The total number of carbon atoms in a substituent group is indicated by the "Ci-Cj" prefix where i and j are numbers from 1 to 8. For example, C1-C3 alkylsulfonyl includes methylsulfonyl through propylsulfonyl; C2 alkoxyalkoxy designates OCH2OCH3; C4 alkoxyalkoxy
designates the various isomers of an alkoxy group substituted with a second alkoxy group containing a total of 4 carbon atoms, examples including OCH2OCH2CH2CH3 and OCH2CH2OCH2CH3; C2 cyanoalkyl designates CH2CN and C3 cyanoalkyl includes CH2CH2CN and CH(CN)CH3; C2
alkylcarbonyl designates C(O)CH3 and C4 alkylcarbonyl includes C(O) CH2CH2CH3 and C(O)CH(CH3)2; C2 alkoxycarbonyl designates C(O)0CH3 and C4 alkoxycarbonyl includes
C(O)OCH2CH2CH3 and C(O)OCH(CH3)2; and as a final example, C3 alkoxycarbonylalkyl designates CH2CO2CH3 and C4
alkoxycarbonylalkyl includes CH2CH2CO2CH3, CH2CO2CH2CH3 and CH(CH3)CO2CH3.
Compounds of Formula I may exist as one or more stereoisomers. The various stereoisomers include
enantiomers, diastereomers and geometric isomers. One skilled in the art will appreciate that one stereoisomer may be the more active. One skilled in the art knows how to separate said enantiomers, diastereomers and geometric isomers. Accordingly, the present invention comprises racemic mixtures, individual stereoisomers, and optically active mixtures, as well as agriculturally suitable salts of the compounds of Formula I.
DETAILS OF THE INVENTION
Compounds of Formula I are prepared according to Schemes 1 through 18 with substituents as previously defined, unless otherwise noted.
Compounds of Formula I are prepared by the reaction of acyl derivatives of Formula II (Q-1, Q-2, Q-3, Q-4, Q-5 (Z=CH2) and Q-6) with compounds of Formula III as illustrated in Scheme 1. Typical reactions involve the combination of equimolar amounts of II and III in the presence of a base such as an alkali metal, tertiary amine, metal hydride and the like in conventional organic solvents including ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, methylene chloride, chloroform, N,N-dimethyl formamide and dimethylsulfoxide. The reaction can be conducted at temperatures in the range of -100°C to 100°C.

The acyl derivatives of Formula II (Q-1, Q-2 and Q-5 (Z=CH2) ) can be prepared according to Scheme 2 by reaction of the appropriate amine with acylating agents such as phosgene, carbonyldiimidazole, substituted phenylchloroformates and the like (Helv. Chem. Acta, 1972, 55, 388; Ann. Chem., 1961, 648, 72; and J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1948, 70, 3439). Typical reactions involve the combination of equimolar amounts of Formula V compounds and Formula IV compounds in the presence of a base such as an alkali metal, tertiary amine, metal hydride and the like in conventional organic solvents including ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, methylene chloride and chloroform. The reaction can be conducted at temperatures in the range of -100°C to 100°C. SCHEME 2

Alternatively, compounds of Formula I (Q-1, Q-2, Q-5 (Z=CH2)) can be prepared by the reaction of Formula V compounds with isocyanates of Formula VI. Typical reactions involve the combination of equimolar amounts of V and VI in a conventional organic solvent such as but not limited to ethyl acetate, methylene chloride,

Syntheses of Formula V (Q-1) compounds are described in U.S. 4,070,365 and WO 88/01004. In those documents, amines of Formula V are reacted with phenyl isocyanates to afford the desired amides. The syntheses of compounds of Formula VII (Q-2, Z=CH2) and Formula VIII (Q-5) are described in WO 91/17983 and WO 90/07495, respectively.
Figure imgf000018_0002
Formula VII (Z=CH2) compounds are formed by reduction of pyridazinones (R4=R5=O). Formula VIII compounds are hydrazones whose syntheses are well-known to those skilled in the art.
Compounds of Formula II (Q-3) are prepared according to methods described in WO 88/05046. These materials are formed by 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of a nitrile ylides; a reaction well-known to those skilled in the art.
Compounds of Formula I (Q-2, Z = O, S and NR29) can be prepared by the reaction of semicarbazones of Formula IX with compounds of Formula X. Typical reactions involve the combination of an excess in molar amounts of a Formula X compound (1 . 1 molar equivalents to 40 molar equivalents) with 1 equivalent of a Formula IX compound in the presence of less than one molar equivalent of an acid catalyst (0 equivalents to 0.9 equivalents).
Typical acid catalysts include alkyl or aryl sulfonic acids (such as methyl, camphor or p-toluene) and mineral acids (such as hydrochloric or sulfuric). Conventional, polar organic solvents such as acetonitrile,
dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, methanol or ethanol can be used. The reaction temperature can vary from 0°C to the reflux temperature of the particular solvent being used and the reaction is usually complete in less than 24 hours. Scheme 5 illustrates this transformation.
SCHEME 5
Figure imgf000019_0001
Formula IX compounds can be prepared by the reaction of compounds of Formula XI with semicarbazides of Formula XII. An acid catalyst such as hydrochloric, sulfuric or p-toluene sulfonic acid may be used in this reaction. Reaction temperatures can range from 0 to 150°C with the reflux temperature of the particular solvent generally being preferred.

Lett., 1988, 29, 2835; and J. Org. Chem., 1986, 51, 2402). Scheme 7 illustrates this transformation.
SCHEME 7
Figure imgf000020_0002
Numerous alternative procedures exist for the
preparation of α-hydroxyketones of Formula XI. Such procedures are well-known to one skilled in the art
(March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 3rd Edition, 1985,
1164). Compounds of Formula XI where Z is 0, R3 is aryl and E is H are benzoins whose preparations are well-known to one skilled in the art.
α-Keto sulfides of Formula XI where Z is S can be prepared from ketones of Formula XIII using procedures known in the art (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1985, 107, 4175;
J. Org. Chem., 1988, 53, 3125).
α-Amino ketones of Formula XI where Z is NR29 can be prepared from ketones of Formula XIII using procedures known in the art (J. Chem. Soc., 1959, 1479; Synthesis, 1972, 191).
The starting ketones of Formula XIII are known in the art or can be obtained by methods analogous to known procedures. Those skilled in the art will recognize the Formula XIII compounds to include deoxybenzoins,
indanones, tetralones, chromanones, thiochromanones, benzofuran-3-ones, isochromanones and others.
One skilled in the art will recognize that the transformation of Formula XIII compounds into Formula XI compounds may require the use of protecting groups to prevent unwanted side reactions of functionalities that may be sensitive to the reaction conditions (for example an amino group attached to an indanone may require a protecting group to render it unreactive in an
α-hydroxylation of the carbonyl group).
Semicarbazides of Formula XII where X is O or S can be prepared by using the procedure shown in Scheme 8.
Compounds of Formula VI are treated with an excess of a molar amount of hydrazine or hydrazine hydrate in an anhydrous aprotic solvent at a temperature between -100°C and 100°C.

Formula XV compound in the presence of an acid catalyst (with 0.05 to 0.2 molar equivalents preferred). The reaction can be carried out in a variety of polar organic solvents, including, but not limited to, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, methanol or ethanol at a temperature between 0 and 90°C with the preferred temperature being the reflux temperature of the solvent. This reaction is illustrated by Scheme 10.

Compounds of the Formula I where Q is Q-6 and A is H can be prepared in a conventional three-step process whereby Formula XXII esters are saponified, converted to the acid chloride and reacted with an appropriately substituted amine. Scheme 14 illustrates this method. SCHEME 14
Figure imgf000026_0001

The reaction temperature can vary from 0 to 100°C with 25°C being preferred. The reaction is usually complete in 24 hours. This procedure is analogous to that described in J. Med. Chem., 1984, 27, 1103. Scheme 16 illustrates these transformations.
SCHEME 16
Figure imgf000027_0001
Compounds of the Formula XXV can be prepared by a two-step procedure whereby Formula XXVII compounds are reacted with appropriately substituted amines of Formula XXVIII in the presence of a base such as sodium or potassium carbonate in a solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, tetrahydrofuran and the like. The temperature of the reaction can vary from about 25 to 150°C and the reaction is usually complete in 48 h. In the subsequent step the amine can be protected and the ortho-nitro substituent can be removed by
hydrogenation and reductive diazotization (Tetrahedron Lett. 1989, 929). Scheme 17 illustrates these
transformations. SCHEME 17
Figure imgf000028_0001
One skilled in the art will recognize Formula XXVIII compounds as substituted amines, the preparations of which are in the literature (J. Chem. Soc, Chem.
Commun., 1987, 897; Synth. Commun., 1980, 10, 107).
Compounds of the Formula I (where Q is Q-6 and A and E are taken together) are easily recognized by those skilled in the art as dihydroindoles and tetrahydroquinolines, preparations of which are well documented in the literature (J. Med. Chem., 1984 1439).

sulferiylation methods well documented in the literature.
It is recognized that in many of the transformations described it is necessary to utilize appropriate
protecting groups to prevent unwanted side reactions or use reagents that do not affect functional groups other than those desired to be changed. One skilled in the art will be able to select appropriate protecting groups and reagents to this end.

In certain instances, combinations with other
arthropodicides having a similiar spectrum of control but a different mode of action will be particularly
advantageous for resistance management.
Arthropod pests are controlled and protection of agronomic crops, animal and human health is achieved by applying one or more of the compounds of this invention, 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. A preferred method of application is by spraying. Alternatively, granular formulations of these compounds can be applied to the plant foliage or the soil. Other methods of application include direct and residual sprays, aerial sprays, systemic uptake, baits, eartags, boluses, foggers, fumigants, 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.
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, spreader stickers, adjuvants, and synergists and other solvents such as piperonyl butoxide often enhance compound efficacy.
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, and the like. Under normal circumstances, application rates of about 0.01 to 2 kg of active ingredient per hectare are sufficient to control pests in agronomic ecosystems, but as little as 0.001 kg/hectare may be sufficient 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 0.1 mg/square meter may be sufficient or as much as 150 mg/square meter may be required.
The following Tests demonstrate the control efficacy of compounds of this invention on specific pests. The pest control protection afforded by the compounds is not limited, however, to these species. See Index Table A for compound descriptions.
Figure imgf000079_0001
TEST A
Fall Armyworm
Test units, each consisting of an 8-ounce (230 mL) plastic cup containing a layer of wheat germ diet, approximately 0.5 cm thick, were prepared. Ten third-instar larvae of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were placed into a cup. Solutions of each of the test compounds (acetone/distilled water 75/25 solvent) were sprayed into the cups, a single solution per set of three cups. Spraying was accomplished by passing the cups, on a conveyer belt, directly beneath a flat fan hydraulic nozzle which discharged the spray at a rate of 0.5 pounds of active ingredient per acre (about 0.55 kg/ha) at
30 p.s.i. (207 kPa). The cups were then covered and held at 27°C and 50% relative humidity for 72 hours, after which time readings were taken. Of the compounds tested, the following resulted in greater than or equal to 80% mortality: 1 and 3*.
TEST B
Tobacco Budworm
The test procedure of Test A was repeated for
efficacy against third-instar larvae of the tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens) except that mortality was assessed at 48 hours. Of the compounds tested, the following resulted in greater than or equal to 80% mortality: 3*.
TEST C
Southern Corn Rootworm
Test units, each consisting of an 8-ounce (230 mL) plastic cup containing 1 sprouted corn seed, were
prepared. Sets of three test units were sprayed as described in Test A with individual solutions of the test compounds. After the spray on the cups had dried, five third-instar larvae of the southern corn rootworm
(Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi) were placed into ea cup. A moistened dental wick was inserted into each cup to prevent drying and the cups were then covered. The cups were then held at 27°C and 50% relative humidity fo 48 hours, after which time mortality readings were taken. Of the compounds tested, the following resulted in great than or equal to 80% mortality: 3*.
TEST D
Aster Leafhopper
Test units were prepared from a series of 12-ounce (350 mL) cups, each containing oat (Avena sativa)
seedlings in a 1-inch (2.54 cm) layer of sterilized soil The test units were sprayed as described in Test A with individual solutions of the below-listed compounds.• Aft the oats had dried from the spraying, between 10 and 15 adult aster leafhoppers (Mascrosteles fascifrons) were aspirated into each of the covered cups. The cups were held at 27°C and 50% relative humidity for 48 hours, aft which time mortality readings were taken. Of the
compounds tested, the following resulted in greater than or equal to 80% mortality: 3*.
TEST E
Boll Weevil
Five adult boll weevils (Anthonomus grandis) were placed into each of a series of 9 ounce (260 mL) cups. The test procedure employed was then otherwise the same in Test A with three cups per treatment. Mortality readings were taken 48 hours after treatment. Of the compounds tested, no mortality levels greater than or equal to 80% were observed.
*Tested at 0.125 lbs.
