The compounds of the present invention were prepared by methods generally known to those skilled in the art. Many of the compounds of the present invention in which R' is naphthyl were prepared in the manner shown in Schema 1.
In Schema 1, a 4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (SM1) was reacted with the appropriately substituted alkyl chloride hydrochloride salt (SM2) in a solvent, for example, DMF : or THF, at 0°C to ambient temperature in the presence of a base, for example, potassium carbonate, to yield the appropriately substituted alkoxy benzaldehyde (BB). The appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (BB) was then reduced in a solvent, for example methanol, with a reducing agent, for example, lithium . aluminum hydride, sodium borohydride, or triacetoxyborohydride, to yield the appropriately substituted phenyl alkoxy alcohol (CC). The appropriately : substituted phenyl alkoxy alcohol (CC) can also be prepared by reacting the appropriately substituted alkyl chloride hydrochloride salt (SM2) with either the appropriately substituted acid (SM3) or phenyl alcohol (SM4) in a solvent in the presence of a reducing agent as set forth above. The appropriately substituted phenyl alkoxy alcohol (CC) can then be reacted with either p-toluene sulfonyl chloride (SM5) and a base, for example triethylamine, in a solvent to form the appropriately substituted phenyl alkylthio- or alkoxysulfonyl toluene (DD) or sulfonyl chloride in a solvent to form the appropriately substituted phenylalkylthio or phenylalkoxy chloride hydrochloride (EE).
If necessary, the naphthyl ring can be prepared at this time. In general, the naphthyl ring was prepared via the formation of the appropriate naphthol. The preparation of the naphthol begins by reacting: 1) the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (SM6) with either sodium hydride and 3- : (triphenylphosphino)propanoate hydrochloride in THF and N-N-dimethylsulfoxide (DMF) or with succinic acid, disodium salt and acetic anhydride to form the appropriately substituted phenylbutenoic acid (FF); 2) the appropriately substituted phenyl iodide (SM7) with but-3-ynol, a base, for example, triethylamine, copper iodide and a palladium phosphine complex to yield the appropriately substituted phenylbutynol (GG); 3) the appropriately substituted phenylcarbonylpropanoic acid (SMS) with zinc and mercury (II) chloride in water to form the appropriately substituted phenylbutanoic acid (HH), which can also be preprepared by hydrogenating the appropriately substituted phenylbutenoic acid (FF) or } phenylbutynol (GG) in alcohol with palladium on carbon followed by treatment with chromium oxide and sulfuric acid; 4) the appropriately substituted 2- . (diethylaminocarbonyl)benzene (SM9) with n-butyllithium followed by prop-2- enylbromide and a dimethylthio-copper chloride complex to yield the appropriately substituted 2-(diethylaminocarbonyl)-3-prop-2-enylbenzene (JJ); or 5) the appropriately substituted benzene (SM10) with oxolan-2-one and aluminium : chloride at elevated temperature to form the appropriately substituted trihydronaphthalen-1-one (KK). The trihydronaphthalen-1-one (KK) can also be : prepared by reacting the appropriately substituted phenylbutanoic acid (HH) with an acid, for example polyphosphoric acid, or reacting the appropriately substituted 2-(diethylaminocarbonyl)-3-prop-2-enylbenzene (JJ) with methyllithium. The appropriately substituted trihydronaphthalen-1-one (KK) is then reacted with bromine in a solvent, for example methylene chloride, to form the the appropriately substituted 2-bromo-trihydronaphthalen-1-one (LL). The appropriately substituted 2-bromo-trihydronaphthalen-1-one (LL) is then reduced with a reducing agent and lithtumbromide in a solvent, for example, DMF, in the manner described above to form the appropriately substituted naphthol (MM), which is commercially availabe when (MM) is 4-chloronaphthol. The appropriately substiuted naphthol (MM) was then reacted with either the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (BB), alcohol (CC), toluene (DD), or hydrochloride (EE) to form the targeted 1- substitutedalkylthio or alkoxy-4-((substituted naphth-1-yl)oxyalkyl)benzene (I), for example, (2-(4-(((4-chloronaphthyl)methoxy)methyl)phenoxy)ethyl)diethylamine.
Additional substituents can be added to the naphthol ring by reacting a 6- aminonaphth-1-ol (SM11) with toluene sulfonyl chloride in the manner disclosed above to yield the 6-amino-1-(methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene (NN). The 6- amino-1-(methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene (NN) was then reacted with t- butyl nitrite in a solvent, for example at 0 °C followed by a copper (II) halide, for example, copper (II) chloride, to yield the appropriate 6-halo-1- (methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene (PP). The 6-amino-1- (methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene (NN) was also reacted with an excess of a copper (II) halide, for example, copper (II) chloride, in a solvent followed by t- butylnitrite in the manner disclosed above to form the appropriate 5,6-dihalo-1- : (methylphenylsulfonyloxy)naphthalene (QQ). The appropriately substituted naphthalene (QQ) or (PP) can then reacted with a base, for example, potassium hydroxide, and an alcohol, for example, ethanol, in a mixture of a solvent, for example, THF, and water to yield the appropriately substituted naphthol (RR), for . example 5,6-dichloronaphthol. When the naphthol was a 5,6-dihalonaphthol (RR) it was reacted with either the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (BB), alcohol ) (CC), toluene (DD), or hydrochloride (EE) and a borane-pyridine complex under acidic conditions, or a base, for example, sodium hydride or triethylamine, in a solvent, for example DMF, or a phosphine complex, for example n- butylphosphine, and DPAD in a solvent, for example, THF, to form the targeted 1- substitutedalkylthio or alkoxy-4-((5,6-substituted naphth-1-yl)oxyalkyl)benzene (Ia), for example, (2-(4-((5,6- dichloronaphthyloxy)methyl)phenoxy)ethyl)diethylamine.
A halo substituent, for example chloro, can be added to the 4-postion of naphthol ring at this time by reacting the appropriately substituted naphthol (MM) or (RR) with a sulfuryl halide, for example, sulfuryl chloride, in a solvent to yield the appropriately substituted 4-halonaphthol (SS). The appropriately substituted 4- halonaphthol (SS) can be reacted either the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (BB), alcohol (CC), toluene (DD), or hydrochloride (EE) in the manner described above to form the targeted 1-substitutedalkylthio or alkoxy-4-((5,6-substituted naphth-1-yl)oxyalkyl)benzene (Ib), for example, (2-(4-((4,6- dichloronaphthyloxy)methyl)phenoxy)ethyl)diethylamine.
As depicted in Schema 2, compounds of the present invention wherein U is nitrogen and n is 1 were prepared by reacting the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (BB) with the appropriately substituted 1-aminonaphthalene (SM12), for example, 1-amino-4-chloronaphthalene, under acidic conditions to form the appropriately substituted 1-aza-1-naphthyl-2-phenylethene (TT), which was then reduced with a reducing agent in the manner disclosed above to yield the targeted targeted 1-substituted -4-((substituted naphth-1-yl)aminoalkyl)benzene (IV), for example, (2-(4-(((4-chloronaphthyl)amino)methyl)phenoxy)- ethyl)diethylamine.
As depicted in Schema 3, compounds of the present invention wherein U is 3 -CH,- and n is 1 were prepared by reacting the appropriately substituted 1- aminonaphthalene (SM12) with the appropriately substituted 4-methylthio-, 4- : methoxy-, or 4-methylamino-1-vinylbenzene (SM13) with t-butylnitrite, in a solvent, for example, acetonitrile, in the presence of palladium acetate to form the appropriately substituted 2-(4-methylthio-, 4-methoxy-, or 4- methylaminophenyl)vinylnaphthalene (UU). The vinylnaphthalene was then hydrogenated in a solvent, for example, ethanol, with a palladium on carbon to form the appropriately substituted 2-(4-methylthio-, 4-methoxy-, or 4- methylaminophenyl)ethylnaphthalene (WW). The ethylnaphthalene (WW) was then reacted in solvent, for example methylene chloride, with boron tribromide to form the appropriately substituted 2-(4-thio-, 4-hydroxy-, or 4- aminophenyl)ethylnaphthalene (XX). The ethylnaphthalene (XX) was in turn reacted with the appropriately substituted alkyl chloride hydrochloride salt (SM2) and an excess of a base, for example, potassium carbonate, in solvent, for example,
DMF, to form the targeted 1-substituted -4-((substituted naphth-1-yl)ethyl)benzene (V), for example, (2-(4-(((4-chloronaphthyl)amino)methyl)phenoxy)- : ethyl)diethylamine. :
Schema 4 depicts another route in which the compounds of the present invention may be prepared. In Schema 4, the appropriately substituted benzaldehyde (SM3) is reacted with a haloalkylbromide, for example, 1-bromo-2- chloromoethane, to yield the appropriately substituted 4-haloalkoxybenzaldehdye (YY), which in turn is reduced with a reducing agent in an alcohol, for example methanol, in the manner described above to form the appropriately substituted 4- haloalkoxyphenylmethan-1-ol (ZZ). The phenylmethan-1-ol (ZZ) was then : reacted at 0 °C to ambient temperature with the appropriately substituted naphthol or phenol (SM14), a phosphine complex , and DPAD in a solvent in the manner described above to yield the corresponding halo-1-(4-substituted naphthyl- or 4- substituted phenyl)oxy)methyl)phenoxy)alkane (AAA), for example, 2-chloro-1- (4-((4-chloronaphthyloxy)methyl)phenoxy)ethane. The alkane (AAA) was then reacted with the appropriate substituent, for example, cis-2,6-dimethylpiperidine, . and a base in acetonitrile to form the corresponding, 1-(subtituted alkoxy)-4-((4- substituted naphthyl or phenyl)oxy)methyl)benzene (VI), for example 1-(2~(2,6- dimethylpiperidyl)ethoxy)-4-((4-chloronaphthyloxy)methyl)benzene. At this point, the benzene (VI) can optionally be reacted with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid in chloroform at 0 C to form the corresponding 2-(4-substituted naphthyl or phenyl)oxy)methyl)phenoxy)alkyl)alkanone (VII), for example, amino(2-(4-((5,6- dichloronaphthyloxy)methyl)phenoxy)ethyl)diethyl-1-one
Schema 5 illustrates yet another route for preparing the compounds of the present invention wherein R' is a disubstituted amino. In schema 5, the appropriately substituted (4-hydroxyphenyl)methan-1-ol (SM4) was reacted with a bromomethylisocyanate and a reducing agent, for example potassium carbonate, in a solvent, for example, DMF, in the manner disclosed above to form the corresponding (4-(cyanomethoxy)phenyl)methan-1-ol (BBB). The methan-1-ol (BBB) was then reacted with sulfinyl chloride in a solvent, for example, chloroform, at 0 °C to form the corresponding 4-(cyanomethoxy)-1- (chloromethyl)benzene (CCC), which was in turn reacted with the appropriately substituted naphthol or phenol (SM14) and a reducing agent, for example, potassium carbonate, in a solvent, for example DMF, in the manner described above to yield the corresponding 1-(((4-substituted naphthyl- or 4-substituted phenylJoxy)methyl)-4-(cyanomethoxy)benzene (DDD). The 4- (cyanomethoxy)benzene (DDD) was reacted with borane in a solvent, for example,
THF, at 0 °C to form the appropriately substituted 1-(((4-substituted naphthyl- or 4-substituted phenyl)oxy)methyl)-4-(aminomethoxy)benzene (EEE). The 4- (aminomethoxy)benzene (EEE) was in turn reacted with the appropriate oxoalkyl chloride, for example, acetyl chloride, in a solvent, for example, pyridine or THF, at 0 °C to yield the corresponding 1-(((4-substituted naphthyl- or 4-substituted phenyDoxy)methyl)-4-(oxoalkylaminomethoxy)benzene (FFF). The 4- (oxoalkylaminomethoxy)benzene (FFF) was then reacted with borane in a solvent in the manner described above to yield the targeted 1-(((4-substituted naphthyl- or
4-substituted phenyl)oxy)methyl)-4-(atkylaminomethoxy)benzene (VIII). At this . point, additional moieties can be optionally added to the amino group by reacting the 4-(alkylaminomethoxy)benzene (VIII) with the appropriate substituted alkyl, ’ alkoxy, or alkoxyalkyl halide and a base, for example, triethylamine, to yield the target 1-(((4-substituted naphthyl- or 4-substituted phenyl)oxy)methyl)-4- (disubstituted amino)methoxy)benzene (IX).

System (Packard Instrument Company, 800 Research Parkway, Meriden, CT 06450), in which the robot first dilutes a standard 50 millimolar DMSO solution of candidate insecticide with a 1:1 water/acetone solution (V/V) in a ratio of 1:7 stock solution to water/acetone. The robot subsequently pipettes 40 microliters of the so- prepared solution onto the surface of the diet in each of three wells in the 24 multi- well plate. The process is repeated with solutions of seven other candidate insecticides. Once treated, the contents of the multi-well plate are allowed to dry, } leaving 0.25 millimoles of candidate insecticide on the surface of the diet, or a concentration of 0.25 millimolar. Appropriate untreated controls containing only , DMSO on the diet surface are also included in this test.
For evaluations of the insecticidal activity of a candidate insecticide at varying rates of application, the test is established as described above using sub-
multiples of the standard 50 millimolar DMSO solution of candidate insecticide. . For example, the standard 50 millimolar solution is diluted by the robot with
DMSO to give 5, 0.5, 0.05, 0.005, 0.0005 millimolar, or more dilute solutions of : the candidate insecticide. In these evaluations there are six replicates of each rate of application placed on the surface of the diet in the 24 multi-well plate, for a total of four rates of application of candidate insecticide in each plate.
In each well of the test plate is placed one second instar tobacco budworm larvea, each weighing approximately five milligrams. After the larvae are placed in each well, the plate is sealed with clear polyfilm adhesive taupe. The tape over each well is perforated to ensure an adequate air supply. The plates are then held in a growth chamber at 25 °C and 60% relative humidity for five days (light 14 hours/day).
After the five-day exposure period insecticidal activity for each rate of application of candidate insecticide is assessed as percent inhibition of insect weight relative to the weight of insects from untreated controls, and percent mortality when compared to the total number of insects infested.
The compounds of the present invention were active in the diet test against the tobacco budworm. Over fifteen of the compounds listed in Table 1 exhibited precent growth inhibition values of 70% or greater. Compounds 224, 353, 354, 355,357,364, 366,367, 368369, 372, and 373-379 exhibited percent growth inhibition values of 80% or greater. Table 3 gives the insecticidal activity data for compounds tested in the diet test.
For insecticidal application, the active compounds are formulated into insecticidal compositions by admixture in insecticidally effective amount with adjuvants and carriers normally employed in the art for facilitating the dispersion of active ingredients for the particular utility desired, recognizing the fact that the formulation and mode of application of a toxicant may affect the activity of the . material in a given application. Thus, for agricultural use the present insecticidal compounds may be formulated as granules of relatively large particle size, as water-soluble or water-dispersible granules, as powdery dusts, as wettable powders, as emulsifiable concentrates, as solutions, or as any of several other . known types of formulations, depending on the desired mode of application.
These insecticidal compositions may be applied either as water-diluted ’ sprays, or dusts, or granules to the areas in which insect control is desired. These formulations may contain as little as 0.1%, 0.2% or 0.5% to as much as 95% or more by weight of active ingredient.
Dusts are free flowing admixtures of the active ingredients with finely divided solids such as talc, natural clays, kieselguhr, flours such as walnut shell and cottonseed flours, and othcr organic and inorganic solids which act as dispersants and carriers for the toxicant; these finely divided solids have an average particle size of less than about 50 microns. A typical dust formulation useful herein is one containing 1.0 part or less of the insecticidal compound and 99.0 parts of talc.
Wettable powders are in the form of finely divided particles which disperse readily in water or other dispersant. The wettable powder is ultimately applied to the locus where insect control is desired either as a dry dust or as an emulsion in water or other liquid. Typical carriers for wettable powders include Fuller's earth, kaolin clays, silicas, and other highly absorbent, readily wet, inorganic diluents.
Wettable powders normally are prepared to contain about 5-80% of active ingredient, depending on the absorbency of the carrier, and usually also contain a small amount of a wetting, dispersing, or emulsifying agent to facilitate dispersion.
For example, a useful wettable powder formulation contains 80.8 parts of the insecticidal compound, 17.9 parts of Palmetto clay, and 1.0 part of sodium lignosulfonate and 0.3 part of sulfonated aliphatic polyester as wetting agents. By way of illustration, compound 223 was formulated as a 25% wettable powder (25%
WP) as follows:
) ~~ COMPONENT AMOUNT (wtwt%)
Compound 223 901% pure) 275% , Diluent 5.0%
Wetting Agent 1.0%
Dispersing Agent 16.0%
UV Stabilizer 0.5%
Carrier/Diluent 50.0%
Other useful formulations for insecticidal applications are emulsifiable concentrates (ECs) which are homogeneous liquid compositions dispersible in water or other dispersant, and may consist entirely of the insecticidal compound and a liquid or solid emulsifying agent, or may also contain a liquid carrier, such as
Xylene, heavy aromatic naphthas, isophorone, or other non-volatile organic solvent.
For insecticidal application these concentrates are dispersed in water or other liquid carrier, and normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated. The percentage by weight of the essential active ingredient may vary according to the manner in which the composition is to be applied, but in general comprises 0.5 to 95% of active ingredient by weight of the insecticidal composition.
Flowable formulations are similar to ECs except that the active ingredient is suspended in a liquid carrier, generally water. Flowables, like ECs, may include a small amount of a surfactant, and contain active ingredient in the range of 0.5 to 95%, frequently from 10 to 50%, by weight of the composition. For application, flowables may be diluted in water or other liquid vehicle, and are normally applied as a spray to the area to be treated. ] Typical wetting, dispersing, or emulsifying agents used in agricultural formulations include, but are not limited to, the alkyl and alkylaryl sulfonates and - sulfates and their sodium salts; alkylaryl polyether alcohols; sulfated higher alcohols; polyethylene oxides; sulfonated animal and vegetable oils; sulfonated petroleum oils; fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols and the ethylene oxide addition products of such esters; and the addition product of long-chain mercaptans . and ethylene oxide. Many other types of useful surface-active agents are available in commerce. The surface-active agents, when used, normally comprise from 1 to 0 15% by weight of the composition.
Other useful formulations include suspensions of the active ingredient in a relatively non-volatile solvent such as water, com oil, kerosene, propylene glycol, or other suitable solvents.
Still other useful formulations for insecticidal applications include simple solutions of the active ingredient in a solvent in which it is completely soluble at the desired concentration, such as acetone, alkylated naphthalenes, xylene, or other organic solvents. Granular formulations, wherein the toxicant is carried on : relatively coarse particles, are of particular utility for aerial distribution or for penetration of cover crop canopy. Pressurized sprays, typically aerosols wherein the active ingredient is dispersed in finely divided form as a result of vaporization of a low boiling dispersant solvent carrier, such as carbon dioxide, propane, or butane, may also be used. Water-soluble or water-dispersible granules are also useful formulations for insecticidal application of the present compounds. Such granular formulations are free-flowing, non-dusty, and readily water-soluble or - water-miscible. The soluble or dispersible granular formulations described in U.S.
Pat. No. 3,920,442 are useful herein with the present insecticidal compounds. In use by the farmer on the field, the granular formulations, emulsifiable concentrates, flowable concentrates, solutions, etc., may be diluted with water to give a concentration of active ingredient in the range of say 0. 1% or 0.2% to 1.5% or 2%.
The active insecticidal compounds of this invention may be formulated and/or applied with other insecticides, fungicides, nematicides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers, or other agricultural chemicals. In using an active compound of this invention, whether formulated alone or with other agricultural chemicals, to - control insects, an effective amount and concentration of the active compound is applied to the locus where control is desired. The locus may be, e.g., the insects themselves, plants upon which the insects feed, or the insect habitat. When the locus is the soil, e.g., soil in which agricultural crops have been or will be planted, . the composition of the active compound may be applied to and optionally incorporated into the soil. For most applications the effective amount may be as ’ low as, e.g. about 10 to 500 g/ha, preferably about 100 to 250 g/ha.

FOOTNOTES
1 The rate of application is expressed as the negative log of the molar concentration of the test compound in the diet. 2 percent growth inhibition is derived from the total weight of the insects (IW) at each rate of application in the test relative to the total weight of insects in an untreated control, . % Gr. Inh. = [IW (control) - I (test)/IW (control)] x 100. 3 Percent mortality is derived from the number of dead insects (TD) relative to the total number of insects (TI) used in the test, % Mortality = TD/TI x 100
