Novel pyrazole amide and an insecticidal and miticidal composition containing the pyrazole amide as an active ingredient are described. The pyrazole amide according to the present invention shows excellent insecticidal and miticidal activities.

Pyrazole amides and insecticide and miticide containing them as active

Disclosed herein are pyrazole derivatives which are represented by the following formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group or a benzyl group; R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; X represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; R.sup.2 may combine with X to form ##STR2## wherein R.sup.5 represents a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl group; R.sup.3 represents a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; R.sup.4 s independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylthio group, a trifluoromethyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 haloalkoxy group, a phenyl group, an alkyl-substituted phenyl group or ##STR3## wherein Y represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, R.sup.6 s independently represent a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group, a halogen atom, a nitro group, a cyano group or a trifluoromethyl group and n represents 1 or 2, adjacent R.sup.4 s being able to combine together to form ##STR4## wherein R.sup.7 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; l represents 0 or 1; and m represents 1, 2, or 3. The pyrazole derivatives of the formula (I) show a high activity suitable for active ingredient of insecticidal and miticidal composition as well as fungicidal composition.

Pyrazole derivatives and insecticidal fungicidal and miticidal

A novel pyrazole derivative and an insecticidal or miticidal composition containing the derivative as the effective ingredient are disclosed. The pyrazole derivative of the present invention has an excellent controlling effect also against harmful insects and mites exhibiting resistance to conventional insecticides and does not disturb the ecosystem since it is less toxic and less residual.
