Abstract: Some new phosphinic acid derivatives of aminothio methylcarbamates have been synthesized and tested as pesticides. The new compounds are active against insects, mites, and nematodes. The N-[(phosphinyl)amino]thio- and N-[(phosphinothioyl)amino]thio- methylcarbamates are readily prepared by the general procedure of reacting a phosphinic acid amide with sulfur dichloride so as to obtain the corresponding N-(chlorothio)phosphinic acid amide which reactant will react with a methylcarbamate so as to produce the corresponding object compounds, the N-[(phosphinothioyl)amino]thio- methylcarbamates of this invention. Various formulations for pesticidal use are described along with appropriate rates of application.

Abstract: 5'-Esters of ara-cytidine (1-.beta.-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine) are prepared by reacting ara-cytidine with .beta.,.beta.,.beta.-trihaloethoxycarbonyl halide or other protective agency to form a protective amido group on the primary amino nitrogen of ara-cytidine and then reacting the thus-protected compound with a reagent reactive with the 5'-O-hydroxyl group, e.g., an acylating agent, to form the 5'-O-derivative. The .beta.,.beta.,.beta.-trihaloethoxycarbonyl or other protective group is then removed. Alternately, the primary amino group of ara-cytidine can be protected from acylation by protonation. The 5'-O-derivatives in their free base of salt form are characterized in that they display the property of sustained release of the compound, ara-cytidine, when administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously.

Abstract: Certain alkanoyl chloride phenylhydrazones have been found to be active against insects and mites, and also active as herbicides. The phenylhydrazone ring can be substituted. Suitable substituent groups are halogen atoms, the nitro group, the trifluoromethyl group, and alkyl groups of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, inclusive. The compounds are prepared by reacting an alkanoic acid phenylhy-drazide with phosphorus pentachloride to obtain an alkanoyl chloride (dichlorophosphinyl)phenylhydrazone intermediate that is reacted with phenol to produce the desired alkanoyl chloride phenylhydrazone. Certain compounds can be prepared by direct chlorination of an alkanaldehyde phenylhydrazone. Some of the compounds are novel. Methods of use and compositions are described.
