DF.TAIT.S OF T~F INV~.~TION
Compounds of Formula I (J-l) can be prepared from ketones of Formula II ~y a two-step process whereby the Formula II compound is condensed with hydrazine and then reacted with a suitably substituted aryl isocyanate of Formula IV. Procedures for the condensation of hydrazine with ketones are well known. For the purposes of this invention, combination of the Formula II ketone with l to 2 equivalents of hydrazine hydrate in an alcoholic solvent such as methanol, ethanol or propanol at the refluY. temperature of the solvent affords the intermediate hydrazones of Formula III. Subsequent reaction of the Formula III hydrazone with an equimolar amount of an aryl isocyanate affords the Formula I
semicarbazones, typically as high melting solids.

~I + ~ ~ NCO I(J-1) ~Rl) Ketones of Formula II are either known in the art or are available via procedures analogous to known ones.
For example, addition of an aryl magnesium or aryl lithium derivative to an optionally substituted phenyl acetaldehyde affords an intermediate alcohol VI which is then readily oxidized to the Formula II ketone (Schem~e 2). Alternatively, alkylation of a trimethylsilylcyano-hydrin (Formula VIII) with a benzyl halide followed by conversion of the trimethylsilylcyanohydrin group to the ketone is a useful method for synthesis of the Formula II
compounds (Scheme 3).

The reaction was then gradually warmed to room temperature and partitioned between ether and 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The ether extracts were then dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to 18.86 g of a yellow oil which was purified by chromatography on silica gel (2.5% ethyl acetate in hexane) to afford 10.68 g of a yellow oil, which was confirmed by proton NMR to be 1-~3-chlorophenyl)benzeneethanol.
To a solution of 1-(3-chlorophenyl)benzeneethanol (9.44 g, 40.6 mmol) in 150 ml of methylene chloride was added pyridinium chlorochromate (13.1 g, 60.9 mmol) and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen o~ernight. After this time, the reaction was diluted with 250 ml of ether, filtered through magnesium sulfate and concentrated to 9.34 g of a brown oil. Chromatography on silica gel (10%
ethyl acetate in hexane) aff~rded 8.23 g of the title compound as a yellow solid.

W092/06076 ~ PCT/US91/07091 ~ ~ 20 Step B: [1-(3-chlorophenyl-2-phenylethylidene~-N-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl~hydrazine-carboxamide To a solution of the ketone from Step A (2.0 g, 8.7 mmol) in 20 ml of ethanol was added hydrazine hydrate (0.51 ml, 10.4 mmol) and the mixture was heated at reflux under nitrogen overnight. The reaction was then concentrated and partitioned between ether and 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The ether eY.tracts were washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to 1.86 g of a dark yellow oil. To a mixture of 0.93 g of this oil (3.8 mmol) in 15 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added
4-trifluoromethylphenylisocyanate (0.71 g, 3.8 mmol) and the reaction was stirred under nitrogen for 72 hours.
The reaction was then concentrated and the residue triturated with ether to afford 0.87 g of the title compound as a white solid, mp 225-229C.

~ 44 For~ul~tion ~n~ Use The compounds of this invention will generally be used in formulation with an agriculturally suitable carrier comprising a liquid or solid diluent or an organic solvent. Useful formulations of the compounds of Formula I can be prepared in conventional ways. They include dusts, granules, baits, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates, dry flowables and the li~e. Many of these can be applied directly. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of from about one to several hundred liters per hectare.
High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, contain from less than about 1~ to 99% ~y weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of a) about 0.1%
to 20% surfactantts) and b) about 5% to 99% solid or liquid diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain effective amounts of these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:

Percent hy Weipht Active Tn~re~ient Diluent(s) Surf~ct~nt(s) Wettable Powders 25-90 0-74 1-10 Oil Suspensions, 5-50 40-95 0-15 Emulsions, Solutions, (including Emulsifiable Concentrates) Dusts 1-25 70-99 0-5 Granules, Baits 0.01-955-99 0-15 and Pellets High Strength 90-99 0-10 0-2 Compositions W092/~076 PCT/US91/07091 45 20933S1 j Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.
Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd Ed., Dorland Eooks, Caldwell, New Jersey.
The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, "Solvents Guide," 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950.
Solubility under O.l~ is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at O~C. "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", Allured Publ. Corp., Ridgewood, New Jersey, as well as Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publ.
Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foam, caking, corrosion, microbiological growth, etc. Preferably, ingredients should be approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the use intended.
The methods of making such compositions are well known. Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example, U.S. 3,060,084). Granules and pellets can be made by spraying the active material upon W O 92/06076 ~ ~ PC~r/US91/07091 q"Q
preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See J. E. Browning, "Agglomeration", Ch~m;c~l Fng;neer;n~, December 4, 1967, pages 147 and following, and "Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook", 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1963, pages 8 to 59 and following.

The speclfic species for which control is exemplified are: fall armyworm, Spo~opter~ fruigiper~a;
tobacco budworm, ~eliothis virescens; boll weevil, Anthono~us ~r~n~is; aster leafhopper, M~crosteles f~sc;frons; black bean aphid, (A~his F~h~e); southern corn rootworm, Di~hrotic~ un~eci~pl~nct~t~. The pest control protection afforded by the compounds of the present invention is not limited, however, to these species. The compounds of this invention may also be utilized as rodenticides.

W092/~076 ~ PCT/US91/07091 ~9 S6 ~p~lic~t;on Arthropod pests are controlled and protection of agronomic crops, animal and human health is achieved by applying one or more of the Formula I compounds, in an effective amount, to the environment of the pests including the agronomic and/or nonagronomic locus of infestation, to the area to be protected, or directly on the pests to be controlled. Because of the diversity of habitat and behavior of these arthropod pest species, many different methods of application are employed. A
preferred method of application is by spraying with equipment that distributes the compound in the environment of the pests, on the foliage, animal, person, or premise, in the soil or animal, to the plant part that is infested or needs to be protected. Alternatively, granular formulations of these toxicant compounds can be applied to or incorporated into the soil. Other methods of application can also be employed including direct and residual sprays, aerial sprays, baits, eartags, boluses, foggers, aerosols, and many others. The compounds can be incorporated into baits that are consumed by the arthropods or in devices such as traps and the like which entice them to ingest or otherwise contact the compounds.
The compounds of this invention can be applied in their pure state, but most often application will be of a formulation comprising one or more compounds with suitable carriers, diluents, and surfactants and possibly in combination with a food depending on the contemplated end use. A preferred method of application involves spraying a water dispersion or refined oil solution of the compounds. Combinations with spray oils, spray oil concentrations, and synergists such as piperonyl butoxide often enhance the efficacy of the compounds of Formula I.

W092/0~76 PCT/US91/07091 _ 57 20933~1 The rate of application required for effective control will depend on such factors as the species of arthropod to be controlled, the pest's life cycle, life stage, its size, location, time of year, host crop or animal, feeding behavior, mating behavior, ambient moisture, temperature, etc. In general, application rates of 0.01 to 2 kg of active ingredient per hectare are sufficient to provide large-scale effective control of pests in agronomic ecosystems under normal circumstances, but as little as 0.001 kg/hectare or as much as 8 kg hectare may be required. For nonagronomic applications, effective use rates will range from about 1.0 to 50 mg/square meter but as little as about 0.1 mg/square meter or as much as 150 mg/square meter may be required.
The following tests demonstrate the control efficacy of compounds of Formula I on specific pests; see Index Table A for compound descriptions. Compounds not included in the test result summaries were either not screened or produced less than the recited threshold 2~ mortalities.
