This invention provides compounds having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R and R' are the same or different C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 n-alkyl and R' is C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 branched alkyl. It also provides for a method of corn rootworm control with such compounds.

O-Alkyl-S-alkyl-S-branched alkylphosphorodithioate soil insecticides

There are provided herbicidal 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoyl derivatives of imino-dithiolanes.

5-[2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoyl derivatives of

There are provided N(carboxymethyl-N-(phosphonomethyl)-5-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethyl phenoxy)-2-nitrobenzamide and salts thereof.

N(Carboxymethyl-N-(phosphonomethyl)-5-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethyl

Formamides are catalysts for the reaction between phosphorus halides and alkanethiols, phenols, or thiophenols. As is described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,955,803, the phosphite and thiophosphite esters produced in the reaction are plant defoliants.

Formamide catalysts for reacting phosphorus halides with thiols

A composition comprising a pesticidal organothiophosphorus compound and a clay carrier in combination with a mixture of an alkylene glycol and an acid thereby providing compositions of high storage stability; said composition being useful, among other pesticidal control, for highly effective control of corn rootworm.

Stabilized organothiophosphorus formulations

N-substituted carbamates derived from 5,8-dihydro-5,8-methano-1-naphthol and substituted derivatives therefor are new compounds having insecticidal activity. These tricyclic phenols are prepared, for example, by Diels-Alder condensation of cyclopentadiene with 2-cyclohexen-1-one (or substituted derivative), followed by dehydrogenation.
