Process for the manufacture of pesticidal 1-(alkoxymethyl)pyrrole compounds.

摘要

There is provided a single step procedure for the manufacture of 1-(alkoxymethyl)pyrrole compounds by reacting the appropriate pyrrole precursor with a dihalomethane reagent in the presence of an alkali metal alkoxide. The 1-(alkoxymethyl)pyrrole compounds are useful as molluscicidal, insecticidal, acaricidal and nematocidal agents.
