen-tration (mg)).

B. Plutella maculipenni~ (cabbage moth caterpillar), cont2ct action Leaves of young cabbage plant~ were wetted with the aqueou~ formulation of the actîve ingredien~ and then placed on a moi~tened filter. 10 caterpillaxs of the 4~h stage of development were then placed on each leaf.
The mortality ra~e was determined after 48 h.
In this ~est, Compound~ 1.004, 1.006, 1.009, 1.01~t 1.014, 1.017, 1.020, 1.034, 1.0~:6, 1.037, 2.005, 2.012, 2.013 and 2.017 had ac~ion thre~holds of from 100 to 1000 ppm.

After 5 days in a glasshouse, the success of treatment was determined under a microscopeO
In this test, Compounds 1.006, 1.017, 1.020, 1.023, 1.036J 2.012 and 2.013 had action thre~hold~ of from 20 to lO00 ppm.
D. Caenorhabditis elegans (free-living nematodes)~ con-tact action The soil of a te~t vessel was wetted with solutionsof ~he ac~iveingredients in acetone and, aFter the solvent had e~aporated off, covered with a ~uspension of E. coli b~cteria a~ nutrient medium and in~ected with 50 ~l of nematod~ ~uspension.
The mortality rate wa~ determined after 4~ h.
- In thi~ test, Compound~ 1.002, 1.023, l.û28, 1.029, 1.030, 1.031 and ~.019 had action thre~holds of from 4 to 100 ppm,
