Abstract

Disclosed are compounds of Formula 1, including all geometric and stereoisomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof, wherein J is a phenyl optionally substituted with one to four substituents independently selected from R5; or J is a heterocyclic ring selected from the group consisting of J-1 to J-8; R4 is C4-C12 alkylcycloalkyl, C5-C12 alkenylcycloalkyl, C5-C12 alkynylcycloalkyl, C4-C12 cycloalkylalkyl, C5-C12 cycloalkylalkenyl, C5-C12 cycloalkylalkynyl, C4-C12 cycloalkenylalkyl or C4-C12 alkylcycloalkenyl; each optionally substituted with one to six substituents selected from CH3 and halogen; or R4 is C3-C5 oxiranylalkyl, C3-C5 thiiranylalkyl, C4-C6 oxetanylalkyl, C4-C6 thietanylalkyl, 3-oxetanyl or 3-thietanyl, each optionally substituted with one to five substituents independently selected from C1-C3 alkyl, C1-C3 haloalkyl, halogen, CN, C2-C4 alkoxycarbonyl and C2-C4 haloalkoxycarbonyl; or R4 is C3-C5 aziridinylalkyl, C4-C6 azetidinylalkyl or 3-azetidinyl, each with R10 attached to the nitrogen atom, and optionally substituted on carbon atoms with one to five substituents independently selected from Cl-C3 alkyl, C1-C3 haloalkyl, halogen, CN, C2-C4 alkoxycarbonyl and C2-C4 haloalkoxycarbonyl; and Rla. R1b, R2, R3 and R5 are as defined in the disclosure. Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula 1 and methods for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound or a composition of the invention.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to certain anthranilamides, N-oxides, salts and compositions thereof suitable for agronomic and non-agronomic use, and methods of their use for controlling invertebrate pests such as arthropods in agronomic and non-agronomic environments . Background technique [0002] Control of invertebrate pests is extremely important to achieve high crop efficiency. Invertebrate pest damage to growing and stored crops can cause significant reductions in productivity and thus increased costs to consumers. Control of invertebrate pests is also important in forestry, greenhouse crops, ornamental plants, nursery crops, stored food and fiber products, livestock, household products, turf, wood products, public health and animal health. Many products for these purposes are commercially available, but there is still a need for new compounds that are more effective, more economical, less toxic, safer for the environment or have a different...
