Abstract: Substituted-1-arylpyrrole compounds of general formula (I) below, are useful as pesticides, in particular for the control of insects, arachnids, and nematodes. Processes to make the compounds and intermediates used for their preparation are described. Additionally, compositions containing the compounds and methods of use therefore are provided. Preferred compounds are the compounds of general formula (I) ##STR1## wherein typically preferred substituents are: X is halogen or a group R.sup.5 S(O).sub.n, in which n is 0, 1, or 2 and R.sup.5 is CH.sub.3, CF.sub.3, CCl.sub.3, CF.sub.2 Cl, CFCl.sub.2, CF.sub.2 Br, CHF.sub.2, CHCl.sub.2 or CHClF;R.sup.1 is H, F, Cl, Br, OCH.sub.3, SCH.sub.3, or CH.sub.3 optionally substituted;R.sup.2 is CN;R.sup.3 is H, F, Cl, Br, OCH.sub.3, or CH.sub.3 optionally substituted;Y is CF.sub.3, CF.sub.3 O, H, F, Cl or Br;X.sup.1 and X.sup.4 are individually H, F, Cl, Br, CH.sub.3, OCH.sub.3 or SCH.sub.3 ; andX.sup.2 and X.sup.3 are each H.

Abstract: The invention describes novel 1-arylimidazoles of formula (I) ##STR1## wherein typically preferred substituents are: X is S(O).sub.n R.sub.1, in which R.sub.1 is an alkyl group, preferably a methyl group, which is fully substituted by halogen atoms, and n is 0, 1 and 2;Y is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkylideneimino, alkylsulfenyl, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl;Z is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, preferably methyl; andR.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are individually hydrogen, halogen or an unsubstituted or halo-substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkylsulfenyl, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl.The invention further describes intermediates and processes to make the compounds, compositions of the compounds, and methods of use of the compounds for the control of arthropods (especially mites, aphids or insects), nematodes, helminths, or protozoa.
