invention, compounds represented by the formula below are known.


In the formula, X represents -O-, -N(R3)-, -S-, or the like and R1 represents a
substituted saturated heterocyclic group or the like. As a representative of such
compounds, the compound represented by the formula below is known (refer to Patent
document 1).

Moreover, the compounds represented by the formula below are known.

In the formula, X represents -CH- or the like; Z represents a bonding or the like;
R3 represents an optionally substituted aryl or an optionally substituted heteroaryl; and R7
and R8 represent -(CH2)s- or the like together. However, when R7 and R8 represent

(1) of the present invention come together to form a saturated ring. These isomers are

which belong to the order of Thysanoptera, and pests which belong to the order of
Coleoptera, and particularly preferably Acarina.
Moreover, drugs which are also effective for pests or Acarnia that are of
resistant lineage are desired because in recent years, resistance to organophosphorus
pesticides, carbamate pesticides, or acaricides developed among many pests such as
Plutella xylostella, Delphacidae, Deltocephalidae, and Aphididae has caused problems
because of insufficient effects of these drugs. The compounds of the present invention
are drugs having excellent insecticidal and acaricidal effects not only on those of
sensitive lineages but also on pests of lineages resistant to organophosphorus pesticides,
carbamate pesticides, and pyrethroid pesticides, and on Acarnia of lineages resistant to
acaricides.
Additionally, the compounds of the present invention are drugs that show less
herbicide injuries, have lower toxicity to fish and warm-blooded animals, and higher
safety.
The compounds of the present invention can also be used as an antifoulant to
prevent aquatic organisms attaching to objects which contact water such as ship bottoms
(or hulls, alternatively) and fishing nets.
Some of the compounds of the present invention exhibit germicidal activities,
herbicidal activities, or plant-growth regulating activities. Moreover, some
intermediates of the compounds of the present invention, which are represented by the
formula (1) or (3), exhibit insecticidal/acaricidal activities.
The agents for pest control of the present invention have the compounds of the
present invention, which are represented by the formula (1) or (3), as active ingredients

and the agents can be used either singularly or by mixing two or more thereof. The
compounds of the present invention can be used as they are without adding any other
components. However, when used practically, they are normally further mixed with
solid, liquid, or gaseous carriers, or are impregnated in substrates such as porous ceramic
plates and nonwoven fabrics, and by adding surfactants and/or other adjuvants where
necessary, used as formulations in the form which general agrochemicals may adopt, that
is, wettable powder, granule, dusting powder, emulsion, water-soluble powder,
suspending agent, granulated wettable powder, floable, aerosol, transpiration agent by
heating, fumigant, poison bait, microcapsule, or the like.
As additives and carriers, vegetable powders such as soy flour and wheat flour;
fine mineral powder such as diatomaceous earth, apatite, gypsum, talc, bentonite,
pyrophyllite, and clay; and organic and inorganic compounds such as sodium benzoate,
urea, and sodium sulfate are used when solid formulation is required. When liquid form
of formulation is required, petroleum fractions such as kerosene, xylene, and solvent
naphtha, and cyclohexane, cyclohexanone, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide,
alcohol, acetone, methyl isobutyl ketone, mineral oil, vegetable oil, water, or the like are
used as a solvent. As gaseous carriers used in propellant, butane (gas), LPG, dimethyl
ether, and carbon dioxide gas can be used.
As a substrate of poison bait, bait components such as grain powder, vegetable
oil, sugar, and crystalline cellulose; antioxidants such as dibutylhydroxytoluene and
nordihydroguaiaretic acid; preservatives such as dehydroacetic acid; agents for
preventing accidental ingestion by children or pets such as capsicum powder; and
pest-insect attracting scents such as cheese scents and onion scents can be used.
Additionally, in order to achieve homogenous and stable forms in these
formulations, it is also possible to add surfactants if necessary. Although surfactants are

not particularly limited, examples thereof include, for instance, nonionic surfactants such
as alkyl ether where polyoxyethylene is added, higher fatty acid ester where
polyoxyethylene is added, sorbitan higher fatty acid ester where polyoxyethylene is
added, and tristyryl phenyl ether where polyoxyethylene is added; sulfate ester salt of
alkyl phenyl ether where polyoxyethylene is added, alkyl naphthalene sulfonate salt,
polycarboxylate salt, lignin sulfonate salt, formaldehyde condensate of alkyl naphthalene
sulfonate, and isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer.
When the compounds of the present invention are used as agents for pest control
in agriculture, the amount of active ingredient in the formulation is 0.01 to 90 weight%
and particularly preferably 0.05 to 85 weight% and wettable powder, emulsion,
suspending agents, floable agents, water-soluble powder, granulated wettable powder
which are diluted to predetermined concentrations with water, and dusting powder and
granules as they are, can be applied onto plants or soil.
In addition, when the compounds of the present invention are used as agents for
pest control in quarantine purposes, emulsion, wettable powder, floable agents, and the
like are applied by diluting to predetermined concentrations with water and oil solution,
and aerosol, poison bait, anti-acarid sheet, and the like can be applied as they are.
When the compounds of the present invention are used as agents for pest control
in controlling ectoparasites of livestock such as cattle and pigs or of pets such as dogs
and cats, formulations using the compounds of the present invention are used in known
methods in the field of veterinary medicine. As such methods, examples thereof
include a method for administering in forms such as tablets, capsules, immersion liquid,
feedstuff mix, suppository, and injection (intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous,
intraperitoneal, or the like) when systemic control is required and a method for
administering by spraying, pouring-on, or spotting-on oily- or aqueous liquid

formulations or a method for mounting objects, which are resin formulations shaped into
collars, ear tags, or the like, when non-systemic control is required. In this case, the
proportion can be normally used where 0.01 to 1000 mg of the compounds of the present
invention are applied per 1 kg of host animal.
It should be noted that although the compounds of the present invention are,
needless to say, sufficiently effective even when used solely, they can also be used by
mixing or combining with one or more of other agents for pest control, germicides,
insecticides/acaricides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, synergists, fertilizers, soil
conditioners, animal feed, or the like.
