Abstract: The present invention relates to pesticides containing carbamic acid ester derivatives of the formula (I), ##STR1## to pesticide compositions containing these compounds and to a process for their preparation.In the general formulaR.sup.1 is alkyl of from one to four carbon atoms;R.sup.2 represents alkyl of from one to four carbon atoms or (when X is alkyl of from one to twelve carbon atoms) alkyl of from one to twelve carbon atoms;R.sup.3 is H, methyl or ethyl;R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are, independently from each other, H or halogen atoms;n=0, 1 or 2;X represents alkyl of from one to twelve carbon atoms or an 4-aryloxyphenoxyalkyl group of formula (II). ##STR2## The pesticide of the invention can be used for controlling insects and mites.

Abstract: The invention relates to new compounds of the general formula (I), ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or a lower alkoxy group andZ.sup.1 is hydrogen, orR.sup.1 and Z.sup.1 form together a double bond,Z.sup.2 is hydrogen andB is hydroxy, orZ.sup.2 and B form together a double bond,Z.sup.3 and Z.sup.4 each stand for hydrogen or they form together an ethylene group, orZ.sup.4 and D form together a double bond,C is oxygen atom or a lower alkoxy group,D is a valence bond if C stands for oxygen, or otherwise D forms a double bond together with Z.sup.4 or Z.sup.5,Z.sup.5 forms a double bond together with D or represents hydrogen, andR.sup.2 is a group of the general formula --COOR.sup.3, wherein R.sup.3 is lower alkyl, orZ.sup.5 and R.sup.2 form together a 1-oxo-2-oxa-tetramethylene group, with the proviso that if Z.sup.3 and Z.sup.4 form together an ethylene group, R.sup.2 may stand only for a --COOR.sup.3 group,insecticidal compositions containing them, as well as to a process for their preparation.
